What if you aren't depressed?What if you don't have chronic fatigue?What if you are just... angry? In a world where patience is a virtue and being a good girl is for life, women are never allowed to truly express their anger - and it is making us ill. After a lifetime of being told to repress it, to hide it away and fear it, anger has begun to manifest in female bodies in myriad ways we can't control. And the results are alarming. In this powerful and eye-opening book, psychotherapist Jennifer Cox takes us on a journey from cradle to grave revealing how, at every stage of our lives, women are conditioned not to speak out or 'make a fuss'. Jennifer draws on her wealth of therapeutic experience to show us how to tune in to our feelings of frustration and offers us the tools to express what we have subdued for so long. Women are Angry will show you where your rage is hiding - and how to let it out. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

eBook: Written just a year before his death, ‘Why is the Negro Lynched?’ is one of Douglass’ most moving and passionate speeches. Still sadly-pertinent today, his skill as a wordsmith is captured in passages that discuss everything from law and respect for human life to religion and the necessity for belonging. An expert orator, Douglass presents his arguments as though they were part of a court case, deftly switching between the roles of prosecution and defence, before passing sentence against the white establishment of the time. An important book for anyone and everyone. Frederick Douglass (1818-1995) was an American abolitionist and author. Born into slavery in Maryland, he was of African, European, and Native American descent. He was separated from his mother at a young age and lived with his grandmother until he was moved to another plantation. Frederick was taught his alphabet by the wife of one of his owners, a knowledge he passed on to other slaves. In 1838, he successfully escaped slavery by jumping on a north-bound train. After less than 24 hours, he was in New York and free. The same year, he married the woman that had inspired his run for freedom and started working actively as a social reformer, orator, statesman, and women’s rights defender. He remains most known today for his 1845 autobiography \"Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave.\" (knihydobrovsky.cz)

In the middle of the eighteenth century, British entrepreneurs unleashed the astounding energies of steam and coal and the world changed forever. Factories, railways and gunboats then propelled the West's rise to power, and computers and nuclear weapons in the twentieth century secured its global supremacy. Today, however, many worry that the emergence of China and India spell the end of the West as a superpower.How long will the power of the West last? In order to find out we need to know: why has the West been so dominant for the past two hundred years?With flair and authority, historian and achaeologist Ian Morris draws uniquely on 15,000 years of history to offer fresh insights on what the future will bring. Deeply researched and brilliantly argued, Why The West Rules - For Now is a gripping and truly original history of the world. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

Told through case studies and medical history, this is an enlightening, in-depth book on the fascinating science behind pain and the complexities of its treatment, by one of the leading doctors in this area. Pain is a universal human experience, but we understand very little about the mechanics behind it. We hurt ourselves, we feel pain, we seek help from a professional or learn to avoid certain behaviours that cause pain. But the story of what goes on in our body is far from simple. Even medical practitioners themselves often fail to grasp the complexities between our minds and bodies and how they interact when dealing with pain stimulus.Common conception still equates pain with tissue damage but that is only a very small part of the story - the organ which produces pain is the brain. Case studies show that a woman who has undergone a caesarean reports dramatically less pain than a patient who has had a comparably invasive operation. The soldier who drags themselves to safety after being shot deals with pain in a remarkably different way from someone suffering a similar injury on a street. The truth is that pain is a complex mix of nerve endings, psychological state, social preconceptions and situational awareness.Using case studies and medical history, Dr Lalkhen guides us through all aspects of pain, from chronic to acute, and the current landscape of pain treatments - from medication (including opioids) to electrical nerve stimulation. Whether it's a mild ache or severe discomfort, we all encounter pain in our lives and this important and illuminating book enables us to understand and cope with an experience that for so many can become all-consuming.

Kniha skutečných příběhů "posledních" nejvýznamnějších kanibalských Papuánských náčelníků a autentický záznam komunikace při symbolickém "Posledním Prvním Kontaktu". Po tisíciletí byly takového příběhy předávány z generace na generaci pouze verbálně. Tato kniha /bohatě doplněných černobílými fotografiemi/ je první zaznamenaný materiál přepsaných autentických nahrávek rozhovorů s posledními přírodními lidmi doby kamenné předtím, než je navždy změní globalizace. Všichni mluví v první osobě a popisují své skutečné zážitky, neboť v džungli se nerozlišuje (západním úhlem pohledu) přirozené od nadpřirozeného. Všechno je reálné. Až dosud bývaly "první kontakty" věcí moci, násilí, zvětšování teritorií a území vlivu, /ale naše země nikdy nekolonizovala jiné/ a o dnes již zaniklých animistických kulturách se zachovala svědectví prospektorů, misionářů, vojáků a antropologů, aniž domorodci vyprávějí sami o sobě. První kontakt s posledními přírodními národy až dosud nikdy neučinili umělci, přestože jde o "Setkání kultur".... Jedná se rozšířenou verzi knihy Proč je noc černá, jejíž první vydání roku 2005 získalo cenu Magnesia Litera za objev roku. A book of true stories told by the ‘last' prominent cannibal Papuan tribal chiefs and the authentic record of communication during the symbolic ‘Final First Contact'. For thousands of years, stories like these have been part of the tribes' oral tradition, passed down from generation to generation. This book /richly supplemented with black and white photographs/ is the first ever transcription of authentic recorded interviews, conducted with the final indigenous tribespeople before their primeval culture is forever changed by globalisation. The first-person accounts describe the tribesmen's true stories, at least from their point of view: for them, there is no distinction between the natural and the supernatural - everything is equally real. Until now, ‘first contacts' have been a matter of power, violence, the expansion of territories and spheres of influence /but our country has never colonized others/ and there are testimonies of prospectors, missionaries, soldiers, and anthropologists about the now extinct animist cultures, without the natives telling their own stories. The first contact with the last natural nations had never previously been made by artists, despite the fact that it was a Meeting of Cultures… This is an expanded version of the book Why the Night is Black, the first edition of which won the 2005 Magnesia Litera Award for Discovery of the Year.

