Před dávnými časy narazila jedna nevinná žena na zlověstný artefakt: skříňku ve tvaru lebky. Otevřela ji… a vypustila do světa sedm smrtelných hříchů. O tisíce let později se světem začne plížit zlo – a do cesty se mu postaví armáda hrdinů. Nejmocnější z těchto hrdinů se shromáždí ve třech týmech, z nichž každý nese ve svém názvu slova „liga spravedlnosti“. Každý z těchto týmů má vlastní metody a motivy. Příměří, které mezi nimi panuje, je křehké, ale vydrželo. Až doteď. Ve světě se znovu objevila Pandořina skříňka a její vliv, jenž kazí lidi, se šíří jako nemoc. Vůči jejímu zlu není imunní dokonce ani Superman. Její moc může ovládnout pouze někdo s nejčistějším nebo nejtemnějším srdcem. Planetu Zemi prohledává trojice záhadných bytostí a pátrá po tajemstvích skříňky. Mezi třemi týmy složenými z největších hrdinů světa vypukne válka, která má rozhodnout o osudu nebezpečného artefaktu.

V PLAMENECH ZLA BUDOU UKOVÁNI NOVÍ HRDINOVÉ... Ultraman. Owlman. Superwoman. Tito bezohlední nájezdníci ze zpustošeného alternativního vesmíru dovedli tajný spolek našich pozemských superpadouchů k naprosté světové nadvládě. Každý z nich je pokrouceným obrazem jednoho z hrdinů uvržených do vězení, ze kterého není úniku. A každý z nich má vlastní skryté plány. V tom spočívá jediná naděje Ligy spravedlnosti. Zatímco tito brutální dobyvatelé válčí s démony vlastní minulosti, Vic Stone - až příliš lidský hrdina, jehož tělo se propojilo s dechberoucí technologií, což mu umožnilo stát se členem Ligy spravedlnosti známým jako Cyborg - musí konat. Protože je jediným členem Ligy, kterému se podařilo uniknout před Syndikátem, má jenom jeden pokus na poražení Sítě, počítačového viru s vlastním vědomím, jenž ukradl Vicovo robotické tělo a převzal kontrolu nad celosvětovou počítačovou sítí. Cyborg musí vyhledat ty nejméně pravděpodobné hrdiny: Kovové lidi, vrtošivou skupinu androidů, nad kterými je díky jejich osobnostem - a naprosto off-line operačním systémům - doslova nemožné převzít kontrolu. Jenomže to, co Zločinecký syndikát nedokáže kontrolovat, jednoduše zničí... Kniha Liga spravedlnosti: Věční hrdinové navazuje na události příběhu Věčné zlo a znovu spojuje hvězdného scenáristu Geoffa Johnse (VĚČNÉ ZLO) se dvěma z jeho nejlepších kreslířských spolupracovníků, Ivanem Reisem (AQUAMAN) a Dougem Mahnkem (GREEN LANTERN).

British Second World War tanks performed so badly that it is difficult to bring to mind any other British weapon of the period that provokes such a strong sense of failure. Unfortunately, many of the accusations appear to be true – British tanks were in many ways a disgrace. But why was Britain, the country that invented them, consistently unable to field tanks of the required quality or quantity throughout the conflict? This perceived failure has taken on the status of a myth, but, like all myths, it should not be accepted at face value – it should be questioned and analyzed. And that is what Dick Taylor does in this closely researched and absorbing study.He looks at the flaws in British financial policy, tank doctrine, design, production and development before and throughout the war years which often had fatal consequences for the crews who were sent to fight and to be ‘murdered’ in ‘mechanical abortions’. Their direct experience of the shortcomings of these machines is an important element of the story. He also considers how British tanks compared to those of the opposition and contrasts tank production for the army with the production of aircraft for the RAF during the same period.His clear-sighted account goes on to explain how, later in the conflict, British tank design improved to the point where their tanks were in many ways superior to those of the Americans and Germans and how they then produced the Centurion which was one of the best main battle tanks of the post-war era.

What must she think right now?

