Ancient Israel and Judah
Step into the world of the Hebrew Bible and discover how the contexts of the people who lived in it illuminate and deepen our understanding of the Scriptures.In Ancient Israel and Judah, Beth Tanner takes readers on a compelling journey through the historical and cultural landscapes of ancient Israel and Judah, bringing the Hebrew Bible to life in an approachable manner yet to be achieved.An essential guide for anyone new to biblical study, this book bridges the divide between traditional religious interpretations and academic study, empowering readers to grasp the Bible’s theological themes in their full historical richness. From the origins of the Genesis narratives to the dramatic period of the Maccabees, Tanner skillfully distills centuries of history and complex concepts into an accessible and engaging narrative with relatable insights, offering clarity and context without overwhelming detail.Through an introduction to historical criticism and literary paradigms, readers learn to navigate the Bible’s poetic verses, sagas, and narratives with fresh eyes. Addressing modern misconceptions about biblical history, Tanner reveals how understanding the ancient world enhances both critical and faith-based readings of Scripture. With newfound insight, readers of this book will:• learn why history and context are essential to any interpretation; how historical events are part of the Bible but why history is not its primary purpose, thus alleviating perceived conflicts within the text;• develop an understanding of the story of the Israelites within the history of the ancient world as well as the other groups the people of the Bible encountered;• read the biblical texts with knowledge about the life and worship practices of the people for whom the biblical texts were intended.Moreover, the book’s unique inclusion of the often-overlooked late historical period (1000–33 BCE) sets the stage for the New Testament, offering vital context for students of all levels. Complete with charts, maps, and a glossary, Ancient Israel and Judah is more than a history book—it’s a road map to deeper biblical understanding.
Napoleon’s Light Infantry and Artillery
This groundbreaking book offers a detailed exploration of the dress of the thirty-seven regiments of Light Infantry and other support troops in Napoleon''s Grande Armée, including foot and horse artillery, sapeurs, musicians, and carabiniers. For the first time in two centuries, it accurately examines how these troops were clothed and equipped.Paul Dawson’s research draws from over 1,000 archive boxes in the Service Historique de l’Armée de Terre and the Archives Nationales in Paris. These documents reveal how the 1806 uniform regulations and Bardin regulations were implemented in practice, offering insights previously unavailable to the public.The archives focus on the annual inspections of regiments, where the condition of uniforms and equipment was assessed. Soldiers'' uniforms were provided through stoppages in their pay, with a prescribed lifespan for each item. The regimental Council of Administration also drew funds for clothing renewals, repairs, and equipment.Dawson’s study demonstrates that the Bardin regulations, often seen as the standard, were largely a myth until the Waterloo Campaign. Through contemporary illustrations and photographs of existing uniforms, this book provides an authoritative understanding of the actual dress worn by Napoleon’s troops, making previous descriptions of the Grande Armée’s appearance obsolete.
All In, All Yours
Where do I go from here?We all have dreams, goals, and hopes for the future. But sometimes, we hit a wall. We face opposition and are forced down detours that make us feel lost, anxious, and unsure of our next steps. We wonder what God is doing in our lives and how to move forward.But even in the twists and turns of life, God has a purpose for us. He wants to free us from fear, doubt, and discouragement, and guide us into the abundant life He’s prepared for us in Jesus.All In, All Yours is a 100-day devotional that shows us how God is our rescuer by guiding us through the biblical story of Joshua, as we follow the Israelites on their path from pain to promise.Each reading in this encouraging Christian devotional contains:scripture to show how God has always rescued His people—and still doesa story for personal and spiritual growthreflection questions that will help you take the next step in following God’s leadingAs children of God, we’ve already been given the Promised Land, but it is up to us to follow Him, take bold steps of faith, and trust that God is with us at every point along the journey.

Songs of Seven Dials
The untold story of a remarkable neighbourhood and the battle to define modern London. Throughout the 1920s and 1930s, Seven Dials was one of London’s most diverse neighbourhoods, home to migrant and working-class communities, bohemian clubs and cafes. But business leaders and city planners had other ideas. Beginning with a rancorous libel trial of 1927, in which a Sierra Leonean café owner and his wife confronted the racist newspaper that destroyed their business, Matt Houlbrook reveals the surprising history of this remarkable neighbourhood. He traces how tensions that simmered on the streets and finally exploded in court betrayed the politics of urban ‘improvement’ and the ‘colour bar’. Underlying the trial was a series of troubling questions that would define Britain in the twentieth century – about race, class and the boundaries of belonging, gentrification and the kind of city London would become. Imaginative, powerful and deeply moving, Songs of Seven Dials is an important new history of London in the 1920s and 1930s. -- .
Wisdom Takes Work
Wisdom depends on curiosity. It demands humility. It requires a willingness to learn from the past in order to overcome the obstacles of the present - and we need it more than ever.
In this fourth and final instalment of his bestselling Stoic Virtues series, Ryan Holiday reveals a method of self-education that can be honed throughout our lives. Drawing on stories of the Stoics, the Buddha, and modern greats from Abraham Lincoln to Joan Didion, he shows how to cultivate wisdom through reading, contemplation and discernment. He teaches us how to think critically, listen intently and escape the traps of tribalism, certainty and self-righteousness.
As the Stoics knew, all other virtues depend on wisdom. It takes work. But it's worth it.
Playful
A designer, educator, and play expert calls for adults to add more fun, exploration, and imagination to their lives
We are all born playful. But when we grow up, we learn to suppress this critical, hardwired instinct and our lives become ruled by ?getting things done.? As world-famous designer Cas Holman explains, this disconnection from our playful selves is hazardous to everything from our emotional wellbeing to our ability to problem solve and innovate. The emerging science of play shows that it sparks joy, wonder, creativity, and insight at any age. It is through play that we shape our identities and continue to evolve at every stage of our lives.
We think we?re making room for play we join a pickup sports game, catch a new movie, or go out to dinner for fun. But here, Holman advocates for a deeper level of ?free play? through open-ended, unstructured activities that we become absorbed in with no obvious goal or purpose. The ways we can play are endless and what recharges us most is unique to each of us: whether it?s a piece of art we create, an entertaining conversation with a stranger, or an experiment to shake up a task we take for granted. Holman shows us how to adopt a playful mindset and incorporate everyday moments of play into all areas of our lives so that we can destress, recharge, connect with each other, and grow as creative individuals. The power of play can buffer us in bleak times, and it can make our working lives far more fulfilling, helping us explore without fear of failure and consider new ways of thinking.
Playful draws on psychology, history, art, and design thinking to make a powerful case for the vital importance of play for grown-ups in a world obsessed with productivity. Provocative, wise, and full of spirit, it will inspire you to (re) learn how to play.