We spend our lives gathering - first in classrooms and then in meetings, weddings, conferences and away days. Yet so many of us spend this time in underwhelming moments that fail to engage us, inspire us, or connect us. We've all sat in meetings where people talk past each other or go through the motions and others which galvanize a team and remind everyone why they first took the job. We've been to weddings that were deeply moving and others that were run-of-the-mill and simply faded away. Why do some moments take off and others fizzle? What's the difference between the gatherings that inspire you and the ones that don't? In The Art of Gathering, Priya Parker gets to the heart of these questions and reveals how to design a transformative gathering. An expert on organizing successful gatherings whether in conference centres or her living room, Parker shows us how to create moving, magical, mind-changing experiences - even in spaces where we've come to expect little.

When Richard Rumelt's Good Strategy/Bad Strategy was published in 2011, it immediately struck a chord, calling out as bad strategy the mish-mash of pop culture, motivational slogans and business buzz speak so often and misleadingly masquerading as the real thing. Since then, his original and pragmatic ideas have won fans around the world and continue to help readers to recognise and avoid the elements of bad strategy and adopt good, action-oriented strategies that honestly acknowledge the challenges being faced and offer straightforward approaches to overcoming them. Strategy should not be equated with ambition, leadership, vision or planning; rather, it is coherent action backed by an argument. For Rumelt, the heart of good strategy is insight into the hidden power in any situation, and into an appropriate response - whether launching a new product, fighting a war or putting a man on the moon. Drawing on examples of the good and the bad from across all sectors and all ages, he shows how this insight can be cultivated with a wide variety of tools that lead to better thinking and better strategy, strategy that cuts through the hype and gets results.

Dílo postavené v centru jihomoravského veletržního a univerzitního města doprovází řada názvů. Hovoří se o něm jako o hodinovém multifunkčním stroji, stroji času nebo časostroji. V různých tiskových zprávách a článcích je však frekventovaný termín „orloj“. Je to správné? Z hlediska historického vývoje se substantivum orloj původně vztahovalo ke všem hodinám na budovách. Později se jednalo o středověké věžní hodiny, od nichž se očekávalo, že budou ukazovat aktuální čas a s ním postavení a vztah Slunce s Měsícem a dalšími nebeskými tělesy. Vždy šlo o důmyslně sestrojená zařízení, která zformovali lidé s kvalitními znalostmi matematiky, geometrie, astronomie a mechaniky. Jejich mimořádnost podtrhovalo také to, že společně s nimi se na nich podíleli vynikající umělci, kteří jim vtiskli jedinečný výraz. Výsledná práce pak získala nejen atributy výjimečného technického produktu, ale i hodnotného uměleckého díla, které přetrvalo staletí. Ze slavných českých a moravských příkladů stačí vzpomenout staroměstský orloj v Praze nebo orloj v Olomouci. Za pozornost stojí orloj v Litomyšli, menší orloj z Nové radnice v Prostějově či orloj z Uherského Brodu. Pro klasifikaci brněnského díla je významná skutečnost, že v kontextu podmínek určujících orloj není zastoupena astronomická složka. Je potřeba pochopit a přijmout, aby dosud v hovorovém jazyce vžitý název „orloj“ byl považován za nepřesný a nesprávný. Nový termín časostroj použil v jednom z televizních diskusních fór známý moderátor Václav Moravec. Z hlediska dikce spisovného jazyka českého se jedná o formu možnou, ale ne příliš frekventovanou. Podstatu díla nejlépe vyjadřuje označení hodinový stroj, který je také uplatněn na informačních tabulích na brněnském náměstí Svobody umístěných v jeho bezprostřední blízkosti. Termín hodinový stroj, s adjektivem „multifunkční“, můžeme přijmout proto, že mimo měření času má ještě další zajímavou funkci. Ta mu umožňuje, aby každý den prostřednictvím uvolněné skleněné kuličky připomněl jednu z důležitých a vážných kapitol brněnské historie. Nejspíše však vznikne jazyková ambivalence, kdy v hovorové češtině se sice nesprávně, ale široce bude název orloj používat. V oficiálních vyjádřeních, i v této knize, budeme důsledně používat termín „hodinový stroj“, který podstatu díla vystihuje nejlépe. (knihydobrovsky.cz)
