  • Executioner: The Chronicles of a Victorian Hangman

    08
    James Berry, a dour and somewhat pious ex-policeman who hailed from Yorkshire, was Britain’s hangman from 1884 to 1892 and was responsible for carrying out 200 executions. As an amateur criminologist he built his own black museum and kept scrapbooks relating to his activities. He was also something of a showman, and not averse to publicity, whose press coverage caused the government acute embarrassment. Capable of cold, even callous detachment, Berry’s sensitivity meant that he was often too upset before and after one of his 200 executions to be able to speak.There were also a few horrific incidents on the gallows and his job evidently had its effect on him as, in retirement, Berry became so depressed that he took steps to commit suicide. In this biography, Stewart Evans here takes the reader on a fascinating journey into the world of Victorian crime and punishment. Evans is a leading crime historian, widely considered one of the Victorian era. His previous books include Jack the Ripper, Letters From Hell and Jack the Ripper and the Whitechapel Murders. He lives in Cambridgeshire.

  • Exit Stage Left: The curious afterlife of pop stars

    08

    **A SUNDAY TIMES, GUARDIAN & TELEGRAPH MUSIC BOOK OF THE YEAR 2022**

    **INDEPENDENT BOOK OF THE MONTH**

    **GUARDIAN BOOK OF THE DAY**

    **FINANCIAL TIMES ‘BEST SUMMER BOOKS 2022’ PICK**

    ‘Incredibly moving.’ – Guardian

    ‘Entertaining.’ – Telegraph

    ‘Most books about pop stars focus on the way we turn average human beings into demi-gods. In writing a book about how they have to turn back into humans Nick Duerden has done both us and them a service.’ – David Hepworth

    ‘Funny, poignant and often inspirational.’ – Mat Osman

    The desire for adulation is a light that never goes out. We live in a culture obsessed by the notion of fame – the heedless pursuit of it; the almost obligatory subsequent fallout. But what’s it like to actually achieve it, and what happens when fame abruptly passes, and shifts, as it does, onto someone else?

    This is the point at which pop stars are at their most heroic, because they don’t give up. They keep on striving, keep making music, and refuse simply to ebb away. Some sustain themselves on the nostalgia circuit, others continue to beaver away in the studio, no longer Abbey Road, perhaps, so much as the garden shed. But all of them, in their own individual ways, still dare to dream.

    Exit Stage Left features tales of drug addiction, bankruptcy, depression and divorce, but also of optimism, a genuine love of the craft, humility and hope. This is a candid, laugh-out-loud and occasionally shocking look at what happens when the brightest stars fall back down to earth.

    ‘Exit Stage Left is the book I’ve long wanted to read about the PTSD-like after-effects of pop stardom – and Nick Duerden is the perfect writer for the job. The pop star’s bittersweet lot is represented with flair and empathy.’ – Pete Paphides, author of Broken Greek

    ‘Exit Stage Left is a funny and poignant book, drawing on Duerden’s considerable experience as a journalist and interviewer . . . he understands what motivates this strange bunch of people.’ – Andy Miller, Spectator

    ‘Fame is the brightest candle, but in this brilliant collection of interviews, Nick Duerden answers the question: what does a candle do after it’s burned out?’ – David Quantick

    ‘Duerden finds fascinating layers of humanity, pathos, humour and wisdom in equal measure. A brilliant book, for artists and fans alike.’ – Frank Turner

    Featuring brand new interviews with the likes of: Bob Geldof, Shaun Ryder, Robbie Williams, Roisin Murphy, Stewart Copeland, Billy Bragg, Wendy James, Alex Kapranos, Joan Armatrading, Leo Sayer, Gary Lightbody, Lisa Maffia, Tim Booth, Bill Drummond, Rufus Wainwright, David Gray, and Justin Hawkins.

  • Expected Goals: The story of how data conquered football and changed the game forever

    07

    Shortlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award 2022

    Football has always measured success by what you win, but only in the last twenty years have clubs started to think about how you win. Data has now suffused almost every aspect of how football is played, coached, scouted and consumed. But it’s not the algorithms or new metrics that have made this change, it’s the people behind them.

