The Iron Duke: Bobby Windsor – The Life and Times of a Working-Class Rugby Hero
Lions legend Bobby Windsor has enjoyed triumphs beyond the dreams of most international players but has also suffered personal tragedy. His rugby career as the best hooker in the British Isles during the second golden era of Welsh rugby in the 1970s is a turbulent tale of blood and thunder on the pitch. There are riotous incidents off the pitch, including unscheduled fights with professional boxers, revelations about illegal payments during the so-called amateur era and what Windsor did to upset the Establishment and become blackballed by one of the most famous clubs in the world.
Windsor’s irrepressible sense of humour comes shining through on every page, except when he gives chapter and verse on the personal crisis that drove him to plan suicide.
The Iron Duke is the no-holds-barred, warts-and-all story of a working-class Welsh folk hero who rose from humble beginnings to become a permanent member of the greatest Lions team in the history of rugby union.

The Tao of Islam: A Sourcebook on Gender Relationships in Islamic Thought
“This is a genuine foundational work in Islamic studies. It is an open door into the very heart of Islamic civilization, while at the same time it suggests the bases of important comparisons and insights for those interested in cognate areas in Western cultures.“It is a fascinating, truly original work in both its guiding perspectives and its comprehensive, clearly presented account of a central dimension of Islam. There is nothing like it, and it deserves a wide audience.” — James W. Morris, Oberlin College
“It clearly, competently, and comprehensively describes the worldview implicit in the medieval Islamic “wisdom” tradition represented by Sufism and Shi’i philosophy, particularly the way that gender concepts are implicit in their cosmology and psychology, and can be related to the Taoist concepts of yin and yang. The author’s critique of feminism and modern reformism on this basis is penetrating.” — Valerie Hoffman-Ladd, University of Illinois
The Tao of Islam is a rich and diverse anthology of Islamic teachings on the nature of the relationships between God and the world, the world and the human being, and the human being and God. Focusing on gender symbolism, Sachiko Murata shows that Muslim authors frequently analyze the divine reality and its connections with the cosmic and human domains with a view toward a complementarity or polarity of principles that is analogous to the Chinese idea of yin/yang.
Murata believes that the unity of Islamic thought is found, not so much in the ideas discussed, as in the types of relationships that are set up among realities. She pays particular attention to the views of various figures commonly known as “Sufis” and “philosophers,” since they approach these topics with a flexibility and subtlety not found in other schools of thought. She translates several hundred pages, most for the first time, from more than thirty important Muslims including the Ikhwan al-Safa’, Avicenna, and Ibn al-‘Arabi.

The Secure Base Model: Promoting attachment and resilience in foster care and adoption
All children need to feel secure in their relationships with the adults who look after them. Where children have not experienced the kind of sensitive parenting that promotes security and resilience, they will find it difficult to trust and will struggle with managing their feelings and behaviour. What strategies can be used to provide sensitive caregiving that develops secure close relationships? How can children be helped to recover from earlier harmful experiences and feel competent to face future challenges successfully and fulfil their potential? What can help children develop resilience, self-esteem and the capacity to reflect on their feelings and have a sense of hope for the future? Secure Base is a model of caregiving in fostering and adoption that is based on theories of attachment and resilience while also drawing on child placement research. It provides a valuable framework and a strengths-based approach for making sense of children s needs and behaviours and sets out the dimensions of caregiving that can support children to thrive and to fulfil their potential. This practical guide to the Secure Base is designed to support social workers and other professionals involved in all aspects of fostering and adoption practice, from recruitment, assessment and preparation to matching and long-term support for placements through to adulthood. It will enable workers to effectively promote attachment and resilience in foster care.Read more

The Selected Essays of John Berger
The collected essays of one of the world’s greatest writers and thinkers
Booker wining novelist, playwright, essayist, poet and critic – even admirers rarely know John Berger in all his literary incarnations. This collection of essays will, for the first time, take a definitive look at his extraordinary career.
Far from being footnotes to the main body of work Berger’s essays are absolutely central to it. Many of the ideas of the groundbreaking Ways of Seeing were presented first in essays published in New Society. Polemical, reflective, radically original, Berger’s wide-ranging essays emphasise the continuities that have underpinned more than 40 years of tireless intellectual inquiry and political engagement. Viewed chronologically they add up, in fact, to a kind of vicarious autobiography and a history of our time as refracted through the prism of art.
Edited by Geoff Dyer, and published on the occasion of his 75th birthday, this is an essential collection by one of the world’s greatest writers.

