The Common Good Economy
The world-leading economist envisions a 'common good compass' to help navigate our economies in a radically different direction - one that works for everyone
Our economic system is broken. The climate crisis is accelerating. Inequality is deepening. Public trust is crumbling. Wealth concentrates in fewer hands while governments scramble to fix what markets can't do, rather than to shape them from the outset.
For too long, economics has treated 'the good' - whether public goods or the commons - as merely correcting market or government failures. This economic framing traps us in an endless cycle of being reactive, patching problems rather than proactively building the economy we need.
In The Common Good Economy, Mariana Mazzucato builds on her visionary ideas of the entrepreneurial state and mission-oriented policies to establish a new theory of the common good, one which allows governments and businesses to develop purposeful economic relationships, creating value and building spaces where human flourishing can happen. She argues that how we achieve collective goals - through collective action, participation and reciprocity - matters as much as what those goals are. The book provides a practical 'common good compass' to help navigate our economies in a radically different direction.
Full of compelling real-world examples, from governing water to transforming procurement and finance, this is a rigorous reimagining of economics and a manifesto for a future economy that serves people and the planet. It could not be more timely.
Flick - A History of Female Pleasure
FLICK is a rousing history of women enjoying sex: sex with themselves, sex with each other, and occasionally sex with men as well.
Meet the women throughout history who, quite literally, came before us.
From the host of award-winning History Hit podcast Betwixt the Sheets.
There is a common misconception that before modern day feminism, women throughout history simply lay back and thought of England or their respective place of origin; that the modern 'sex positive' movement is a radical break from the past. But women demanding better sex did not arrive with free love or the Rampant Rabbit. It has been a very long fight indeed.
From Ancient Mesopotamian sex goddesses to the contraceptive pill, Kate Lister takes us through history to show us how women's sexual pleasure was controlled, understood and thoroughly, thoroughly enjoyed.
The Traitors Circle
When the whole world is lying, someone must tell the truth.
Berlin, 1943. A group of high-society anti-Nazi dissenters meet for a tea party one late summer afternoon. They do not know that, sitting around the table, is someone poised to betray them all to the Gestapo - revealing their secret to the Nazis' most ruthless detective.
They form a circle of unlikely rebels, drawn from the German elite: two countesses, a diplomat, an intelligence officer, an ambassador's widow and a pioneering headmistress. Meeting in the shadows, rescuing Jews or plotting for a future Germany freed from the Führer's rule, what unites them is a shared loathing of the Nazis, a refusal to bow to Hitler and the courage to perform perilous acts of resistance. Or so they believe.
How did a group of brave, principled rebels, who had successfully defied Adolf Hitler for more than a decade, come to fall into such a lethal trap? And who betrayed them?
Undone from within and pursued to near-destruction by one of the Reich's cruellest men, they showed a heroism that raises a question with new urgency for our time: what kind of person does it take to risk everything and stand up to tyranny?
Intimacy
From the initial spark of attraction when your eyes first meet, to spontaneously dancing together in the kitchen and falling asleep side by side - how do we create those intimate moments of connection?
How we see sex and intimacy portrayed on screen has profound effects on how we learn to love each other, but before Ita O'Brien, no-one was thinking about it. After a lifetime of working in film and TV and seeing its abuses first-hand, Ita decided to change how we portray intimacy for good.
Now, as Intimacy Coordinator on productions including Normal People, Sex Education and I May Destroy You, Ita has transformed the way we see and talk about sex in pop-culture. Here, Ita guides us through how she helps actors create authentic sex scenes, and how we can use those techniques to rebuild a deeper and healthier connection with our bodies, create a safe space for exploration, and rethink how we navigate sex and intimacy in our own lives - at home, in our closest relationships - and in society as a whole.
Full of behind-the-scenes stories from her work on set, Intimacy is a call for us to rethink how we navigate ourselves and each other, not just through our words, but through our bodies and actions, too.
