The Invention of Essex - Tim Burrows

SHORTLISTED FOR THE EAST ANGLIAN BOOK AWARD 2023''Exceptionally well-written and intelligent ... if you are interested in this remarkable microcosm of England, the book will grip you; if you aren''t, it will make you realise that you jolly well should be.'' Simon Heffer, Spectator''A deeply sensitive and engaging portrait of a misunderstood county and its people'' Financial Times''A stellar performance'' Jonathan MeadesEssex. A county both famous and infamous: the stuff of tabloid headlines and reality television, consumer culture and right-wing politicians. England''s dark id. But beyond the sensationalist headlines lies a strange and secret place with a rich history: of smugglers and private islands, artists and radicals, myths and legends. It''s where the Peasants'' Revolt began and the Empire Windrush docked. And - from political movements like Brexit to cultural events like TOWIE - where Essex leads, the rest of us often follow. Deeply researched and thoroughly engaging, The Invention of Essex shows that there is more to this fabled English county than meets the eye.

The Invention of Good and Evil - Hanno Sauer

For almost five million years, humans have been locked in a relationship with morality, inventing and reinventing the concepts of ''Good'' and ''Evil'', and weaving them into our cities, laws and customs. Morality is a concept that can feel joyless and claustrophobic, associated with restraint and coercion, restriction and sacrifice, inquisition, confession and a guilty conscience. For many, it is a device used to shame us into compliance. This impression is not necessarily incorrect, but it is most certainly incomplete. Hanno Sauer traces humanity''s fundamental moral transformations from our earliest ancestors through to the present day, when it can often seem that we have never disagreed more over what it means to be good, and what it means to be right. But we can use our past as a basis for a new understanding of our future. Our current political disagreements may feel like the end of the world, but where will the evolution of morality take us next?

The Pattern Seekers: A New Theory of Human Invention (014198239X)

Kniha - autor Simon Baron-Cohen, 256 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná Why can humans alone invent? In this book, psychologist and world renowned autism expert Simon Baron-Cohen puts forward a bold new theory: because we can identify patterns, specifically if-and-then patterns. And he argues that the genes for this unique ability overlap with the genes for autism. From the first musical instrument to the agricultural, industrial and digital revolutions, Baron-Cohen shows how this unique ability has driven human progress for 70,000 years. By linking one of our greatest human strengths with a condition that is so often misunderstood, The Pattern Seekers challenges us to think differently about those who think differently.

The Land of Maybe - Tim Ecott

''In this excellent book, Ecott''s evocative telling makes me want to go to this weird and wonderful place.'' - PAUL THEROUX''I never want to leave the remote island world so atmospherically, precisely educed between the covers of this book. Ecott''s prose has the power of tides, his perception is as searching as the Atlantic wind, and he has the soul of a natural-born naturalist. A masterpiece.'' - JOHN LEWIS-STEMPLEFollowing the natural cycle of the year, The Land of Maybe captures the essence of ''slow life'' on the 18 remote, mysterious islands which make up the Faroes in the North Atlantic. Closer to the UK than Denmark, this fast disappearing world is home to a close-knit society where just 50,000 people share Viking roots and a language that is unlike any other in Scandinavia.We follow the arrival of the migratory birds, the over-wintering of the sheep and the way food is gathered and eaten in tune with the seasons. Buffeted by the weather and the demands of a volatile natural environment, people still hunt seabirds and herd pilot whales for a significant portion of their basic food needs.This is not a travelogue, but a deeper exploration of how ''to be'' in a tough landscape; a study of a people and a way of life that represents continuity and a deep connection to the past. The Land of Maybe offers not just a refuge from the freneticism of modern life, but lessons about where we come from and how we may find a balance in our lives.

