For Valerie - David French
In June 2019, Valerie French Kilroy was brutally murdered by her husband at their home near Westport, while her three young sons lay in bed. She was the third woman to lose her life at the hands of a partner in Ireland that year. For her brother David and the rest of her family it was the beginning of a battle against a system unprepared to protect the three innocent children whose father remains their legal guardian, despite being convicted of their mother’s murder. From the shock of hearing of his sister''s death and the immediate aftermath to the multiple criminal trials before the guilty verdict was delivered, David provides a unique insight into some of the issues faced by victim’s families in the aftermath of fatal domestic violence. With every chapter, For Valerie confronts the darkest corners of grief, the love that endures beyond loss and the fierce determination of a family to preserve Valerie’s legacy. This is a tribute to her life, and a journey no reader will soon forget.

Socialism for Today - David M. Kotz
Capitalism is failing us. Instead of bringing a decent life for the majority, it generates an outrageous gap between the rich and the rest, unaffordable housing, a profit-driven healthcare system, skyrocketing educational debt, racial and gender inequality, and the threat of climate disaster. Economist David Kotz argues that itÂ’s time we built a new socialism for the unique challenges of the twenty-first century.The problems of capitalism are too profound for reform, Kotz writes. Reform can help, but only temporarily, and not for all. Nor can we turn back to the socialist experiments of the twentieth century. But we can learn from those experiments, both their successes and failures, to build a democratic and participatory economic and political system. The result would be a sustainable future of economic justice, equality, material comfort, human development, and meaningful freedom. The journey towards a new socialism may be difficult. But Kotz combines a clear and rigorous account of how socialism can be made to work with a realistic strategy for how to get there. This is the book we need to help us escape the cruelties of our capitalist present.

From a small, picturesque farmhouse in the rich fields and meadows of Normandy, David Hockney followed the changing seasons across 2020 and into the new year. He used his iPad to spontaneously depict impressions of the landscape surrounding him, catching the first spring blossoms, the smell of summer, the saturated colors of autumn, and the stark shapes of dark branches in winter time. The 220 (plus four bonus) iPad paintings in this book are printed with six colors to match the richness of the artist’s vision. A short introduction by Hockney reveals how this planned project became a lifeline during the COVID lockdown, from which he spread his message of hope: “Remember they can’t cancel the spring.â€

Neighbours and relatives called me names. I have been a ''Queer Cartoonist'' for over 40 years and throughout this time I have been as serious, as angry, as funny, camp, and ridiculous as I can possibly be, sometimes all at the same time, beause it''s how I see my job, and my duty as a gay man. I''ve always made LGBTQI+ cartoons and been lucky enough to have had them regularly published. I have played a central part in them, sometimes as a character or narrator, exploring gay politics from the inside perspective, which means I can criticise governments, health education offices, the church, the police, anything that is bigoted, and still laugh at myself. Attacking the haters, fighting, and trying to protect my community through my cartoons, one tiny square at a time. This anagram of a book, is a vaguely chronological patchwork of forty(ish) personal stories, that don''t bear too much factual scrutiny, yet are as real and honest as need be, following the trials of Coming Out, the Age of Consent, family rejection, dodgy boyfriends, shaky career prospects, police swoops, the enemy without, queer bashers, the stern presence of HIV/AIDS, the loathsome Section 28,the friends, the outrage and outrageous, the fun, the sex, the scene, Love, Equal Marriage and bereavement... This is my History, it is the history of every 70 year old gay man in Britain today. FORTY LIES=LIFE STORY. Basically, a Comic Book, with knitting patterns.

