Bound by love, but sworn to kill...The world thought Dimitri was dead. And to a certain extent, he was. But I hadn't been able to forget a conversation he and I had once had. We'd both agreed that we'd rather be dead - truly dead - than walk the world as Strigoi. It was time to honor our words.Guardian Rose Hathaway's life will never be the same. The recent attack on St. Vladimir's Academy devastated the entire Moroi world. Many are dead. And, for the few victims carried off by Strigoi, their fates are even worse. A rare tattoo now adorns Rose's neck; a mark that says she's killed far too many Strigoi to count.But only one victim matters... Dimitri Belikov. Rose must now choose one of two very different paths: honoring her life's vow to protect Lissa—her best friend and the last surviving Dragomir princess—or, dropping out of the Academy to strike out on her own and hunt down the man she loves. She'll have to go to the ends of the earth to find Dimitri and keep the promise he begged her to make. But the question is, when the time comes, will he want to be saved?Now, ...

Syd Mead is one of the most accomplished and widely respected artists and industrial designers alive today. His career boasts an incredible array of projects from designing cars to drafting architectural renderings, but he is most famous for his work as a concept artist on some of the most visually arresting films in the history of cinema.

Making Mead - Bryan Acton, Peter Duncan
Mead is an alcoholic drink made by fermenting honey and water with yeast. A glass of lightly chilled mead on a summer''s evening is a splendid delight. And yet, of all the crafts of mankind, mead-making is certainly one of the oldest. It is likely that mead was made even before the wheel was invented as stone-age cave paintings depict the collection of honey from bee colonies. The drink made from honey became a staple of Celtic, Anglo-Saxon, Medieval and Renaissance Britain.This practical book will inspire you to take up this admirable craft. It includes chapters on honey selection, mead-making techniques, and forty-two recipes for mead, melomel (using honey mixed with fruit juice), pyment (honey mixed with grapes), hippocras (honey mixed with grapes and herbs), metheglin (spiced medicinal mead), cyser (honey mixed with apples) and other honey drinks.

Mysl, já a společnost - George Herbert Mead
Mysl, já a společnost je základní dílo G. H. Meada, jež je považováno za zakladatelskou práci symbolického interakcionismu. Mead je svébytnou postavou intelektuálních dějin, která za svého života v oblasti společenských věd nevydala žádnou knihu. Mysl, já a společnost byla sestavena Meadovými žáky po jeho smrti na základě záznamů autorových přednášek. Kniha, jež se stala jedním z významných děl v historii sociologie, sociální psychologie a filozofie, vychází v češtině poprvé a ve zkrácené podobě, s důrazem na autorovy psychologické teorie. Je důležitá pro pochopení vývoje jedince a jeho neoddělitelnost od společnosti, v níž vyrostl. Závěry, k nimž Mead dospěl, jsou dodnes aktuální a velmi dobře korespondují například s poznatky soudobých kognitivních neurověd. Doslov Roman Madzia. George Herbert Mead (1863–1931) byl americkým filozofem, sociologem a psychologem, který působil na Chicagské univerzitě. Je považován za jednoho ze zakladatelů sociální psychologie i americké sociologické tradice. Jeho nejslavnější kniha Mysl, já a společnost vyšla v roce 1934.

Visions of the Vampire
The vampire is one of the great enemies of humanity, a nightmarish figure who feeds on the living in order to sustain themselves. Born from ancient folklore, writers in the 19th century gave form to the vampire as we know it today. Still haunting our subconscious in the 20th century, a new wave of writers continued to develop the imagery and traditions of the vampire—and the vampire continued to evolve. From John Polidori’s iconic short story "The Vampyre" and tales of parasitic female companions to experimental and freshly thrilling takes by Robert Bloch, Angela Carter, and Anne Rice, this new collection sets out to present the enrapturing range of the vampire story and our undying fascination with the monster at its heart.
