Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde: with The Merry Men & Other Stories (Wordsworth Classics)
With an Introduction and Notes by Dr Tim Middleton, Head of English Studies, University of Ripon and York.
In seeking to discover his inner self, the brilliant Dr Jekyll discovers a monster. First published to critical acclaim in 1886, this mesmerising thriller is a terrifying study of the duality of man’s nature, and it is the book which established Stevenson’s reputation as a writer.
Also included in this volume is Stevenson’s 1887 collection of short stories, The Merry Men and Other Tales and Fables.
The Merry Men is a gripping Highland tale of shipwrecks and madness; Markheim, the sinister study of the mind of a murderer; Thrawn Janet, a spine-chilling tale of demonic possession; Olalla, a study of degeneration and incipient vampirism in the Spanish mountains; Will O’ the Mill, a thought-provoking fable about a mountain inn-keeper; and The Treasure of Franchard, a study of French bourgeois life.

The Fund: Ray Dalio, Bridgewater Associates and The Unraveling of a Wall Street Legend
‘The most explosive, mind-blowing business book I’ve ever read’ – Bradley Hope, New York Times bestselling author of Billion Dollar Whale
‘Jaw-dropping . . . well-told, well-structured and exquisitely reported’ – Financial Times book review
Discover the unauthorized, unvarnished story of famed Wall Street hedge-fund manager Ray Dalio.
When Ray Dalio, billionaire founder of Bridgewater Associates, the world’s largest hedge fund, announced in October 2022 that he was stepping down from the company he founded forty-seven years ago, the news made headlines around the world. Dalio achieved worldwide fame thanks to a mystique of success cultivated in frequent media appearances, celebrity hobnobbing, and his bestselling book, Principles. In The Fund, Rob Copeland draws on hundreds of interviews with those inside and around the firm to reveal what really goes on with Dalio and his cohorts behind closed doors.
Tracing more than fifty years of Dalio’s leadership, The Fund peels back the curtain to reveal a rarefied world of wealth and power, where former FBI director Jim Comey kisses Dalio’s ring, recent Pennsylvania Senate candidate David McCormick sells out, and countless Bridgewater acolytes describe what it’s like to work at this fascinating firm.
Dalio has stepped down from Bridgewater before; will the legacy of his Principles continue to chart the course of the firm? The Fund provides unique insight into the story of Dalio and Bridgewater, past, present and future.

Little Book of Chanel by Lagerfeld: The Story of the Iconic Fashion Designer: 15 (Little Book of Fashion)
The House of Chanel is synonymous with not one, but two, iconic designers. First there was Gabrielle, and then there was Karl.
Chanel is a house known for its signatures that not only changed the course of fashion history but still resonate today – the Little Black Dress, the tweed suit, costume jewellery, Chanel No5. These signatures were inspired by Gabrielle Chanel’s taste, life experience and travels – but it was Karl Lagerfeld who took these signatures and ingeniously adapted them for the twenty-first century woman. From his first days at the helm of Chanel in the 1980s, to his creative application of the Chanel logo to everything from biker boots to a space rocket, King Karl’s reign at Chanel is nothing if not legendary.
Little Book of Chanel by Lagerfeld covers his most exquisite pieces, breathtaking catwalk shows and constant reinvention that have maintained Chanel as the most illustrious couture house in the world. Written by the bestselling author of Little Book of Chanel, this beautifully illustrated book is the essential guide to Lagerfeld’s tenure at Chanel.

Zulu
Saul David’s Zulu: The Heroism and Tragedy of the Zulu War of 1879 is a fascinating look at the most controversial and brutal British imperial conflict of the nineteenth century.
The real story of the Anglo-Zulu war was one of deception, dishonour, incompetence and dereliction of duty by Lord Chelmsford who invaded Zululand without the knowledge of the British Government. But it did not go to plan and there were many political repercussions. Using new material from archives in Britain and South Africa, Saul David blows the lid on this most sordid of imperial wars and comes to a number of startling new conclusions.
‘Saul David’s brilliant and magisterial account must now be regarded as the definitive history of the Zulu War’ Frank McLynn, Literary Review
‘This meticulously detailed book…give[s] a fully rounded and judicious account of this dismal conflict Guardian
‘Fascinating, thrilling, convincing… reads like a novel’ Economist
Saul David is Professor of War Studies at the University of Buckingham and the author of several critically acclaimed history books, including The Indian Mutiny: 1857 (shortlisted for the Westminster Medal for Military Literature), Zulu: The Heroism and Tragedy of the Zulu War of 1879 (a Waterstone’s Military History Book of the Year) and, most recently, Victoria’s Wars: The Rise of Empire.

交陪美學論: 當代藝術面向近未來神祇 (Traditional Chinese Edition)
● 龔卓軍「近未來的交陪：台南蕭壠國際當代藝術節」相關論述首次有系統集結成書。
● 臺灣獨特之「交陪美學論」第一本專書
● 評論爬梳國內外相關重要文獻、學術研究、及當代重要展覽、影像、表演、藝術季等作品
「交陪 Kau-Puê」——含有交易、買取之意。（廈門話）
交際應酬、互盡友誼、彼此密切往來。（臺詞辭典）
街境守望、社區聯防、友境出陣、誼廟互挺。（《臺南府城聯境組織研究》）
五百年前，西方社會幾乎所有人都擁有對神或魔性力量的信仰，至今這種信仰只是眾多選項之一。五百年後，經過西方和日本的殖民、政權交替，臺灣民間信仰與廟宇文化中的交陪組織，至今仍維持活力不墜，影響著庶民社會的文化藝術表現語彙。
本書作者龔卓軍任教於臺南藝術大學藝術創作理論研究所，為近年臺灣最具能量、創意和影響力的藝術學者及策展人之一。 二〇一七年在臺南蕭壠文化園區策展之「近未來的交陪：蕭壠國際當代藝術節」，以紮實的田野調查先行，將臺灣民俗與宗教文化以藝術理論、美學觀點梳理廓清，並邀集跨域藝術家進行創作上的精彩交陪對作，令此展備受好評迴響，引起廣泛討論，並獲第十六屆台新藝術獎年度大獎肯定。此後作者延續策展及書寫藝術評論不輟，逐步建構出臺灣獨有的「交陪美學」概念。
本書為作者繼二〇〇七年《身體部署》的當代哲學理論之後，首度集結系列評論，直陳其十年策展實踐內蘊的藝術理論，讓地方文化面向世界文化，藉廟會藝術提煉當代藝術，從民間廟宇之間的動態「交陪境」，打造出一條屬於臺灣文化蘊育的獨特美學思路。
書中分成「理論」、「影像」、「展演」、「跨域」四大部分，以系列性的策展研究書寫，構築爬梳「交陪美學」的深層內涵，試圖探討當代藝術和民間藝術之間的交互滲透和內在張力，勾勒出藝術話語新路徑。
