Dějiny 20. století
ISBN: 9788073358396 / Czeski / 2022 / 846 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Johnsonovy DĚJINY 20. STOLETÍ představují strhující příběh úděsného věku velkých technických vynálezů, ohromného bohatství i nekonečné bídy a teroru.
Kniha vzbudila velký rozruch na Západě nejen proto, že je mistrně napsána, ale hlavně tím, jak nemilosrdně odhaluje pravdu všem levicovým intelektuálům tak nepohodlnou. Všude, kde se prosadil ideologický stát, vládne korupce myšlení, teror nebo útlak. Všude, kde stát zasahuje do tržního mechanismu, či se dokonce stává neosobním ?majitelem? hospodářství, vládnou úplatky, demoralizace a... Johnsonovy DĚJINY 20.

Napoleon
ISBN: 9788073641245 / Czeski / 2021 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Jen málokterý jednotlivec dokázal ovlivnit dějiny zásadněji než Napoleon Bonaparte. I když byl u moci jen po desetiletí a půl, jeho vliv nepřestal být patrný dodnes a mnoho lidí stále obdivuje jeho nezdolnou vůli.
Jednou z hlavních tezí Johnsonovy knihy je, že Bonaparte nebyl ideolog, nýbrž oportunista, kterému se podařilo využít dějinné náhody Francouzské revoluce k tomu, aby se vyšvihl na vrchol moci. Poté rozpoutal v Evropě nejničivější války, jaké starý světadíl do té doby zažil. Vůbec poprvé hrály v obrovském růstu armád...

Quantum Theatre: Science and Contemporary Performance
ISBN: 9781443841139 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 205 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Quantum Theatre uses the science of quantum mechanics to construct a rigorous framework for examining performance practice and the theatrical event, and live performance as a means of exploring the implications of quantum mechanics. Key ideas from physics are used to develop an interdisciplinary approach to writing about the work of a number of British theatre practitioners in terms of identity, observation and play. What this type of analysis does is enable an examination of aspects of performance that can remain hidden and so cast new light on the performance event. This is the first study...

Dějiny židovského národa
ISBN: 9788073357634 / Czeski / 2021 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Dějiny Židů jsou svého druhu dějiny světa, ovšem viděné pod velmi neobvyklým úhlem, očima inteligentní a vzdělané oběti. Johnsonovi však jde ještě o víc: ukázat podstatu samé historie a křesťanské civilizace. Žádný národ netrval nikdy s větší neochvějností než Židé na tom, že dějiny mají účel a lidstvo osud. Od nepaměti se drželi této víry tváří v tvář strašnému utrpení. Jejich víra a osud daly vzniknout mnoha velkolepým projektům pro lidstvo, vzniklým jak z božské inspirace, tak vytvořených člověkem. S jistou nadsázkou lze...
