Když v hornické vesnici v Černém kraji zmizí beze stopy tři členové jedné rodiny a nedlouho poté najde místní děvčátko v ptačím hnízdě lidské oko, požádá místní strážmistr o pomoc londýnský Scotland Yard. Inspektor Walter Day a seržant Nevil Hammersmith však netuší, co je čeká. Musí bojovat nejen s nepřízní živlů, ale i s pověrčivostí místního obyvatelstva, které upřímně věří, že pták je znamením smrti a že pod zemí má doupě krvavá příšera. Navíc se celá vesnice pomalu, ale jistě propadá do neprobádané sítě starých štol. Než policisté s pomocí dr. Kingsleyho rozluští záhadu Černého kraje, musí odhalit nejedno temné tajemství a osvědčit, že mají nejen nervy, ale i svaly ze železa.

Lars Kepler přichází s napínavou detektivní sérií — pod novým pseudonymem! Soukromá vyšetřovatelka Julie Starková přijímá u sebe v kanceláři neohlášenou návštěvu. Per Günter Mott, který je jedním z majitelů úspěšné rodinné firmy, se předchozího dne zúčastnil firemní schůze na svém panství v severozápadní části Švédska. Ráno pak ve svém telefonu našel fotografii zkrvaveného svázaného muže s pytlem na hlavě. Kvůli výpadkům paměti způsobeným velkým množstvím vypitého alkoholu ale netuší, jak se snímek do jeho telefonu dostal a kdo je na něm zachycen. Ze strachu o svoji pověst chce Per Günter Julii pověřit, aby očistila jeho jméno, než se do případu vloží policie. Julie požádá svého bývalého manžela Sidneyho Mendelsona, který pracuje u policie, aby si vzal volno a s vyšetřováním jí pomohl. Stále ještě trochu doufá, že by to mohla být šance získat ho zpět. Julie a Sid se společně vydají do honosného sídla uprostřed hlubokých lesů, kde se postupně seznamují se všemi členy rodiny Mottových. A jak se brzy ukáže, každý z nich má své tajemství.

The relationship between food and development has always been controversial. Over the last thirty years, development in the north and south has failed to deliver people a decent diet. While some people have too little food and die as a consequence, some people have too much food and die from associated diseases.Furthermore, some methods of food production create social dislocation and deadly environments where biodiversity is eroded and pollution is rampant. While guaranteeing enough food for the world's inhabitants continues to be a serious challenge, new issues about food have emerged. Food and Development is a lively and lucidly written text which provides a clear and accessible introduction to these complex and diverse food related problems.It explores the continued prevalence of mass under nutrition in the developing world; acute food crises in some places associated with conflict; the emergence of over nutrition in the developing world and the vulnerability of the contemporary global food production system. The text identifies the major problems and analyzes factors at international, national and local scales to understand their continued prevalence. The book concludes by evaluating the potential of some oppositional forces to challenge the hegemony of the contemporary food system.This timely and original text will be invaluable to undergraduates interested in the challenges surrounding food and development. The text is richly filled with case studies from the Global North and South to illustrate the nature and extent of these urgent issues and their interrelated nature. Each chapter contains a range of features to assist undergraduate learning, including: learning objective, key concepts, summaries, discussion questions, further reading and websites, and follow up activities.

Edward Fosca is a murderer. Of this Mariana is certain. But Fosca is untouchable. A handsome and charismatic Greek tragedy professor at Cambridge University, Fosca is adored by staff and students alike - particularly by the members of a secret society of female students known as The Maidens. Mariana Andros is a brilliant but troubled group therapist who becomes fixated on The Maidens when one member, a friend of Mariana's niece Zoe, is found murdered in Cambridge. Mariana, who was once herself a student at the university, quickly suspects that behind the idyllic beauty of the spires and turrets, and beneath the ancient traditions, lies something sinister. And she becomes convinced that, despite his alibi, Edward Fosca is guilty of the murder. But why would the professor target one of his students? And why does he keep returning to the rites of Persephone, the maiden, and her journey to the underworld? When another body is found, Mariana's obsession with proving Fosca's guilt spirals out of control, threatening to destroy her credibility as well as her closest relationships.