Adventures of a Young Naturalist - Sir David Attenborough
WITH A NEW FOREWORD BY DARA McANULTYTHE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER''His writing is as impressive and as enjoyable as his TV programmes and there can be no higher praise'' Daily Express''A marvellous book . . . unputdownable . . . utterly engaging'' Daily TelegraphIn 1954, a young television presenter named David Attenborough was offered the opportunity of a lifetime - to travel the world finding rare and elusive animals for London Zoo''s collection, and to film the expeditions for the BBC.Now ''the greatest living advocate of the global ecosystem'' this is the story of the voyages that started it all. Staying with local tribes while trekking in search of giant anteaters in Guyana, Komodo dragons in Indonesia and armadillos in Paraguay, he and the rest of the team battled with cannibal fish, aggressive tree porcupines and escape-artist wild pigs, as well as treacherous terrain and unpredictable weather, to record the incredible beauty and biodiversity of these regions. The methods may be outdated now, but the fascination and respect for the wildlife, the people and the environment - and the importance of protecting these wild places - is not.Written with his trademark wit and charm, Adventures of a Young Naturalist is not just the story of a remarkable adventure, but of the man who made us fall in love with the natural world, and who is still doing so today.** Praise for Sir David Attenborough **''A great educator as well as a great naturalist'' Barack Obama''Sir David is a wizard of television, and, like Gandalf or Dumbledore, he has a near-magical gift for combining warmth and gravitas . . . the man who, for me, exemplifies the best in British broadcasting'' Louis Theroux''When I was a young boy I used to love turning on the television and watching David''s programmes and really feeling like I was either back out in Africa or I was learning about something magical and almost out of this planet'' Prince William

Good to Eat - David Atherton
100 fresh, healthy pescatarian recipes.'People often think that healthy eating means restricting foods or counting calories. But for me this form of 'healthy eating' was not sustainable. Plus, it was dull. I hated cutting out the food I loved best - bread, cake, pizza, Yorkshire puddings! That realization changed how I approached food. Food should be healthy, but so should our relationship with food. So instead of depriving myself of my favorite dishes, I found new, easy ways to make them better for me.' - David AthertonGOOD TO EAT is a book that indulges our craving for baked goods, filling foods and sustaining meals but leaves us feeling good. With a few simple tweaks - like using root veg to minimize the use of sugar or trying a plant-based alternative - you can enjoy what you love to eat while nourishing your body. Food is one of the longest relationships of our lives and what we put on the plate should be more important than what we are leaving off it.With 100 exciting new recipes from the 2019 Great British Baking Show winner GOOD TO EAT promises fresh and filling suppers, sweet treats with a healthy spin, hearty salads to pick and mix, soups and more. David will leave you eating and living well.

Behavioural Economics - David Orrell
The controversial science that claims to have revolutionised economics.For centuries, economics was dominated by the idea that we are rational individuals who optimise our own ''utility''. Then, in the 1970s, psychologists demonstrated that the reality is a lot messier. We don''t really know what our utility is, and we care about people other than ourselves. We are susceptible to external nudges. And far from being perfectly rational we are prone to ''cognitive biases'' with complex effects on decision-making, such as forgetting to prepare for retirement. David Orrell explores the findings from psychology and neuroscience that are shaking up economics - and that are being exploited by policy-makers and marketers alike, to shape everything from how we shop for food, to how we tackle societal happiness or climate change. Finally, he asks: is behavioural economics a scientific revolution, or just a scientific form of marketing?

The Need for Roots - Simone Weil
A new translation of Simone Weil''s best-known work: a political, philosophical and spiritual treatise on what human life could beWhat do humans require to be truly nourished? Simone Weil, one of the foremost philosophers of the last century, envisaged us all as being bound by unconditional, eternal obligations towards every other human being. In The Need for Roots, her most famous work, she argued that our greatest need was to be rooted: in a community, a place, a shared past and collective future hopes. Written for the Free French movement while she was exiled in London during the Second World War, Weil''s visionary combination of philosophy, politics and mysticism is her answer to the question of what life without occupation - and oppression - might be.''The patron saint of all outsiders'' Andre Gide''The only great spirit of our time'' Albert Camus Translated by Ros Schwartz, with an introduction by Kate Kirkpatrick.
