Lacná kniha Book with No Pictures (-90%)
You might think a book with no pictures seems boring and serious. Except ...here's how books work. Everything written on the page has to be said by the person reading it aloud. Even if the words say ...BLORK. Or BLUURF. And even if the words include things like BLAGGITY BLAGGITY and MY HEAD IS MADE OF BLUEBERRY PIZZA! That's the rule. That's the deal. Brilliantly irreverent and very, very silly, The Book With No Pictures will delight kids and have them begging for more. From award-winning US comic writer and actor, B.J. Novak.

Obrazy ve vodě / Pictures in Water
Blanka Lamrová (nar. 1949) pochází z umělecké rodiny keramiků z Litovle na Hané, její bratr a sestra jsou malíři a ona sama se jako profesionální fotografka celý život věnovala fotografování uměleckých děl.
V knižní formě „Obrazy ve vodě“ je stovka pečlivě zvolených fotografií vodních hladin, které fotografka pořídila od konce osmdesátých let do současnosti. Cyklus rozdělila na témata Kaluže, Řeka a Moře. V černobílých a barevných záběrech snímaných různými fotoaparáty se zrcadlí umělecké nitro autorky i vnější realita v zrcadle vod.
Vidíme zde tedy dvojí zrcadlení, jež se navzájem prolíná do výtvarně vytříbených obrazů.

The History of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Pictures
Based on period documents and photography, the book maps in detail the development of Czech non-university sciences from the 18th century when the Society of Unknown Scholars in the Austrian Lands was founded in Olomouc. The main attention is focused on the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic and its most important precursors, whether the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, active in 1953–1992, or earlier institutions, such as the Czech Academy of Sciences and Arts (originally the Emperor Franz Joseph Czech Academy for Sciences, Literature and Arts), founded in 1890, or the Royal Bohemian Society of Learning, which existed already from the 18th century. Individual chapters are devoted also to Masaryk Academy of Labour and the main scientific institutions of the Germans living in the Czech lands – Gesellschaft zur Förderung Deutscher Wissenschaft, Kunst und Literatur in Böhmen (Society for the Support of German Sciences, Arts and Literature in Bohemia). Attention is, however, also devoted to our most important scientists with whose research results as well as the milieu in which they worked and work the reader is acquainted with through archival and contemporary sources. The patrons and sponsors who made it possible for Czech science to reach a global level are also not forgotten. The entire process of the development of Czech non-university science is places in the wider social context, which influenced the development of the scientific institutions and the position of scientists in them.

A Mercury Pictures bemutatja
A Mercury Pictures bemutatja hőse, Maria Lagana különleges, okos nő, aki Mussolini Olaszországából menekült Los Angelesbe, és a negyvenes évek Hollywoodjában próbál nemcsak érvényesülni, de boldogulni is. Egy időtlen történet szerelemről, hazugságról és önfeláldozásról.
1940-et írunk, Maria huszonnyolc éves, és a csőd szélén álló, a hollywoodi óriások árnyékában éppen csak vegetáló Mercury Pictures filmstúdió második embere. Tizenöt évvel korábban érkezett Amerikába az édesanyjával. Azért kellett elhagyniuk Olaszországot, mert az apját, aki Mussolini előtt jól menő ügyvéd volt Rómában, rendszerellenes tevékenység miatt Calabriába száműzte a fasiszta hatalom.
Amerika belép a háborúba, Hollywoodot, a filmstúdiókat elárasztják az európai menekültek. Azért elég furcsa világ ez: modernista költők próbálnak B filmekhez forgatókönyvet írni, egykor ünnepelt építészek díszletmakettekkel bíbelődnek, a menekült színészek pedig épp azokat a gonoszokat keltik életre, akik miatt el kellett hagyniuk a hazájukat.
Maria ebben az őrületben él, dolgozik, szeret, és mégis egy darabka épített Rómában, egy díszlet piazzán érzi magát a legotthonosabban a stúdióban és egész Amerikában...
Azután véget ér a háború... Talán helyre kerülnek a dolgok. Maria talán megbékül magával, az anyjával és talán az apja hiányával is... Az élet megy, zakatol tovább. Talán új dolgok kezdődnek. Talán...
A szerző számtalan, egymásnak gyakran ellentmondó, szélsőséges hangulat, érzés, indulat között jár-kel otthonos könnyedséggel, az olvasó pedig önfeledt örömmel követi, mert úgy érzi, hogy egy szívet-lelket gyönyörködtető, színes szélesvásznú kaland részese lehet.
Bulfinch's Mythology
This is an 1881 compilation of Thomas Bulfinch's previous writings: The Age of Fable, or Stories of Gods and Heroes (1855); The Age of Chivalry, or Legends of King Arthur (1858); and Legends of Charlemagne, or Romance of the Middle Ages (1863)."Our work is not for the learned, nor for the theologian, nor for the philosopher, but for the reader of English literature, of either sex, who wishes to comprehend the allusions so frequently made by public speakers, lecturers, essayists, and poets, and those which occur in polite conversation."
