Mushrooms - Liz O

Mushrooms are one of our planetâ ™s most amazing and unusual organisms. Used for millennia as a source of food, medicine, and occasionally poison, mushrooms and toadstools have become part of our cultural histories: for example, a ring of mushrooms was believed to be a magnet for fairies to come out to dance, while in Greek mythology, mushrooms were said to originate from Zeusâ ™s lightning because they appeared after rainstorms. Mushrooms is a photographic guide to the worldâ ™s major species of fungi, from the familiar porcini mushroom, prized for its meaty texture and nutty taste, to the vivid hues of the red-and-white spotted fly agaric, known to cause psychotic reactions if eaten, and the well-named Jelly Ears, its large tan-brown fleshiness found growing on tree branches. Illustrated with 300 photographs and including dimensions and characteristics for each entry, Mushrooms offers a vivid pictorial introduction to fungi for foragers, cooks and all those interested in mycology.

In Writing - Adam Phillips

Acclaimed author of On Kissing, Tickling and Being Bored and On KindnessA collection of literary essays like no other - exploring the deep connections between literature and psychoanalysis - from Britain s leading psychoanalyst.For Adam Phillips - as for Freud and many of his followers - poetry and poets have always held an essential place, as both precursors and unofficial collaborators in the psychoanalytic project. But the same has never held true in reverse. What, Phillips wonders, at the start of this deeply engaging book, has psychoanalysis meant for writers? And what can writing do for psychoanalysis?Phillips explores these questions through an exhilarating series of encounters with - and vivid readings of - writers he has loved, from Byron and Barthes to Shakespeare and Sebald. And in the process he demonstrates, through his own unique style, how literature and psychoanalysis can speak to and of each other. Adam Phillips is that rarest of phenomena, a trained clinician who is also a sublime writer - John Banville, author of The Sea Reading Phillips, you may be amused, vexed, dazzled.

War and Power - Phillips Payson O

Phillips O Brien is one of the keenest observers of modern strategy, and his new book takes a deep historical look at the evolution of warfare and its implications for conflicts like the ongoing one in Ukraine Francis Fukuyama--------------------War and power are two of the most-widely discussed issues in all of human history, and yet they are, time and again, misunderstood often disastrously so.Whilst we might think the outcome of war is determined by so-called Great Powers who dominate their opponents with their impressive size and military prowess, the reality of modern conflict, as renowned strategic historian Professor Phillips Payson O Brien demonstrates, is very different. He urges us instead to look for Full Spectrum Powers .For if we are considering how powerful a nation is and who will win a war, we need to think less about weapons, and more about the economies and societies that produce them; less about individual battles, and more about sustaining campaigns and alliances in which states operate.Using fascinating examples from the late 19th century to the present day, War and Power explains how misunderstanding war and power has led to terrible, even preventable conflicts such as the war in Ukraine and how more accurate analysis can help us consider the potential conflict between the US and China.War and Power provides a bold new way of understanding the dangerous world around us.-------------------- Phillips O Brien is always fantastic. Heterodox. He s pretty scathing, even about Biden administration policy . . . A really interesting book Paul Krugman, Distinguished Professor of Economics As Phillips O Brien points out in this important book, the character of war evolves, but some of the underlying truths, particularly from the second World War, are still very much with us.

With this record and, then, When I Get Home (2019), Phillips describes how Solange has embraced activism, anger, Black womanhood and intergenerational trauma to inform her remarkable art.Why Solange Matters not only cements the subject in the pantheon of world-changing twenty-first-century musicians, it introduces its writer as an important new voice.

Od našeho předka, který sletěl z větve, přes rakouskou armádu, jež jedné prochlastané noci zaútočila sama na sebe, až k přední světové supervelmoci, která jako prezidenta zvolila moderátora TV show… je celkem na místě si jako druh říci, že jsme se s věkem rozhodně nestali moudřejšími. Takže až si příště budete myslet, že jste něco opravdu podělali, tahle kniha vám připomene, že to mohlo být mnohem horší.

A Brief History of the End of the F*cking World - Tom Phillips

Superb ... entertaining ... Phillips traverses this sprawling terrain with energy and charm Telegraph Exceptionally funny from cover to cover, it is not only an entertaining read but also deeply researched and thoughtful Irish Independent Fans of Phillips s earlier books Humans and Truth will be pleased that the ex-BuzzFeed editor is on form, not letting the grimness of his subject spoil his gagsmithery Guardian A great read ... [Phillips] fills his timeline of unfilled apocalypses with wry humour New ScientistDo you feel like we re living in the end times? Does it seem like everything is on fire, and one disaster follows another? Here s a small comfort: you re not the first to feel that way. If there s one thing that people throughout history have agreed on, it s that history wasn t going to be around for much longer.This book is about the apocalypse, and how humans have always believed it to be very f*cking nigh. Across thousands of years, we ll meet weird cults, failed prophets and mass panics, holy warriors leading revolts in anticipation of the last days, and suburbanites waiting for aliens to rescue them from a doomed Earth. We ll journey back to the worst period to be alive , as the world reeled from a simultaneous pandemic and climate crisis. And we ll look to the future to ask the unnerving question: how might it all end?But it s also a book about how we live in a world where catastrophe is always looming - whether it s a madman with a nuclear button or the slow burn of environmental collapse. Because when we talk about the end of the world, what we really mean is the end of our world. Our obsession with doomsday is really about change: our fear of it, and our desire for it, and how - ultimately - we can find hope in it.Praise for the Brief History series: Uproarious . . .

