Four Mothers
'Public interest journalism at its best - powerful human stories peppered with well-chosen facts ... A compelling case for a fairer society'SUNDAY TIMES'An absorbing, moving, and beautifully composed exploration of motherhood and mothering across the world . . . a gripping, vital, and utterly compelling book'Elinor Cleghorn, author of Unwell WomenAS THE YEAR TURNS, FOUR WOMEN GIVE BIRTH. In Japan, Tsukasa spends a week in her government-funded hospital room, before resting at her mother's house. In Kenya, Chelsea returns to her urban flat the day after giving birth, greeted by friends. In Finland, Anna delivers her baby in a midwife-led birth centre. And in America, despite her insurance, Sarah pays $3,000 for an uncomplicated birth. Following these women across their first year of parenting, Four Mothers is an immersive and deeply reported story of motherhood, and an enlightening exploration of the cultures and policies that shape it. 'Eye-opening and cathartic. It is a love letter to parents and a clarion call for better policy'Eve Rodsky, author of Fair Play 'Exquisitely reported and intensely readable ... Once I started Four Mothers I could not put it down' Darcy Lockman, author of All the Rage
Putování
V současnosti přišlo do módy poutnictví. Zdá se, že mnozí lidé touží po dlouhodobějším putování. Jak si ale tuto touhu vyložit? Po čem ve skutečnosti touží ti, kdo si berou na pár dní volno, aby mohli být v přírodě? Je to jednak touha vystoupit z běžného života. Vyskočit z každodenního kolotoče a na chvilku se věnovat něčemu zcela odlišnému, jen tak si jít a nemuset odvádět výkon.
Dalším důvodem oné touhy je návrat k prostému životu. Na túru si nemůžeme zabalit do batohu mnoho věcí. Musíme se vědomě omezit, aby zavazadlo nebylo příliš těžké. A pojednou nám dojde, jak málo toho k životu potřebujeme.
Toužíme také zakusit přírodu. Putujeme jí a vnímáme její kouzlo. Za chůze se kocháme krásou krajiny. Ale také zakoušíme vedro, když slunce pálí, jindy zase prudký liják a silný vítr, které nám putování stěžují. Přibližujeme se přírodě a uvědomujeme si, že jsme její součástí. Příroda neposuzuje, dovoluje nám být, jací jsme. Na poutnické cestě se setkáváme se sebou samými. Směřujeme k osvobození od každodenních starostí a problémů. A navíc jsme v té době „offline“, jsme nedostupní, zato jsme plně přítomni v daném okamžiku. Jak tak jdeme, uvědomujeme si sebe samé, setkáváme se se sebou, přicházíme k sobě.

The Mental Load Diaries
‘A reassuring manifesto on the role of women today’ - Dawn O’Porter‘This book - and Cat Sims generally - helps me to breathe a bit easier. My shoulders drop, my jaw relaxes, and I know everything is going to be OK.’ - Bryony GordonThe mental load isn’t just about doing all the stuff. The mental load is constantly thinking about having to do all the stuff, and then, when you forget to do some of the stuff, the mental load is also about beating yourself up about that, while still trying to keep in mind all the other stuff you’ve got to do.The mental load. Emotional labour. The invisible burden – whatever you call it, every woman is familiar with the neverending list of things to do that exists in their head. This noise that plays on a constant loop is impacting the mental health of women everywhere.Writer, content creator, podcaster, wife and mum Cat Sims describes the devastating impact the mental load had on her own happiness, mental health and marriage. After having children, the unequal division of responsibility in her household came into stark relief. Her desperate efforts to be the perfect wife and mother left her mentally, emotionally and physically defeated – ultimately driving her to addiction and a crisis point in her marriage.With eye-opening honesty and her trademark dry humour, Cat tells the story of her relationship with the mental load and, in turn, offers a blunt but ultimately hopeful appraisal of society and women’s experience of it. This necessary book will incite honest conversation, make you feel less alone and give you the confidence to invite your loved ones to share the mental load.

Byzantine Soldier vs Seljuk Warrior
This colourful study investigates the Byzantine and Seljuk forces that fought in a series of battles with profound implications for the Middle East during the 11th and 12th centuries. The Byzantine defeat at Manzikert in one of history’s pivotal battles resulted in the victorious Seljuk Turks pushing west to the Bosporus. Byzantine appeals for aid sparked the First Crusade, as the Byzantines and Seljuks continued to fight their own private war for control of the Anatolian peninsula (present-day Turkey). In this account, Si Sheppard examines the fighting men on both sides of this critical struggle, as the Byzantine armies stabilized their Empire’s eastern frontier, reclaiming control over the coastline, while the Seljuk forces tightened their grip in its interior. Placing the two sides’ struggle in the wider political and military context, he shows how this war of raid and counter-raid periodically flared up into full scale military commitments by both sides; the outcome of this stand-off hung in the balance, hinging on one wrong move, one decisive victory. Incorporating carefully chosen photographs, specially drawn maps and vivid original artwork, this book also analyses the battles of Manzikert (1071), Philomelion (1116) and Myriokephalon (1176), three decisive encounters that determined not just the ultimate fate of the Anatolian peninsula, but the Levant to its east and Balkans to its west for centuries to come.

