Žijeme ve světě, kde technologie umožňují neustálou digitální komunikaci a nabízí stale nové možnosti, jak navazovat a rozvíjet vztahy.

Novinářka New York Times Kate Murphy chce vědět, co se stalo. Murphy v této fascinující a často vtipné knize vysvětluje, proč nenasloucháme, co to s námi dělá a jak můžeme tento trend zvrátit. Lidsky podává psychologickou, neurovědeckou a sociologickou diskuzi na téma naslouchání a zároveň nás seznamuje se skutečnými odborníky (včetně agenta CIA, moderátorky diskuzní skupiny, barmana, rozhlasového producenta a špičkového prodavače nábytku).

The Reynolds Pamphlet (1797) is an essay by Alexander Hamilton. Written while Hamilton was serving as Secretary of the Treasury, the Pamphlet was intended as a defense against accusations that Hamilton had conspired with James Reynolds to misuse funds meant to cover unpaid wages to Revolutionary War veterans. Admitting to an affair with Maria, Reynolds’ wife, Hamilton claims that the accusation is nothing more than an attempt at blackmail. This revelation not only endangered Hamilton’s career as a public figure, but constituted perhaps the earliest sex scandal in American history. “The bare perusal of the letters from Reynolds and his wife is sufficient to convince my greatest enemy that there is nothing worse in the affair than an irregular and indelicate amour. For this, I bow to the just censure which it merits. I have paid pretty severely for the folly and can never recollect it without disgust and self condemnation. It might seem affectation to say more.”Accused of corruption in his role as Secretary of the Treasury, Alexander Hamilton was forced to confess his adultery, bringing shame to himself as a married man and supposedly honorable public figure, yet saving his political career in the process. Looking back on his affair with Maria Reynolds from a distance of five years, Hamilton expresses regret for his foolishness, yet wholeheartedly denies her husband’s accusation that he had been involved in his scheme to misuse government funds. Perhaps the first sex scandal in American history, the Reynolds affair sent shockwaves throughout the burgeoning republic, leaving many to question the motives and character of their leaders for the first time, though certainly not the last.

My husband and I had two children and lost them both: Vincent in 2017, at sixteen, James in 2024, at nineteen. Both chose suicide, and both died not far from home.''There is no good way to say this – because words fall short. It takes only an instant for death to become fact, ''a single point in a timeline''. Living now on this single point, Li turns to thinking and reasoning and searching for words that might hold a place for James. Li does what she can: including not just writing but gardening, reading Camus and Wittgenstein, learning the piano, and living thinkingly alongside death.This is a book for James, but it is not a book about grieving. As Li writes, ''The verb that does not die is to be. Vincent was and is and will always be Vincent. James was and is and will always be James. We were and are and will always be their parents. There is no now and then, now and later, only, now and now and now and now.'' Things in Nature Merely Grow is a testament to Li’s indomitable spirit.As seen in the New Yorker, Vanity Fair, LA Times, TIME, and the Paris Review.

Twenty-five years since acid house and Ecstasy revolutionized pop culture, Simon Reynolds''s landmark rave history Energy Flash has been expanded and updated to cover twenty-first-century developments like dubstep and EDM''s recent takeover of America.Author of the acclaimed postpunk history Rip It Up and Start Again, Reynolds became a rave convert in the early nineties. He experienced first-hand the scene''s drug-fuelled rollercoaster of euphoria and darkness. He danced at Castlemorton, the illegal 1992 mega-rave that sent spasms of anxiety through the Establishment and resulted in the Criminal Justice and Public Order Bill. Mixing personal reminiscence with interviews and ultra-vivid description of the underground''s ever-changing sounds as they mutated under the influence of MDMA and other drugs, Energy Flash is the definitive chronicle of electronic dance culture.From rave''s origins in Chicago house and Detroit techno, through Ibiza, Madchester and the anarchic free-party scene, to the pirate-radio underworld of jungle and UK garage, and then onto 2000s-shaping genres such as grime and electro, Reynolds documents with authority, insight and infectious enthusiasm the tracks, DJs, producers and promoters that soundtracked a generation. A substantial final section, added for this new Faber edition, brings the book right up to date, covering dubstep''s explosive rise to mass popularity and America''s recent but ardent embrace of rave. Packed with interviews with participants and charismatic innovators like Derrick May, Goldie and Aphex Twin, Energy Flash is an infinitely entertaining and essential history of dance music.

Simon Reynolds''s first book in eight years is a celebration of music that feels like a taste of tomorrow. Sounds that prefigure pop music''s future - the vanguard genres and heroic innovators whose discoveries eventually get accepted by the wider mass audience. But it''s also about the way music can stir anticipation for a thrillingly transformed world just around the corner: a future that might be utopian or dystopian, but at least will be radically changed and exhilaratingly other. Starting with an extraordinary chapter on Giorgio Moroder and Donna Summer, taking in illuminating profiles of Ryuichi Sakamoto, Boards of Canada, Burial, and Daft Punk, and arguing for Auto-Tune as the defining sound of 21st century pop, Futuromania shapes over two-dozen essays and interviews into a chronological narrative of machine-music from the 1970s to now. Reynolds explores the interface between pop music and science fiction''s utopian dreams and nightmare visions, always emphasising the quirky human individuals abusing the technology as much as the era-defining advances in electronic hardware and digital software. A tapestry of the scenes and subcultures that have proliferated in that febrile, sexy and contested space where man meets machine, Futuromania is an enthused listening guide that will propel readers towards adventures in sound. There is a lifetime of electronic listening here.

