Irritated
'This book is an absolute joy. Easy to read, it takes you on a journey covering all the important angles. I will be recommending it to my patients who want to better understand their allergies.' Adam Fox OBE, professor of paediatric allergy and Chair of the National Allergy Strategy Do you live with a constantly runny nose, an itchy throat and sore eyes? Maybe you have eczema or get rashes from contact with allergens? Perhaps you or your children carry emergency adrenaline because an allergic reaction could be life-threatening? If so, you're definitely not alone: between a third and half of all UK adults will experience allergies at some point during their lifetime and the numbers are rising. We are more allergic now than we have been at any other time in history. * Peanut or tree nut allergy now runs at 1 in 70 children, versus 1 in 250 in 1997* Hospital admissions for anaphylaxis went up 174 per cent in the UK between 1998 and 2018* Around 21 million people have allergies in this country, but we have fewer than 80 adult and paediatric allergy specialist doctors * Children who grow up in deprived households are more likely to have allergies, asthma and eczema and for their symptoms to be severe* More than 80 per cent of people living with allergies say that it adversely affects their mental healthIrritated looks at why allergies have become so prevalent in recent years and asks whether there is anything we can do to stop more people developing them and help those who already have allergies to cope. Journalist Rebecca Seal writes about the difference between allergies and intolerances, the role of gut health and microbes in the development of allergies, how deprivation increases the risk of allergies and can make the experience of having them much worse, and offers practical strategies for managing both allergy symptoms and the anxiety which can come with them. Allergy is a complex and under-funded area of medicine, and there are few books out there to support families and adults living with allergies. This book provides the answers and information that people with allergies need, while making the science accessible and easy to understand.

Constructing Female Terrorism
News media reporting on female political violence invariably portrays the perpetrators as duped, naive and exploited, acting from personal rather than political motivations, as anomalous intruders in a masculine realm and de-feminized as monsters. By diminishing their agency, the challenge that women’s violence poses to the gendered national order is contained. Drawing on five comparative case studies spanning more than 70 years of militant campaigns against the UK and France, this book interrogates how media representations of politically violent women are shaped by gender, race, religion, class and geography. It considers how women’s political violence is framed, what influences these portrayals, and what ideological work they perform. In answering these questions, the book reveals how these representations operate as a battleground where the nation’s gendered boundaries are defined and defended, and the national order is reproduced.
Athens and Sparta
Two great cities. One fierce rivalry. Countless untold stories. Athens and Sparta were the two big players in Ancient Greece. United, they helped lead the Greeks in defeating the great Persian invasion. Divided, they spread conflict and destruction throughout the eastern Mediterranean. They were not simply rivals for power, but polar opposites in culture and ideology: Athens was the outward looking, radical democracy with a maritime empire whilst Sparta was militaristic, rigidly disciplined and brutal. Both were experiments in how to run a state, epitomising the extremes of the Greek longing to excel. This is a story of politics and war, but also of culture. In Athens, philosophers dissected the physical and moral world, writers spun forth comedy and drama, and new ideas filled the city. Athens could be vulgar and cruel, but no other state has ever allowed thousands of citizens to debate its laws freely. Sparta was innovative in other ways, with a society divided into strict class groups and an astonishing focus on military training. Both cities were paradoxes – they were at once remarkably ordered and surprisingly prone to savagery. Athens and Sparta tells a remarkable story of the drama and extremity of human behaviour. It draws on ancient sources and modern discoveries and boasts a wide-ranging cast of characters – statesmen, lawgivers, rabble-rousers, philosophers, artists, courtesans, wives and heroes. The history of these cities truly is a microcosm of the human experience, in all its wonder and horror.

Outsider Everywhere
In August 1939, a ship flying the Polish flag docked in Buenos Aires. On board was a delegation of businessmen, diplomats and journalists. Days later, the captain received orders to return home with all crew and passengers in light of the imminent outbreak of the Second World War. But one man, fascinated by the city, chose to stay at the very last minute. Thus began the unexpected twenty-four-year Argentine exile of one of the twentieth century’s major writers: Witold Gombrowicz. Drawing on his writings and interviews with surviving disciples, writers and scholars, Mercedes Halfon’s Outsider Everywhere traces Gombrowicz’s Argentine years in elegant, pared-back prose, and composes a vivid account of mid-century bohemia in Buenos Aires. Brilliantly translated by Rahul Bery, Mercedes Halfon’s Outsider Everywhere is a gripping portrait of a literary figure on the margins who rose to prominence late in life to become ‘one of the greatest novelists of our century’ (Milan Kundera).
The Anglo-Saxon Minsters of Winchester
This three-volume work offers a comprehensive study of Winchester’s three Anglo-Saxon minsters – Old Minster, New Minster and Nunnaminster/St Mary’s Abbey – together with their cemeteries, domestic buildings, and elements absorbed into the Norman cathedral including the setting for the cult of St Swithun. Scientific evidence, and documentary, architectural, and artistic sources are woven into the results of the major excavations carried out on the sites of Old and New Minster between 1961 and 1970, and later work on Nunnaminster/St Mary’s Abbey, to present a new synthesis of Winchester’s ecclesiastical landscape. Volume 1 explores the archaeology of the first church, its documented origins in the mid-seventh century, and north Italian inspiration. It traces the architectural and liturgical development of Old Minster into a major complex celebrating the cult of St Swithun, its design inspired by the Tomb of Christ in Jerusalem. Documentary sources for the foundation of New Minster, the memorial church for the house of Wessex, on the Frankish model of Saint-Denis, are examined; archaeological evidence, though less extensive, confirms its final scale and magnificence before its documented removal to Hyde Abbey. The destruction and robbing of the two minsters during the building of the Norman cathedral are detailed. Volume 2 analyses burial practices in the Old and New Minster cemeteries, and their British and Continental parallels. Their evolution into the medieval Paradise cemetery follows, with the later ‘memorial court’ focused on St Swithun’s original burial place. Key finds are summarized, including gold braids from the probable grave of the ninth-century prince Athelstan. The architectural setting in Winchester Cathedral of St Swithun’s cult is examined. The archaeology and history of Nunnaminster and its successor St Mary’s Abbey are explored. The wider context for the Minsters as part of the evolution of Winchester as royal power centre is summarized. An appendix reviews cross-plan churches in the Byzantine empire and Europe. In addition to the illustrations with the text, Volume 3 contains detailed plans and sections, photographs, phasing charts, and images of manuscripts, artefacts and comparative churches.

