The Edge of Silence
A journey like no other. Acclaimed nature writer Neil Ansell has suffered from progressive hearing loss his whole life. As his world is becoming ever more silent, he suddenly hears something quite unexpected – the haunting call of the great northern diver. It is this extraordinary experience which makes him realise that there might still be remarkable sounds in nature within his reach – if he can only find himself in the right place at the right time. This moving book charts Neil’s mission to hear rare and elusive creatures that he had not previously encountered. This journey takes him from the mountaintops and islands of the Scottish Highlands to the marshes of England and the hills of Wales. Many of these species are in grave danger of extinction, so the future Neil faces, devoid of their distinctive calls, is one we all must fight to prevent.

The Courage to Welcome
What does it mean to lead with compassion in a world riven by fear, at a time when the responses to forced displacement hold the power to reshape communities? How can institutions and individuals sustain solidarity amid rising divisio? his moving reflection of Filippo Grandi’s ten years as UN High Commissioner for Refugees and four decades spent working in humanitarian crises across the world addresses the growing complexity of forced displacement, its repercussions for international relations, and the challenges it poses for governments. Grandi calls for greater cooperation between nations and considers measures – along displacement routes and in host countries – which would provide life-saving assistance to refugees as well as preserve international cooperation and goodwill. He suggests a universal responsibility not to exacerbate division but to work diligently on the space between pragmatism and principle. Taking up this challenge, Catherine Ashton’s response to Grandi draws on her own distinguished leadership during some of the most important moments that have shaped contemporary diplomacy, and suggests how enduring principles can be retained within the realities of public life.
The Blindspot
WHAT IS POWER, WHO KNOWS ABOUT IT AND HOW DID THEY FIND OU? ower lurks in every relationship, interaction and transaction but is scarcely understood even by those who wield it most. In The Blindspot, executive coach Douglas Board and priest Martin Henwood offer a radical, accessible and practical exploration of power which breaks new ground. The book reflects on more than sixty real-life incidents, including forty from the authors’ personal and professional experience. These range from corporate misconduct and gross abuse of authority in hospitals, churches and schools, to whistleblowing at Uber, leadership change at Sainsbury’s and selection decisions in the heart of government. The authors expose how poorly our elite leaders understand power. This missing knowledge they place in your hands. The Blindspot uses the idea of human chess to examine how we are all, at every moment, pieces playing and being played on multiple boards simultaneously. It analyses how knowledge about power is distributed across society, predicts the rise of the first power-literate generation, and suggests how all of us can accelerate this future.
Seeking Mea Allan
‘I’m in love with May Chalmers and I don’t know what to do about it.’It was a bold, unexpected confession, scribbled in a diary by one of the few female reporters in Fleet Street during the Second World War – and it sent Felicity Goodall on a journey that led to places she could never have imagined. Mea Allan was a star reporter on Britain’s biggest-selling daily paper, the first woman on a Fleet Street news desk and to be permanently accredited to the British Army as a war correspondent, and the only woman to report from newly liberated Bergen-Belsen concentration camp and cover the subsequent trials. She was once so famous that her name was used to advertise Horlicks – and yet she has all but disappeared from history. Seeking Mea Allan interweaves past and present as we travel from London to Glasgow, from Paris to Hamburg and beyond, to answer the questions that still linger: was Mea written out of history because of her sexuality? Or was something more subtle at work?