    This is the story of modern football’s great data revolution and the group of curious, entrepreneurial personalities who zealously believed in its potential to transform the game. Central to this cast is Chris Anderson, an academic with no experience in football, who saw data as an opportunity to fundamentally change a sport that did not think it could be changed. His aim: to infiltrate the strange, insular world of professional football by establishing a club whose entire DNA could be built around data.

    Expected Goals charts his remarkable journey into the heart of the modern game and reveals how clubs across the world, from Liverpool to Leipzig and Brentford to Bayern Munich, began to see how data could help them unearth new players, define radical tactics and plot their path to glory.

  • Experiencing Cinema: Participatory Film Cultures, Immersive Media and the Experience Economy

    Film is often conceived as a medium that is watched rather than experienced. Existing studies of film audiences, and of media reception more broadly, have revealed the complexity of viewing practices and cultures surrounding cinema-going and its exhibition spaces. Experiencing Cinema offers the first in-depth study of participant engagement with a range of experiential media forms derived from cinema culture. From sing-a-long screenings to theatrical extravaganzas, a broad spectrum of alternative film-going practices and immersive spaces are explored and analysed in this original audience study.

    Moving from intimate community gatherings to blockbuster urban venues, from isolated farmhouses to Olympic stadia, Experiencing Cinema considers the lure and value of these popular events. Often attracting a diverse, intergenerational range of participants, from early-adopter urban hipsters to DIY rural communities, the growing demand for participatory cinema within the contemporary marketplace is analysed alongside broader debates circulating around the move away from traditional tiered seating and increased audience mobility and the de-centring of the film text.

  • Exploring LGBT Spaces and Communities: Contrasting Identities, Belongings and Wellbeing (Routledge Advances in Critical Diversities Book 5)

    01

    The phrase ‘LGBT community’ is often used by policy-makers, service providers, and lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans (LGBT) people themselves, but what does it mean? What understandings and experiences does that term suggest, and ignore? Based on a UK-wide study funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, this book explores these questions from the perspectives of over 600 research participants.

    Examining ideas about community ‘ownership’; ‘difference’ and diversity; relational practices within and beyond physical spaces; imagined communities and belongings; the importance of ‘ritual’ spaces and symbols, and consequences for wellbeing, the book foregrounds the lived experience of LGBT people to offer a broad analysis of commonalities and divergences in relation to LGBT identities.

    Drawing on an interdisciplinary perspective grounded in international social science research, the book will appeal to students and scholars with interests in sexual and/or gender identities in the fields of community studies, cultural studies, gender studies, geography, leisure studies, politics, psychology, sexuality studies, social policy, social work, socio-legal studies, and sociology. The book also offers implications for practice, suitable for policy-maker, practitioner, and activist audiences, as well as those with a more personal interest.

  • Exploring The Efficacy Of Vitamin B1 Therapy In Parkinson’s Disease Management (Duncan’s Health Guide)

    “Exploring the Efficacy of Vitamin B1 Therapy in Parkinson’s Disease Management”

    In the world of neurodegenerative disorders, Parkinson’s disease (PD) stands as a formidable challenge, affecting millions of lives worldwide. “Exploring the Efficacy of Vitamin B1 Therapy in Parkinson’s Disease Management” delves into the cutting-edge research and promising insights surrounding a novel approach to PD management—Vitamin B1 therapy.

    Parkinson’s disease presents a complex interplay of factors, from the gradual loss of dopaminergic neurons to the intricate mechanisms that underlie its motor and non-motor symptoms. Amidst this complexity emerges Vitamin B1, also known as thiamine, as a potential game-changer. This comprehensive exploration takes readers on a journey through the theoretical foundations of Vitamin B1 therapy, weaving together its multifaceted roles in cellular function and neuroprotection.