The Self-Love Journal for Teen Girls: A Fun and Empowering Journal to Build Confidence and Cultivate Self-Awareness, Self-Love, Self-Care and Self-Growth (New Books For Teens)
Did you know 7 in 10 girls believe that they are not good enough or don’t measure up in some way, including their looks, performance in school and relationships with friends and family members?This journal is full of fun and empowering exercises that she’ll absolutely love!
Self-love can change your life — and starting that practice of self-love in your teens can truly change the game. When we flip the script on negative self-talk, limiting beliefs and self-doubt, we can change the course of our lives. Self-love is that powerful.
Think about your life. What could change if you had real self-confidence? What could be different if you truly believed in yourself, instead of doubted? How could you feel if you loved yourself the way you love others? The answer is that it would be life-altering.
Self-love isn’t selfish. It means loving yourself the way you deserve to be loved. It’s an ongoing process of treating yourself with respect, setting realistic goals, knowing and liking yourself, valuing your feelings, and truly embracing who you are. When we don’t live in a place of self-love, things can feel pretty challenging. It always feels like we’re fighting a battle with ourselves. And in the end, no one wins that battle. You deserve better. You are worthy of love. You are full of possibilities. Start the journey here.
This journal is full of fun and empowering exercises that she’ll absolutely love!
This journal is a guided experience through fun activities and journaling exercises that explore four core areas:
- Self-Awareness
- Self-Love
- Self-Care
- Self-Growth
Here are a few things you can expect to learn:
To Be More Self-Aware: You can’t love someone you don’t know. So get to know yourself on a deeper level with over 23 Activities and 4 free-write journaling pages.
To Show Yourself More Love: Learn how to identify negative self-talk and crush it before it becomes a nuisance. Use the Self-Compassion Check, to see if you are too harsh on yourself – page 62
How to Take your Health Seriously: Living in survival mode and not giving yourself the gift of self-care can cause unnecessary stress and anxiety. That’s why self-care is so important. How Healthy do you think you are? Use the quiz on page 49 to find out. Create a Self-Care schedule that you’ll actually follow through with, on page 83.
How to Set Yourself up for Success, with a Growth Mindset: You’ve got a long life ahead of you. Learn how to use what you’ve learned to be a more compassionate and loving person, now and in the days to come. Analyze your fears with the “Letting Go of Fears” exercise on page 141, and feel more confident after completing “Rocks my Confidence” – page 140

The Selfless Mind: Personality, Consciousness and Nirvana in Early Buddhism
This careful analysis of early Buddhist thought opens out a perspective in which no permanent Self is accepted, but a rich analysis of changing and potent mental processes is developed. It explores issues relating to the not-Self teaching: self-development, moral responsibility, the between-lives period, and the ‘undetermined questions’ on the world, on the ‘life principle’ and on the liberated one after death. It examines the ‘person’ as a flowing continuity centred on consciousness or discernment (vinnana) configured in changing minds-sets (cittas). The resting state of this is seen as ‘brightly shining’ – like the ‘Buddha nature’ of Mahayana thought – so as to represent the potential for Nirvana. Nirvana is then shown to be a state in which consciousness transcends all objects, and thus participates in a timeless, unconditioned realm.Read more

Summoned to Evelyn’s luxurious apartment, Monique listens in fascination as the actress tells her story. From making her way to Los Angeles in the 1950s to her decision to leave show business in the ’80s, and, of course, the seven husbands along the way, Evelyn unspools a tale of ruthless ambition, unexpected friendship, and a great forbidden love. Monique begins to feel a very real connection to the legendary star, but as Evelyn’s story near its conclusion, it becomes clear that her life intersects with Monique’s own in tragic and irreversible ways.
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is a mesmerizing journey through the splendour of old Hollywood into the harsh realities of the present day as two women struggle with what it means and what it costs to face the truth.

