The Lamb Cycle â
The rhyme â œMary Had a Little Lambâ told in the styleâ ”and substanceâ ”of the great English poets from Edmund Spenser to Stevie Smith. Â In The Lamb Cycle, David R. Ewbank achieves the unthinkableâ ”he writes so convincingly in the style of the great English poets that one could be lulled into thinking that Shakespeare himself was inspired to muse upon the subject of â œMary Had a Little Lamb.â Ewbank captures not only the style of each of the poets he chooses, but also their preoccupations and subject matter. So D.H. Lawrenceâ ™s Mary longs for her lamb as any woman longing for her lover, whilst T.S. Eliotâ ™s Mary is recollected by an old man looking back on his life. Alexander Pope writes an â œAn Essay on Lambs,â and Tennysonâ ™s lotus eaters become â œThe Clover Eater.â Brilliantly written, sophisticated, and laugh-out-loud funny, these poems, enhanced by Kate Feifferâ ™s charming illustrations, will enchant anyone who has ever read an English poem.

The first book from the popular ADHDinos webcomic, featuring over 40 new comics. After he received an adult ADHD diagnosis in early 2022, author and illustrator Ryan Keats made lemons into prehistoric lemonade: he began to use his lived experience to create hilarious comics featuring cute cartoon dinosaurs.

Find yourself drifting off during daily conversation? Struggling and losing the battle with multitasking? Maybe you should stop scrolling and do that thing? You know the one. If any of this resonates, you may or may not be a brontosaurus, but you #39;re probably dealing with ADHD in the best way you can: day by day. The Land Before Time Management is the perfect adult ADHD book for anyone trying to fully understand or explain the struggles and intricacies of this disorder, especially women with ADHD whose symptoms may differ from those addressed by typical ADHD tools. The humorous approach to the difficulties posed by the neurodivergent mind makes this ADHDinos book an excellent choice for anyone looking for ADHD gifts or funny coffee table books.

On Politics - Alan Ryan
A magisterial, one-volume history of political thought from Herodotus to the present, Ancient Athens to modern democracy - from author and professor Alan RyanThis is a book about the answers that historians, philosophers, theologians, practising politicians and would-be revolutionaries have given to one question: how should human beings best govern themselves? Almost every modern government claims to be democratic; but is democracy really the best way of organising our political life? Can we manage our own affairs at all? Should we even try? In the west, do we actually live in democracies? In this extraordinary book Alan Ryan engages with the great thinkers of the past to show us how vividly their ideas speak to us in today s uncertain world.ALAN RYAN was born in London in 1940 and taught for many years at Oxford, where he was a Fellow of New College and Reader in Politics. He was Professor of Politics at Princeton from 1988 to 1996, when he returned to Oxford to become Warden of New College and Professor of Political Theory until his retirement in 2009. His previous books include The Philosophy of John Stuart Mill, Bertrand Russell: A Political Life and John Dewey and the High Tide of American Liberalism. He is a Fellow of the British Academy.Reviews of On Politics: An engaging and smart survey of major political thinkers ... Through Ryan [they] speak directly to the present Mark Mazower, Prospect Ryan s book is a magnificent piece of work, clear (even when the ideas he s exploring are obscure) and engaging (even when the theory in the original is forbidding) ... anyone remotely interested in political theory will profit from reading or dipping into Ryan s On Politics, whether this is their first acquaintance with the canon of political theory or whether they have been Hobbing and Locking for decades ... It s a remarkable experience Jeremy Waldron, New York Review of Books Ambitiously and elegantly covers two and a half millennia of political thinking ... despite covering huge intellectual terrain, [On Politics] a delight both when it explores detail and also when it draws conclusions of a broader perspective Justin Champion, BBC History Magazine On Politics is crammed with smart observations and wise advice John Keane, Financial Times An impressive achievement Economist

The Sword of Cyrus - J.C. Ryan
200 million souls are screaming for revenge.The Sword of Cyrus will extract that revenge.This time there is no escape.That oath “May Allah let me die a death a thousand times worse than this if I do not avenge the deaths of my loved ones on the evil one who did this” has become a refrain in the head of Dalir (“the brave”) Jahandar. The great king’s blood ran in his veins. He would restore the ancient kingdom in all its glory, so that they might once more wield the Sword of Cyrus and conquer …In a secret laboratory in the Zagros Mountains of Iran, scientists, under the auspices of the group who calls themselves The Sword of Cyrus, have just developed a nanotech nuclear weapon so small it could fit into a mobile phone, yet it has the destructive power of 7 Hiroshima bombs. This is the world’s most powerful and technologically advanced weapon, developed with the explicit goal to wipe out Western civilization.In the same way that the Great King Cyrus conquered Babylon, while their enemy are reveling in their sin, drinking and whoring its way to perdition, they would infiltrate the stronghold by stealth and conquer them from within.“Allah, I beseech you, please grant me my wish. Allah, keep me alive to be the Sword of Cyrus. If you grant my wish, I will kill millions of infidels for you. Allah, bless me in my undertaking, that the infidels may be wiped from the face of the earth and no longer offend you.”For the second time in less than two years the world is brought to the brink of total annihilation. No one saw this coming, no one expected this, and everyone believed that peace has broken out after halting the catastrophe of the Ninth Cycle Virus. The world’s intelligence agencies were fast asleep. By the time they discover the threat, it is too late. It seems as if there is nothing that can be done to stop another large scale destructive event. This time it would destroy Western Civilization.~~~The Sword Of Cyrus is a full-length novel, a stimulating techno thriller about the danger of nanotechnology to human existence. This book is a follow up of Genetic Bullets and takes readers back into the Mysteries of the Rossler Foundation which began with JC Ryan’s The Tenth Cycle followed by Ninth Cycle Antarctica.

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.
