The book we all read right now: the definitive guide to communicating and connecting wherever you are.Email replies that show up a week later. Video chats full of ‘oops sorry no you go’ and ‘can you hear me?!’ Ambiguous text-messages. Weird punctuation you can’t make heads or tails of. Is it any wonder communication takes us so much time and effort to figure out? How did we lose our innate capacity to understand each other?Humans rely on body language to connect and build trust, but with most of our communication happening from behind a screen, traditional body language signals are no longer visible – or are they? In Digital Body Language, Erica Dhawan, a go-to thought leader on collaboration and a passionate communication junkie, combines cutting edge research with engaging storytelling to decode the new signals and cues that have replaced traditional body language across genders, generations, and culture. In real life, we lean in, uncross our arms, smile, nod and make eye contact to show we listen and care. Online, reading carefully is the new listening. Writing clearly is the new empathy. And a phone or video call is worth a thousand emails.Digital Body Language will turn your daily misunderstandings into a set of collectively understood laws that foster connection, no matter the distance. Dhawan investigates a wide array of exchanges—from large conferences and video meetings to daily emails, texts, IMs, and conference calls—and offers insights and solutions to build trust and clarity to anyone in our ever changing world.

How to Draw a Map is a fascinating meditation on the centuries-old art of map-making, from the first astronomical maps to the sophisticated GPS guides of today.Maps have influenced humanity in many unexpected ways: life, death, sexual reproduction, espionage, war and peace. How to Draw a Map traces the story of mapmaking — cartography — from the first scratchings on the cave wall to the detailed high-tech ‘navigator’. This is the story of human conceptions, often misconceptions, of our world. It is also a very personal story about a mapmaker’s journey through life — the exciting new perspectives and the occasional misadventures.Over the last 5,000 years societies and empires have risen and fallen; most, if not all, attempt to record their own visions of our world. In the 15th century, Europeans developed a global reach with their oceanic ships, exploring outward into the world, revealing new possibilities, peoples and opportunities. Mapmakers recorded this journey, revealing to us a window into past triumphs and disasters. The story continues into our own day when diplomats carve up our globe, presenting what we now see as the ‘modern’ world.In How to Draw a Map, father and son cartographers Alexander and Malcolm Swanston demonstrate the skill, creativity and care involved in the timeless art of creating maps — and what these artefacts reveal about the legion of mapmakers who went before us.

The head of the family, Nana, is a woman who has buried two sons and whose life has been the family farm.

It is only when they must battle for the inheritance of Dirt Island — a narrow strip of land adjacent to Eileen’s childhood home — that they truly understand the roots that bind their lives together.

TV presenter and all-round car nut Ant Anstead takes the reader on a journey that mirrors the development of the motor car itself from a stuttering 20mph annoyance that scared everyone’s horses to 150mph pursuits with aerial support and sophisticated electronic tracking.The British Police Force’s relationship with the car started by chasing after pioneer speeding motorists on bicycles. As speed restrictions eased in the early twentieth century and car ownership increased, the police embraced the car. Criminals were stealing cars to sell on or to use as getaway vehicles and the police needed to stay ahead, or at least only one step behind. The arms race for speed, which culminated in the police acquiring high-speed pursuit vehicles such as Subaru Impreza Turbos, had begun.Since then the car has become essential to everyday life. Deep down everyone loves a police car. Countless enthusiasts collect models in different liveries and legendary police cars become part of the nation’s shared consciousness.Ant Anstead spent the first six years of his working life as a cop. He was part of the armed response team, one of the force’s most elite units. In this fascinating new history of the British police car, Ant looks at the classic cars, from the Met’s Wolseleys to the Senator, the motorway patrol car officers loved most, via unusual and unexpected police vehicles such as the Arial Atom. It’s a must-read for car enthusiasts, social historians and anyone who loves a good car chase, Cops and Robbers is a rip-roaring celebration of the police car and the men and women who drive them.

From award-winning historian Saul David, an action-packed and powerful new narrative of the Battle of Okinawa — the last great clash of the Second World War, and one that had profound consequences for the modern world.For eighty-three blood-soaked days, the fighting on the island of Okinawa plumbed depths of savagery as bad as anything seen on the Eastern Front. When it was over, almost a quarter of a million people had lost their lives, making it by far the bloodiest US battle of the Pacific. In Okinawa, the death toll included thousands of civilians lost to mass suicide, convinced by Japanese propaganda that they would otherwise be raped and murdered by the enemy. On the US side, David argues that the horror of the battle ultimately determined President Truman’s choice to use atomic bombs in August 1945.It is a brutal, heart-rending story, and one David tells with masterly attention to detail: the cramped cockpit of a kamikaze plane, the claustrophobic gun turret of a warship under attack, and a half-submerged foxhole amidst the squalor and battle detritus. The narrative follows generals, presidents and emperors, as well as the humbler experiences of ordinary servicemen and families on both sides, and the Okinawan civilians who were caught so tragically between the warring parties.Using graphic eyewitness accounts and declassified documents from archives in three continents, Saul David illuminates a shocking chapter of history that is too often missing from Western-centric narratives of the Second World War.

