Too Sensitive
Too much. Too emotional. Too sensitive.A lack of response from a friend about weekend plans has you replaying every interaction, wondering if they’re pulling away.A short, blunt message from your manager leaves you convinced you’re in trouble, even if there’s no clear sign.Your partner is distant for a minute because he’s preoccupied with work, and you assume the relationship’s over.From leading psychiatrist Dr Sasha Hamdani comes this groundbreaking, practical guide to an overlooked, frequently misunderstood phenomenon: Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria. Often, but not exclusively, found in people with ADHD, RSD is extreme emotional pain triggered by the perception of rejection or criticism.Blending psychiatry, neuroscience and her own lived experience, Dr Hamdani offers a clear explanation of the condition, and a questionnaire to assess your own level of emotional sensitivity. Her CALM YOUR MIND twelve-step protocol is a suite of tools, from Label Your Emotions to Understand Your Triggers, proven to help handle extreme emotion and spiralling.Too Sensitive also features an extensive rundown of real-life situations known to trigger RSD, covering relationships, work and career, friendships, family and self worth and sets out how to manage them, in the moment, using the CALM YOUR MIND tools,“Whether you’ve always known you were “sensitive” or you’re just beginning to understand it, this is your guide to turning that sensitivity into strength.”
The Telephone
From the New York Times bestselling author, a thrilling history of the telephone and how we fell in and out of love with a technology that changed not just the world, but changed us.'Charts our distance-compressing, time-shifting telephonic adventure with exceptional brio and subtlety' – Elizabeth Kolbert, author of The Sixth ExtinctionOne hundred and fifty years ago the telephone burst onto the world stage like magic, a supernatural instrument bringing voices from afar. Its invention has been celebrated as a triumph of individual ingenuity and vision, but was in fact a contest replete with bribery, fraud and speculation, and no one, not even its inventors, realised what it was good for or how ubiquitous it would become.Instantly, the ability to speak across vast distances began to transform every part of life: from business organization to military tactics, from news gathering to sex work. Along the way, the telephone changed human nature. As it settled into the background – in offices and on streets, on bedside tables and kitchen walls – people forgot how they ever lived without it.In The Telephone, bestselling author James Gleick reveals the continuous revolution sparked by its invention and the corrupt scheming and ruthless tactics of those who sought to make money from it, tracking the rise of the largest monopoly in history.As dial telephones, landlines, telephone books and telephone booths vanish into the past, he shows how this commonplace object irreversibly changed not only the world but who we are as human beings.'Gleick does what only the best science writers can do: take a subject of which most of us are only peripherally aware and put it at the center of the universe' – Time

The Coastal Garden
Explore the world’s most stunning coastlines in this breathtaking collection of gardens by the sea
Creating gardens in harmony with their environment is a key aspect of garden design today. Nowhere is this more apparent than in gardens created on our coastlines, whether that be atop a rocky Mediterranean cliffside, tucked in a sheltered bay on Britain’s south coast, or on the edge of a sandy beach in Australia. Rooted in their location and offering unforgettable water views, coastal gardens embody an atmosphere of tranquillity, beauty, and an intenseconnection with nature.
The Coastal Garden invites readers to explore 48 extraordinary private gardens set along the world’s most iconic coastlines. These verdant spaces represent a broad variety of terrains, climates, and garden styles – from Bernard Trainor’s design for a surfing family, overlooking the waves in sunny California, to Ulf Nordfjell’s thoughtful, rambling garden on the southern coast of Sweden.
The gardens address one of four different contexts for coastal environments: gardens atop rocky cliffs, planting for resiliency, framing ocean views, and gardens on the beach. The four chapters open with an exploratory text on the theme by writer and editor Sorrel Everton. Each garden feature is then brought to life through striking, large-scale color photographs and a short informative text, also written by Everton. Descriptive image captions provide further context, including planting information and special design details.
Along with in-depth garden features, an introduction by acclaimed plantsman and designer Nigel Dunnett offers insights into both the natural obstacles and incredible benefits of coastal gardens. A garden directory at the back, organized geographically, allows for easy reference.
Beautifully produced and filled with inspiration, The Coastal Garden will transport home gardeners, professional designers, and armchair travelers to these exceptional green spaces overlooking our oceans and seas.
Featured garden designers include: Paul Bangay, Louis Benech, Isabel Duprat, Jennifer Gay, Daniel Hinkley, Phillip Johnson, Raymond Jungles, Ron Lutsko, Jean Mus, Watson + Pellacini, Rees Roberts + Partners, and STIMSON
Featured garden photographers include : Heidi Bertish, Richard Bloom, Jason Ingram, Marianne Majerus, Clive Nichols, and Claire Takacs
The New Dark Ages
The world we knew is passing away and nothing will ever be the same again.
Welcome to the post-literate society. Books are dying. Across the world the number of people reading is in free fall. Literacy is declining or stagnating in most developed countries. At universities, students are unable to read the books assigned to them. Addictive digital entertainment technologies have colonised our free time with infantilising ‘slop’. For the first time since the collapse of the Western Roman Empire ushered in the Dark Ages, the golden chain of knowledge linking reader to reader through the centuries is breaking. The decline in reading is the most important cultural shift of our time.The New Dark Ages is an impassioned defence of the written word and an attack on the trivial and meaningless culture of the screen. Drawing on history and classic works of literature and theory, The New Dark Ages argues that reading and writing are essential for innovation, creativity and critical thinking.Above all, the culture of print is essential to the functioning of modern democracies which require their citizens to grapple with ideas at length and in depth. And as print dies, we risk returning to the chaos, tribalism, and rage of a pre-literate society.