SOME POEMS OF ROGER CASEMENT - Sean Hewitt, Roger Casement

Originally published in 1918 by the Talbot Press in Dublin, two years after his execution by the British Government for his involvement in the 1916 Easter Rising, Some Poems of Roger Casement has long been a collectorâ ™s item. In life and in death, Roger Casement appears to contain many contradictions: decorated British diplomat, Irish Protestant and martyred Irish nationalist. He was a humanitarian, essayist and sometime poet, a public gentleman and a private lover. Over the years, Roger Casementâ ™s ghost has been the subject of endless controversies, co-opted into both the queer liberation movement in Ireland and the Republican movement. Predator or saviour, traitor or hero, maligned martyr or gay icon? The question depends on who you ask, and what aspects of Casementâ ™s life they choose to hold in focus, or to dismiss as a lie. â ”SEÁN HEWITTIncludes a specially commissioned introduction by Seán Hewitt as well as the original 1918 introduction, written by Casementâ ™s cousin, Gertrude Parry.

The Warrior Mindset - Roger Gracie

FOREWORD BY TOM HARDYI fight not just for myself, but for the Gracies... In the heat of the moment, how do you control your emotions and master your thinking?How do you suffer through hardship and grow through failure?How do you develop quiet inner grace?Ten-time Brazilian jiu-jitsu World Champion and former MMA World Champion, Roger Gracie is a martial arts legend and widely considered to be the greatest practitioner of Brazilian jiu-jitsu of all time. His grandfather, the great Carlos Gracie, was the architect of modern day Brazilian jiu-jitsu and for Roger, growing up in the famous Gracie family, every conversation seemed to be about fighting. Within this family of supermen, this self-contained, once chubby kid promised little; in fact, nobody expected Roger to be the warrior he #39;d later become. But once he had made up his mind as a teenager to become the greatest, Roger #39;s star was firmly aligned with his purpose. Over time, he gradually became unstoppable, both in his thirst for jiu-jitsu knowledge and in his single-mindedness to reach mastery, just as his grandfather had done before him. For the first time, in The Warrior Mindset, Gracie shares secrets and lessons from a career of fighting at the highest level. Going far beyond the mat, this hard-won wisdom is applicable to everyone from any background and in any walk of life who longs to find strength, courage, health, and peace.

On Giving Up - Adam Phillips

A wise, generous book Washington PostFrom acclaimed psychoanalyst Adam Phillips, a meditation on what we must give up to feel more alive. To give up or not to give up?The question can feel inescapable but the answer is never simple. Giving up our supposed vices is one thing; giving up on life itself is quite another. One form of self-sacrifice feels positive, something to admire and aspire to, while the other is profoundly unsettling, if not actively undesirable. There are always, it turns out, both good and bad sacrifices, but it is not always clear beforehand which is which. We give something up because we believe we can no longer go on as we are. In this sense, giving up is a critical moment - an attempt to make a different future. In On Giving Up, acclaimed psychoanalyst Adam Phillips illuminates both the gaps and the connections between the many ways of giving up, and helps us to address the central question: what must we give up in order to feel more alive?

Battleground - Phillips Christopher

The essential guide to geopolitics in the modern Middle East  The Middle East is in crisis. The shocking events of the war in Gaza have rocked the entire region. More than a decade ago, the Arab Spring had raised hopes of a new beginning but instead ushered in a series of civil wars, coups, and even harsher autocracies. Tensions were exacerbated by the meddling of outsiders, as regional and global powers sought to further their interests. The United States, for so long the dominant actor, had stepped back, leaving a vacuum behind it to be fought over.  Christopher Phillips explores geopolitical rivalries in the region, and the major external powers vying for influence: Russia, China, the EU, and the US. Moving through ten key flashpoints, from Syria to Palestine, Phillips argues that the United States⠙ overextension after the Cold War, and retreat in the 2010s, has imbalanced the region. Today, the Middle East remains blighted by conflicts of unprecedented violence and a post-American scramble for power ⠓ leaving its fate in the balance.