The Power of Geography : Ten Maps That Reveal the Future of Our World - Tim Marshall

*THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER*'I can't imagine reading a better book this year' Daily MirrorTim Marshall's global bestseller Prisoners of Geography showed how every nation's choices are limited by mountains, rivers, seas and concrete. Since then, the geography hasn't changed. But the world has. In this revelatory new book, Marshall explores ten regions that are set to shape global politics in a new age of great-power rivalry: Australia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, the UK, Greece, Turkey, the Sahel, Ethiopia, Spain and Space. Find out why Europe's next refugee crisis is closer than it thinks as trouble brews in the Sahel; why the Middle East must look beyond oil and sand to secure its future; why the eastern Mediterranean is one of the most volatile flashpoints of the twenty-first century; and why the Earth's atmosphere is set to become the world's next battleground. Delivered with Marshall's trademark wit and insight, this is a lucid and gripping exploration of the power of geography to shape humanity's past, present - and future. 'Another outstanding guide to the modern world. Marshall is a master at explaining what you need to know and why.' Peter Frankopan

Into the Void: Star Wars Legends (Dawn of the Jedi) - Tim Lebbon

On the planet Tython, the ancient Je'daii order was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force--and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the Je'daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy.Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je'daii Council on a matter of utmost urgency. The leader of a fanatical cult, obsessed with traveling beyond the reaches of known space, is bent on opening a cosmic gateway using dreaded dark matter as the key--risking a cataclysmic reaction that will consume the entire star system. But more shocking to Lanoree than even the prospect of total galactic annihilation, is the decision of her Je'daii Masters to task her with the mission of preventing it. Until a staggering revelation makes clear why she was chosen: The brilliant, dangerous madman she must track down and stop at any cost is the brother whose death she has long grieved--and whose life she must now fear.

Every day, extraordinary inventions and innovative ideas are side-lined in a world that remains subservient to men But it doesn't have to be this way. From the beginning of time, women have been pivotal to our society, offering ingenious solutions to some of our most vexing problems. More recently, it is women who have transformed the way we shop online, revolutionised the lives of disabled people and put the climate crisis at the top of the agenda. Despite these successes, we still fail to find and fund the game-changing ideas that could alter the future of our planet, giving just 3% of venture capital to female founders.

The Granite Kingdom - Tim Hannigan

Shortlisted for the Edward Stanford Travel Book of the Year Award 2024Tim Hannigan undertakes an epic east–west journey on foot through his own homeland, from the woodlands of the Tamar Valley to the remote western region of Penwith. As he walks, he explores how the Cornwall of the popular imagination has been constructed by writers, artists and others, and how myths, projections and tropes intersect with the real Cornwall – its landscapes, histories, communities and sense of self.A richly informative tour of one of the most popular regions of Britain, The Granite Kingdom can be read as an evocative travelogue, a celebration of Cornwall’s landscapes, a fascinating account of its history and cultural significance, and an unflinching exploration of uneasy questions about regional identity.

Space: The Human Story - Tim Peake

Only 628 people in human history have left Earth.This is their story.Astronaut Tim Peake traces the lives of the remarkable men and women who have forged the way for humanity beyond Earth, from Yuri Gagarin to Neil Armstrong, from Valentina Tereshkova to Peggy Whitson.Full of fascinating insight into our greatest pioneers and unsung heroes, and astonishing detail only an astronaut would know, Peake's book is the first of its kind to chronicle the human evolution of space exploration over sixty years, from our first forays to now. In the process, Peake reveals what spaceflight is really like: the wondrous view of Earth, the surreal weightlessness, the extraordinary danger, the surprising humdrum, the unexpected humour, the new-found perspective, the years of training, the psychological pressures, the gruelling physical toll, the thrill of launch and the trepidation of re-entry.In the next few years, NASA will send the first woman and the first person of colour to step on the lunar surface. What will separate these upcoming moonwalkers from the legendary Apollo crews? Does it still take a derring-do attitude, super-human fitness, intelligence, plus 'the right stuff' - a fabled grace under pressure? And how will astronauts travel even further - to Mars and beyond?Space: The Human Story reveals all.

The Bill Gates Problem - Tim Schwab

You know him as the founder of Microsoft; the philanthropic, kind-hearted billionaire who has donated endless funds to good causes around the world. But there's another side to Bill Gates.We might like to think of the Gates Foundation as an innocent charity giving away money, collaborating with stakeholders, and listening to the desires of the populations it hopes to help, but is that how it works in practice?Combining rich storytelling and ground-breaking reporting, The Bill Gates Problem offers readers a provocative and timely counter-narrative about one of the world's most widely recognized individuals - a true global celebrity with international reach. But more than that, this book speaks to a vital political question around economic inequality and the erosion of democratic institutions - why should the super-rich be able to transform their wealth into political power, and just how far can they go?

