Neľahký deň Mark Owen, Kevin Maurer

Neľahký deň je správa o príprave a realizácii vpádu do obydlia bin Ládina od očitého svedka, príslušníka NAVY SEAL, ktorý sa s teroristickým vodcom stretol a bol pri posledných okamihoch jeho života.Mark Owen zo Špeciálnej námornej jednotky rýchleho nasadenia USA, známej ako SEAL Team 6, sa zúčastnil na viacerých špeciálnych operáciách, ako aj na mnohých misiách, ktoré sa nikdy nedostali na predné strany novín. Diali sa v uliciach miest Iraku, v Indickom oceáne pri záchrane kapitána Richarda Phillipsa, v horách Afganistanu – a aj na treťom podlaží obytného komplexu Usámu bin Ládina.Neľahký deň umožní čitateľovi stať sa spolu s Owenom a ostatnými vybranými príslušníkmi dvadsaťštyričlenného tímu svedkom prípravy na najväčšiu misiu ich života. Detailný opis vpádu od havárie vrtuľníka, ktorá Owena takmer stála život, až po rádiové hlásenie potvrdzujúce bin Ládinovu smrť predstavujú významnú kapitolu moderných dejín.Autor sprevádza čitateľa aj na miesta neutíchajúceho boja Ameriky proti terorizmu a zoznamuje ho s podrobnosťami výberového a výcvikového procesu elitnej jednotky ozbrojených síl. Owen, ktorý vyrastal na Aljaške, zasvätene opisuje činnosť príslušníkov SEAL pri zdolávaní prekážok na najvyššej úrovni fyzickej a mentálnej záťaže. S realistickými podrobnosťami približuje priebeh niektorých doteraz nezverejnených misií dokumentujúcich život a prácu príslušníka elitnej jednotky, ako aj vývoj tímu po udalostiach z 11. septembra.V pravdivom príbehu príslušníkov SEAL, ktorých nadanie, schopnosti, skúsenosti a mimoriadne obete viedli k jednému z najväčších víťazstiev v boji proti terorizmu, vzdáva Mark Owen hold mužom, ktorí pre bezpečnosť svojej krajiny riskujú všetko.Z anglického originálu No Easy Day (Dutton, Penguin Group, New York 2012) preložila Henrieta Hatalová.

Technokratismus

Kapitalismus coby systém založený primárně na bezohledném zvětšování zisku je překonaný, stejně jako jsou překonané vlastnické struktury, které s klasickým kapitalismem nebo tržním hospodářstvím souvisely. Ekonomický systém, který dnes funguje globálně, nepohání v prvé řadě snaha generovat zisk, ale logika technovědy, která tržní systém ovládla.Kapitalismus byl skutečně ve své rané podobě i v klasické modernitě poháněn primárně snahou o co největší tvorbu zisku. Technické a vědecké inovace všeho druhu byly po dlouhou dobu především prostředky ke zvyšování zisku skrze větší konkurenceschopnost. Jenže v posledních několika dekádách byla tato logika postupně obrácena na hlavu, technověda se zmocnila samotné podstaty kapitalismu, kolonizovala ho.Změnily se i formy vlastnictví. Nadnárodní korporace nemají konkrétní vlastníky, kteří by je řídili a tlačili směrem k maximálnímu generování zisku, nýbrž jsou ve vlastnictví stále se měnící skupiny akcionářů. Řídí je manažerské struktury, jejichž primárním zájmem je nikoli maximalizace zisku, ale dlouhodobá stabilita firmy. Nejen z hlediska technických inovací jako absolutního základu technologického pokroku (a tím i ekonomického růstu), ale také z hlediska vlastnické a manažerské organizační struktury se radikálně mění paradigma celé globální ekonomiky.Osobní vlastnictví se mění v akciové (veřejné) vlastnictví, vlastnictví podniku se odděluje od jeho řízení a správy. Vzniká technostruktura (manažerská technická a administrativní vrstva) de facto řídící podnik, která zaujímá klíčovou roli v ekonomice. Oddělení vlastnictví od řízení a správy podniku je největší změnou, která se v éře kapitalismu odehrála. Ekonomika, kterou řídí někdo jiný než kapitalista (technostruktura), již není kapitalistickou ekonomikou, ale novou, jinou ekonomikou. My pro ni razíme název technokratismus podle nového skutečného vládce ekonomiky, technostruktury.