800 Years of Women's Letters
‘No literary form is more revealing, more spontaneous or more individual than a letter.’ – P.D. JamesThis inspiring and fascinating book is the first truly comprehensive study of women’s letters ever published. Organised by subject matter, and covering a wide range of topics from politics, work and war, to childhood, love and sexual passion, 800 Years of Women’s Letters reveals the depth, breadth and diversity of women’s lives through the ages. Here Héloise writes to Abelard of her undying devotion, Vita Sackville-West and Virginia Woolf correspond about life and writing, Queen Victoria complains to Robert Peel about the neglect of Buckingham Palace, and many more women write letters that reveal the compassion, humour, love and tenacity with which they confront the often difficult circumstances of everyday life. This is an intriguing insight, and a rare opportunity to read the real words of real women in their own intimate language.
Imperial Footprints
A new perspective on immigration: through the eyes of children?Often absent from historical accounts and narratives, migrant children were instrumental not only in shaping Indian national and diasporic identities during the time of the British Empire, but British identity too. They were marginalised by their political status, their race, and their age, and yet they were fundamental to historical change.Focusing on a crucial aspect of British and South Asian history, Imperial Footprints explores the history of migration from the Indian subcontinent to Britain through the eyes of its youngest migrants. Sumita Mukherjee vividly explains how the immigration of South Asian children to Britain was instrumental in shaping new Indian national identities and shaping ideas of race and belonging within Britain. From the children sent to boarding schools, to runaway servants and sailor children, to the refugees of war and partition, interweaving informed reflections on postcolonial legacies, Imperial Footprints offers an important history of imperial migration before the larger waves of migration to Britain from the post-war period.Imperial Footprints challenges the assumptions of the historical voices that we foreground and in doing so rewrites the history of migration and empire.
The Cornovii
The Cornovii are one of the less well-known tribes of Roman Britain. Situated on the fringes of the civilian zone of the Province, they emerged only slowly from a pre- Roman background which is still largely unknown to us. Their territory, centered on Shropshire but extending into Staffordshire, Herefordshire and parts of Cheshire, and Worcestershire, was constantly traversed by the Roman army. Even when a civilian administration was finally established, with a capital city at Wroxeter, the army was never far away, and it had a profound effect on the development of the new civitas. Written and later updated by the late eminent archaeologist Graham Webster, this is a classic study that continues to resonate to this day.
The Queen and the Mistress
‘Hollman combines scrupulous research with spellbinding storytelling; The Queen and the Mistress will keep you turning the pages.’ - Sylvia Barbara Soberton, author of Ladies-In-Waiting: The Women Who Served Anne Boleyn‘A must-read for anyone interested in medieval women’s or royal history.’ - Catherine Hanley, author of Matilda: Empress, Queen, WarriorPHILIPPA OF HAINAULT was Queen of England for forty-one years. Her marriage to Edward III when they were both teenagers was more political transaction than romantic wedding, but it would turn into a partnership of deep affection. The mother of twelve children, she was the perfect medieval queen: pious, unpolitical and fiercely loyal to both her king and adopted country. Alice Perrers entered court as a young widow and would soon catch the eye of an ageing king whose wife was dying. Born to a family of London goldsmiths, this charismatic and highly intelligent woman would use her position as the king’s favourite to build up her own portfolio of land, wealth and prestige, only to see it all come crashing down as Edward himself neared death. The Queen and the Mistress is a story of female power and passion, and how two very different women used their skills and charms to navigate a tumultuous royal court – and win the heart of the same man.
Fractured Britannia
How did objects of dress and coinage shape power and identity in late Roman Britai? ractured Britannia provides an in-depth examination of the distribution of coinage and elite items of Roman dress in later and sub-Roman Britain, offering new perspectives on a period of profound social and political change. While previous research has sought to distinguish groups serving the Roman state, identifying them in the archaeological record remains challenging. The military and the civil administration relied on hierarchical structures and used similar objects to indicate rank and status. At the same time, local elites, responsible for much of the practical administration of Britain, began to adopt military styles of dress. These changes led to a clear evolution in dress accessories over the fourth century. Five extensive datasets on crossbow brooches, belt fittings, spurs, penannular brooches, and coins are examined systematically in combination. Previously studied in isolation, these objects reveal insights into social identity, regional variation, and the persistence or abandonment of Roman material culture. The evidence shows that while some regions continued relatively unchanged into the fifth century, others abandoned recognisably Roman forms as early as AD 375. By assessing existing methodologies, revising typologies, and mapping artefact distributions, this book highlights key patterns across sites and regions and makes large datasets publicly available. Ultimately, the study provides a chronological and geographic framework for understanding how Roman Britain transitioned into smaller post-Roman polities. It analyses the differential use of material culture across site types and compares patterns with the continent, shedding light on the transformation of Britain’s society and identity in the sub-Roman and early medieval world.

A Forever War
A Forever War: Israel and Palestine achieves something quite extraordinary. At a time when passions run high and the Israel-Gaza war intensifies, so much coverage is based on prejudice, fear and ignorance. Colin Shindler, Emeritus Professor of Israel Studies at SOAS, presents a calm, scholarly and dispassionate view of the past and of what might lie ahead. Since the founding of the State of Israel in 1948, the Middle East has been thrown into conflict. Shindler reflects on the key questions: How did this state of affairs come about? Is it even possible to write an impartial account? Could all the conflict have been avoided? How is it that Israel itself is a divided nation and even other Arab nations treat the Palestinians so badl? n both sides are the extremists - terrorists and ultra-nationalist religious Jews who are determined to seize land from Palestinians and dream of a new Jewish theocracy based on a Greater Israel - but A Forever War strives for objectivity and asks how we can best approach the truth in a time of such complex division.
