Super-Battleships of World War I
As World War I ended, the victors were developing a powerful new generation of ''hyper-dreadnoughts'' and battlecruisers. Fully illustrated, this studies the big-gun warships that never were.1918 was a moment of great naval change. Britain still had the largest fleet in the world, but its ships were ageing, and many of them were markedly inferior to the latest American and Japanese battleships. An arms race loomed between the war’s victors. In this book naval expert Angus Konstam studies and compares the battleships being designed between 1918 and 1922, which drew on the lessons of World War I. Britain was designing four G3-class 15in-gun battlecruisers, plus four N3 ‘hyper-dreadnoughts’ mounting colossal 18in guns. The US Navy was planning six new South Dakota battleships, carrying an incredible 12 16in guns, plus six Lexington-class battlecruisers. Japan was working on a similar project, and in 1920 the first of four Amagi-class battlecruisers were laid down.However, in 1922 this costly arms race was averted by the Washington Naval Treaty, which halted new battleship construction, and limited the major fleets. These battleships and battlecruisers were mostly cancelled and scrapped, with a few, such as Lexington and Akagi, converted into aircraft carriers. With new colour reconstructions of the G3, H3, South Dakota, Lexington and Amagi classes, this is the first book to study these never-built monster warships.
Fully Alive
''This remarkable book points not to some unreachable ideal of life but to a deeper, more soulful and meaningful experience of the lives we''re actually living.''Oliver Burkeman''A rich and soul-searching exploration of what it means to believe in a shifting age. This is a rare thing - an open, human and vulnerable profession of faith. I learned a lot. ''Katherine May''This is deep stuff, personal yet learned, funny and vulnerable ... the book I didn''t know I needed.''Sally Phillips''Luminous in a manner that a medieval anchorite might have appreciated, while simultaneously wise in the ways of coping with a pram on a crowded bus.''Tom Holland''A great gift to all in search of a deeper life.'' Krista TippettWhat does it mean to live a good, whole and fulfilling life? And if the world really is ending, or at least expecting turbulent change, what kind of people will we need when it happens?In FULLY ALIVE Elizabeth Oldfield explores how we can build spiritual core strength for an unstable age. Drawing on the ancient wisdom of faith and stories from her own life, Oldfield writes about her quest to live a meaningful, fulfilling life, and the niggling questions that bother all of us below the surface, such as: How can I focus on what really matters and stop getting so distracted by trivialities?How do I become a depolarising person in a culture of outrage, tribalism, and division?Can I find my highs in expansive, life-giving ways, rather than in a bottle of wine or a tub of ice cream?And what kind of world am I leaving for the next generation?FULLY ALIVE is for readers looking for an honest conversation about the deepest questions in our ordinary lives, and practical, meaningful ideas to help us pay attention to the people we are becoming. For ourselves, our communities and the world.This Paperback edition includes: Author Q&A, Discussion Guide and Recommended Reading List. ''When I was writing UNAPOLOGETIC more than a decade ago, I knew the job would soon need doing again. And again. Because the bridge between faith and contemporary experience constantly needs to be rebuilt as times change. So here it is, then: the bridge for the present moment, across which seekers for more meaning in their lives can travel in the knowledge that they won''t be bullied, browbeaten or talked down to. This book. This one. In your hand. Right now.'' Francis Spufford''Plainspoken, fearless, disarmingly tender. Oldfield is a leader by example, and her book is a glowing argument for faith - one that speaks urgently to our fractured world.''Rhik Samadder

Szent István és utódai
Thoroczkay Gábornak (1971), a budapesti Eötvös Loránd Tudományegyetem Középkori Történeti Tanszéke docensének, doktoriprogram-vezetőjének, az Árpád-kori magyar történelem és a magyar őstörténet neves kutatójának tanulmánykötete Szent István király és utódai állam- és egyházszervező tevékenységével ismerteti meg az olvasót. A kötet javarészét Szent István Kárpát-medencei keresztény egyházkormányzatot megalapozó tetteinek tárgyalása teszi ki, de ugyanilyen hangsúlyt kap az István király életútját - három szentéletrajza közül a legbővebben - bemutató Hartvik-féle legenda. Mindezek mellett érdekes szempontokat kínálnak a magyar Árpád-kor kutatásának történetét felvázoló, a múlt neves történészeinek gondolatait, vitáit megelevenítő írások is. A hazai szakmai közvélemény által már jól ismert tanulmányok e kötetben való közlését indokolja két, joggal szélsőségnek minősíthető álláspont megjelenése: egyfelől az Árpád-kor vizsgálatában feltűnő műkedvelő, a tudományos középtől messze távolodó megközelítések felerősödése, másfelől a külföldről érkező, a Szent István-i állam- és egyházalapítást posztmodern szempontok alapján kikezdő, megkérdőjelező álláspontok napvilágra kerülése.