A stunning visual autobiography of two crazy-talented besties, bestselling and award-winning author Jason Reynolds and painter Jason Griffin, who could never be who they are singularly if they weren’t who they were together.Once upon a time in America, there were two Jasons. Jason Reynolds and Jason Griffin. One a poet. One an artist. One Black. One white. Two voices. One journey in mind: to move to New York, the city of dreams, to make their own dreams come true. Willing to have a life not un-hard, so long as it wasn’t unhappy. Willing to let the city swallow them whole, so long as it gives them their chance. They had each other. “What if painting was a sin, and the poetry became taboo. And no one ever clapped for me again. My question is, would you?” They clapped. Oh, they clapped. And aren’t we glad?

Mack Reynolds' novel "Mercenary" is a science fiction novel. This thought-provoking tale takes place in a future society dominated by political beliefs, power struggles, and international interactions. Miles Gilbert, the protagonist, is a professional mercenary, a soldier for hire in a world where nations no longer fight traditional wars but instead hire mercenaries to fight on their behalf. Gilbert is a multifaceted figure who navigates a morally confusing environment where loyalty, politics, and personal ethics collide. As the novel progresses, Gilbert becomes engaged in a succession of worldwide wars, each of which is motivated by the interests of strong nations and companies. His experiences shed insight on the complex mechanics of a society where conflict has become a profitable business. Mack Reynolds deftly employs "Mercenary" as a vehicle for exploring themes of war, diplomacy, and the ethics of violence. The story explores concerns about the role of mercenaries in influencing nations' fates, as well as the blurred lines between patriotism and profit. "Mercenary" is a politically charged and intellectually fascinating work of science fiction that asks readers to consider the implications of a society in which violence is outsourced to private warriors.

Kniha zkoumá divokou dobrodružnou hudbu vytvořenou po punku. Renomovaný hudební novinář Simon Reynolds oslavuje futuristického ducha Joy Division, Gang of Four, Talking Heads či Devo a dalších kapel, který vyústil v nekonečné inovace v hudbě, textech, vystoupení a stylu a pokračoval počátkem osmdesátých let videem - například důvtipným synth popem Human League, Depeche Mode či Soft Cell, jejichž úspěch se shodoval s nástupem MTV. Celou knihou se jako červená nit vine téma návaznosti na v té době už utichlou punkovou explozi. Nejde ale ani tak o odkaz punku jako hudebního stylu, mnohem důležitější je jeho nastolený étos, snaha vymanit se přístupem DIY z osidel zavedeného hudebního byznysu - po hudební stránce šlo spíše o to, kam po odeznění punku dál. V jednu chvíli jsme uvažovali o nahrazení výrazu post punk výrazem nová vlna, českým pamětníkům přece jen důvěrněji známým. Je pravda, že u nás se toto sousloví používalo dlouhou dobu a výraz post punk se ujal později než jinde. Záhy jsme však narazili na dvě významná ale. Zaprvé jen těžko můžeme za novou vlnu označit industriální kapely nebo např. Residents či Birthday Party. A co newyorské kapely, které se výrazem no wave proti new wave přímo vyhrazovaly? Mnohem víc se vžila představa novovlňáků jako fešných mládenců s dlouhými patkami a očními stíny, důležitě se tvářícími za svými synťáky (pravda, v druhé části knihy jich pár najdeme). Zadruhé se dnes běžně hovoří o postpunkovém revivalu - jen stěží by někdo použil výraz novovlnný revival. A není tohle všechno koneckonců jedno? Je jen na vás, jestli držíte v ruce knihu, mapující historii post punku, nebo raději nové vlny.

Tajemná zpráva od hvězdy vzdálené více než sedmdesát světelných let svede dohromady cesty Gomy a Kanua, potomků slavné rodiny Akinyů, která kdysi pomohla lidem proniknout do kosmických dálav. Soustava Gliese 163, odkud záhadný signál přišel, však skrývá mnohem víc překvapení, než se mohlo na první pohled zdát. Opravdu sem příslušníky lidského rodu přivedla odvěká touha najít odpovědi na velké otázky vesmíru, nebo jsou jenom pěšáky v gigantické šachové partii rozehrané civilizacemi tak starými a mocnými, že by původní obyvatelé planety Země byli pod jejich rozlišovací schopnost - kdyby neměli pár cenných vlastností?

Dobře komunikovat znamená dobře pečovat. Kniha představuje základy komunikace při péči o pacienty, ale zaměřuje se zejména na osoby s demencí. Důležité je, aby se člověk s demencí cítil respektovaný a oceňovaný (hovoří se o tzv. validaci). Kniha popisuje, jakou roli má komunikace v různých modelech péče. Najdeme zde řadu užitečných tipů – např. ohledně nepoužívání otázek začínajících na proč, mluvení v první osobě a v kladných větách, v dialektu nemocného, pomalu a klidně, ve stejné výšce očí, autenticky, se zahrnutím pacientových neverbálních signálů. Cílem je komunikovat citlivě, eticky a předcházet nedorozumění a náročným situacím. Kniha, která je doprovázená příklady z praxe, je vhodná pro profesionály, kteří se zabývají léčbou osob s demencí, i pro všechny ty, kdo o ně pečují v pracovním i osobním kontextu.
