    • Pokud vás fascinuje jedna z legend německých tankových vojsk a jeden z nejlepších tanků II. světové války, a nestojíte o stokrát přemílaná všeobecná fakta, sáhněte po této knize. Zachází až do extrémních detailů a bez přehánění se dozvíte o tomto více než důstojném protějšku ruského tanku T-34/85 to, co v jiných publikacích nenajdete. Technické detaily od samotných počátků vývoje tohoto stroje jdou do hloubky a nabízejí zasvěcená porovnání s jinými tanky té doby.

    • Uznávaný autor Alan Dean Foster se vrací do vesmíru, s nímž se poprvé setkal při oficiálním románovém přepisu původního filmu o vetřelci. Vetřelec - Covenant je klíčový příběh, který tomuto filmu předcházel a vede k událostem, z nichž se odvíjí jedna z nejděsivějších ság všech dob. Posádka kolonizátorské vesmírné lodi Covenant cestou ke vzdálené planetě na druhém konci galaxie objeví, jak se zprvu domnívá, ztracený ráj. Ve skutečnosti však jde o temný svět plný nebezpečí. Když narazí na hrozbu, která se vzpírá veškeré představivosti, musí se pokusit o riskantní útěk.

      Now a modern classic, Michael Green's Evangelism in the Early Church provides a comprehensive look at the ways the first Christians -- from the New Testament period up until the middle of the third century -- worked to spread the good news to the rest of the world.In describing life in the early church, Green explores crucial aspects of the evangelistic task that have direct relevance for similar work today, including methods, motives, and strategies. He assesses the strengths and weaknesses of the evangelistic approaches used by the earliest Christians, and he also considers the obstacles to evangelism, using outreach to Gentiles and to Jews as examples of differing contexts for proclamation. Carefully researched and frequently quoting primary sources from the early church, this book will both show contemporary readers what can be learned from the past and help renew their own evangelistic vision.

      Rozprávková kniha Zamatový králik sa radí ku klasickým a kanonickým dielam v rámci literatúry pre deti a mládež, pričom do zlatého fondu patria aj pôvodné ilustrácie Williama Nicholsona. Vo Veľkej Británii vyšla po prvý raz v roku 1921 a druhé americké vydanie o rok neskôr vo vydavateľstve George H. Doran Company s ilustráciami spomínaného W. Nicholsona prinieslo knihe zaslúžené široké uznanie. Zamatový králik je príbehom hračky, vypchaného králika, ktorý sa túži stať ozajstným, čo sa mu vďaka láske jeho majiteľa, malého chlapca, aj vyplní. Keď chlapec ochorie na šarlach, všetky jeho hračky musia byť spálené. Vďaka ozajstnej slze králika vyrastie kvet, z ktorého vystúpi víla, aby ho zachránila a navyždy premenila na ozajstného - teraz už pre všetkých. Rozprávka zdôrazňuje a potvrdzuje hodnoty dobra, dôležitosť empatie a lásky k okolitému svetu.

    • 'I was a happy teenager, content with my home, my academic success, my sporting achievements and my friendships. And I stumbled across the greatest friend of all, Jesus Christ. He is the treasure I have come to value above all else.I was not an emotional cripple looking for a crutch. I was not a romantic looking for a cause. I was not at the bottom of the pile hoping for a leg-up. I was not looking for anything in particular. But I found treasure, and that treasure has utterly transformed my life, my goals, my lifestyle ...'Michael Green shares his passion, reflections, convictions and suggestions from a lifetime of church and university missions, not to mention numerous informal encounters.A book to provoke, stimulate and inspire, but above all fire up every Christian for the urgent task of evangelism.