Arming Black Consciousness
Since 1994, as the ruling party in South Africa, the ANC have become synonymous with and indivisible from the fight against apartheid rule. This has left little space for competing accounts, visions, and political projects to find their appropriate place in the historical narrative. In this innovative book, Toivo Asheeke moves beyond these well-trodden histories, to tell the previously neglected story of the Black Consciousness Movement (BCM), a militant revolutionary nationalist wing of the anti-colonial struggle. Using archival sources from four countries and interviews with former veterans of the movement, Asheeke explores the BCM''s engagement with guerrilla warfare, community feminism and Black Internationalism. Uncovering the personal and political histories of those who have previously received scant scholarly attention, Asheeke both illuminates the history of Africa''s decolonization struggle and that of the wider Cold War.

Divination
This Element adopts a naturalistic, cognitive perspective to understand divination. Following an overview of divination and the historical background of its scholarly study, Section 2 examines various definitions and proposes a working definition that balances common usage with theoretical coherence. Section 3 surveys existing theories of divination, including symbolic and functional perspectives, while critiquing their limitations. Section 4 argues for the primacy of cognition in divinatory practices, emphasizing the role of universal cognitive mechanisms and culturally specific worldviews in shaping their plausibility and persistence. Expanding on these ideas, Section 5 investigates the interplay between individual cognition and societal processes, highlighting socio-cultural factors such as the preferential reporting of successful outcomes that bolster divination''s perceived efficacy. Finally, Section 6 concludes by summarizing the Element''s key arguments and identifying open questions for future research on the cognitive dimension of divination.
Red, Green, and Sometimes Beige
Oh, that’s such red-flag behaviour. My love language is physical touch but hers is words of affirmation. But I have an anxious attachment style, I need frequent validation. Sound familiar? If you’ve been on the internet, chances are you’ve definitely heard of flags, trauma bonds, and attachment styles. But what do they even mean? Relationship Coach Kasturi Mahanta explains the common troubles plaguing our relationships from a therapist’s perspective. Through fictionalised accounts of problems she has coached people through, she explains the hows and the whys behind people’s behaviours, especially in romantic relationships—whether it be coping mechanisms, anger, or the invisible emotional labour a partner performs. Armed with exercises for readers to participate in, these chapters help us not only identify certain patterns and behaviours—in our partners and ourselves—but also delve into why they might occur. It aims to equip readers with a better understanding of the root causes of problems so that we may build and ultimately stay in healthy, long-term relationships
Imperial Incarceration
For nineteenth-century Britons, the rule of law stood at the heart of their constitutional culture, and guaranteed the right not to be imprisoned without trial. At the same time, in an expanding empire, the authorities made frequent resort to detention without trial to remove political leaders who stood in the way of imperial expansion. Such conduct raised difficult questions about Britain''s commitment to the rule of law. Was it satisfied if the sovereign validated acts of naked power by legislative forms, or could imperial subjects claim the protection of Magna Carta and the common law tradition? In this pathbreaking book, Michael Lobban explores how these matters were debated from the liberal Cape, to the jurisdictional borderlands of West Africa, to the occupied territory of Egypt, and shows how and when the demands of power undermined the rule of law. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Navigating Local Transitional Justice
In post-war Sierra Leone, a range of transitional justice mechanisms were implemented to address experiences of conflict, violence, and human rights violations. Much of the research on local transitional justice processes has focused on the work of organisations, failing to acknowledge how individual and communal dynamics shape and are shaped by these programs. Drawing on original fieldwork in Sierra Leone, Laura S. Martin moves beyond discussions measuring effectiveness and considers how people navigate their circumstances in conflict and post-conflict societies. Developing the idea of recognised and unrecognised transitional justice processes, Martin uses Fambul Tok as an example of a recognised local transitional justice program and shows how ordinary Sierra Leoneans appropriated Fambul Tok''s agenda for their own purposes. Ultimately, this book highlights the crucial role of agency and the diverse range of actors involved in transitional justice processes. Justice, as Martin powerfully argues, is not something that happens to or for people, but is enacted by individuals and communities.
African Military Politics in the Sahel
Challenging western and francocentric accounts of military interventions in the Sahel, Katharina P. W. Döring foregrounds the response of African regional organizations to armed violence since 2012. Based on extensive empirical research, she reconstructs the experiences of African intervenors in planning and deploying missions in the region. The book outlines the complex constellation of actors who shape African military politics, including presidents, diplomats, and bureaucrats. Drawing upon insights from critical geography, Döring considers the oft-neglected role that space ? at once relational and changing ? plays in the power dynamics of the region. In so doing, she offers a fresh perspective on military deployments and their politics. Amidst the current resurgence of nationalist geopolitics, this study and its ?ndings have far-reaching implications for the analysis of military politics in Africa and beyond.