The Seven Year Slip: The new laugh-out-loud rom-com from the New York Times bestselling author of THE DEAD ROMANTICS
An overworked book publicist with a perfectly planned future hits a snag when she falls in love with her temporary roommate…only to discover he lives seven years in the past, in this witty and wise new novel from the bestselling author of The Dead Romantics.
Sometimes, the worst day of your life happens, and you have to figure out how to live after it.
Six months ago, Clementine West had the worst day of her life. So, she came up with a plan to keep her heart safe: stay busy, work hard, take no risks. And it’s been working.
That is until one day she finds a strange man standing in her kitchen. A man with kind eyes, a crooked smile, and a recipe for the perfect lemon meringue pie. The kind of man that, before everything, she could have fallen for . . .
He’s perfect but for one thing: he lives in the past. Seven years ago, to be exact.
This should be impossible, but Clementine used to love impossible things. And maybe, just maybe, she will again. After all, love is never a matter of time – but a matter of timing.
‘Charming and deliciously romantic, THE SEVEN YEAR SLIP serves up a speculative twist on the idea that we might meet the right person at the wrong time’ Catriona Silvey, author of Meet Me in Another Life

The Shell House Detectives (A Shell House Detectives Mystery Book 1)
“A cleverly plotted and thoroughly enjoyable book about dark deeds in beautiful places.”—Elly Griffiths
Welcome to the coastal paradise of Porthpella, where murder lurks among the dunes…
Late one night, a distraught young man knocks on the door of retired and recently widowed Ally Bright’s remote home on the Cornish coast. But before she can make sense of his confused words, he’s gone—not to be seen again until he’s found the next morning at the foot of the nearby cliffs.
In an instant, the peace of Ally’s beachcombing life is shattered. Feeling responsible for the young man’s fate, she wants to help find answers—as does ex-cop Jayden Weston, whom Ally meets at the scene. He shares her certainty that there’s more to the story than attempted suicide. When it emerges that the man is newly released ex-offender Lewis Pascoe, and that Helena, the wealthy new owner of his grandmother’s home, has subsequently disappeared, the tight-knit community of Porthpella is thrown into turmoil.
Driven by their need to know more, the duo decide to investigate the mystery together. Is there a connection between the Pascoe family’s tragic history and Helena’s disappearance? And if there is a killer stalking Porthpella, do Ally and Jayden have what it takes to catch them?

The Shrieking Skull and other Victorian Christmas Ghost Stories
Thirteen rare tales by the most prolific Victorian Christmas ghost story author, collected and republished for the first time!
Move over, Charles Dickens! The author of “A Christmas Carol” may be the most famous Victorian author of Christmas ghost stories, but the king of the genre was James Skipp Borlase (1839-1909), who published dozens of them in obscure British and Australian periodicals during a nearly fifty-year span. Now for the first time, thirteen of Borlase’s best tales have been unearthed from newspaper archives and compiled in a single volume for modern readers.
In “A Weird Wooing” (1898) an impecunious suitor braves a house haunted by the ghosts of plague victims in search of a legendary treasure. “The Steel-Bound Valise” (1875) tells of a horrid murder and a spectral vision that reveals the truth behind the awful deed. In “A Bride from the Dead” (1899), a man races against time on horseback to save his beloved from a forced marriage-but arrives too late to prevent an even more horrible and macabre fate. This volume showcases Borlase’s wide range, featuring macabre and bone-chilling stories alongside more lighthearted pieces, all of them just as entertaining to read on a winter’s night as they were more than a century ago.

The Siege of Loyalty House: A new history of the English Civil War
**A TIMES, GUARDIAN, TELEGRAPH, SPECTATOR, THE CRITIC, MAIL ON SUNDAY, ECONOMIST AND PROSPECT BOOK OF THE YEAR**
‘A gifted narrative historian, eloquent, graceful and witty; the stories she tells are the ones we all should know’ Hilary Mantel
It was a time of climate change and colonialism, puritans and populism, witch hunts and war . . .
This is the story of a home that became a warzone. Basing House in Hampshire saw one of the longest and bloodiest sieges of the English Civil War. Defended for over two years by artists and aristocrats, actors and apothecaries, women and children, it became a symbol of royalist defiance and a microcosm of the wider conflict.
Drawing on unpublished manuscripts and the voices of dozens of soldiers and civilians, award-winning historian Jessie Childs weaves a thrilling tale of war and peace, terror and faith, savagery and civilization.