The Bill Gates Problem - Tim Schwab

You know him as the founder of Microsoft; the philanthropic, kind-hearted billionaire who has donated endless funds to good causes around the world. But there’s another side to Bill Gates. In this fearless, groundbreaking investigation, Tim Schwab offers readers a counter-narrative, one where Gates has used his monopolistic approach in business to amass a stunning level of control over public policy, scientific research and the news media.Whether he is pushing new educational standards in America, health reforms in India or industrialized agriculture in Africa, Gates’s unbridled social experimentation has shown itself to be not only undemocratic, but also ineffective. All of which begs the question: why should the super rich be able to transform their wealth into political power, and just how far can they go?

Essex Dogs - Dan Jones

The Sunday Times bestseller, BBC History 2022 Book of the Year and Richard & Judy Book Club Pick from Dan Jones. July 1346. The Hundred Years'' War has begun, and King Edward and his lords are on the march through France. But this war belongs to the men on the ground.Swept up in the bloody chaos, a tight-knit company from Essex must stay alive long enough to see their home again. With sword, axe and longbow, the Essex Dogs will fight, from the landing beaches of Normandy to the bloodsoaked field of Crécy.There''s Pismire, small enough to infiltrate enemy camps. Scotsman, strong enough to tear down a wall. Millstone, a stonemason who''ll do anything to protect his men. Father, a priest turned devilish by the horrors of war. Romford, a talented young archer on the run from his past. And Loveday FitzTalbot, their battle-scarred captain, who just wants to get his boys home safe.Some men fight for glory. Others fight for coin. The Essex Dogs? They fight for each other.Praise for Essex Dogs:''Oddly joyous – rolling action, fast-paced, a book that draws you in page by page. The way Dan Jones writes enemies reminds me of Cornwell at his best, turning up tension click by click.'' Conn Iggulden''A new champion has entered the front line of historical fiction to stand shoulder to shoulder with Bernard Cornwell.'' Jane Johnson ''Battle-bloody, brutal and perfectly pitched.'' Daily Mail ''Vital, earthy, and heart-stopping... So deft and funny that you''d never guess this is Dan Jones'' debut work of fiction.'' Suzannah Lipscomb ''[Dan Jones''] mastery of his subject matter is obvious. The soldiers'' lives are rather brilliantly recreated – the kit, the fighting, the boredom and discomfort.'' The Times ''Few books manage to be as compelling on every level as Essex Dogs: it''s adventure, history, and heart.'' Dana Schwartz ''A busy, urgent little masterpiece.'' Graham Hurley ''Fascinating. Brutal. Real... Impossible to put down.'' Simon Turney ''Horribly compelling... Only Dan Jones can carry you through blood, piss and vomit and leave you wanting more.'' Daisy Dunn ''With a cast of unforgettable characters, written with irrepressible verve and historical accuracy, Dan Jones delivers a compelling novel that thrums with swordswinging energy.'' Simon Sebag Montefiore ''The battles that shaped Europe from the point of view of the soldiers... Searing.'' Kate Williams ''War. Looting. Junkies. Pintle-tugging. The English abroad. Dan Jones takes you to the year of Our Lord 1346.'' Tibor Fischer

Punisher MAX: Svět sovětů - Garth Ennis, Jacen Burrows

Někdo si palbou z AK-47 probíjí cestu ruskou mafií v New Yorku. A ten někdo není Punisher. Když Frank Castle začne zabijáka hledat, najde podivného človíčka s milým úsměvem a s touhou po pomstě, která se vyrovná té jeho. Valeriji Stěpanoviči to zabralo desítky let a tisíce kilometrů, než se dostal blíž k tomu, kdo zradil jej a jeho kamarády. Z afghánských hor se přes podsvětí rozkládajícího se Ruska dostal až sem, na newyorské ulice. Ale nežene ho jen tuctová ublíženost. To, co se stalo páté rotě gardové výsadkové divize v kopcích jižně od Kábulu, je nepopsatelná noční můra, spíš obludná exploze krutosti než běžný příběh z války. Teď je čeká práce. Čekají na ně lidé, které nejde nechat naživu. Ale Rusovo vyprávění probudí ve Frankově srdci nějaký dávný hněv - a on zjistí, že takhle blízko k vlastním mezím se ještě nedostal. A že je zralý na rozhodnutí, které už nikdy nevezme zpátky.
