The 48 Laws Of Power
Drawn from 3,000 years of the history of power, this is the definitive guide to help readers achieve for themselves what Queen Elizabeth I, Henry Kissinger, Louis XIV and Machiavelli learnt the hard way. Law 1: Never outshine the master Law 2: Never put too much trust in friends; learn how to use enemies Law 3: Conceal your intentions Law 4: Always say less than necessary. The text is bold and elegant, laid out in black and red throughout and replete with fables and unique word sculptures. The 48 laws are illustrated through the tactics, triumphs and failures of great figures from the past who have wielded - or been victimised by - power.
The Fragile Threads of Power
Launching a new trilogy in the Shades of Magic universe, an enchanting and thrilling epic fantasy from the international sensation, V. E. Schwab, perfect for fans of Samantha Shannon, Kerri Maniscalco, Leigh Bardugo and R.
F. Kuang. Seven years have passed since the doors between the worlds were sealed.
Seven years since Kell, Lila and Holland stood against Osaron, a desperate battle that saved the worlds of Red, Grey and White London. Seven years since Kell's magic was shattered, and Holland lost his life. Now Rhy Maresh rules Red London with his new family - his queen, Nadiya, their daughter Ren, and his consort, Alucard.
But his city boils with conspiracy and rebellion, fuelled by rumours he is causing magic to fade from the word. Now Kosika, a child Antari, sits on the throne of White London. The new queen leads her people in new rituals of sacrifice and blood in devotion to the altar of Holland Vosijk, summoning vast power she may not be able to control.
Now Lila and Kell, living free on the waves, are charged by the captain of the Floating Market to retrieve an immensely powerful artefact, stolen by secretive forces. Now Tes, a young woman with a knack for fixing broken things, is thrust into the affairs of Antari and kings, traitors and thieves. And only her unique powers can weave the threads of power together.
A triumphant return to the worlds of The Shades of Magic, The Fragile Threads of Power continues the stories of fan-favourite characters Kell, Lila, Rhy and Alucard, and introduces a new generation of magic, shadows and embers in the dark.

The Education of an Idealist
'Her highly personal and reflective memoir ... is a must-read for anyone who cares about our role in a changing world' Barack Obama
THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY:
The New York Times * Time * The Economist * The Washington Post * Vanity Fair * Times Literary Supplement
'What can one person do?' In this vibrant, galvanizing memoir, human rights advocate and Pulitzer-Prize winning writer Samantha Power offers an urgent response to this question.
As she traces her path from Irish immigrant to war correspondent and activist to eventually becoming the youngest-ever US Ambassador to the United Nations, Power writes with a unique blend of suspenseful storytelling, vivid character portraits and disarming honesty.
Her account illuminates the challenges of navigating the halls of power while trying to put one's ideals into practice (and raise two young children along the way), and it shows how - even in the face of daunting challenges - each of us can make a difference.

Marr Johnny - Spirit Power: The Best Of Johnny Marr CD
John Martin Marr (narodený ako Maher, 31. októbra 1963) je anglický hudobník, skladateľ a spevák. Prvýkrát sa preslávil ako gitarista a spoluskladateľ skupiny Smiths, ktorí pôsobili v rokoch 1982 až 1987. Odvtedy vystupoval s mnohými ďalšími kapelami a vydal sa na sólovú dráhu. Bol súčasťou niekoľkých kapiel s Andym Rourkem predtým, ako v roku 1982 založili Smiths s Morrisseym. štýl popovej gitary sa stal výraznou súčasťou zvuku kapely, ale v roku 1987 sa rozišiel kvôli osobným rozdielom medzi Marrom a Morrisseyom. Odvtedy je Marr členom skupín Pretenders, The, Electronic, Modest Mouse a Cribs a stal sa z neho plodný session hudobník, ktorý spolupracuje s menami ako Kirsty MacColl, Pet Shop Boys, Talking Heads, Bryan Ferry. a Hans Zimmer. V roku 2010 bol Marr zvolený za štvrtého najlepšieho gitaristu za posledných 30 rokov v ankete BBC. V roku 2013 NME ocenilo Marra cenou „Godlike Genius“: „Neuspokojil sa s prepisovaním histórie hudby s jednou z najväčších svetových kapiel všetkých čias, Smiths, pokračoval v posúvaní hraníc a vyvíjal sa počas svojej kariéry, pričom spolupracoval s niektorými z najlepších a najvzrušujúcejších umelcov na planéte.“

Titan 2: The Power - A hatalom
Minden nagy változás küzdelemmel jár.
A Szövetségi Egyetem harctérré változott: összecsapnak a tisztavérűek és a félvérek, akik követelik a saját végzetük feletti uralom jogát. A sors azonban más terveket tartogat. Tetőfokára hág az erőszak, és elkerülhetetlennek tűnik a fajok közti háború – éppen a legrosszabbkor. Hüperiónt ugyan legyőzték, de Josie és Seth is tudja, hogy csak haladékot nyertek. Sethnek fel kell készítenie Josie-t a harcra, akinek uralnia kell új képességeit, és meg kell találniuk a többi félistent is, mielőtt a titánok rájuk bukkannának.
Az istenek azonban még náluk is nagyobb fenyegetéstől tartanak.
Egy csordányi kiéhezett titánnál csak egy fékevesztett apollüón veszélyesebb. A Josie-ban rejlő aether erősen vonzza Sethet. Mikor a vágy és a szerelem utat ad a hatalomnak, tudja, hogy Josie közelsége nemcsak a lányra, hanem mindenkire nézve veszélyes, de Josie elengedéséhez olyan önzetlenségre van szükség, ami nem Seth stílusa. A múlt ösvénye a jövő útjává válik. A titánveszély pusztító következményekkel jár, és a hatalom sötét csábítása ismét befonja Sethet. Josie ezúttal talán nem tudja őt visszatartani.
Hatalom és szerelem harca. Éld át az izgalmait!