In Candide, Voltaire threw down an audacious challenge to the philosophical views of the Enlightenment to create one of the most glorious satires of the eighteenth century. His eponymous hero is an innocent young man whose tutor, Pangloss, has instilled in him the belief that ‘all is for the best’. But when his love for the Baron’s rosy-cheeked daughter is discovered, Candide is cast out to make his own fortune. As he and his various companions roam over the world, an outrageous series of disasters — earthquakes, syphilis, the Inquisition — sorely test the young hero’s optimism, holding a mirror up to all fanatics, zealots and moral reformers of humankind.Translated and Edited by Theo Cuffe with an Introduction by Michael Wood

What happens when vast population growth endangers the world’s food supplies? Or our water? Our energy needs, climate, or environment? Or the planet’s biodiversity? What happens if these all become critical at once? Just what is our future?In End Game, world-renowned scientists Anthony Barnosky and Elizabeth Hadly explain the growing threats to humanity as the planet edges towards a resource war for remaining space, food, oil and water. And as they show, these wars are not the nightmares of a dystopian future but are already happening today. They explore the origins of Ebola in densely populated areas of south-eastern Guinea, witness raging fires in Yellowstone and Colorado and explain how drought-induced food shortages are already causing problems in the Sudan, Gaza Strip and Iraq. Finally, they ask: at what point will inaction become the break-up of the intricate workings of the global society?The planet is in danger now, but the solutions, as Barnosky and Hadly show, are still available. We still have the chance to avoid the tipping point and to make the future better. But this window of opportunity is closing fast and will shut within ten-to-twenty years. End Game is the call we need.

This is a book that calls time on the endless tide of violence against women and the failures of our criminal justice system to respond.From barrister Harriet Johnson, Enough lays bare the appalling status quo of abuse against women in our society, offering an irrefutable case for why change is needed in policing and justice. Most vitally, it also gives a manifesto for how to get there.With expertise, clear-sightedness and appropriate fury, this book helps us see where women are suffering – from homicide to domestic abuse to street harassment. It exposes the ways the criminal justice system lets women down – from officers failing to properly investigate to a lack of consequences when police behaviour is unacceptable, to backlogged courts and the realities of convincing a jury.Addressing misogyny is to everyone’s benefit and the answers aren’t simple. Enough is the call to arms we can – and must – all get behind.

В книге Александра Хабло «Сумеречный патруль. Золотой след» лейтенант Никитин увидел то, что раскрыло ему тайну сумеречного мира, населенного домовыми, русалками и прочими созданиями. Зелье, стирающее память, на него не подействовало. Так он стал сотрудником секретной организации ФСКА. Вместе с наставником он будет ловить колдуна, торгующего запрещенной травой.»Об аномальных существах и явлениях сумеречного мира из числа людей могут знать только сотрудники ФСКА и их агенты, а ты ни к одной из этих категорий не относишься, поэтому уж извиняй».Лейтенант Никитин — главный герой фэнтезийного детектива Александра Хабло «Сумеречный патруль. Золотой след» выполнял рядовое задание по службе и стал свидетелем вещей, знать о которых ему было не по рангу. В такой ситуации выход один — стереть память и дело с концом, благо у соответствующих тайных организаций средства имеются. Но вот не задача — на парня снадобье не подействовало как положено. Он ничего не забыл, что сделало его пригодных для работы в сумеречном патруле. Организация, познакомиться с которой предлагает автор, является аналогом спецслужб, где все строго засекречено. Главная тайна, которую хранят сотрудники — существование рядом с людьми сверхъестественных созданий. Среди них домовые, русалки, диканы и многие другие. Некоторые умеют колдовать и далеко не все пользуются своим даром во благо. Именно такой «плохой» парень становится на пути Никитина и его наставника, в чьи обязанности входит познакомить новичка со всеми сторонами сумеречного мира и особенностями работы местных специалистов, которые должны контролировать деятельность существ. Остросюжетное произведение строится на расследовании злодеяний некоего колдуна, решившего ради своих корыстных целей подчинить некоего домового и превратить его в настоящее орудие для убийства. Кроме того, именно этот негодяй в ответе за контрабанду запрещенной волшебной травы. Чтобы поймать преступника, героям надо нарушить множество правил. А это может иметь для них самые серьезные последствия и точно умножит количество опасностей, которыми они подвергаются. Каждый сюжетный поворот происходит совершенно неожиданно. Сверхъестественное добавляет «изюминку» к детективному сюжету, усложняет общую картину, запутывает это и без того сложное дело. Благодаря особым обстоятельствам персонажи быстрее и полнее раскрывают особенности своих характеров, имеют больше шансов проявить лучшие и худшие качества и таким образом становятся более понятными и близкими читателю. Детективная и фэнтезийная ветка соседствует с драматической. Ее снова — человеческие взаимоотношения. Разговор о человечности как таковой — важная составляющая истории. Динамика не мешает восприятию глубинного смысла, заложенного Александром Хабло на страницы. С подачи автора придется задуматься о границах допустимого, пределах подчинения, значении собственного мнения при принятии судьбоносных решений, мере ответственности и риске.

Someone is desperate to protect the truth and it isn’t just Caily’s life that is in danger.Because some secrets are worth killing for…

‘Orlando had become a woman – there is no denying it. But in every other respect, Orlando remained precisely as he had been. The change of sex, though it altered their future, did nothing whatever to alter their identity.’Boisterous and defiant, Virginia Woolf’s queer classic subverts restraints of genre, time and gender. Traversing the complexities of human emotion and society’s obsession with conformity, the wild adventures of Woolf’s gender fluid hero begin in Elizabethan England and end in 1928 – yet Orlando ages just 36 years.A satirical romp that spans over three hundred years of history, Woolf’s fantastical biography was decades ahead of its time.
