Táto kontroverzná kniha nielen prekvapí, ale aj zaujme svojich slovenských čitateľov. Nie často sa totiž pacient užívajúci lieky s plnou dôverou k najlepším úmyslom a profesionalite svojho lekára dozvedá, že lieky môžu nielen pomáhať a liečiť, ale aj zabíjať. Autor presvedčivo argumentuje a dokazuje, že veľké farmaceutické firmy sa často správajú nezodpovedne až trestuhodne, vedome dodávajú na trh lieky, o ktorých účinnosti nie sú presvedčené a o ktorých škodlivosti dokonca vedia, ale zatajujú to. Prevažná väčšina lekárov vôbec netuší o negatívnych vlastnostiach liekov, ktoré im ich predajcovia odporúčajú či nanucujú, hoci určité percento - požívajúce finančné výhody alebo iné lukratívne ponuky vrátane zahraničných zájazdov a preplácania nákladov na rozličné konferencie (zväčša usporadúvané farmaceutickými firmami) to prinajmenšom tušiť musí. Ak si knihu prečítajú praktickí lekári, ktorí sú v primárnom priamom kontakte s pacientmi, určite si uvedomia, že odporúčania distribútorov liekov, ako aj obsah príbalových letákov, treba brať s určitou rezervou. Aj v agentúrach kontrolujúcich a schvaľujúcich lieky pracujú iba ľudia, z ktorých niektorí sú pod priamym vplyvom farmaceutických firiem, či dokonca vlastnia ich akcie. O tom všetkom sa však najlepšie presvedčí sám čitateľ, ak sa zahĺbi do obsahu knihy a vydrží ju čítať aj napriek množstvu negatívnych emócií, ktoré sa ho zmocnia. Bol to aj jeden z cieľov autora, ktorý chce takouto formou vážneho varovania zachrániť desiatky či stovky životov ľudí, ktorí berú lieky, hoci ich často nepotrebujú. Je na čitateľovi, aký postoj zaujme k všetkým uvádzaným faktom.

Myths and legendary tales from around the world are packed with gigantic rivalries; gods, monsters and giants compete for supremacy over the land, the creatures within and the universe beyond. Zeus clashes with the all-powerful Typhon, Odin is destined to face the great wolf Fenrir during Ragnarok. And yet monsters such as the Minotaur, and giants of all kinds, dragons even, are monsters only to those too fearful to understand them, while others such as the Sirens, or the weird sisters, are malevolent without remorse. Such mythical gods and their foes, make great adventures for the modern reader tracing the roots of The Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings and The Witcher, where good and evil are morphed into real avatars and creatures of vivid imagination. In these pages you'll find the gods of the heavens and mountains, and the spirits and demons of the deep sea, the dark woods and the burning sands. From the gods of Babylon and Ancient Egypt to the Norse Aesir, from the pantheon of mighty Greek deities to the gods of the earth and the sky in Pacific legends, most of the great traditions are featured here, with monsters galore: Anansi the trickster spider, the chaos serpent Apep, the Wendigo (or Windegoo spirits), the Greek Sphinx, the drought demon dragon Vritra and the Chimera to name a few.

''It succeeds both in explaining how global trade works and how it affects things many voters actually care about'' – Financial Times ''My hero on this is Dmitry Grozoubinski, who has written the most beautiful book'' – author Rory Stewart Why Politicians Lie About Trade reveals how international trade really works – the roadblock tariffs, the hard-won deals and the damaging disputes. Why Politicians Lie About Trade reveals how international trade really works – the roadblock tariffs, the hard-won deals, and the damaging disputes. Written with the expectation that the US would trigger a global trade war, this book takes readers on a revealing and sometimes funny tour of the shadowy workings of the $32 trillion-a-year international business that puts goods on our shelves and food in our mouths. Using clear writing and lively case studies, former trade negotiator Dmitry Grozoubinski reveals the underlying political and geographical forces that shape the impact of cross-border trade on food, jobs, gender, conflict, climate change and many other issues. And he reveals what politicians cover up about the system – and why it matters to your world. In short, Why Politicians Lie About Trade contains everything you need to know about the tricky network of imports and exports that rules our world – and is an ideal companion to popular business books like Taxtopia and Freakonomics. Serious publications such as the Financial Times and the World Trade Review have endorsed the book, along with popular authors Ian Dunt, James O''Brien and Rory Stewart. Reviews ''For some time, there has been a clear gap in the market for a guide to trade policy to help those with an interest to gain a better understanding of this important field and enable them to engage more actively in trade policy debates. Dmitry Grozoubinski’s Why Politicians Lie About Trade fits the bill admirably.'' Justin Brown, the Lowy Institute ''Despite being an entertaining read, his book is no joke. Structured in two parts, it succeeds both in explaining how global trade works and in illustrating how the rather rarefied topic of international trade policy affects things many voters actually care about: jobs, national security, climate change, and so on. Given how protectionism is increasingly touted as a simple solution to complex social and economic strains, it is also excellently timed. Felix Martin, Financial Times ''You will come out of it far more knowledgeable than you went in, and shielded from some of the more egregious deceit politicians want to inflict on you. You''ll also laugh out loud.'' Ian Dunt, author of How Westminster Works ''Written by a former trade negotiator who has trained many British diplomats, this book is authoritative, yet – and here’s the strange part – actually fun to read. Dmitry Grozoubinski has a rare knack for explaining complex information in an accessible and light-hearted way.'' Richard Baldwin, Professor of International Economics ''Writing a 300-page book on international trade policy issues in a way that is not only accessible but also entertaining would be a serious challenge for most authors. Dmitry Grozoubinski’s new book rises to that challenge.'' Chris Horseman, Bordelex ''Much of the book’s strength lies in its language. It largely avoids technical and academic-style terminology, and the content is presented with a wry and sometimes mischievous sense of humour. This approach makes even the most arcane and obscure parts of the book engaging.'' Justin Brown, the Lowy Institute ''Enraging & enlightening in equal measure. And the measure is absolutely enormous.'' James O''Brien, author of How They Broke Britain Recommended by The Rest is Politics podcast. Buy the book and start reading

35 YEARS IN THE MAKING: THE MOST ANTICIPATED GRAPHIC NOVEL IN RECENT HISTORY *A GUARDIAN ''BOOKS OF 2021'' PICK*The year is 1964. Bailey doesn''t realize he is about to fulfil his tragic destiny when he walks into a US Army recruitment office. Secretive, damaged, innocent, trying to forget a past and looking for a future, Bobby is the perfect candidate for a secret US government experiment, an unholy continuation of a genetics program that was discovered in Nazi Germany nearly 20 years earlier in the waning days of World War II. Bailey''s only ally and protector, Sergeant McFarland, intervenes, which sets off a chain of cascading events that spin out of everyone''s control. As the monsters of the title multiply, becoming real and metaphorical, the story reaches a crescendo of moral reckoning.A 360-page tour de force of visual storytelling, Monsters'' narrative canvas is copious: part familial drama, part thriller, part metaphysical journey, it is an intimate portrait of individuals struggling to reclaim their lives and an epic political odyssey that plays across two generations of American history.Monsters is rendered in Barry Windsor-Smith''s impeccable pen-and-ink technique, the visual storytelling, with its sensitivity to gesture and composition, the most sophisticated of the artist''s career. There are passages of heartbreaking tenderness, of excruciating pain, of redemption and sacrifice, and devastating violence. Monsters is surely one of the most intense graphic novels ever drawn.
