The Great Resistance
The history of the most diverse insurrection the world has ever known. For more than four centuries, enslaved people across the western hemisphere, from the United States and the Caribbean to Mexico and Brazil, fought any way they could to gain their freedom: from the first African revolt in 1521 on the island of Hispaniola to the eighteenth-century Maroon Wars on Jamaica, and the revolution that gave Haiti its independence. In The Great Resistance, acclaimed historian Carrie Gibson recovers their dramatic stories in one sweeping narrative. Focusing on the thousands of acts of defiance that kept the flame of freedom alive, Gibson vividly chronicles the resistance that eventually ended the slave trade and, with Brazil's abolition in 1888, the institution of slavery itself. Intertwined with this quest for emancipation were the political revolutions that gave rise to the modern nation-state. At a time when all post-slavery societies face serious questions about social and racial inequality, Gibson provides a radical new interpretation of abolition set amid a sweeping global landscape. With its deep scholarship and rich narrative, The Great Resistance is a tribute to the persistence of the human spirit to overcome even the darkest of circumstances.
Gordon Brown
'A serious and consequential analysis of a serious and consequential politician' Alastair Campbell'Fascinating and well written' Matthew Parris'Tells us more than we have ever known about this highly significant figure' Shelagh FogartyA compelling new biography of former prime minister Gordon Brown, a dominant figure in the Labour Party for five decades. More than fifteen years since he left Downing Street, Brown continues to wield significant influence among the current generation. Polls regularly suggest he is the most popular living former prime minister. Yet his short time in Number 10 ended in bitterness and election defeat. In James Macintyre’s fascinating new biography, he provides a definitive portrait of a true political giant. Based on unique access to Brown’s personal archive and interviews with his family, friends, colleagues and political rivals - including Tony Blair, David Cameron and Alastair Campbell, among many others - Macintyre reveals the private man behind the public figure. We gain unprecedented insight into his family life, his faith and what it is that still motivates him. From his political birth as a teenaged student at Edinburgh University to his ongoing efforts to improve children’s education around the world, Brown’s passionate engagement in politics remains undimmed. Macintyre takes the reader to the heart of the action, providing fresh perspectives on key events in Brown’s career, whether it’s the battle for the Labour leadership in 1994, the invasion of Iraq, the challenges of coping with the global financial crash in 2008 or the Scottish independence and Brexit referendums. Gordon Brown: Power with Purpose not only outlines Brown’s formidable legacy but shows how, even as he reaches the age of seventy-five, there is still a powerful purpose in all he does that can inspire anyone who wants to create meaningful change.
Internal Family Systems
Do you feel stuc? s your life - and are your relationships - lacking in spark, intimacy and vulnerabilit? o you find that therapy just doesn't quite work for you, though you've tried it several time? t's time to try a different way of thinking, feeling and being.

Using line drawings, bullet points, candid self-disclosure, case studies and journal prompts, this is an approachable and authoritative book that is ideal for newcomers to IFS (and those more versed in it) and which will transform the way you think about therapy.

