Publikowana korespondencja ukazuje wymiar współpracy i wspólnoty interesów dynastycznych, politycznych, kulturowych i religijnych pomiędzy Domem Wazów i Domem Austrii. Stanowi bazę dla analizy wzajemnych relacji pod kątem powinowactwa, emulacji i rywalizacji. Edycja listów tworzy pewnego rodzaju katalog ukazujący rolę i tożsamość Wazów w rozległym europejskim kontekście kulturowym i politycznym i może stanowić punkt wyjścia do dalszych studiów. Jednym z najważniejszych instrumentów za pomocą którego możemy obserwować i analizować te procesy są listy jakie między sobą wymieniali członkowie obu dynastii. Listy królewskie z podpisem, pieczęcią i ich treścią są trwałym świadectwem obecności i roli Polski w europejskiej kulturze w epoce nowożytnej.

You're fast asleep, and nothing is happening. Or is it? In fact, your body is hard at work. Your lungs are taking oxygen from the air, and your heart is pumping blood round your body. Millions of pieces of information are travelling backwards and forwards to your brain all the time. Muscles are repairing themselves, and in your lymph nodes special cells are cleaning germs and waste from the body. You may think that nothing is happening, but in the extraordinary machine that is the human body, it is very busy indeed . . .

The prepared scientific monograph entitled The importance of social innovations in the knowledge-based economy in the context of footwear sector solutions is an attempt to further exemplify social innovations by identifying real links between social need and a specific good, service, method and process, in the context of solutions used in the footwear industry. Poland is one of the leading European footwear manufacturers, ranking 7th in terms of production volume in the EU, with a market share of 2.5%. In addition, strong competition is observed in the industry, which is conducive to the emergence of new innovations. The work contains theoretical and practical references to innovations in the industry, such as examples of modifications of footwear materials that have been used in business practice, and their measurable effect is to improve the comfort of using footwear. The authors refer to the environmental aspects of innovation, indicating the directions of utilization of production residues of the footwear and tanning industry, including composites, granules, and biostimulants for plants. The subject matter taken up in the monograph is an important contribution to the development of further scientific research covering the footwear industry and its importance in developing social innovations in Poland and the world. Based on the obtained research results and statistical data analysis, we attempted to outline the prospects for the development of social innovations in the footwear industry until 2050. The book can be an interesting study for practitioners and theoreticians, particularly for scientists representing disciplines such as economics and finance, management sciences, materials engineering, or entrepreneurs looking for opportunities to finance innovation in various areas.

The Meaning of Constructions. The Cognitive Denial of the Lexicon-Syntax Division
Konrad Szcześniak
Książka dotyczy tradycyjnego podziału na leksykon i składnię zastąpionego w ostatnich dekadach modelem kontinuum (Lexicon-syntax continuum), w którym nie ma ostrej granicy między komponentami. Opracowanie rewiduje przesłanki (takie jak rozmycie granic między leksykonem i składnią), którymi kierują się obecnie językoznawcy odrzucający podział na leksykon i składnię. Celem opracowania jest wykazanie, że chociaż podział jest nieostry, jest nadal prawdziwy i ma konsekwencje dla elementów języka znajdujących się po obu jego stronach. Jedną z tych konsekwencji jest zróżnicowanie potencjału semantycznego form składniowych w porównaniu do form leksykalnych. Książka adresowana jest do językoznawców pracujących nad konstrukcjami gramatycznymi w ramach językoznawstwa kognitywnego, a w szczególności modelu gramatyki konstrukcji.

The main goal of the monograph is to present a proven method, based on a process approach, to define and improve the conditions of education at a higher education institution for individual disabilities. This is accompanied by the author's conviction that the developed and promoted method should define the obligations of each university in the field of ensuring access of PwD to higher education, and that the fulfillment of these obligations should be ensured by the law formulated in such a way that these obligations are explicitly indicated as absolute.
