The History Detective Investigates: Stone Age to Iron Age - Clare Hibbert
Find out all about the first Britons, nomadic hunter-gatherers who came from mainland Europe to settle in England bringing wooden spears, flint handaxes and animals with them. Stone Age to Iron Age tells the story of how these people settled and began farming the land. They built villages of timber and stone houses such as Skara Brae on Orkney. Stonehenge is perhaps the most famous monument of this period, a technological marvel of the time built by raising over 80 blue stones to create the ''henge''. The Bronze Age bought with it metalworking using copper, tin and gold to make tools and beautiful everyday objects. The Iron Age was known for its hill forts, farming and art and culture. Contains maps, paintings, artefacts and photographs to show how early Britons lived. Ideally suited for readers age 8+ or teachers who are looking for books to support the new curriculum for 2014.

Kniha - autor Steven R. Gundry, 272 stran, anglicky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá From the author of the New York Times bestseller The Plant Paradox comes a groundbreaking plan for living a long, healthy, happy life. From the moment we are born, our cells begin to age. But aging does not have to mean decline. World-renowned surgeon Dr. Steven Gundry has been treating mature patients for most of his career. He knows that everyone thinks they want to live forever, until they hit middle age and witness the suffering of their parents and even their peers. So how do we solve the paradox of wanting to live to a ripe old age—but enjoy the benefits of youth? This groundbreaking book holds the answer. Working with thousands of patients, Dr. Gundry has discovered that the “diseases of aging” we most fear are not simply a function of age; rather, they are a byproduct of the way we have lived over the decades. In The Longevity Paradox, he maps out a new approach to aging...

The Life, Old Age, and Death of a Working-Class Woman - Didier Eribon
A meditation on the social political and philosophical questions of ageing, from the internationally acclaimed author of Returning to ReimsA few years ago, Didier Eribon’s mother began to lose her physical and cognitive autonomy. After several months of resistance, Eribon and his brothers were compelled to place her in a nursing home. A few short weeks later, his mother passed away. In The Life, Old Age, and Death of a Working-Class Woman, Eribon continues the historical, political and personal reflection he began with Returning to Reims, this time turning his attention to the end of life. Tracing his mother’s rapid decline, and drawing on works by Simone de Beauvoir, Norbert Elias, Annie Ernaux and Michel Foucault, among others, Eribon transmutes his rage, sadness and the shame over her death into a strikingly nuanced portrait of the woman who raised him. Here, Eribon asks: how does our society treat the elderly? What is the place of bodies that can no longer assemble, discuss freedom or protest? Can the completely dependent speak for themselves – and if not, who can speak for them?An honest, original and wide-ranging exploration of the relationship between ageing and class, politics and literature, this is a profound meditation on a fundamental human experience, too often overlooked.

The Age of Wonder - Richard Holmes
Shortlisted for the Samuel Johnson Prize and winner of the Royal Society Prize for Science Books, Richard Holmes’s dazzling portrait of the age of great scientific discovery is a groundbreaking achievement.The book opens with Joseph Banks, botanist on Captain Cook’s first Endeavour voyage, who stepped onto a Tahitian beach in 1769 fully expecting to have located Paradise. Back in Britain, the same Romantic revolution that had inspired Banks was spurring other great thinkers on to their own voyages of artistic and scientific discovery – astronomical, chemical, poetical, philosophical – that together made up the ‘age of wonder’.In this breathtaking group biography, Richard Holmes tells the stories of the period’s celebrated innovators and their great scientific discoveries: from telescopic sight to the miner’s lamp, and from the first balloon flight to African exploration.

The Old King in his Exile - Geiger Arno
Shortlisted for the Helen and Kurt Wolff Prize for its translation Shortlisted for the Schlegel-Tieck Prize for its translation What makes us who we are? Arno Geiger''s father was never an easy man to know and when he developed Alzheimer''s, Arno realised he was not going to ask for help. ''As my father can no longer cross the bridge into my world, I have to go over to his.'' So Arno sets out on a journey to get to know him at last. Born in 1926 in the Austrian Alps, into a farming family who had an orchard, kept three cows, and made schnapps in the cellar, his father was conscripted into World War II as a ''schoolboy soldier'' - an experience he rarely spoke about, though it marked him. Striking up a new friendship, Arno walks with him in the village and the landscape they both grew up in and listens to his words, which are often full of unexpected poetry.Through his intelligent, moving and often funny account, we begin to see that whatever happens in old age, a human being retains their past and their character. Translated into nearly 30 languages, The Old King in His Exile will offer solace and insight to anyone coping with a loved one''s aging.