How to Be Perfect Padgett RonPaperback

"Ron Padgett makes the most quiet and sensible of feelings a provocatively persistent wonder."--Robert CreeleyRon Padgett has reenergized modern poetry with exuberant and tender love poems, with exceptionally lucid and touching elegies, and with imaginative and action-packed homages to American culture and visual art. He has paid tribute to Woody Woodpecker and the West, to friends and collaborators, to language and cowslips, to beautiful women and chocolate milk, to paintings and small-time criminals. His poems have always imparted a contagious sense of joy.In these new poems, Padgett hasn't forsaken his beloved Woody Woodpecker, but he has decided to heed the canary and sound the alarm. Here, he asks, "What makes us so mean?" And he really wants to know. Even as these poems cajole and question, as they call attention to what has been lost and what we still stand to

Čo je človek? Teologická antropológia Edita Steinová

Edita Steinová (1891 – 1942) – filozofka a rehoľná sestra (karmelitánka) mala v úmysle svoje prednášky na Nemeckom inštitúte pre vedeckú pedagogiku v zimnom semestri 1932/33 na tému filozofickej antropológie doplniť v ďalšom semestri prednáškami z teologickej antropológie, bez ktorej je, podľa nej, chápanie človeka a jeho bytia vo svete neúplné. Na to však už v dôsledku politickej situácia nemala možnosť. Zostali preto v rukopise, ktorý vyšiel tlačou až po 2. sv. vojne v neúplnej podobe.Spis Čo je človek?, Teologická antropológia predstavuje fundovanú prácu o obraze človeka ako je obsiahnutý v katolíckej dogmatike a učení o viere. Edita Steinová v ňom na základe dôkladného štúdia problematiky podáva obraz človeka ako jednoty duše, ducha a tela, bytosti obdarenej rozumom, slobodnou vôľou a milosťou, schopnej poznania pravdy a dobra. Popisuje človeka v štádiách stvorenia, pádu a Vykúpenia, rozoberá problematiku milosti a sviatostí ako základu duchovného života človeka a kriticky vystupuje proti tzv. modernistom. Načrtnuté myšlienky rozvíja neskôr ďalších prácach. Dielo umožňuje pohľad do hĺbky filozoficko-teologického myslenia Edity Steinovej a ukazuje ju ako významnú mysliteľku našej doby.Číslo vydania 1Jazyky slovenskýPočet strán 216Dátum uvedenia titulu 2018-09-04Rozmery 212x130x22Hmotnosť 314gTypKnihy viazané

Buddha and the Borderline - My Recovery from Borderline Personality Disorder Through Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Buddh...

Kiera Van Gelder's first suicide attempt at the age of twelve marked the onset of her struggles with drug addiction, depression, post-traumatic stress, self-harm, and chaotic romantic relationships-all of which eventually led to doctors' belated diagnosis of borderline personality disorder twenty years later. The Buddha and the Borderline is a window into this mysterious and debilitating condition, an unblinking portrayal of one woman's fight against the emotional devastation of borderline personality disorder. This haunting, intimate memoir chronicles both the devastating period that led to Kiera's eventual diagnosis and her inspirational recovery through therapy, Buddhist spirituality, and a few online dates gone wrong. Kiera's story sheds light on the private struggle to transform suffering into compassion for herself and others, and is essential reading for all seeking to understand what it truly means to recover and reclaim the desire to live.
