The Future Is Peace
THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERPeople have lost hope that peace is possible. Talking about peace seems too vulnerable, too naive, too dangerous. We have resigned ourselves to this unending war as the only way forward. But we have tried this. We have tried war. The only war that is won is one that leads to peace. On paper Aziz and Maoz should not be friends. Aziz's brother was killed by Israeli forces, and Maoz lost both his parents in the 7 October 2023 attacks. In The Future is Peace, these two lifelong peace activists take readers on a searing journey to understand this holy, bloodstained land and explore each other's personal and national histories. Pairing unapologetic candour and inspirational prose, Abu Sarah and Inon are sending a message to humanity that the people have the power to make change. Peace is achievable, not just between Palestinians and Israelis, but throughout the world.

Unbreakable
Familiar to many from his season on the Directing Staff of Channel 4's Who Dares Wins, Melvyn Downes served in the SAS for 12 years. He has faced physical and psychological trauma. He’s lost close friends and family members. He’s experienced bullying and racial harassment. But no matter how tough things get, he is always convinced he’ll get out the other side. He wasn’t born fearless, or strong, or confident. Those things grew from graft, a willingness to learn from mistakes and a constant desire to push himself out of his comfort zone. Structured chronologically around lessons learned the hard the way, that helped him be the best version of himself, on and off the battlefield, this is a true story of a life lived at the toughest extremes. It’s also an inspiring insight into the can-do mindset of an SAS blade who lives by the ethos: ‘Improve, adapt, overcome’.

It's the beginning of the twentieth century, and members of the Wednesday Circle hurry through Vienna's darkening streets. Dr. Freud does not tolerate lateness, and the men invited to join his new society sense they are on the brink of something momentous. In his study, through a haze of cigar smoke, these early psychoanalysts alight on a profound and shocking idea that will alter modern life: the existence of the psyche.In this entertaining history, psychologist Steve Ayan introduces the twentieth-century visionaries who ignited a revolution of the mind. It is a story of breakthroughs in the treatment of mental illness, but also of dubious dream interpretations, affairs with patients, and feuding factions.

The Scramble for America
'Shows how a scrappy band of 13 colonies fought and bought its way to superpower size' THE TIMES For seven years after the Declaration of Independence the United States had no internationally recognized boundaries and no defined sovereign territory. It was more an idea than a country. Then in 1783 the United States began to expand at a staggering rate, adding territory equivalent to the landmass of modern Bulgaria each year, every year, for eighty-four years. By 1867— less than a century after its founding—the United States laid claim to some 3.6 million square miles of land on the North American continent. How did it happen? In The Scramble for America, historian Clement Knox uncovers the history of these epic years. It is the story of how the United States exploded out of its original confines on the Eastern seaboard, breaching the Appalachians, the Great Plains, the Rockies and extending its reach to the Rio Grande, the Florida Keys, and the Bering Strait, eventually straddling two oceans and commanding some of the most valuable lands on the planet. In vivid prose he recounts how a cast of settlers, prospectors, and soldiers, hungry for land, motivated by visions of gold, and inspired by the rhetoric of national greatness, spread out across the North American continent, making history as they advanced and bringing violence and dispossession in their wake. The principal currents of American history are all interwoven with these years of conquest: the origins of the revolution, the tragedy of the Native Americans, the spread of slavery, and the crisis of the union that culminated in the Civil War. Those turbulent years of rampaging continental expansion in the nineteenth century teed up the United States for global supremacy in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The creation of the continental United States was one of the great events in modern history and continues to shape our world. Published to mark the 250th anniversary of American Independence, this book offers a retelling of its national history like no other.

The House of Broken Things
She''s sleeping like a fairy tale girl, before the storyteaches girls like her a lesson.In The House of Broken Things, Kim Moore interrogates motherhood as a transformative experience in all its complexity and ambivalence. Moore conjours an intimate atmosphere of haunting domesticity, treating the poem as a kind of secular prayer: the worldly and otherworldy held in the same breath. These poems are a nuanced and sometimes painfully honest portrait of life as a new mother, and her hopes and terrors for a daughter growing up in a world of violence towards women and girls. Throughout, fears and tensions are paired seamlessly with moments of great tenderness, wit and revelation: these poems always offer a way out.The House of Broken Things is a thrilling new work from one of our boldest and most exciting poets.

Until he meets Hannah Bellinger. She’s immune to his charm and looks, but she seems to enjoy his… personality? And wants to be friends? Bizarre. But he likes her too much to risk a fling, so platonic pals it is. Now, Hannah’s in town for work, crashing in Fox’s spare bedroom. She knows he’s a notorious ladies’ man, but they’re definitely just friends. In fact, she’s nursing a hopeless crush on a colleague and Fox is just the person to help with her lackluster love life. Armed with a few tips from Westport’s resident Casanova, Hannah sets out to catch her coworker’s eye… yet the more time she spends with Fox, the more she wants him instead. As the line between friendship and flirtation begins to blur, Hannah can’t deny she loves everything about Fox, but she refuses to be another notch on his bedpost. Living with his best friend should have been easy. Except now she’s walking around in a towel, sleeping right across the hall, and Fox is fantasizing about waking up next to her for the rest of his life and… and… man overboard! He’s fallen for her, hook, line, and sinker. Helping her flirt with another guy is pure torture, but maybe if Fox can tackle his inner demons and show Hannah he’s all in, she’ll choose him instead?
