Mini Tarot de Marseille
A new deluxe miniature edition of the iconic Marseille Tarot• Includes 78 full-color, gilt-edged cards of the classic Tarot de Marseille originating in the early Italian renaissance• The accompanying booklet allows for intuitive, spontaneous readings through a keyword approach for each card, along with different drawing methods and spreads• Features a travel case with magnetic closure that allows for easy handling and enhanced portability of this mini deckOne of the oldest Tarot designs in use, the Marseille Tarot traces back to the card-playing traditions of the early Italian renaissance. Introduced into Southern France at the turn of the 16th century, the deck developed its particular visual style and symbolism during the 1600s and is today seen as a precursor to many modern Tarots. This beautifully designed mini deluxe edition of the Marseille Tarot merges the traditional visual approach with French illustrator Nicolas Galkowski’s distinctive primary color style. Bold, symbolic-rich imagery in the Major Arcana is contrasted with the Minor Arcana’s simpler, abstract displays of the suit symbols. Encased in a sturdy box with magnetic closure, the smaller-sized, gilt-edged cards are easy to handle and display in spreads. The 104-page guidebook provides unique interpretations and various drawing methods and layout spreads. Each card provides three individual key words and a question that help you develop a greater and more intuitive understanding of your reading. Spontaneous, original insights will arise more easily and bring discernment to your questioning. Whether for daily guidance or spiritual exploration, the Mini Tarot de Marseille helps you quickly master its symbolism and apply it to your life with astuteness and clarity.
Casement
Fully Revised and Enlarged Edition with a new ForewordSince his execution for high treason in 1916, Roger Casement has been lauded for his humanitarian activism in Africa and the Amazon. His life, however, has remained obscured behind speculation about his sexuality and his complicated contribution to Ireland’s revolutionary generation that took up arms against the British Empire. He lives on as an enduring enigma in the history of British-Irish relations—a figure who refuses easy categorisation, and whose legacy demands radical reconsideration. Angus Mitchell traces the life of a man fatally divided between serving the empire and advancing demands for an independent Irish nation. Understanding his logical evolution from imperialist to revolutionary unmasks a coherent global dimension to the Irish struggle. The apparent contradictions of his life resolve into a singular commitment to humanity, justice, and universal principles of love and tolerance. Beyond what it tells us about Casement’s fated path to the scaffold in Pentonville Prison, this biography invites readers to question the curation of national history, the hidden power of archives, and the lasting impact of state secrecy.
White Supremacy
Buffalo, New York, 2022. Ten black people murdered. The killer, 18-year-old Payton Gendron, says he was driven by 'Great Replacement' - the conspiracy theory that a Jewish-led elite is replacing white people with black and brown people. This, and a spate of similar hate crimes, begs the question: what are the origins of such behaviou? avin Evans traces the historical roots of white supremacy. He begins in the 19th century with Charles Darwin and his cousin Francis Galton's race-based theories before looking at the spread of eugenics ideas throughout the UK, Europe and the United States, their Holocaust-prompted decline after the Second World War, and their revival in a different guise through the promotion of race science from the late 20th century. Evans also examines the hatching of 'Great Replacement' conspiratorial ideas in the 21st century - and their expression via alt-right forums to the minds of troubled young men with access to assault rifles. White Supremacy breaks new ground in showing the links between mainstream 'Replacement Theory' and the terrorist version cited by far-right killers. It also traces the thread between these ideas and the race science promoted both by the far right and establishment figures. It looks at what these ideas have in common with those promoted by, for example, the founder of eugenics.

Astronaut!

How To Disagree Better
We are in a disagreement crisis. The average person would rather go to the dentist than have a twenty-minute conversation with someone that they strongly disagree with. Yet disagreement is both inevitable and essential for everything from navigating decisions at home to running innovative and agile companies to governing democratic societies.
In How to Disagree Better, Minson brings to bear her decades of research into understanding the psychology of disagreement and its relevance to negotiations, conflict resolution, and decision-making, revealing the hidden skill that all the best mediators and negotiators share: displaying receptiveness to opposing views.
The science shows that receptive individuals don't just fight less, they also get more done-they are better decision-makers, better peacemakers, and yes, better influencers than the rest of us. Through original research and case studies, How to Disagree Better will show you why traditional persuasion strategies don't work as well as you think they do, how you can bridge division and reach better outcomes simply by utilising receptiveness strategies, and that disagreeing better is a skill all of us can learn to apply at home, at work, and with our neighbors.
Reparenting the Inner Child
As adults, we often fall into patterns that feel irrational or out of character-shutting down, lashing out, people-pleasing, or self-sabotaging. Beneath those reactions lies our inner child, a younger part of us still trying to get its needs met the only way it knows how.
We all carry the imprint of our earliest years. Childhood is brief, yet its impact is lifelong. Some parts of us were met with love while other parts were met with silence, criticism, or disapproval. To survive, we learned to adapt-learning to over perform, to hide, or stay small. Most of us made it through with a mix of love and lack. And many of us still protect the parts of ourselves that once felt unsafe.
While we can't change what happened, we can change how it lives within us and impacts our lives today. Reparenting the Inner Child offers a clear, compassionate path to self-integration, combining practical exercises, somatic tools, and guided reflections to help us create the safety, love, and boundaries we've always needed. Through her holistic framework that models individual development, Dr. LePera explains how we can cultivate the emotional maturity and regulation to respond calmly instead of reacting, to embrace desire instead of shame, and to question the stories we've long believed about who we have to be.
