As an online commentator and host of her own show on Fox for many years, Judge Jeanine Pirro has seen firsthand how narratives take form, whether they are based in truth or not. In her explosive new book, she will write about some of the most egregious lies she's seen, and also interview various people who have been affected by fake news stories. Judge Jeanine will begin at her home base, Fox, and discuss her own experiences. Judge Jeanine believes that many modern-day feminists are promoting the lie that women have been oppressed by men since the beginning of time. She'll talk about Hillary Clinton, and the lie that if you didn't support her, you are a woman hater. Judge Jeanine will interview Ivanka Trump about this, and mention the different ways mainstream press talks about conservative women vs liberals. No topic is off limits in LIARS, LEAKERS, AND LIBERALS. Judge Jeanine will take on: * Antifa* Black Lives Matter and the media lie that set off race riots around the country* Obama - The reality of what Trump inherited regarding foreign and domestic messes* Trump - How the media has twisted his words to fit the narrative they've created, including firsthand accounts from people like Eric Trump and Corey Lewandowski* Anonymous sources and what can be done to curb the damage they doLeakers in the White House - why it really is a big deal, examples through history of leakers* Safe Spaces - The world is not safe. If you're old enough to go to war, you're old enough to hear an opinion you don't like. LIARS, LEAKERS, AND LIBERALS is Judge Jeanine's no-holds-barred answer to fake news, and it promises to be an enlightening and provocative read!

Lennon Carter's life is falling apart. Until she gets a mysterious phone call inviting her to sit the entrance exam for somewhere very few have heard of - Drayton College, a school of magic hidden in a secret pocket of Savannah. Lennon has been chosen because - like everyone else at the school - she is special. She possesses the innate gift of persuasion: the ability to wield her will like a weapon and to use it to control others and, in rare cases, matter itself.

Set during the French Revolution, this novel paints Marie Antoinette as the villain of the piece. By comparison, King Louis XIV is depicted as an accommodating monarch with his people\'s interests at heart. Historians will know the outcome of this thrilling tale but, even so, will find it fast-paced and brimming with intrigue and conspiracy.The adventure-packed narrative is supported by historical observations and Dumas\' rapier-sharp political knowledge. A superb read for those new to his work and for those who want to read beyond the romantic romps of \'The Three Musketeers.\'

Dějiny nejsou příběhem, ale skládají se z příběhů. Každý je vidí jinak, každý je jinak prožívá. Tato kniha nabízí možnost podívat se na tehdejší dynamickou dobu deseti páry očí, které měly lepší schopnost vidět ten správný okamžik tehdejšího času. Kniha je osobní, zejména fotografickou reflexí událostí roku 1989 očima tehdejších studentů žurnalistiky a dalších škol či fotografů a kameramanů, kteří většinou stáli teprve na počátku své profesní dráhy. Dokumentovali první demonstrace začátkem roku 1989 a zejména dramatické listopadové události. Zachytili i momenty symbolizující konec totalitního režimu, ať již v podobě odstraňování ostnatého drátu a volného průchodu přes hranice či první prezidentské inaugurace Václava Havla nebo prvních svobodných voleb po sametové revoluci. Reportážní fotografie nepořizovali v rámci školního či pracovního zadání, nýbrž z vlastní iniciativy, v euforii z převratných událostí té doby a s motivací zachytit alespoň určité momenty zásadní společenské změny. Přes sto sedmdesát fotografií tak zároveň vydává autentické svědectví o autorech samých, o jejich entuziasmu a zápalu pro věc. Fotografická kniha deseti kameramanů Zpravodajství ČT proto ani nemůže být uvedena jinak než předmluvou jednoho z jejich kolegů - studenta fakulty žurnalistiky patřícího mezi hlavní organizátory studentské "revoluční novinařiny", stávajícího ředitele zpravodajství a sportu České televize Zdeňka Šámala. Publikace je vybavena stručným historickým exkurzem a kalendáriem sametové revoluce v Československé televizi. Autoři fotografií: Martin Grošup, Vratislav Hůrka, Michal Hýbek, Evžen Janoušek, Petr Klíma, Pavel Krumphanzl, Pavel Otevřel, Miroslav Plocek, Lubomír Stiburek, Jiří Venclík

In "The Power of Habit", award-winning "New York Times" business reporter Charles Duhigg takes us to the thrilling edge of scientific discoveries that explain why habits exist and how they can be changed. With penetrating intelligence and an ability to distill vast amounts of information into engrossing narratives, Duhigg brings to life a whole new understanding of human nature and its potential for transformation. Along the way we learn why some people and companies struggle to change, despite years of trying, while others seem to remake themselves overnight. We visit laboratories where neuroscientists explore how habits work and where, exactly, they reside in our brains. We discover how the right habits were crucial to the success of Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps, Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz, and civil-rights hero Martin Luther King, Jr. We go inside Procter & Gamble, Target superstores, Rick Warren's Saddleback Church, NFL locker rooms, and the nation's largest hospitals and see how implementing so-called keystone habits can earn billions and mean the difference between failure and success, life and death. At its core, "The Power of Habit" contains an exhilarating argument: the key to exercising regularly, losing weight, raising exceptional children, becoming more productive, building revolutionary companies and social movements, and achieving success is understanding how habits work. Habits aren't destiny. As Charles Duhigg shows, by harnessing this new science, we can transform our businesses, our communities, and our lives.

eBook: Considered by contemporary critics to be Trollope's greatest novel, The Way We Live Now is a satire of the literary world of nineteenth-century London and a bold indictment of the new power of speculative finance in English life. The story concerns Augustus Melmotte, a French swindler and scoundrel, and his daughter, to whom Felix Carbury, adored son of the authoress Lady Carbury, is induced to propose marriage for the sake of securing a fortune. Trollope's portrait of Lady Carbury, impetuous, unprincipled, and unswervingly devoted to her own self-promotion, is one of his finest satirical achievements. In his kaleidoscopic depiction of a society on the verge of moral bankruptcy, Trollope gives us life as it was lived more than a hundred years ago, while speaking eloquently to some of the governing obsessions of our own age.