      A coarse actor is... - One who can remember their lines but not the order in which they come - One whose eyebrows are attached to their feet (so every facial expression involves the whole body as well) - One who limps on both legs simultaneously - One who knows everybody else's lines better than their own For 50 years, Michael Green's The Art of Coarse Acting has been essential reading for anyone with a passion for theatre. It's an outrageous spoof that punctures pretentiousness, pokes fun at incompetence, revels in disaster and lifts the lid on life backstage. As this special 50th anniversary edition proves, however much the theatre may change, Coarse Actors don't. Green's acerbic yet affectionate work remains one of the funniest books about acting ever written. For an alternate cover edition see: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

      Any Christian can talk about the Good News to a friend. Evangelism has even become a regular topic of conversation in religious circles. Furthermore, studies show that people who come to faith are more influenced by friends or family than anyone else. But still, there is surprisingly little action. So if we want to spread the word, we need to start talking! Here is the help that ordinary, everyday Christians are looking for. Sharing Your Faith with Friends and Family is an easy-to-read, practical guide for any Christian who wants to know more about spreading the word. Green shares useful advice on how to talk about Christ to those closest to us and offers answers and fulfillment to our current culture's questions and needs.

    • While there are many studies and commentaries on the book of Acts, few focus on the amazing achievement of the people found within its narrative. The first Christians chronicled in Acts turned the world upside down in the space of a generation. In this book Michael Green opens up the gripping story of Acts, highlighting the volcanic eruption of faith described there and comparing it to the often halfhearted Christianity of the modern Western world.Combining trusted scholarship with a popular, enjoyable writing style,  Thirty Years That Changed the World  is an ideal book for church, group, or personal study. Green explores the life and faith of the Christians of Acts, answering such questions as  What kind of people were they? How did they live?  and  How did they organize and practice as members of the new church?  Besides unveiling the nature of life in the early church, Green discusses how we today can apply the first Christians' dynamic efforts at church planting, pastoral care, social concern, gospel proclamation, and prayer.

      The entry of the US into World War II provided the Allies with the manufacturing and engineering might that finally gave them the ability to take the war to the German and Japanese forces across the world. During the course of the war, over 80,000 tanks were built by the Americans, almost twice what Germany and Britain built combined during the same period, and American tanks rapidly became the backbone of the Allied armored warfare effort against the Axis powers. The M4 Sherman, M3 Stuart and M3 Lee tanks poured out of American factories and onto battlefields providing the armoured fist that allowed the Allies to turn the tide of the battle. Although less heralded than their tank output, the American heavy armour was ably supported by a dizzying array of Armoured Fighting Vehicles (AFVs) and variants, half-tracks and armoured cars, self propelled artillery, tank destroyers, armoured recovery vehicles, amphibian tractors and tracked landing vehicles or Amtracs. Highly illustrated and meticulously researched, 'American Tanks & AFVs of World War II' details the full range of vehicles used during the war.

      Back in print after 20 years, this text from the earliest days of psychedelia chronicles the experiences on 16 acid trips taken before LSD was illegal. The trip guides or "high priests" included Aldous Huxley, Ram Dass, Ralph Meltzner, Huston Smith and a junkie from New York City named Willy. It tells of the goings-on and freaking out at the Millbrook mansion in New York State that became the Mecca of psychedelia during the 1960s, and of the many luminaries who made their pilgrimage there to trip with Leary and his group. Chapters include an I Ching reading and a chronicle of what happened during those "spacewalks" of the mind.

    • Though countless Christians through the ages have confessed, "I believe in the Holy Spirit," the Spirit has often remained a shadowy figure, relegated to the fringes of many Christians' faith. In some quarters, however, the rise of the charismatic movement has made the Holy Spirit a focus of heated controversy. In this updated edition of his widely popular book, Michael Green traces the doctrine of the Holy Spirit through the Bible, discusses the baptism and gifts of the Spirit, and addresses the dynamic, ongoing work of the Spirit in today's church and world. Enriched by Green's extensive teaching, pastoral, and personal experience, I Believe in the Holy Spirit remains one of the clearest, most balanced books ever written on this subject.