An Old Woman's Reflections - Peig Sayers
Storytelling kept alive the myths, legends and history of the Blasket Islands. In her old age, Peig Sayers, recounted her life to her son who recorded the tale in this book. She recalls the events of her life and her simple philosophy in a moving poetic style. Such everyday tasks as collecting turf for roots, catching and eating seals, and preparing for a wake are depicted alongside such momentous events as drownings at sea, pilgrimages, and the spread of the news of the Easter uprising in 1916. There were ''clouds of sorrow'', but helping to lift them was the friendship she found in the community, which ''was like a little rose in the wilderness''. The Blasket Islands are three miles off Irelands Dingle Peninsula. Until their evacuation just after the Second World War, the lives of the 150 or so Blasket Islanders had remained unchanged for centuries. A rich oral tradition of story-telling, poetry, and folktales kept alive the legends and history of the islands, and has made their literature famous throughout the world. The 7 Blasket Island books published by OUP contain memoirs and reminiscences from within this literary tradition, evoking a way of life which has now vanished.

Tangled Up - Michael Hornberger
The only comprehensive guide to the history and science of Alzheimer’s disease With vivid examples, dementia expert Michael Hornberger takes you on a whistle-stop tour of every aspect of Alzheimer''s disease, from its origins to modern diagnosis and treatment. Professor Hornberger shows how you can protect yourself and your family from developing the disease. His book explains: What causes Alzheimer’s disease Why Alzheimer’s often affects memory first The role of genetics in raising and lowering risk for the disease The chances you will inherit Alzheimer’s from your parents The practical steps you can take to reduce your risk of getting dementia Alzheimer’s disease accounts for around 70% of all people with dementia and its incidence is growing. Prof Hornberger, a neuroscientist who has researched Alzheimer’s for decades, delves into this most common form of dementia by looking at the very first patient, Auguste Deter, who was diagnosed with ‘Alzheimer’s’. Mrs Deter was interviewed by a pioneering German doctor, Alois Alzheimer. She could remember her wedding but not her husband''s name or where they lived. Generally, old memories thrive in most people with Alzheimer''s disease, while newer ones are harder to remember. But, as this guide explains, some lesser-known Alzheimer''s variants, such as Posterior Cortical Atrophy, do not start with memory loss. Prof Hornberger explains the role that inherited genes play in transmitting Alzheimer''s, including the important difference between risk genes and familial Alzheimer’s disease genes – which make developing the disease a near certainty. Finally, the book looks at new ‘biomarkers’ and blood tests to detect, diagnose and monitor Alzheimer’s, and which new treatments are emerging. Prof Hornberger warns that popularly touted techniques to prevent Alzheimer''s may not be worth your time or money. Instead, he sets out the steps you can take to protect yourself from this debilitating degenerative disease. Reviews ‘A fascinating journey, both historically and scientifically, from the first recorded case of Alzheimer’s disease through to modern therapies. This book is essential reading for anyone wanting to understand the real science behind what causes Alzheimer’s disease and how best to prevent it.’ – John O’Brien, Professor of Old Age Psychiatry, University of Cambridge ‘This is such a clear and interesting book, which takes away the fear from something to which we are all at risk. It is high time we knew more, and this is just the place to start.’ – Professor Tom Shakespeare, Professor of Disability Research, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine ‘It expertly balances deep scientific insights with engaging storytelling... As we enter an era of hope in our battle against this devastating disease, Tangled Up is an invaluable resource for the curious reader, be they caregiver, scientist or medical professional.’ – Karen Duff, Centre Director, UK Dementia Research Institute, University College London About the author Michael Hornberger is Professor of Applied Dementia Research at the University of East Anglia in the UK. He regularly meets patients with Alzheimer’s disease as part of his research aimed at improving diagnosis, disease tracking and symptom management. Buy the book and carry on reading

Major Works - John Clare
This authoritative edition was originally published in the acclaimed Oxford Authors series under the general editorship of Frank Kermode. It brings together a generous selection of Clare''s poetry and prose, including autobiographical writings and letters.John Clare (1793-1864) is now recognized as one of the greatest English Romantic poets, after years of indifference and neglect. Clare was an impoverished agricultural labourer, whose genius was generally not appreciated by his contemporaries, and his later mental instability further contributed to his loss of critical esteem. But the extraordinary range of his poetical gifts has restored him to the company of his contemporaries Byron, Keats, and Shelley, and this fine selection illustrates all aspects of his talent. It contains poems from all stages of his career, including love poetry, and bird and nature poems. Written in his native Northamptonshire, Clare''s work provides a fascinating reflection of rural society, often underscored by his own sense of isolation and despair.Clare''s writings are here presented with the minimum of editorial interference, and with a new Introduction by the poet and scholar Tom Paulin. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Making Matters - Clare Hunter
''Clare Hunter is out to reclaim the joy of making for the masses... no act of creativity is too humble, too ephemeral, for this hymn to the sensory wonder and connectivity of the homemade''OBSERVER''In an era of screens and machines, what a joy it is to read Clare Hunter''s inspiring new book, which summons up the creative delights of making wonderment with our own hands''Justine Picardie, author of Miss Dior''Making Matters celebrates the joy of the handmade in all of its wonderful variety. In a fast paced world, it is a timely and beautiful exploration of making traditions. I loved it!''Kate Strasdin, author of The Dress Diary of Mrs Anne SykesAs children, we made things: snowmen, paper boats, eccentrically costumed plays. That making fired our minds and imaginations - it altered our small worlds and shaped who we became. But as adults, it is hard to find to find the space for creativity and to remember its power.Exploring craft traditions and forms of making from across centuries and cultures, Clare Hunter encourages to engage with the world afresh. To use our hands again, to see beauty in unexpected places, to play and protest and embrace imaginative possibilities. From paper crafts to wonders made from light and snow, she searches for creative delight - making lanterns, puppets and pinhole cameras.Inspiring and fascinating, Making Matters celebrates individual and collective creativity. It blends history, culture and politics with rich storytelling, wonderful characters and tales of remarkable objects. Read this, and then make something.PRAISE FOR THREADS OF LIFE:"An astonishing feat . . .

