V roce 2012 se součástí Nakladatelství Slovart stalo nakladatelství Brio. Nakladatelství Brio vydávalo ve spolupráci s předními spisovateli a výtvarníky nádherně ilustrované originální příběhy a sbírky pohádek pro děti od šesti do dvanácti let. Pro starší děti, mládež a dospělé Brio nabízelo sebrané spisy pohádek a bajek od renomovaných spisovatelů, doplněné o to nejlepší z klasické literatury celého světa. V této tradici pokračujeme také my v rámci stejnojmenné edice.

A compelling exploration of generational divides informed by exclusive studies from around the world, by the author of The Perils of Perception.
Are we in the middle of a generational war? Are Millennials really entitled 'snowflakes'? Are Baby Boomers stealing their children's futures? Are Generation X the saddest generation? Will Generation Z fix the climate crisis?
Revealing and informative, The Generation Divide provides a bold new framework for understanding the most divisive issues raging today: from culture wars to climate change and mental health to housing. Including data from all over the globe, and with powerful implications for humanity's future, this big-thinking book will transform how you view the world.
Previously published as Generations.
Review
Startling, witty and erudite. This is a must-read, complete analysis of our times - a portrait of the way we live now in all its changing confusions down the generations. Read this to explode the myth of manufactured generational wars. ― Polly Toynbee, Guardian columnist
Indispensable... Bobby Duffy is among the most creative and prolific generational analysts anywhere in the world. ― Robert Putnam, Professor of Public Policy at Harvard University
Eye-catching and compelling. To get a reliable glimpse of the future it is essential to have clear picture of the present. Generations does it better than anything I've seen in recent years. ― Trevor Phillips, former Chair of The Commission for Equality and Human Rights
Excellent. Duffy convincingly and comprehensively punctures the myths around generations that have pigeon-holed people for decades. ― Dame Margaret Hodge, former Chair of the Public Accounts Committee
Brilliant. Duffy has built a powerful toolkit for understanding the forces and relationships that shape the world we live in - and the one our children will inherit. ― Rafael Behr, Guardian Columnist
The most comprehensive, compelling and careful account for how and why the generations diverge, come together and can better connect. ― Danny Dorling, Professor of Geography, Oxford University
One of the best books of 2021 ― The Times
A truly brilliant and engaging explanation of a new way to think about how and why we're changing. Duffy picks clever and often amusing examples to illustrate his analysis, while he also recognises the important concerns we all have about the future and our place in it. ― Dame Louise Casey, former Director General of the Department for Communities and Local Government
This important book deserves our attention. Duffy casts new light on the endlessly fascinating issue of what links the generations and how they differ. ― Lord David Willetts, author of The Pinch
An insightful read for those interested in understanding changing social attitudes and behaviour, and most importantly Duffy helps to bust damaging myths about generational stereotypes. ― Independent