‘Extraordinary, thrilling, immersive … at times almost Tolstoyan in its emotional intelligence and literary power’ Simon Schama

The Signs of a Savant: Language Against the Odds
Every once in a while nature gives us insight into the human condition by providing us with a unique case whose special properties illuminate the species as a whole. Christopher is such an example. Despite disabilities which mean that everyday tasks are burdensome chores, Christopher is a linguistic wonder who can read, write, speak, understand and translate more than twenty languages. On some tests he shows a severely low IQ, hinting at ineducability, yet his English language ability indicates an IQ in excess of 120 (a level more than sufficient to enter university). Christopher is a savant, someone with an island of startling talent in a sea of inability. This book documents his learning of British Sign Language, casting light on the modularity of cognition, the modality neutrality of the language faculty, the structure of memory, the grammar of signed language and the nature of the human mind.Read more

The Signs of the Hour: A Compendium of Authentic Hadiths
Eschatology is a topic that continuously grabs the attention of many Muslims due to significance in Islamic theology. Its stories and prophecies embody many supernatural elements that are bound to be witnessed by many, and this further amplifies the fascination of many with this genre of scripture in the Islamic tradition.
A major category of Islamic eschatology revolves around the signs of the Hour: the signs and events that manifest prior to the Day of Judgement, indicating its dire imminence. These signs, which were foretold the Prophet, serve as reminders to the Muslim community so that they may prepare themselves and be attentive to the Hour and Day of Judgement.
Despite this topic’s grave importance, many weak and unreliable traditions are carelessly circulated in many Muslim circles today. What makes the matter even more challenging is the fact that some public Muslim figures continue to disseminate such weak traditions, further facilitating the spread of inauthentic narratives. This book serves as an attempt to prove the Muslim community with an accessible and comprehensive collection of authentic hadiths on the signs of the Hour, and perhaps it can be the stepping stone for a more mature discourse on Islamic eschatology.

The Silent Deep: The Royal Navy Submarine Service Since 1945
‘The Ministry of Defence does not comment upon submarine operations’ is the standard response of officialdom to enquiries about the most secretive and mysterious of Britain’s armed forces, the Royal Navy Submarine Service. Written with unprecedented co-operation from the Service itself and privileged access to documents and personnel, The Silent Deep is the first authoritative history of the Submarine Service from the end of the Second World War to the present. It gives the most complete account yet published of the development of Britain’s submarine fleet, its capabilities, its weapons, its infrastructure, its operations and above all – from the testimony of many submariners and the first-hand witness of the authors – what life is like on board for the denizens of the silent deep.
Dramatic episodes are revealed for the first time: how HMS Warspite gathered intelligence against the Soviet Navy’s latest ballistic-missile-carrying submarine in the late 1960s; how HMS Sovereign made what is probably the longest-ever trail of a Soviet (or Russian) submarine in 1978; how HMS Trafalgar followed an exceptionally quiet Soviet ‘Victor III’, probably commanded by a Captain known as ‘the Prince of Darkness’, in 1986. It also includes the first full account of submarine activities during the Falklands War. But it was not all victories: confrontations with Soviet submarines led to collisions, and the extent of losses to UK and NATO submarine technology from Cold War spy scandals are also made more plain here than ever before.
In 1990 the Cold War ended – but not for the Submarine Service. Since June 1969, it has been the last line of national defence, with the awesome responsibility of carrying Britain’s nuclear deterrent. The story from Polaris to Trident – and now ‘Successor’ – is a central theme of the book. In the year that it is published, Russian submarines have once again been detected off the UK’s shores. As Britain comes to decide whether to renew its submarine-carried nuclear deterrent, The Silent Deep provides an essential historical perspective.