Single
'A joyous read' Stylist'Fiercely honest and comforting' Irish Independent'The book every single woman needs' Rebecca ReidAround 40 per cent of UK adults are single at any one time. Far from being a transitional state between relationships, singledom has a lot to offer in terms of freedom, self-discovery and self-determination. At the same time, there are challenges, from the social to the economic. How do you handle being ill if you are alone? Who do you call if you're stranded out late at night? If you don't find the right person to have a baby with, should you become a parent alone? In Single, Nicola explores being un-partnered in a world designed for couples, and how to find the joy in the life that you are already living. If you are newly single, long-term single, avowedly single, reluctantly so, considering leaving your current relationship or just wondering what to say to your aunt next time she asks if you'll ever get married - this book is for you. 'I wish Single existed when I was single' Natasha Lunn, author of Conversations on Love'A warm, joyful book full of solidarity and lots of new ways of looking at single life' Radhika Sanghani, author of 30 Things I Love About Myself
Uncluttered Faith
A transformative guide to experiencing the fullness of God's promises through the power of minimalism, from the bestselling author of The More of Less and The Minimalist HomeRooted in the teachings of Jesus, Uncluttered Faith argues that true spiritual fulfilment and abundant life are found not in accumulation but in simplicity and generosity. Weaving together personal stories, biblical teachings and practical advice, Becker shows how worldly treasures can hinder your relationship with God and your potential in His Kingdom. He shares his journey towards minimalism, a path he began nearly two decades ago that has since revealed numerous spiritual promises, emphasising that Jesus's teaching to give away possessions is not about deprivation, but rather the formula to experience purpose, passion, fulfilment and meaning, in this life. Uncluttered Faith is more than a guide for your personal growth; it casts a bold vision for the Church to collectively embrace minimalism and reach its full potential, ultimately leading to a life that is not only personally fulfilling but also impactful for eternity.
The Pearl of Khorasan
The city of Herat in western Afghanistan long sat at the edge of empires and served as a hub for trade and a conduit for armies. Yet it has been much more than simply a staging post or plaything of political ambition. It has been an imperial capital, a city of extraordinary wealth, and has played host to a cultural renaissance to rival that of Florence. The Pearl of Khorasan tells the history of this storied oasis city, from the invasions of Chingiz Khan in 1221 to the present day. An epilogue assesses the challenges Herat faces in the wake of Afghanistan''s recent turmoil.Throughout Herat''s cycles of conquest and habitation, several patterns emerge: the primacy of geography; the city''s strong identification with the fertility of the banks of the Hari River; and its reputation as a place of theological excellence, tolerance and cultural refinement. From the luminescent genius of the Timurid century to the destruction and cultural vandalism associated with the Taliban''s rule of Afghanistan and the post-9/11 conflict, Herat has hosted empires and experienced the cupidity and lust for power of foreign agents. Using Persian, Pashto and British sources, the author paints a vivid picture of a city in which he has lived, presenting a personal vision of its tumultuous history.
The Country That Does Not Exist
The Somali people are fiercely nationalistic. Colonialism split them into five segments divided between four different powers. Thus decolonisation and pan-Somalism became synonymous.In 1960 a partial reunification took place between British Somaliland and Somalia Italiana. ''Africa Confidential'' wrote at the time that the new Somali state would never be beset by tribal division but this discounted the existence of powerful clans within Somali society and the persistence of colonial administrative cultures. The collapse of parliamentary democracy in 1969 and the resulting army—and clanic— dictatorship that followed led to a civil war in the ‘perfect’ national state. It lasted fourteen years in the ‘British’ North and is still raging today in the ‘Italian’ South.Somaliland ‘re-birthed’ itself through an enormous solo effort but the viable nation so recreated within its former colonial borders was never internationally recognised and still struggles to exist economically and diplomatically.This book recounts an African success story where the peace so widely acclaimed by the international community has had no reward but its own lonely achievement.
The Mercian Chronicles
A brilliant recreation of the golden age of the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Mercia – its landscapes, peoples, conflicts, power structures and political geography. The eighth century has long been a neglected backwater in English history: a shadowland between the death of Bede and the triumphs of Alfred. But before the hegemony of Wessex, the kingdom of Mercia - spread across a broad swathe of central England – was the dynamic heart of a kingship that discovered the means to exercise central political authority for the first time since the Roman empire. That authority was used to construct trading networks and markets; develop economic and cultural links with the Continent, and lay the foundations for a system of co-ordinated defence that Alfred would reinvent at the end of the ninth century. Two kings, Athelbald (716–757) and Offa (757–796) dominate the political landscape of the rising power of Mercia. During their reigns, monasteries became powerhouses of royal patronage, economic enterprise and trade. Offa constructed his grandiose dyke along the borders of the warlike Welsh kingdoms and, more subtly, spread his message of political superiority through coinage bearing his image. But Athelbald and Offa between them built something with an even more substantial legacy – a geography of medieval England. And they engineered a set of tensions between kingship, landholding and church that were to play out dramatically at the dawn of the Viking Age. In this, the latest of his sequence of histories of Early Medieval Britain, Max Adams re-connects the worlds of Oswald, Bede and Alfred in an absorbing study of the landscape, politics and society of a fascinating century.