An intensely beautiful, profound and poetic biography of the formative years of the dark prince of rock 'n' roll, Boy on Fire is Nick Cave's creation story, a portrait of the artist first as a boy, then as a young man. A deeply insightful work which charts his family, friends, influences, milieu and, most of all, his music, it reveals how Nick Cave shaped himself into the extraordinary artist he would become. A powerful account of a singular, uncompromising artist, Boy on Fire is also a vivid and evocative rendering of a time and place, from the fast-running dark rivers and ghost gums of country-town Australia to the torn wallpaper, sticky carpet and manic energy of the nascent punk scene which hit staid 1970s Melbourne like an atom bomb. Boy on Fire is a stunning biographical achievement.

Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. Damaged machinery, the unforgiving environment, or plain old "human error" are much more likely to kill him first.

Druhá nejprodávanější kniha všech dob, unikátně v komiksovém provedení hlavního kreslíře britského deníku The Guardian. Povinná četba: nemusíte jej milovat, ale měli byste jej znát. Proletáři všech zemí, spojte se! Nemáte co ztratit, leda své okovy. Dobýt můžete celý svět. V roce 2018 uplynulo 200 let od narození Karla Marxe, jedné z nejkontroverznějších postav světové historie. Text Komunistického manifestu Marx napsal ve svých necelých 30 letech, údajně během víkendu v Bruselu v lednu 1848. Ani on sám v době psaní jistě netušil, že v příštím století se bude bezmála polovině lidstva alespoň formálně vládnout v souladu s idejemi a ambicemi poprvé vyloženými na těchto stranách. V době, kdy pouhých několik desítek lidí má stejný majetek jako polovina lidstva dohromady, se však Marxovi nedá upřít ani velká míra vizionářství. Právě rozpor mezi zrůdností ideologií, které Marxovy myšlenky přebíraly a reálnou podstatou jeho myšlenek se snaží vykreslit známý britský kreslíř Martin Rowson, dvorní karikaturista prestižního deníku The Guardian. Úloha je to jistě nesnadná.

Faber Stories, a landmark series of individual volumes, presents masters of the short story form at work in a range of genres and styles. A chance encounter leads a man to spend the afternoon with an older woman, now a widow, who escaped him fifteen years earlier. Neither of them doubts that the day will end in disgust, but for one intimate moment each finds a way to overcome mortality.Written in 1969, before Milan Kundera was known to English-speaking readers, this story renders male and female characters painful equals, and prompted Philip Roth to admire its 'detached Chekhovian tenderness'. Bringing together past, present and future in our ninetieth year, Faber Stories is a celebratory compendium of collectable work.

FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE SECRET LIFE OF COWS''Elegiac, funny, warm and wise, The Wisdom of Sheep will delight country folk and city dwellers alike.'' KATHERINE MAYWe talk about people behaving like sheep, which assumes that sheep all behave in the same way. That has not been my experience.Some are affectionate, others prone to head-butting. Some are determinedly self-sufficient, others seek our help when they need it. And some can be trusted to lead the flock home. They are as individual as we are.Farm animals are familiar to us from childhood stories, but little did we know that their inner lives are full of complexity, deep bonds and family dramas. Rosamund Young has been an organic farmer for over forty years and this is her record of a life at the beck and call of the animals while observing and preserving the abundant wildlife at Kite’s Nest Farm. It is a story of joy, discovery, cooperation and sometimes heartbreak. We learn about sheep growing old disgracefully, the intelligence of supposedly ‘bird-brained’ hens, ‘conversations’ between cows and why you should never send a text whilst milking . . .''Delightful.''
