Introduction to Political Science Van Geest Fred Pevná vazba

- Evangelical Christian Publishers Association Top Shelf Book Cover Award 2017We are political beings and our lives are shaped by political institutions.

Introduction to Political Science: A Christian Perspective is an accessible guide to the study of politics. Written for students who may not have any prior knowledge about political life, this textbook provides a nonpartisan introduction to the key concepts, institutions, and policies that shape politics

Milka a jej monodramatické divadlo - Anton Kret

V čom spočíva nazameniteľnosť osobnosti Milky Zimkovej ako herečky? Duchovný svet a zovňajšok tejto neobyčajne sympatickej dámy, dynamické a procesné schopnosti jej intelektu tvoria ideálnu jednotu umelkyne, v ktorej akoby sa stretávali a navonok výrazné sa identifikovali všetky dialektické protirečenia moderného, s najnovšími civilizačnými výdobytkami sa vyrovnávajúceho, ale tradíciami duchovne i mentálne pozitívne ovplyvneného človeka, indivídua s rozvinutým intelektom, ale nevzdávajúceho sa svojich sladko-bôľných,zraňujúcich pút tradícií, občana žijúceho v meste, ale narodeného i odchovaného vidiekom, slovenskou dedinou, ktorá nepretvára v herečke ako bukolická rozpomienka a ani ako idyla, ale v celej svojej šírke, so všetkými svojimi prednosťami i nedostatkami, v celej svojej rozpornosti,dialektickosti a teda aj neuzavretej a neuzatvoriteľnej celistvosti. Zdravý životný optimizmus umelkyne vyrastá nie z uspokojovania sa a ani nie z pohodlníckeho prehliadania rozporov.Je to optimizmus silného jedinca a tzento optimizmus vyrastá z viery vo svoje sily, z presvedčenia, že smutné a tragické, čo je jedným z pólov života,možno prekonať prácou, vôľou, vytrvalosťou, poznaním života, neprižmurovaním očí nad mocou zla.Milka Zimková zvláda tajomstvo tragikomického v literatúre a kalokagatie v morálke. Jej postrehy sú neobyčajne bystré a vyznania vrúcne.Preto je jej umenie vlastné také optimistické, kým zasa jeho vnútorná sila vyviera z talentu.A ten je neodškriepiteľný.Číslo vydania 1Jazyky slovenskýPočet strán 80Dátum uvedenia titulu 2017-12-20Rozmery 207x205x10Hmotnosť 388gTypKnihy viazané

Field Marshal

Erwin Rommel was a complex man: a born leader, brilliant soldier, a devoted husband and proud father; intelligent, instinctive, brave, compassionate, vain, egotistical, and arrogant. In France in 1940, then for two years in North Africa, then finally back in France again, in Normandy in 1944, he proved himself a master of armored warfare, running rings around a succession of Allied generals who never got his measure and could only resort to overwhelming numbers to bring about his defeat.And yet for all his military genius, Rommel was also naive, a man who could admire Adolf Hitler at the same time that he despised the Nazis, dazzled by a Fuhrer whose successes blinded him to the true nature of the Third Reich. Above all, he was the quintessential German patriot, who ultimately would refuse to abandon his moral compass, so that on one pivotal day in June 1944 he came to understand that he had mistakenly served an evil man and evil cause. He would still fight for Germany even as he abandoned his oath of allegiance to the Fuhrer, when he came to realize that Hitler had morphed into nothing more than an agent of death and destruction. In the end Erwin Rommel was forced to die by his own hand, not because, as some would claim, he had dabbled in a tyrannicidal conspiracy, but because he had committed a far greater crime - he dared to tell Adolf Hitler the truth.In Field Marshal historian Daniel Allen Butler not only describes the swirling, innovative campaigns in which Rommel won his military reputation, but assesses the temper of the man who in the final reckoning fought only for his country, with no dark depths beyond.