Belarus
Recent events have thrust Belarus into the international spotlight, but for years after declaring independence in1991, Belarus remained a little-known republic in the West, despite its important geostrategic position between Poland and Russia, and as a conduit for Russian energy supplies to central Europe. In the late Soviet period, it was best known as a victim of the 1986 nuclear accident at Chernobyl, which covered its territory in dangerous radionuclides of cesium, strontium, and iodine. The Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022; the unprecedented mass demonstrations after President Alexander Lukashenka declared himself the victor in his 2020 presidential race against challenger Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya and the ensuing mass repression, imprisonment, and torture of civilians thrust the country into international attention. This book probes the deep background to these tumultuous events even long before the collapse of the Soviet Union and Lukashenka''s merciless dictatorship. Belarus: What Everyone Needs to Know® explains Belarus to outsiders, tracing its development, history, and formation of a modern identity. Marples and Laputska look at its place in contemporary Europe and its relations with Russia, Ukraine, China, and other states; and argue that the image of Belarus as a Soviet theme park or offshoot of Putin''s Russian World are far-fetched and misguided.
The Ten Stories
Out of the countless experiences in a lifetime, why are certain narratives chosen, repeated, and preserved by aging individuals? The Ten Stories suggests that most elderly people return to a core set of approximately ten stories as they reflect on their lives. The significance of those narratives lies not in their factual details, but in the values and meanings they convey. Most stories told are set during late adolescence and early adulthood – often eight or nine out of ten originate during this period. The stories are also audience-specific, as they are shaped by the relationship between teller and listener. The book explores how stories told by mothers are different than those told by fathers; how stories told to sons differ from those told to daughters; and how the stories of immigrant parents differ from non-immigrants. Social scientist and health policy researcher Mary Ann McColl provides insight into what older adults may be expressing through repeated stories. She shares twenty recurring themes emerging from the stories – such as overcoming obstacles, showing kindness, regrets and resentments, and standing up for what’s right – that represent an opportunity for connection and understanding, rather than a source of frustration. This book offers practical strategies for listening more effectively and appreciating those narratives as intentional, meaningful acts of communication.

Zákonník práce – zákon s komentárom
Dňa 15. apríla 2026 bol schválený nový zákon zákona o rovnakom odmeňovaní mužov a žien za rovnakú prácu alebo za prácu rovnakej hodnoty. Zákon svojím spôsobom ovplyvňuje aj základný pracovnoprávny predpis, ktorým je Zákonník práce. Vzhľadom na novú právnu úpravu sa v Zákonníku práce vypustila úprava o práve na rovnakú mzdu pre mužov a ženy a ponechal sa odkaz na úpravu rovnakého odmeňovania na osobitný predpis, ktorým je práve nový zákon č. 76/2026 Z. z. Právo na rovnaké odmeňovanie podľa nového zákona je totiž širšie, nezahŕňa iba mzdu, ale všetky základné a doplnkové zložky odmeny. V ustanovená § 119a Zákonníka práce sa ponechalo zakotvenie práva na rovnaké odmeňovanie pre osoby rovnakého pohlavia za rovnakú prácu alebo za prácu rovnakej hodnoty s tým, že rovnaká práca alebo práca rovnakej hodnoty sa v záujme jednotnosti bude určovať na základe tých istých kritérií ako v novom zákone.

Going Nuclear
What if climate change isn't an environmental challenge, but an energy challenge?
This visionary book urges us to rethink the path to net zero, arguing that the solution to climate change lies not simply in replacing fossil fuels with renewables, but in fully embracing another energy source that emits zero carbon dioxide: nuclear power.
Dr Tim Gregory dismantles the conventional wisdom that renewables are completely 'green', and debunks myths surrounding waste and radiation, demonstrating that nuclear power is not only reliable, safe and potent, but the most environmentally responsible way to harvest energy. He calls for decarbonisation to be the twenty-first century's Apollo programme, making the bold case for an alternative, sustainable and prosperous future.
