Dogs and Their Humans - Noel Fitzpatrick

Every day in my consulting room with a dog at my feet I have seen the very best that humanity has to offer and often in the very worst of circumstances.No matter where a family comes from, whether prince or pauper, when they come through the door, every single person has three things in common. One, they love their dogs beyond anything that can be described in words. Two, they will do whatever it takes to help their friend.And three, they have all come to me for one thing and one thing only: hope. Dogs don’t care where we come from, and neither do I. My room is the great leveller. From the sublime to the ridiculous, Professor Noel Fitzpatrick has seen it all in his veterinary practice. Dogs (and their humans): stories of healing and hope from the Supervet’s surgery is a funny, uplifting and at times heartbreaking celebration of our connection with our loyal canine friends. Dogs allow us to be the very best we can be.

Roe Deer and their Antlers - Pavel Scherer

This gripping book full of unique photos was published jointly by the author and Czech Publishing House Lesnická práce in Kostelec nad Černými lesy in 2009. Author´s profound knowledge and original approach make the book an outstanding achievement beyond any traditional literature dealing with roe deer. It intends to give comprehensive information on roe deer biology and ethology, and primarily to root out myths and dogmas that have been passed on from one generation of hunters to another. Besides bringing the latest information on roe deer biology, it also shows trickiness and pitfall often lying in wait for and wrongly affecting hunters in their daily activities. It focuses on the most frequently discussed topical issues of hunting. Besides other interesting topics the book also deals with the phenomenon of antlers (aiming at explaining how the complex vascular and nerve systems affect the growth of antlers - from growing through mineralisation until casting). Its value also lies, among others, in an extensive chapter on abnormalities in roe deer antlers and reasons for them. In 2010 the book was awarded Czech-Moravian Hunting Association Prize in the field of professional literature.

Humble Pie and Cold Turkey: English Expressions and Their Origins - Caroline Taggart

Humble Pie and Cold Turkey is an engaging historical exploration of the bizarre words and phrases that are sprinkled throughout the English Language. Designed to be easily accessible, this digestible book informs and entertains the budding linguist in equal measure. The huge variety of colourful phrases contained in the English language are notoriously varied and, often, notably odd. From blue-blooded (an invention of aristocratic Spaniards) to limelight (a way of lighting Victorian theatres), passing an exam with flying colours (an image from sailing ships) to winning hands down (from horse racing), the fascinating expressions that make up our language are explored in Humble Pie and Cold Turkey.In this highly entertaining book, language enthusiast and Sunday Times best-selling author Caroline Taggart browses through thousands of years of history to shed light on why we use the words and phrases we do. Arranged by themes including food, the household, childhood, romance and more, this intriguing book looks at the origins of our language from their historical context. For example, did you know that:If you rest on your laurels, you’re imitating a complacent Roman general?If you eavesdrop, you’re likely to get wet?If you’re taken aback, you should, strictly speaking, be a sailing ship?If you’re galvanized into action, you’re behaving like Frankenstein’s monster?Humble Pie and Cold Turkey will prompt you to question the downright bizarre idioms we use to express ourselves, and answer questions you may never have thought to ask. Including why turkeys need to be cold and how pies came to be humble.

Appearance Stripped Bare: Desire and the Object in the Work of Marcel Duchamp and Jeff Koons, Even - Gioni

The first book to explore two of the biggest names in modern and contemporary art side by side, Marcel Duchamp and Jeff Koons In the first half of the 20th century, Marcel Duchamp redefined what we consider art and what it means to be an artist. Many of his ideas return, transformed, in the work of Jeff Koons, born when Duchamp was 68 years old and whose own career lit up the art world of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. This is the first book to explore the affinities between these two highly influential artists, whose creative universes similarly question the function of objects and the allure of commodities. International art historians, writers, and curators contribute their expertise on topics such as each artist's persona, as well as reflecting on the influence of technology and sexuality on their work. The publication of this intriguing book coincides with an exhibition at the Museo Jumex in Mexico City, opening in May 2019.