    Starting with a deep dive into the intricate web of neurobiology, the book examines how Vitamin B1’s antioxidant properties combat oxidative stress—an underlying culprit in PD. It reveals thiamine’s significant contribution to energy metabolism, illuminating how this essential nutrient fuels the neurons’ intricate machinery. Beyond the surface, the book uncovers thiamine’s impact on neurotransmission, offering insight into how it may modulate dopamine levels, the very neurotransmitter at the heart of PD.

    Throughout the pages, the book reveals the compelling findings of in vitro studies, animal models, and clinical trials. It explores the potential of Vitamin B1 therapy to shield neurons from damage, enhance mitochondrial health, and alleviate levodopa-induced dyskinesias. With meticulous attention to detail, the book also investigates thiamine’s impact on cognitive function, mood regulation, and non-motor symptoms—a realm that deeply affects the quality of life for PD patients.

    The journey of “Exploring the Efficacy of Vitamin B1 Therapy in Parkinson’s Disease Management” extends beyond laboratory settings. It delves into the potential mechanisms of action that underpin thiamine’s effects. It dives into the challenges of dosage, administration, and the variability of patient responses. Through meticulous analysis, the book lays the groundwork for larger-scale clinical trials, paving the way for evidence-based therapeutic interventions.

    Written by experts at the forefront of PD research, this book is a beacon for medical professionals, researchers, and those directly impacted by Parkinson’s disease. It bridges the gap between scientific discoveries and real-world applications, offering a glimpse into a potential paradigm shift in Parkinson’s disease management. As the medical community continues to explore innovative avenues, “Exploring the Efficacy of Vitamin B1 Therapy in Parkinson’s Disease Management” stands as an essential guide, promising a future where Vitamin B1 may hold the key to unlocking new horizons in the fight against Parkinson’s disease.

                  2. Extreme Medicine: How Exploration Transformed Medicine in the Twentieth Century

                    03
                    Little more than one hundred years ago, maps of the world still boasted white space: places where no human had ever trod. Within a few short decades the most hostile of the world’s environments had all been conquered. Likewise, in the twentieth century, medicine transformed human life. Doctors took what was routinely fatal and made it survivable. As modernity brought us ever more into different kinds of extremis, doctors pushed the bounds of medical advances and human endurance. Extreme exploration challenged the body in ways that only the vanguard of science could answer. Doctors, scientists, and explorers all share a defining trait: they push on in the face of grim odds. Because of their extreme exploration we not only understand our physiology better; we have also made enormous strides in the science of healing.

                    Drawing on his own experience as an anesthesiologist, intensive care expert, and NASA adviser, Dr. Kevin Fong examines how cuttingedge medicine pushes the envelope of human survival by studying the human body’s response when tested by physical extremes. Extreme Medicine explores different limits of endurance and the lens each offers on one of the systems of the body. The challenges of Arctic exploration created opportunities for breakthroughs in open heart surgery; battlefield doctors pioneered techniques for skin grafts, heart surgery, and trauma care; underwater and outer space exploration have revolutionized our understanding of breathing, gravity, and much more. Avant-garde medicine is fundamentally changing our ideas about the nature of life and death.

                    Through astonishing accounts of extraordinary events and pioneering medicine, Fong illustrates the sheer audacity of medical practice at extreme limits, where human life is balanced on a knife’s edge. Extreme Medicine is a gripping debut about the science of healing, but also about exploration in its broadest sense–and about how, by probing the very limits of our biology, we may ultimately return with a better appreciation of how our bodies work, of what life is, and what it means to be human.

                    08

                    OUR MOST NOTORIOUS CRIMINALS HAVE HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT.
                    UNTIL NOW…

                    ‘Emily’ is a devoted single mother.
                    ‘Jack’ starts a new job in a new town.
                    ‘Russell’ may be falling in love.

                    They all share the same secret:
                    none of them are who they say they are.

                    They are among only nine criminals in the UK who have been granted lifelong anonymity, for their own safety, because of their terrible crimes.

                    But what if someone exposed their true identities to the families of their victims, who are desperate for revenge?

                    Probation officer Olivia Campbell is caught in the crossfire of this unprecedented crisis – and as the hunt for the mole behind it all intensifies, so too does the search for the vigilante killers let loose by the leaks…

                    Everyone is a suspect. Anyone could be a killer.
                    Who deserves justice? And who gets to decide?