Bumping Into Geniuses
Step inside the rock ‘n’ roll world with this all-access pass from the music biz legend who collaborated with Led Zeppelin, Nirvana, Stevie Nicks, Bruce Springsteen, and more. In Bumping into Geniuses, Danny Goldberg chronicles his decades in the rock and roll biz—not only launching legendary acts to greater heights, but becoming friends with many of them. He tells mesmerizing stories of superstars like Kurt Cobain, Courtney Love, Bruce Springsteen, Warren Zevon, KISS, Led Zeppelin, and others. There may be no other music genre that has evolved like rock and roll. One man behind the scenes who has been hugely influential in defining it is Danny Goldberg, who started as a journalist in the ’60s but soon pivoted to become the American publicist for Led Zeppelin. He then became the personal manager for artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Stevie Nicks, Sonic Youth, the Allman Brothers Band, and Nirvana. More than a series of brilliantly painted rock-star portraits, this updated edition unpacks the last half century of the industry itself: an everchanging business that was complex and chaotic, a mixture of art and commerce, idealism and selfishness. And in the telling, Goldberg reveals how rock’s most gifted and influential musicians were able to release music which endures decades later. Originally published in 2008, the 2026 edition includes a new afterword by Goldberg with updated observations on the music business in the digital era, and rock culture in general as well as new anecdotes about several of the “geniuses” he worked with.
Nero and Paul
Does gaining power, possessions, and popularity lead to happiness and fulfillment? Or does inner transformation and self-sacrificial love bring the most joy and satisfaction? New York Times bestselling author Kathie Lee Gifford and scholar Bryan Litfin dive into these questions by bringing the stories of Nero and Paul to life in this creative nonfiction tale and identifying how these moral questions can be applied to modern Christian life. Centuries ago, against the backdrop of Roman domination and decadence, a rabbi-turned-evangelist challenged the ideology of an immoral emperor. Two competing messages clashed—and they were messages that echo into our modern world. One voice says, Do what feels good. Gain more influence. Focus on yourself and build your own kingdom. Another says, Live for something beyond yourself—something eternal. Carry out your God-given mission, no matter the cost. Follow your King to the end of the world if you must . Only then will you truly live. Combining historical accuracy with narrative imagination, Nero and Paul drops you into the drama of human pride and divine destiny that unfolded on the stage of imperial Rome. You'll travel with Paul as he ventured from Jerusalem all the way to Spain, making friends, winning converts, and persisting through grueling opposition. You'll see up close Nero's kingdom of wealth, glamour, sex, and power—the proud trappings of a self-proclaimed god. In contrast, Paul boldly offered what the world desperately needed: the Messiah's life-giving good news of God's presence indwelling his people. Though this epic clash of worldviews led to bloodshed and death, the crown of eternal life triumphed over the laurel wreaths of Rome—just as the light of Jesus triumphs over the darkness of the world in every age. Don't miss this ancient story with a timeless message that reverberates across the centuries and will light the fire of your faith today.

Bosorky
Román polské autorky Agnieszky Szpily Bosorky může na mnohé působit jako zjevení. Drzost, otevřenost a naštvanost, s níž píše, se nejspíš nebude všem líbit a mnozí čtenáři či čtenářky ji nemusejí skousnout. Ovšem fakt, že se v roce 2022 dostal do dvacítky nominovaných knih na prestižní literární ocenění NIKE, svědčí o tom, že minimálně polské kritiky a jistou vrstvu polských čtenářů zaujal. Knihou se prolínají dva příběhy – jeden ze současnosti, druhý ze středověku. V obou vystupují výrazné ženské postavy: generální ředitelka velké společnosti Anna Šibnerová a Mathilde Spalt zvaná Zemitá, která šíří nauku o Staropanně.

Broken Republik
For many years, the post-war recovery of Germany was an inspirational story. Companies like Mercedes-Benz and Siemens became global titans, while the country's political leaders earned respect around the world. Even when the Berlin Wall fell, it initially seemed to reunify effortlessly.
But even at its peak, there were signs of trouble. So, when events started to turn against Germany, everything started to crumble. Volkswagen's emissions scandal damaged its industrial reputation, abandoning nuclear power left it reliant on Russia, and growing inequality boosted the far-right AfD.
Now updated for this edition, Broken Republik tells the compelling story of Germany's decline - where it all went wrong and how it could bounce back.