Electronically Yours - Martyn Ware
This is a music autobiography to remember. This is the story of Martyn Ware.The Human League and Heaven 17 were among some of the most pioneering bands of the 1980s, with Ware having played an integral role in each of their numerous successes. A young lad from the heart of post-war Sheffield, Ware formed The Human League a few years out of school in his early twenties. Described by David Bowie as 'the future of music', it wasn't long before the band become known for their innovative and infectiously catchy singles such as 'Being Boiled', touring with the likes of Siouxsie and the Banshees and Iggy Pop before Ware's departure. Heaven 17 followed suit, with their soon-to-be classic albums, Penthouse & Pavement and The Luxury Gap, featuring several colossal hits. Ground-breaking icons in new wave and synth pop, both groups remain some of the biggest-selling bands across the UK and worldwide.In Electronically Yours, Martyn takes us through his incredible route to stardom; from his austere upbringing in various council houses and close teenage friendship with former-bandmate Phil Oakey, to the white-hot experimentation in the 'Synth Britannia' era and his production career, which allowed him to work with some of the world's greatest singers, including Tina Turner. But it's not just his life inside the industry which is compelling; a proud socialist, Martyn writes poignantly about politics - how it can be a soulful, personal, moral duty - and its role in his music creation and Britain today. With charming meditations on culture, humour, travel and sport, Martyn also shares his love of 60s films, explains why Venice is the most beautiful city in the world, and reveals how Sheffield Wednesday has forever been his first and eternal passion.A huge page-turner and always warmly told, Electronically Yours sees Martyn talk candidly for the very first time about his extraordinary journey. Discover amusing anecdotes, raw confessions, and moving reflections of a life well and truly lived at the height of the music industry.

The effects can be powerful and far-reaching.For parents and grandparents with children of all ages, this book offers advice on store cupboard essentials, guidance on what not to feed your children, tips on how to involve the whole family in the preparation and cooking process, and recipes for all occasions.

New Survey of Clare Island Volume 10: Land and freshwater fauna
Field naturalists have searched across Clare Island for animal groups ranging from the microscopic to birds and mammals. Many more species have been found since the original survey a hundred years ago, due to the availability of modern methods, which greatly add to our knowledge of the biodiversity of Clare Island. The lists of species featured here include some new to the island, some new to Ireland and some new to science. This volume signals the need for further field work and taxonomic research to track biodiversity changes arising from human activity. Land and freshwater fauna is the tenth volume in the New Survey of Clare Island series, which seeks to build on the pioneering work of the first Clare Island Survey (1909–11), the most ambitious natural history project ever undertaken in Ireland and the first major biological survey of a specific area carried out in the world.

John Clare - Bate Jonathan
‘What distinguished Clare is an unspectacular joy and a love for the inexorable one-thing-after-anotherness of the world’ Seamus Heaney John Clare (1793-1864) was a great Romantic poet, with a name to rival that of Blake, Byron, Wordsworth or Shelley – and a life to match. The ‘poet’s poet’, he has a place in the national pantheon and, more tangibly, a plaque in Westminster Abbey’s Poets’ Corner, unveiled in 1989. Here at last is Clare’s full story, from his birth in poverty and employment as an agricultural labourer, via his burgeoning promise as a writer – cultivated under the gaze of rival patrons – and moment of fame, in the company of John Keats, as the toast of literary London, to his final decline into mental illness and the last years of his life, confined in asylums. Clare’s ringing voice – quick-witted, passionate, vulnerable, courageous – emerges through extracts from his letters, journals, autobiographical writings and poems, as Jonathan Bate brings this complex man, his revered work and his ribald world, vividly to life.

