In&,nbsp,World Order, Henry Kissinger - one of the leading practitioners of world diplomacy and author of&,nbsp,On China&,nbsp,- makes his monumental investigation into the 'tectonic plates' of global history and state relationsWorld Order&,nbsp,is the summation of Henry Kissinger's thinking about history, strategy and statecraft. As if taking a perspective from far above the globe, it examines the great tectonic plates of history and the motivations of nations, explaining the attitudes that states and empires have taken to the rest of the world from the formation of Europe to our own times.Kissinger identifies four great 'world orders' in history - the European, Islamic, Chinese and American. Since the end of Charlemagne's empire, and especially since the Peace of Westphalia in 1648, Europeans have striven for balance in international affairs, first in their own continent and then globally. Islamic states have looked to their destined expansion over regions populated by unbelievers, a position exemplified today by Iran under the ayatollahs. For over 2000 years the Chinese have seen 'all under Heaven' as being tributary to the Chinese Emperor. America views itself as a 'city on a hill', a beacon to the world, whose values have universal validity.How have these attitudes evolved and how have they shaped the histories of their nations, regions, and the rest of the world? What has happened when they have come into contact with each other? How have they balanced legitimacy and power at different times? What is the condition of each in our contemporary world, and how are they shaping relations between states now?To answer these questions Henry Kissinger draws upon a lifetime's historical study and unmatched experience as a world statesman. His account is shot through with observations about how historical change takes place, how some leaders shape their times and others fail to do so, and how far states can stray from the ideas which define them.&,nbsp,World Order&,nbsp,is a masterpiece of narrative, analysis and portraits of great historical actors that only Henry Kissinger could have written.HENRY KISSINGER&,nbsp,served in the US Army during the Second World War and subsequently held teaching posts in history and government at Harvard University for twenty years. He served as National Security Advisor and then Secretary of State under Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, and has advised many other American presidents on foreign policy. He received the 1973 Nobel Peace Prize, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and the Medal of Liberty, among other awards. He is the author of numerous books and articles on foreign policy and diplomacy, and is currently Chairman of Kissinger Associates, Inc., an international consulting firm.

Hranice - Kedy povedať nie, kedy povedať áno
Hranica v rôznych oblastiach nášho života vymedzuje, kto sa k nám smie priblížiť, pomáha nám rozhodnúť komu a čomu povieme nie alebo áno, či určiť vzťah k sebe samému. Hranica je rozhodnutie, ktorým definujeme veci a okolnosti, za ktoré sme zodpovední. Definuje, kto sme a kto nie sme. Kniha prináša biblický pohľad na hranice: čo hranice sú, čo chránia, ako sa vytvárajú, ako sú narušované, ako ich opraviť a ako ich využívať. Pomôže stanoviť či napraviť hranice vo vzťahu k našim blízkym – k rodine, partnerovi, deťom, v práci, ale aj k sebe samému a k Bohu.
