Relegated
For fans of Ted Lasso and Welcome to Wrexham, this rollicking travel memoir by a middle-aged Midwesterner is a hilarious and heartfelt journey through the United Kingdom, its football clubs, and the rich traditions of English football culture. Relegation, the devastating consequence English football teams face when they underperform, is something Todd Smith kept seeing in his own life. He grew up surrounded by soccer: his father was the head athletic trainer for the Minnesota Kicks of the 70s-era North American Soccer League, and Todd played into college. But while his family life was happy after that, his professional life didn’t go the way of his dreams. He spent two decades working tirelessly in blue-collar jobs while trying to break through as a writer. He often felt discouraged, like he’d never really made it, like he himself had been demoted to a lower league. In Relegated, Todd embarks on a trip of personal and professional discovery. Looking for a change and a chance to write about something that really matters to him, he takes off for a multi-month, immersive expedition through the world and culture of English football. He visits not only the best clubs but also the most out of the way and forgotten ones. In these places, like the Old Spotted Dog Ground in East London, the port town of Grimsby (once voted the worst city in England), and Arbroath on the north coast of Scotland, he begins to understand what it means to be a “true” supporter of this historic and cherished game. He meets pub owners, groundskeepers, fan club organizers, and professional and amateur players who show him a deeper love of the sport. He learns how communities rally around a club, how much joy and suffering they can take, and how football clubs—even the lesser-known ones—can bond people together in memories that last a lifetime. A heartwarming account featuring pints, meat pies, a rainbow of team scarves and banners, and some very colorful slang, Relegated is the story of a man looking to transform himself while discovering the true meaning of English football.

Mum Of Two: Love, Loss and My Life on Towie
"I am a mum of two beautiful daughters, Larose and Lorena. "My eldest, Larose, is the light of my life. She is so like I was as a child and with her big brown eyes, the double of her father too. And she loves to be the centre of attention... just like me. "But my youngest, Lorena, is harder to picture. I was able to hold her as a baby and see her tiny face, but I don't know what the colour of her eyes would be now or who she would look like today. I've never heard the sound of her laugh, or her cry."In Mum of Two, Lauren Goodger shares the story of losing her daughter, recounting the unimaginable, as she revisits navigating the hardest thing any parent could ever experience. This moving book explores not only the event itself, but the way in which the people around her responded, and how their actions drove her to become the strongest version of herself. Lauren recounts this life-altering tragedy from the moment the midwife couldn't find a heartbeat through to the most difficult days, months and years of her life that followed in its wake. In the aftermath of the worst thing that could happen to any mother, she realises none of those books, and none of those Instagram or TikTok videos, will tell you about what will happen if your baby doesn't make it. The reality is that you find out that no one will ever want to talk about it, or even talk to you, because no one knows what to say. Losing your baby doesn't turn off biology, your boobs still leak milk and you still bleed for days on end. You still have sleepless nights but it's your cries that keep you up, not your baby's. You might be terrified, like Lauren, of having that tiny wicker casket in your house and not knowing where to put it. Mum of Two is an exploration of motherhood, loss, and grief - but also of immense inner- strength, courage, and resilience.

Buli a múzeumban) és tipikus ajánlatok (pl. Quadriga tizenkét oszlopon) után megismertet a könyv a város sajátosságaival, majd az egyes negyedekkel: Mitte történelemmel terhes, a császári palotától a sztálini sugárútig. Tiergarten a kormányzati negyed, bevásárlóutcák és néhány kocogóval. Prenzlauer Berg/Friedrichshainban menő berliniek élnek a falmaradványok árnyékában. Kreuzbergben a punk és a polgári lét találkozik zsidó hagyományok és török hétköznapok között. Charlottenburg/Wilmersdorf a notórius bevásárlók, az ínyencek, a kultúra iránt érdeklődők és a sportkedvelők negyede. A sorozatra jellemző élménytúrák Berlinbe végigvisznek az egykori fal mentén, történelmi sétára hívnak Spandauba, kicsábítanak biciklivel a zöldbe és hajózásra invitálnak a cityn keresztül.

Economica
'Erudite, ambitious and richly global in scope' - PETER FRANKOPAN, author of The Silk Roads
'This book sets a new standard in economic history' - TIM HARFORD, author of How To Make the World Add Up
How many times have we been told that the working woman is a modern phenomenon? That men were responsible for the prosperity of humanity? That women's production was, for much of human history, confined to reproduction?
Economica shows that women have always been at the heart of economic progress, as entrepreneurs, merchants and industrialists - from Phryne, the richest woman in Ancient Athens, to Ching Shih, a sex-worker turned pirate who controlled trade in the South China Sea. Author Victoria Bateman also highlights the amazing stories of female workers who built the Pyramids, traded on the Silk Road and dominated London's medieval breweries.
Spanning the past twelve millennia, from the Stone Age to the present day, Economica rewrites our understanding of women's role in the economy, and tells a more accurate history of us all.