Another Gospel? Student Edition
A movement seeks to redefine Christianity. Some think that it is a much-needed progressive reformation. Others believe that it is an attack on historic Christianity.Alisa Childers never thought she would question her Christian faith.

She had witnessed God at work and then had dedicated her own life to leading worship, as part of the popular Christian band ZOEgirl. All that was deeply challenged when she met a progressive pastor, who called himself a hopeful agnostic.Another Gospel?

Maple Syrup
Maple syrup flows through the spirit of Canada and has done so since it was first extracted from the forests by Indigenous Peoples. In eastern Canada, especially in the heart of maple syrup country in Quebec, the arrival of sugaring off-season in spring offers an excuse for feasts with dancing in the cabanes a sucre, or sugar shacks. But behind the parties lies a high-tech, high-stakes business. A cartel controls every aspect of the syrup cycle in Quebec and decides who may make maple syrup, where and how much. To skirt this iron grip, sugar bush rebels sneak their barrels of syrup out of Quebec in the dark of night, risking crippling fines and banishment from the syrup business. In Maple Syrup, forester and journalist Peter Kuitenbrouwer leads us through the sugar maple forests, from the syrup''s semi-legendary beginnings to its commercial explosion and global conquest, weaving in his own story of tapping the forest along the way. For him, ''sugaring off'' is a magical season, when the days start to get longer and the snow begins to melt. It signals a time of togetherness and shared experience as his family battles the elements in the indomitable forest to produce bottles of pure, golden, delicious sweetener.

Piaty začiatok
Nekonvenčný archeológ Robert Kelly pri pozorovaní evolúcie ľudstva počas 6 miliónov rokov našiel päť kľúčových „mutácií“ v ľudskej spoločnosti. Každá z nich znamenala zlomový bod, každý zlomový bod ohlasoval začiatok novej éry:
„Technológia“ umožnila ľudstvu prevládnuť nad živočíšnou ríšou, čím sa začal prvý zlomový bod;
„Kultúra“ nás urobila skutočne ľudskými a znamenala druhý zlomový bod;
„Poľnohospodárstvo“ premenilo ľudstvo z nomádskych lovcov na usadených ľudí a iniciovalo tretí zlomový bod;
„Národné štáty“ vtlačili civilizácii nerovnosť, násilie a vojny, čím znamenali štvrtý zlomový bod;
Dnes stojíme na prahu piateho zlomového bodu. Celé ľudstvo sa podieľa na bezprecedentnej globálnej transformácii. Ľudská spoločnosť prechádza hlbokými zmenami, začína nová éra a my všetci sme jej súčasťou – nikto jej nemôže uniknúť.
Prostredníctvom piatich začiatkov kniha osviežuje naše chápanie minulosti, prítomnosti a budúcnosti. Málokedy sa archeológ tak hlboko zaoberá budúcnosťou a ešte málokedy je vedec, ktorý sa tak hlboko zaoberá budúcnosťou, tak hlboko optimistický.

Barbaři
Římané po staletí pohlíželi na „barbary“ jako na nekultivované cizince ohrožující jejich moc a civilizaci. Zároveň však právě vymezování se vůči těmto nepřátelům formovalo samotnou římskou identitu – určovalo, jaké ctnosti, chování a hodnoty má mít ideální Říman. Od Gala Brenna přes Hannibala, egyptskou královnu Kleopatru či Spartaka až po germánské a hunské vůdce a mnohé další tato kniha ukazuje, jak tito cizí protivníci impérium nejen ohrožovali, ale zároveň ho významným způsobem spoluutvářeli.

Velké dějiny světa
Kniha Velké dějiny světa sleduje celý příběh vesmíru a Země - od velkého třesku přes vznik hvězd, galaxií a planet až po současnost. V souladu s moderním historiografickým konceptem "big history" nám autor představuje pohled na celých 13,8 miliardy let trvání kosmu z velkého odstupu, který umožňuje povznést se nad chaos lidských dějů a spatřit celkový tvar i směřování historie. My sami nestojíme v tomto příběhu na jeho začátku ani na jeho konci ? vynořili jsme se uprostřed vyprávění, jež bude pokračovat ještě dlouho poté, co zmizíme z povrchu zemského. Takový pohled v nás může vyvolat pocit nedůležitosti a pomíjivosti, také nám ale připomíná, jak zázračný a úžasný život je.