                    ‘Awe-inspiring and fascinating’ Funmi Fetto
                    ‘A treat to read’ Kassia St Clair

                    From the distant past to the present day, humans have been drawn to lining their eyes. The aesthetic trademark of figures ranging from Nefertiti to Amy Winehouse, eyeliner is one of our most enduring cosmetic tools; ancient royals and Gen Z beauty influencers alike would attest to its uniquely transformative power. It is undeniably fun – yet it is also far from frivolous.

                    Seen through Zahra Hankir’s (kohl-lined) eyes, this ubiquitous but seldom-examined product becomes a portal to history, proof both of the stunning variety among cultures across time and space and of our shared humanity. Through intimate reporting and conversations – with nomads in Chad, geishas in Japan, dancers in India, drag queens in New York, and more – Eyeliner embraces the rich history and significance of its namesake, especially among communities of colour. What emerges is a delightful, surprising, and unexpectedly moving journey through streets, stages, and bedrooms around the world, and a thought-provoking reclamation of a key piece of our collective history.

                  7. EYFS: Language of Learning – a handbook to provoke, provide and evaluate language development

                    06

                    Early language deficits affect too many pupils on entry to nursery, reception and school settings, negatively impacting not only children’s engagement with curriculum content, but also their self-regulation and mental health. Drawing on Joan Tough’s research and inspiration, Alex Bedford has reignited and reimagined her systematic language development framework, so that every child in an early years setting has the opportunity to build a love of language that radiates understanding, excellence, ambition and clarity.

                    Co-authored by Julie Sherrington, EYFS: Language of Learning explains the vital influence that physical development has on vocabulary development. The book offers practical guidance on what language development is, what to look for and how to provide support. Important cognitive and neuroscience research is clearly explained to help school settings embed the best of what we know about how children learn.

                    EYFS: Language of Learning gives teachers and practitioners a holistic, accessible and powerful toolkit. Alex and Julie’s brilliant worked examples showcase how the language development framework can offer precision and progression within the learning conversation. The book directly complements the ShREC approach and provides clear guidance on how to develop conversations using evidence-informed frameworks.

                  8. F**ked My Way Up to the Top: The Complete Biography of Lana Del Rey Using Her Own Words

                    02

                    “If you are born an artist, you have no choice but to fight to stay an artist.” ― Lana Del Rey

                    With her latest album, Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd, Lana Del Rey has again proven herself as one of the most crucial and original female musicians of the 21st century. So let this celebrity biography reveal the full story of Elizabeth Woolridge Grant, largely told in Lana’s own words using hundreds of interviews and public statements.

                    We connect the dots between Del Rey’s humble Catholic school beginnings, her teenage troubles with alcoholism, and her earliest unknown recordings as May Jailer/Lizzy Grant. We explore how the ruthless streets of New York City and the noir of Los Angeles struck a chord of nostalgic romance in Lana’s creative mind, seeking retro Hollywood glamour at whatever cost, transforming into the multi-platinum “gangster Nancy Sinatra” superstar we love today. And we illustrate how the accusations of toxic femininity and a fabricated past could never compromise her vision; instead, the opposition provided even stronger material for her unique artistic dedication, selling millions of records across the globe.

                    More importantly, this book delves deep into her music, where Lana Del Rey has always felt the most comfortable sharing personal details. We document her hundreds of unreleased songs, her biggest hits (such as the viral sensation Video Games), her soundtrack contributions (The Great Gatsby, Maleficent, Big Eyes), and her collaboration work with The Weeknd, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Ariana Grande, and Stevie Nicks. Furthermore, we passionately analyse each of her eight studio albums, including the critically acclaimed Born to Die, Ultraviolence, Honeymoon, and Norman F**king Rockwell!. In doing so, we present a commercially successful career that hides within the darker underbelly of the pop world, just like her cult following prefers it.

                    For dedicated fans only, here is everything there is to know about the real Lana Del Rey.