Second Chances - Stephen Greenblatt, Adam Phillips

A powerful exploration of the human capacity for renewal, as seen through Shakespeare and Freud  ⠜A compellingly readable and intelligent book. . . . Both authors write with impressive energy.⠝⠔Rowan Williams, New Statesman  In this fresh investigation, Stephen Greenblatt and Adam Phillips explore how the second chance has been an essential feature of the literary imagination and a promise so central to our existence that we try to reproduce it again and again. Innumerable stories, from the Homeric epics to the New Testament, and from Oedipus Rex to Hamlet, explore the realization or failure of second chances⠔outcomes that depend on accident, acts of will, or fate. Such stories let us repeatedly rehearse the experience of loss and recovery: to know the joy that comes with a renewal of love and pleasure and to face the pain that comes with realizing that some damage can never be undone.  Through a series of illuminating readings, the authors show how Shakespeare was the supreme virtuoso of the second chance and Freud was its supreme interpreter. Both Shakespeare and Freud believed that we can narrate our life stories as tales of transformation, of momentous shifts, constrained by time and place but often still possible. Ranging from The Comedy of Errors to The Winter⠙s Tale, and from D. W. Winnicott to Marcel Proust, the authors challenge readers to imagine how, as Phillips writes, ⠜it is the mending that matters.⠝

Invisible Jesus - Scot McKnight, Tommy Preson Phillips

Is Deconstruction A Rebellion Against God or a Prophetic Movement Resisting a Distorted Gospel? In recent years, we ve seen an increase in the number of Christians who are deconstructing their faith—critically analyzing Christianity and the church and finding that it falls short. Many end up leaving behind the beliefs and commitments they formerly held. While many have written on how to reverse this trend, Scot McKnight and Tommy Preson Phillips believe that deconstruction isn’t a problem but a voice…And we need to listen to what it is saying to the church.Deconstructors are uncovering serious weaknesses in today s church—a renewed fundamentalism, toxic leadership, and legalistic thinking among them. Utilizing the results of recent studies by Pew, Gallup, and others, McKnight and Phillips take a careful look at what deconstructors are really saying, seeking to better understand why many are shedding elements of the faith and church of their youth but also engaging in a reconstruction process, finding Jesus afresh. They are losing their religion, but not losing Jesus.Filled with stories of those who have walked the path of deconstruction without losing their faith, Invisible Jesus is a prophetic call to examine ourselves and discern if the faith we practice and the church we belong to is really representative of the Jesus we follow. Each chapter looks at a different topic and offers biblical reflections that call for us to not only better listen, but to change how we live out our faith as followers of Jesus today.

The oral history of Britainâ ™s first West Indian immigrants and their descendantsIn 1948 the former troop ship Windrush made the 30-day journey across the Atlantic from Jamaica. The arrival of its 500 passengers, the first generation of Caribbean migrants in the UK, was the initial step in the formation of a new identity: the black Briton.Fifty years later, Mike and Trevor Phillips spoke to those on the Windrush itself, as well as those who followed, to tell the story of Britain in the second half of the twentieth century through the eyes of the outsiders who became insiders.Now updated to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the shipâ ™s voyage and including reflections on its political and cultural legacy in 2023, Windrush is an essential record of this transformative era in British social history.

A Humument - Tom Phillips

The final edition of the late Tom Phillipsâ ™s â ˜defining masterpiece of postmodernismâ ™. In 1966 the artist Tom Phillips discovered A Human Document (1892), an obscure Victorian romance by W.H. Mallock, and set himself the task of altering every page, by painting, collage or cut-up techniques, to create an entirely new version. Some of Mallockâ ™s original text remains intact and through the illustrated pages the character of Bill Toge, Phillipsâ ™s anti-hero, and his romantic plight emerges. First published in 1973, A Humument â “ as Phillips titled his altered book â “ quickly established itself as a cult classic. From that point, the artist worked towards a complete revision of his original, adding new pages in successive editions. That process is now finished. This final edition presents an entirely new and complete version of A Humument. It includes a revised Introduction by the late artist, in which he reflects on the 50-year project, and 92 new illustrated pages.

He co-created fan-favourite characters Devlin Waugh and Armitage as well as drawing for classic strips Judge Dredd and Sinister/Dexter. This collection forms a retrospective of Phillips work for 2000 AD and shows how his art evolved from the fully painted work and collage of the early 1990s, to the familiar style he employs on hit books today.

Monogamy - Adam Phillips

A couple is a conspiracy in search of a crime. Sex is often the closest they can get. All the present controversies about the family are really discussions about monogamy. About what keeps people together and why they should stay together. Now, in a book of 121 aphorisms, Adam Phillips asks why we all believe in monogamy, and why we find it so difficult to think about. Everyone knows that most people, however much they may love their partner, are capable of loving and desiring more than one person at a time. It may be reassuring, but it is in fact very demanding -- and often cruel -- to assume that only one person can give us what we want. At least in sexual matters, sharing seems to go deeply against the grain. Monogamy is so much taken for granted as the foundation of the family and of family values that, as with anything that seems essential, we are very wary of being critical of it. But, as Adam Phillips suggests, it is surely worth wondering why the faithful couple has such a hold on our imagination, and how it has come to be such an ideal.