In The World Before Us, he explains the scientific and technological advancements - in radiocarbon dating and ancient DNA, for example - that allowed each of these discoveries to be made, enabling us to be more accurate in our predictions about not just how long ago these other humans lived, but how they lived, interacted and live on in our genes today.

With three Military Crosses, three Croix de guerre, a Légion d''honneur and a papal knighthood for his heroics during the Second World War, Sir Tommy Macpherson is the most decorated living soldier of the British Army. Yet for 65 years the Highlander''s story has remained untold. Few know how, aged 21, he persuaded 23,000 SS soldiers of the feared Das Reich tank column to surrender, or how Tommy almost single-handedly stopped Tito''s Yugoslavia annexing the whole of north-east Italy. Twice captured, he escaped both times, marching through hundreds of miles of German-held territory to get home. Still a schoolboy when war broke out, Tommy quickly matured into a legendary commando, and his remarkable story features a dizzyingly diverse cast of characters, including Winston Churchill, Field Marshal Montgomery and Charles de Gaulle.

A.J.P. Taylor''s bestselling The Origins of the Second World War overturns popular myths about the outbreak of war.One of the most popular and controversial historians of the twentieth century, who made his subject accessible to millions, A.J.P. Taylor caused a storm of outrage with this scandalous bestseller. Debunking what were accepted truths about the Second World War, he argued provocatively that Hitler did not set out to cause the war as part of an evil master plan, but blundered into it partly by accident, aided by the shortcomings of others.Fiercely attacked for vindicating Hitler, A.J.P. Taylor''s stringent re-examination of the events preceding the Nazi invasion of Poland on 1st September 1939 opened up new debate, and is now recognized as a brilliant and classic piece of scholarly research.''Taylor''s most perfect work of art, a miracle of proportion, language and insight'' Robert Skidelsky''A dazzling exercise in revisionism which summed up Taylor''s paradoxical, provocative and inventive approach to history'' The Times''Taylor was a lifelong dissenter ... at his best - as in The Origins of the Second World War ... he shifted the ground of major debates'' Ben Pimlott, Financial Times''No historian of the past century has been more accessible'' Niall Ferguson, Sunday Telegraph''An almost faultless masterpiece'' Observer''Highly original and penetrating ... No one who has digested this enthralling work will ever be able to look at the period again in quite the same way'' Sunday TelegraphA.J.P. Taylor (1906-90) was one of the most controversial historians of the twentieth century. He served as a lecturer at the Universities of Manchester, Oxford, and London.

The world''s threats are universal like the sun but Ricardo Reis takes shelter under his own shadow. Back in Lisbon after sixteen years practising medicine in Brazil, Ricardo Reis wanders the rain-sodden streets. He longs for the unattainably aristocratic Marcenda, but it is Lydia, the hotel chamber maid who makes and shares his bed. His old friend, the poet Fernando Pessoa, returns to see him, still wearing the suit he was buried in six weeks earlier. It is 1936, the clouds of Fascism are gathering ominously above them, so they talk; a wonderful, rambling discourse on art, truth, poetry, philosophy, destiny and love.

An incisive overview of the macroeconomics of financial crises—essential reading for students and policy experts alikeWith alarming frequency, modern economies go through macro-financial crashes that arise from the financial sector and spread to the broader economy, inflicting deep and prolonged recessions. A Crash Course on Crises brings together the latest cutting-edge economic research to identify the seeds of these crashes, reveal their triggers and consequences, and explain what policymakers can do about them. Each of the book’s ten self-contained chapters introduces readers to a key economic force and provides case studies that illustrate how that force was dominant. Markus Brunnermeier and Ricardo Reis show how the run-up phase of a crisis often occurs in ways that are preventable but that may go unnoticed and discuss how debt contracts, banks, and a search for safety can act as triggers and amplifiers that drive the economy to crash. Brunnermeier and Reis then explain how monetary, fiscal, and exchange-rate policies can respond to crises and prevent them from becoming persistent. With case studies ranging from Chile in the 1970s to the COVID-19 pandemic, A Crash Course on Crises synthesizes a vast literature into ten simple, accessible ideas and illuminates these concepts using novel diagrams and a clear analytical framework.