Secret Warriors
A highly illustrated history of the Cold War operations of the submarines of the Royal Navy from 1948 to 1990.The Cold War was a period of intense activity for submarines of the Royal Navy, with many hair-raising incidents involving Soviet vessels. They were engaged in frequent hazardous surveillance patrols investigating Soviet submarines and surface warships and their operational tactics, and trailing Soviet strategic submarines (SSBNs), as well as conducting British deterrent SSBN patrols and protecting those patrols using attack submarines (SSNs). There were also dangerous patrols which trialled submarine operation under the Arctic ice-cap. In addition to these activities there were operations in other conflicts and war theatres including the Falklands War, the Suez campaign, the Northern Ireland Troubles, and the Indonesian confrontation.Naval history expert Dr Paul Brown presents the full history of this pivotal era in a fully illustrated volume, containing stunning black-and-white and colour images, technical drawings and maps. He has interviewed Cold War-era submarine commanders and engineers, submitted Freedom of Information requests, and trawled the National Archives, the archives of the Royal Navy Submarine Museum and Imperial War Museums, as well as been though personal accounts of the senior officers and many secondary sources, to bring to light new information that is published here for the first time.
So Very Small
In 1665, an infectious disease swept through the British capital and claimed the lives of tens of thousands of people. It would take another two hundred years for the cause of the Great Plague of London to be confirmed: a powerful bacterium called Yersinia pestis. In those centuries, our understanding of diseases was transformed. In So Very Small, Thomas Levenson reveals how human hubris led us to overestimate our own ability and underestimate the threat that microorganisms truly pose. He journeys through some of the most significant epidemics and pandemics in history, including the recurrent outbreaks of cholera in Europe and Asia, and the1721 Boston smallpox epidemic. The turning point came in the nineteenth century with the development of germ theory: the concept that microbes can cause disease. Levenson shows how, in the years that followed, scientists made major breakthroughs in our ongoing struggle against infectious disease. Perhaps the greatest of these achievements is the discovery of antibiotic treatment, which has been the salvation of much of humanity in recent centuries. In a story that spans centuries and continents, So Very Small explores the scientific quest to understand how tiny organisms have impacted the wider world – and looks ahead to the battle to fight their rapid evolution.
The Renewal of Islam
In The Renewal of Islam, Fitzroy Morrissey explores the evolution of modern Islam, from the nineteenth century to present day. He tells the story of how Muslim thinkers have reinterpreted Islam to meet the challenges posed by the modern world, including Islamic thinking about gender, politics and history; the modern history of Sunni-Shi‘i and Muslim-non-Muslim relations; and contemporary efforts to establish moderate and progressive forms of Islam in response to the rise of Salafi-jihadism. He shows how over the past few centuries, the insights of contemporary Muslim thinkers have developed – and in some cases transformed – the meaning of the faith. Intellectual and engaging, The Renewal of Islam is an essential read from a leading author and historian on the Islamic world.

Monstering the Rocketman
'Where is the line between fact and fiction? Not our concern. Truth is just a commodity to be sold.'When The Sun falsely accuses Elton John, 39, of 'sordid rent-boy sex sessions', the Rocketman blasts it with a whopping multi-million-pound lawsuit…But for unrepentant editor Kelvin MacKenzie, 40, 'sorry' seems to be the hardest word. He launches a staggering year-long campaign of media harassment, which could break the rocker. In the end: is Elton still standing? Or does The Sun go down on hi? ased on the true story of Britain's biggest-ever libel suit, Monstering the Rocketman is a probing and provocative exploration of truth, privacy and ambition.