Crossing the Darien Gap

If you ever plan to travel between North America and South America, you must consider that there is no road. Ten hours southeast of the Panama Canal, the Pan-American Highway penetrates the jungle, shrivels into a footpath and dies. The highway resurrects in Colombia, another continent. But the land between the two countries is a vast and primitive realm. On a map the two ends of the highway appear as two slivers of life, separated by the unknown. Filling this void is a rugged wilderness known as the Darien Rainforest. Because the Darien hinders all contact by land between North America and South America, it has earned the name "the Darien Gap." Yet most travelers never encounter the Darien Gap. When they go to South America they fly or perhaps take a boat. I decided to cross the Darien overland, traversing from Panama to Colombia by foot and

Your Health

First published in 1934, this new reprint of Your Health includes Joseph Pilates' early Twentieth Century philosophies, principles, and theories about health and fitness. He bases his work on the concept of a balanced body and mind, drawing on the approach espoused by the early Greeks. While some of his personal philosophies reflected early 20th Century viewpoints, his athletic and fitness doctrines were years ahead of his time. Readers will learn his observations and conclusions about people's approach to physical fitness. He describes the results of decades of scientific study, experimentation and research into the variety of troubles and ills that upset the balance of body and mind. Pilates makes extraordinary claims about the benefits of his defined science of "Contrology" and very specifically defines this science for all to read and understand. In this book, he exemplifies and clarifies the beneficial impact of his work.

Programs, Recursion and Unbounded Choice

This book is a complete account of the predicate transformation calculus semantics of sequential programs, including repetitions, recursive procedures, computational induction and unbounded nondeterminacy. Predicate transformation semantics are the best specification method for the development of correct and well-structured computer programs. The author develops this theory to a greater depth than has been achieved before, and describes it in a way that makes it readily compatible with programming rules for partial and total correctness of repetitions and recursive procedures, supplies new rules for proving incorrectness, and a stronger rule for proving that two programs satisfy the same specifications. Finally, the semantics are extended so that non-terminating programs can be specified as well. This will be essential reading for all computer scientists working in specification and verification of programs.

Cnut: England s Viking King 1016-35 Lawson M.K.

King Cnut ruled England from 1017 to 1035 and left behind him a legacy of peace, law and order. However, the beginnings of his kingship were less auspicious. He was a cruel and vicious warrior, who invaded England with his father Swegen Forkbeard, perhaps at a tender age. After Swegen's death in 1014 Cnut went home to Denmark to gather his forces. He returned the following year and conquered much of England in his bid for the Crown, but even on the death of Aethelred II the English refused to proclaim him king. However, his victory over the alternative candidate, Aethelred's son King Edmund Ironside, at the battle of Ashingdon, forced a division of the country between the two. Shortly afterwards, Edmund died and Cnut became undisputed

Cisár - Kapuściński Ryszard

„Chcel som napísať knižku o mechanizme diktatúry, o tom, aká je moc vo svojej podstate demoralizujúca, skorumpovaná a deformujúca,“ povedal o svojej knižke Cisár majster reportážneho žánru Ryszard Kapuściński.Autokratickí vládcovia, revolúcie, neznáme a vzdialené krajiny. To všetko spája knihy Ryszarda Kapuścińského, ktorý bol vždy v správnom čase na správnom mieste.Jeho kniha Cisár, to je na jednej strane vynikajúca reportážna sonda do hĺbky Etiópie pod neobmedzenou vládou cisára Hajle Sillaseho, a na strane druhej je to mimoriadne kvalitná próza prešpikovaná satirou a iróniou, ktoré sú Ryszardovi Kapuścińskému vlastné v každej jeho knihe.Etiópia v knihe Cisár je však najmä nadčasovou metaforou fungovania totalitných štátov po celom svete. Včerajších. Dnešných. A celkom iste aj tých zajtrajších.Cisár Ryszarda Kapuścińského vychádza v preklade Patrika Orieška.

Spectre of Sound: Music in Film and Television Donnelly Kevin Paperback

This major new study focuses on film music as a device that controls its audience by using emotion as a powerful tool. Kevin Donnelly emphasizes the manipulative and ephemeral character of film music. He discusses not only traditional orchestral film music but also film music's colonization of television and the relation of pop music and film.Film and Television Musicchallenges accepted notions of film music as restricted to film by looking at its use in television and its influence in the world of pop music. It questions traditional assumptions about "valued" film music, either from "name" composers or from the golden era of classical Hollywood.Focusing on topics as diverse as horror, pop music in film, ethnic signposting, television drama, and the soundtrack without a film, this original study introduces a range of new perspectives on one of the most complex and