The Revolutionists
A thrilling and unprecedented account of the radicalism and political extremism that gripped the 1970s - a seismic decade that transformed the modern world.
In the 1970s, a network of extremists terrorised the West with intricately planned plane hijackings and hostage-takings. Among them were the glamorous Leila Khaled, hard-drinking Carlos the Jackal, and radical leftists of the Baader-Meinhof Gang, all united by their hatred of Israel, capitalism and 'Western imperialism'. Their audacious attacks brought governments to their knees and glued nations to their TV screens.
Drawing on decades of research, declassified and secret documents, and first-hand interviews with hijackers, spies, witnesses and victims, Jason Burke takes us inside these often-deadly operations. In this underground realm of loyalty, betrayal and commitment to radical change at any cost, he reveals the dark origins of our fractured world today.
Against Identity
A philosopher explains why the search for identity is meaningless, and how we should escape the self
Modern life encourages us to pursue the perfect identity. Whether we aspire to become the best lawyer or charity worker, life partner or celebrity influencer, we emulate exemplars that exist in the world - hoping it will bring us happiness. But this often leads to a complex game of envy and pride. We achieve these identities but want others to imitate us. We disagree with those whose identities contradict ours - leading to polarisation and even violence. And yet when they thump against us, we are ashamed to ring hollow.
In Against Identity, philosopher Alexander Douglas seeks an alternative wisdom. Searching the work of three thinkers - ancient Chinese philosopher Zhuangzi, Dutch Enlightenment thinker Benedict de Spinoza, and 20th Century French theorist René Girard - he explores how identity can be a spiritual violence that leads us away from truth.
Through their worlds and radically different cultures, we discover how, at moments of historical rupture, our hunger for being grows: and yet, it is exactly these times when we should make peace with our indeterminacy and discover the freedom of escaping our selves.
Togetherness
An awe-inspiring exploration of how symbiosis can change the way we understand our world, ourselves and our future
'Absolutely enthralling' BILL BRYSON
'A joyful book, of hope and wonder, which celebrates community as the true key to success in nature' STEVE BRUSATTE
From evolution to capitalism, 'survival of the fittest' has shaped our view of the world. But we got it wrong - and our mistake has brought us to the brink.
For the history of life on Earth is much more than a story of competition. The natural world has been forged and sustained by small miracles of co-operation between animals and plants, insects and fungi, fish and bacteria - these partnerships are ubiquitous, lifelong and an essential guide for a better future.
In Togetherness, Rowan Hooper reveals the intimate connectedness of nature through these remarkable stories of symbiosis. From the female wasp venturing deep inside a fig and the intricate relationship between corals and the algae that sustain them to the symbiotic gut microbes that influence our moods, he explores how co-operation is fundamental to life itself and to protecting our shared future.
Togetherness will change the way you see the world, our place in it and our obligation to its hidden wonders.

The Secrets of our DNA
DNA has become one of the most powerful tools in modern science; From unlocking crime and immigration cases, to ensuring our food and animal safety, to resolving questions of history and archaeology, ancestry and even, for some, identity.
In this eye-opening book, Professor Turi King - the scientist who identified the remains of Richard III in a Leicester car park - uncovers how genetics is changing the way we understand the world. Through compelling real-life cases, she shows how DNA has solved crimes, rewritten history, and reshaped ideas of who we are.
From the O. J. Simpson trial to mistaken dinosaur DNA, from Dolly the sheep to Angelina Jolie's BRCA1 gene, King brings genetics to life with fascinating examples that reveal what DNA can - and can't - tell us about who we are.
She reminds us that while our DNA can reveal a predisposition to certain diseases and conditions, it doesn't determine our future. And, perhaps most importantly, she shows why we all need to be part of the conversation about how new genetic discoveries are used for the benefit of life on Earth.
Compelling, compassionate, and entirely captivating, The Secrets of Our DNA is the must-read book about how genetics has changed - and is changing - the world.