Temné lsti 1 - Paní půlnoci - Cassandra Clare
Los Angeles, 2012. Je tomu již pět let, co dvanáctiletá lovkyně stínů Emma Carstairsová přišla za Temné války o oba rodiče. Dnes už Emma dávno není dítě, ale mladá žena odhodlaná k pátrání a pomstě. Spolu se svým parabátai Juliánem Blackthornem musí překazit nekalé spiknutí a rozbít síť temné mafie, jejíž dlouhé prsty sahají od Sunset Stripu až k magickým hlubinám oceánu a plážím v Santa Monice. Aby to dokázala, musí se však naučit důvěřovat svému srdci, které ji, zdá se, svádí na scestí…Románem Paní půlnoci otevírá Cassandra Clare další strhující a vášnivou trilogii ze světa lovců stínů.---Cassandra Clare je autorkou úspěšných fantasy ság (Nástroje smrti, Pekelné stroje a další), které si podmanily statisíce čtenářů. Narodila se americkým rodičům v Teheránu a dětství strávila na cestách, s kufry plnými klasických fantasy knížek. Několik let pak pracovala jako novinářka v časopisech o celebritách, než se pustila do psaní románů, a již první sérií ze světa lovců stínů si získala přízeň čtenářů. Její temně romantické i napínavé příběhy se od té doby staly kultem. „Nástroje smrti jsou světem, ve kterém ráda žiju,“ napsala o jejích knihách autorka Stmívání Stephenie Mayerová. Do tohoto světa zasazuje Cassandra Clare i svou nejnovější, nedočkavě očekávanou sérii Temné lsti.

Životy lovců stínů svazuje povinnost. Parabátai bojují bok po boku a stejně tak i umírají, ale nikdy se do sebe nesmějí zamilovat. Emma Carstairsová ví, že láska, kterou cítí ke svému parabátai Juliánu Blackthornovi, není jen zákonem zapovězená, ale mohla by je také oba zničit. Ví, že by se od Juliána měla držet dál, jenže jak by mohla, když rodina Blackthornových čelí nepřátelům hned na několika frontách? Jejich jedinou nadějí je Černý spis mrtvých, mocná kniha, kterou se všichni snaží získat. Není to snadný úkol. Pokračování strhující trilogie Temné lsti, ve jejímž prvním díle Paní půlnoci Cassandra Clare čtenáře opět zavedla do nebezpečného a vzrušujícího světa odvážných lovců stínů.---Cassandra Clare je autorkou úspěšných fantasy ság (Nástroje smrti, Pekelné stroje a další), které si podmanily statisíce čtenářů.

Roger Federer předváděl tenis neuvěřitelně lehce déle než dekádu a to krásným nápřahem u bekhendu, klouzáním do forhendu, při smečích ve výskoku popíráním gravitace a zůstával vysoko na světových stupních vítězů ve sportu právem zaplaveného cynismem. Jeho cesta od temperamentního odbarveného teenagera s pochybným stylem až k jednomu z největších, nejvyrovnanějších a nejelegantnějších světových hráčů tenisu, kteří vládli dlouhodobě vůlí a ne osudem, je inspirující. Měl nejen velký talent, ale i drzost. Christopher Clarey je jeden z předních mezinárodních sportovních spisovatelů současnosti a Federerovi se věnuje od počátku jeho kariéry. Byl přítomný na Roland Garros na kurtě Suzanne Lenglenové na Federeově prvním grandslamovém zápase a exkluzivně s ním udělal nejvíce rozhovorů než kterýkoliv jiný novinář od jeho vzestupu na výsluní. Clarey se v knize zaměřuje na klíčové osoby, místa a okamžiky Federerovy dlouhé a bohaté kariéry: reportáže z Jižní Afriky, Jižní Ameriky, Středního východu, čtyři grandslamové turnaje a rodné Švýcarsko. Byla to jízda jako u žádného jiného hráče, plná vítězství a několika drtivých porážek, která nově definovala dokonalost a udělala z Rogera sentimentálního favorita na celém světě. "Mistr" vypráví příběh o Federerově životě a kariéře jak v intimním, tak velkém měřítku, způsobem, který by nikdo jiný nedokázal.

Selected Poetry of John Clare - John Clare
This is the first selection of the great Romantic ''peasant poet'' John Clare to make available the full range of his accomplishment - as the chronicler of nature and childhood, the champion of folkways in the face of enclosure and oppression, the love poet, the political satirist and solitary visionary, confined in his maturity to lunatic asylums.''Clare grabs hold of you - no, he doesn''t grab hold of you, he is already there, talking to you before you''ve arrived on the scene, telling you about himself, about the things that are closest and dearest to him, and it would no more occur to him to do otherwise than it would occur to Whitman to stop singing you his song of himself.'' John Ashbery''It is what Lawrence calls the poetry of the living present.'' Seamus Heaney