Food and Development (Defekt) - E. M. Young

The relationship between food and development has always been controversial. Over the last thirty years, development in the north and south has failed to deliver people a decent diet. While some people have too little food and die as a consequence, some people have too much food and die from associated diseases.Furthermore, some methods of food production create social dislocation and deadly environments where biodiversity is eroded and pollution is rampant. While guaranteeing enough food for the world's inhabitants continues to be a serious challenge, new issues about food have emerged. Food and Development is a lively and lucidly written text which provides a clear and accessible introduction to these complex and diverse food related problems.It explores the continued prevalence of mass under nutrition in the developing world; acute food crises in some places associated with conflict; the emergence of over nutrition in the developing world and the vulnerability of the contemporary global food production system. The text identifies the major problems and analyzes factors at international, national and local scales to understand their continued prevalence. The book concludes by evaluating the potential of some oppositional forces to challenge the hegemony of the contemporary food system.This timely and original text will be invaluable to undergraduates interested in the challenges surrounding food and development. The text is richly filled with case studies from the Global North and South to illustrate the nature and extent of these urgent issues and their interrelated nature. Each chapter contains a range of features to assist undergraduate learning, including: learning objective, key concepts, summaries, discussion questions, further reading and websites, and follow up activities.

‘If you find the subject of food to be both vexing and transfixing, you’ll love What She Ate’ Elle Dorothy Wordsworth believed that feeding her poet brother, William, gooseberry tarts was her part to play in a literary movement. Cockney chef Rosa Lewis became a favourite of King Edward VII, who loved her signature dish of whole truffles boiled in Champagne. Eleanor Roosevelt dished up Eggs Mexican a concoction of rice, fried eggs, and bananas in the White House. Eva Braun treated herself to Champagne and cake in the bunker before killing herself, alongside Adolf Hitler. Barbara Pym's novels overflow with enjoyment of everyday meals of frozen fish fingers and Chablis in midcentury England. Cosmopolitan editor Helen Gurley Brown's idea of having it all meant having almost nothing on the plate except a supersized portion of diet gelatin. In the irresistible What She Ate, Laura Shapiro examines the plates, recipe books and shopping trolleys of these six extraordinary women, casting a new light on each of their lives revealing love and rage, desire and denial, need and pleasure.

Stopy / Traces (978-80-7641-048-0)

Kniha - autor Michal Škoda, 104 stran, česky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Stopy k bilanční výstavě Michala Škody (*1962) – umělce solitéra, kreslíře, sochaře, autora místně specifických instalací a kurátora s mezinárodní reputací, který je v jižních Čechách doma, vedou od specifického vnímání prostoru, architektury, krajiny a "místa pro člověka", přes uměleckou transformaci těchto podnětů do vysoko abstrahovaných uměleckých děl. Ty jsou jako stopy individuální tvorby zanechány pro komunikaci s diváky v prostoru Alšovy jihočeské galerie. Koncepce autorské výstavy rozkrývá některé základní myšlenky a podoby Škodovy dosavadní umělecké cesty, s průhledy do minulosti i do možné budoucnosti. Stopy jsou tu pozůstatky přítomnosti a následky událostí, průsečnice makro a mikro světů, šrámy po střetu vnějších tlaků a vnitřního pnutí, záznamy rytmů a rituálů každodennosti.

Rozpětí tvorby Jaromíra Čejky je však daleko širší a tuto šíři má monografie čtenářům představit alespoň v těchto předkládaných obrysech. Jeho kompozice nejsou jen interpretací skutečnosti, neboť jsou rovněž výsledkem recepce umělecky směrodatných fotografií a jedinečným uchopením všeho, čemu autor vtiskl podobu stop skutečnosti.

Lords of Uncreation - Adrian Tchaikovsky

Lords of Uncreation is the final high-octane instalment in the Final Architecture space opera trilogy. He's found a way to end their war, but will humanity survive to see it? Idris Telemmier has uncovered a secret that changes everything – the Architects’ greatest weakness.A shadowy Cartel scrambles to turn his discovery into a weapon against these alien destroyers of worlds. But between them and victory stands self-interest. The galaxy’s great powers would rather pursue their own agendas than stand together against this shared terror.Human and inhuman interests wrestle to control Idris’ discovery, as the galaxy erupts into a mutually destructive and self-defeating war. The other great obstacle to striking against their alien threat is Idris himself. He knows that the Architects, despite their power, are merely tools of a higher intelligence.Deep within unspace, where time moves differently, and reality isn’t quite what it seems, their masters are the true threat. Masters who are just becoming aware of humanity’s daring – and taking steps to exterminate this annoyance forever.