Horoskopy 2027
Touha poznat skrze hvězdy budoucnost a třeba o trochu lépe porozumět sami sobě a tomu, co se nám v životě děje, je snad stejně stará jako lidstvo samo. Jako každý rok jsou tu proto oblíbené horoskopy, které sestavuje PhDr. Olga Krumlovská, známá astroložka a spisovatelka. Zvídaví čtenáři si v nich mohou najít základní předpovědi na následující rok, rady, čím se řídit a čeho se vyvarovat, jak pečovat o partnerské vztahy, o své zdraví a finance. Horoskopy jsou vypracovány nejen pro základních dvanáct znamení, ale i pro tzv. dekany, jimiž autorka rozděluje každé znamení na tři „podznamení“, takže jednotlivé předpovědi jsou mnohem výstižnější a přesnější.

Nehézsúlyú szépség
Annie 34 éves, kétszáz kilós szűz, aki reménytelen magányban tengeti napjait. Egészen addig, amíg fel nem tűnik a színen a rámenős tévés szerkesztő, Camilla, aki a bizalmába férkőzve meggyőzi, hogy vegyen részt az ország legnépszerűbb fogyókúrás valóságshow-jában. A műsorkészítők kényszerközösségébe csöppenve azonban hamar kiderül, hogy senki sem egészen azt akarja, amire szerződött: Annie csak egy barátnőt akar, az állandó pénz- és evészavarokkal küzdő műsorvezető, Johanna bármit megtenne, hogy felfigyeljenek rá, a producer, Jarmo pedig kizárólag arra koncentrál, hogy kiszabadítsa lányát iskolai bántalmazói karmaiból. Moa Herngren szatirikus, lélektani fordulatokkal teli regénye kíméletlen őszinteséggel világít rá, mi marad az emberből, ha mindenét kiszolgáltatja egy cinikus, profitorientált gépezetnek – de azt is megmutatja, hogyan lehet kiszabadulni egy olyan rendszerből, ahol a sebezhetőség merő árucikk, a siker nem több látszatnál, a lájkok és szívecskék pedig kizárólag az öncsalás eszközei.

Vanished
SHORTLISTED FOR THE ROYAL SOCIETY TRIVEDI SCIENCE BOOK PRIZE 2025 & BSHS PICKSTONE PRIZE 2026A GUARDIAN & TELEGRAPH BEST SCIENCE BOOK 2025WATERSTONES BEST POPULAR SCIENCE BOOK 2025'A vital and important book' David OlusogaFrom an award-winning historian of race, science and empire, a path-breaking and poignant history of extinction as a scientific idea, an imperial legacy and a political choiceAnyone alive today is among a tiny fraction of the once living: over 90% of species that ever existed are now extinct. How did we come to think of ourselves as survivors in a world where species can vanish forever, or as capable of pushing our planet to the verge of a sixth mass extinction?Extinction, Sadiah Qureshi shows us, is a surprisingly modern concept – and a phenomenon that’s not as natural as we might think. In Europe until the late eighteenth century, species were considered perfect and unchanging creations of God. Then in the age of revolutions, scientists gathered enough fossil evidence to determine that mammoth bones, for example, were not just large elephants but a lost species that once roamed the Earth alongside ancient humans. Extinction went from being regarded as theologically dangerous to pervasive, and even inevitable.Yet Vanished shows us that extinction is more than a scientific idea; it’s a political choice that has led to devasting consequences. Europeans and Americans quickly used the notion that extinction was a natural process to justify persecution and genocide, predicting that nations from Newfoundland’s Beothuk to Aboriginal Australians were doomed to die out from imperial expansion.Exploring the tangled and unnatural histories of extinction and empire, Vanished weaves together pioneering original research and breath-taking storytelling to show us extinction is both an evolutionary process and a human act: one which illuminates our past, and may alter our future.
The Death Ship
Whoever survived the Yorikke could never be frightened any more during his lifetime by anythingStateless and stranded after he loses his passport, sailor Gerald Gales flees arrest and persecution across Europe, until he finally finds work on the Yorikke, a decrepit ‘death ship’ bound for destruction. Condemned to stoke the furnaces, Gales must navigate a labyrinth of surreal rules and the brutal realities of life at sea if he is to make it out alive. First published in 1926 and thought to bear the traces of the mysterious author B. Traven’s own experience of migrating to Mexico, The Death Ship is a darkly absurd, raging tale about what it takes to survive when life is cheap.