How to Win a Trade War
An essential guide to our new era of economic competition. From Soumaya Keynes, podcaster and columnist at the Financial Times and Chad Bown, former Chief Economist at the US State Department under President Biden.
We used to take trade for granted. Trillions of dollars of goods and services crossed borders each year. Nobody paid too much attention: it just worked.
Now, surging oil prices can hit your mortgage. Trump's latest tariff announcement can crash markets and ruin your pension. Brexit can sever Britain from its closest trading partners. Chinese restrictions can bring the West's car production to a crashing halt. Curbs on trade in cutting-edge chips could determine who wins the AI race. The stakes couldn't be higher.
In this irreverent guide, Keynes and Bown explore the history, players, and rules of trade, asking how we prepare for what the future might hold. Could trade wars lead to hot wars? What can the West learn from China? How should countries defend their economies?
Timely, funny and informative, How to Win a Trade War argues that the old system is dead. But what will emerge in its place? And ultimately, what is at stake for you, your country, and your company?
Stealing Hitler's Rocket
This is the incredible story of how one of Adolf Hitler's top secret V2 rockets was stolen by the Poles and smuggled to Britain in the most extraordinary operation of the Second World War. More extraordinary still, it is a story that is utterly neglected.
The V2 rocket was part of Adolf Hitler's plan to break British morale. The world's first rocket delivered warhead, the VI, had killed thousands of British people before allied forces captured its launch sites and halted the weapon in its tracks. What they weren't ready for was a new and more terrifying rocket appearing seemingly out of thin air - this one as tall as a four-storey building and using highly advanced technology. Powered by a rocket engine burning a mix of alcohol-water and liquid oxygen, the V2 blasted its way to the edge of space, before falling back to Earth at supersonic speed and killing thirty thousand people. This was the threat of Hitler's terror made devastatingly real.
But Winston Churchill's intelligence chiefs had known of the weapon weeks before it first struck the mainland, and British operatives hatched a plan with Polish resistance forces to smuggle one of these rockets out from underneath Hitler's nose. In Stealing Hitler's Rocket, Guy Walters reveals the true extent of the secret and life-threatening operation undertaken by the allies and the Polish underground movement that changed the course of history forever.
Unparliamentary
From fistfights to scandals, Unparliamentary provides a sourced account of unexpected events that have marked the history of Canada’s Parliament. It offers an intriguing look into surprising moments that occurred on Parliament Hill, highlighting the unpredictable nature of human behaviour – especially among legislators. Moving from Confederation to the present day, Charlie Feldman explores moments from the less formal side of national politics, including conflicts between parliamentarians and acts of disorder, as well as instances of controversy and error in both the Senate and House of Commons. Many of the episodes discussed once attracted public attention but have since faded from memory, even among parliamentarians themselves. Unparliamentary draws on a wide range of historical and archival materials to document these incidents and bring them to life. Demonstrating how parliamentary truth is sometimes stranger than fiction, this book is written in a direct and accessible style and functions as both a reference work and as a readable account of the Parliament’s unconventional history.
In Defence of Populism
'Populist' is now most commonly used as a term of abuse. Populists, we are repeatedly told, are xenophobic ignoramuses offering irrational, emotive solutions to complex problems. But is this tru? rank Furedi argues that this is a self-serving narrative that owes more to the desire of elites to protect their own power and interests than it does to the truth. The widespread disdain expressed towards populism in the media and by many academics is in fact poorly concealed contempt towards the idea of popular sovereignty and democratic decision-making. Populism is not equivalent to any specific ideology, as populist politicians vary greatly in their substantive views, but it is rather a broad disposition towards public life that stresses the value of giving the ordinary citizen a genuine voice in political decision-making. Attacks on 'populism' most commonly reveal the desire of those who run our institutions to keep real authority in the hands of unaccountable elites who veil their power under the guise of 'expertise'. This bracing defence of basic democratic values by one of our most fearless polemicists should be read by anyone who mistakes the complacent assurances of our elite for the wisdom of our betters.