The Future of Geography: How Power and Politics in Space Will Change Our World
Space: the biggest geopolitical story of the coming century – new from the multi-million-copy international bestselling author of Prisoners of Geography
Spy satellites orbiting the Moon. Space metals worth billions. Humans on Mars within our lifetimes.
This isn’t science fiction. It’s astropolitics.
We’re entering a new space race – and it could revolutionise life on Earth.
Space: the new frontier, a wild and lawless place. It is already central to communication, economics, military strategy and international relations on Earth. Now, it is the latest arena for human exploration, exploitation – and, possibly, conquest. We’re heading up and out, and we’re taking our power struggles with us. China, the USA and Russia are leading the way.
From physical territory and resources to satellites, weaponry and strategic choke points, geopolitics is as important in the skies above us as it is down below. If you’ve ever wondered if humans are going back to the Moon, who will benefit from exploration or what space wars might look like, the answers are here.
With all the insight and wit that have made Tim Marshall the UK’s most popular writer on geopolitics, this gripping book shows how we got here and where we’re going, covering great-power rivalry; technology; commerce; combat in space; and what it means for all of us down here on Earth. This is essential reading on power, politics and the future of humanity.

Lacná kniha The Power of Humanity (-70%)
The nastiest aspect of the Second World War was the industry with which Germany and its allies - and in its turn the USSR - attacked not only the armies opposing them but also the civilian populations in the rear. Depredations against helpless civilians have a history as long as warfare itself, but this time cruelty plumbed new depths. The extirpation of the European Jews was scarcely below the demand for Lebensraum on Hitler's agenda, and as the war turned against him it became priority.
European anti-Semitism is deeply rooted, traditional rather than rational even in the Hungary of today. Szabolcs Szita makes it clear that although Nazism was the driving force much of the damage to Hungarian Jewry was done by Hungarians, in particular the police and gendarmerie and most of all the Arrow-Cross party. He also makes it clear, however, that many Hungarians had no part in it, and that in Budapest at least some gave active expression to their disapproval, frequently thereby risking their lives. Led by the courageous Swedish diplomat Raoul Wallenberg, posted to Budapest expressly for the purpose, a nucleus of neutral diplomats, Red Cross staff and sympathetic Hungarians strove against the Fascist terror and saved thousands of Jewish lives.
This book commemorates both those that have no memorial, who are vanished as though they had never been, and Wallenberg himself, ultimately the victim of the honest decency which he expected to find in others too.

The term “flower power” is an expression associated with the peace movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s.

In fashion, flower power represents a striking style, using lots of strong and contrasting colours and bold, flowery imagery.
This second volume in the PEPIN series contains more than 100 reproductions of typical flower power designs, as well as photographs of many amazing and beautiful flower power garments, such as flared trousers, tent dresses, jumpsuits and mini skirts.

Vůbec první kriminální případ soukromého detektiva Jareše a začíná ještě v době, kdy býval policistou. Při hledání uprchlého vězně, podezřelého z vraždy luxusní prostitutky, Jareš nevědomky rozkryje pašeráckou síť obchodníků s kradenými starožitnými obrazy, kteří mají informátora a ochránce v policejních kruzích. Odhalit takovou pravdu znamená smrtelné nebezpečí, nikoliv potrestání zločinců. Jareše vyhodí od policie, jeho protivníci proti němu hrají špinavou přesilovou hru, která ho málem zničí, ale nakonec se mu podaří zcela soukromě zaklapnout past za jedním ministerským úředníkem a zkorumpovaným policistou, kteří vybudovali svou kariéru na spojenectví s podsvětím.

The Making of the Modern Middle East
Jeremy Bowen, the International Editor of the BBC, has been covering the Middle East since 1989 and is uniquely placed to explain its complex past and its troubled present.
In The Making of the Modern Middle East – in part based on his acclaimed podcast, ‘Our Man in the Middle East’ – Bowen takes us on a journey across the Middle East and through its history. He meets ordinary men and women on the front line, their leaders, whether brutal or benign, and he explores the power games that have so often wreaked devastation on civilian populations as those leaders, whatever their motives, jostle for political, religious and economic control.
With his deep understanding of the political, cultural and religious differences between countries as diverse as Erdogan’s Turkey, Assad’s Syria and Netanyahu’s Israel and his long experience of covering events in the region, Bowen offers readers a gripping and invaluable guide to the modern Middle East, how it came to be and what its future might hold.
