Kriminalistická historie ostravského regionu vydává další svědectví, ze kterých tuhne krev v žilách. Tentokrát se vydáte po stopách nelítostných zabijáků plánujících popravu, násilnického stalkera i vražd s mafiánským rukopisem. Před očima vám ožije bestiální mord bílého koně, zločiny mezi rodinnými příslušníky, vraždy z vášně i případ smrtící prostitutky. Více než dvě desítky hrůzných činů z oblasti Ostravska vám ukážou, kolik krutosti se může v lidech skrývat. Jestli máte dost odvahy, pusťte se do čtení.
This book juxtaposes national anthems of thirteen countries from central Europe, with the aim of initiating a dialogue among the peoples of East-Central Europe. We tend to perceive a national anthem as a particular mirror, involuntarily reflecting an image of nation and homeland; but how does it represent the community for whom it sounds? To answer this question, the book deploys a comparative approach – anthems are presented in the light of those of neighbouring countries, with the conviction that one of the key features of true Europeanness is good relations between neighbours. The development trajectory of the modern nation is the context in which the book examines the history of such national symbols, alongside the symbolic content of poetry, images of the homeland and nation depicted in the anthems, as well as the sometimes longer processes which led to the adoption and legal codification of current state symbols. The Anthems of East-Central Europe will be a great resource for researchers, journalists, college and university students, politicians trying to impact emigrees from this region and emigrees themselves.
Z intelektuální linie české literatury Pod souborným názvem Má písmena představuje Česká knižnice čtveřici žánrově odlišných, avšak motivicky provázaných textů Milady Součkové. Zvolený titul zvýznamňuje ústřední téma autobiografické linie autorčiny tvorby — vlastní akt psaní. Již v prozaickém debutu První písmena (1934) — zakládajícím rezervoár scén a motivů, k nimž se bude autorka vracet — se písmo stává médiem vzpomínky. Působivého modernistického propojení slova a obrazu je využito v básnické skladbě Mluvící pásmo — apokalyptické vizi zániku euroamerické civilizace —, která zde vychází společně s reprintem p...
Starburst regions in nearby and distant galaxies have a profound impact on our understanding of the early universe. This new, substantially updated and extended edition of Norbert Schulz’s unique book "From Dust to Stars" describes complex physical processes involved in the creation and early evolution of stars. It illustrates how these processes reveal themselves from radio wavelengths to high energy X-rays and gamma–rays, with special reference towards high energy signatures. Several sections devoted to key analysis techniques demonstrate how modern research in this field is pursued and new chapters are introduced on massive star formation, proto-planetary disks and observations of you...
Published under the auspices of the Royal Astronomical Society, this volume contains a set of extensive school tested lectures, with the aim to give a coherent and thorough background knowledge of the subject and to introduce the latest developments in N-body computational astrophysics. The topics cover a wide range from the classical few-body problem with discussions of resonance, chaos and stability to realistic modelling of star clusters as well as descriptions of codes, algorithms and special hardware for N-body simulations. This collection of topics, related to the gravitational N-body problem, will prove useful to both students and researchers in years to come.

A few years after the publication of The Physics of Star Formation and Early Stellar Evolution, we received a request from the publisher for an up dated second edition of this popular reference book. As originally intended, the volume had proved to be a useful "text" book for graduate astronomy courses and seminars which dealt with topics related to stellar origins. The book was based on a series of lectures delivered by a distinguished group of leading researchers at a NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) held in May 1990 on the island of Crete, Greece. The primary goal of the ASI was in fact to produce a book which "would simultaneously provide a broad and systematic overview of, as well as...
An accelerating convergence of interests of particle physics and modern experimental and theoretical astrophysics has been witnessed in the past few years. One of the focal points is the observation and phenomenological characterization of Dark Matter from Galactic to the large scale structure of the Universe. Particle physics provides detailed predictions for the cosmological impact of various dark matter candidates. The other central subjects are neutrino astronomy and cosmic ray reactions which provide valuable information both on stellar structure (solar neutrinos) and on the nature of extreme high energy particle interactions. The lectures presented here represent important new contributions to all these fields.
