• How to Sign with Babies with Terry the Monkey: British Sign Language for children

    05
    Learn how to sign with your baby with the latest title in the popular Terry the Monkey series of sign language books for children. Signs in this book include everything your baby will need in order to communicate their needs and share their observations of the world around them. As Joe Jacobs explains, ‘Most babies say their first words at around 12 months’ old, but babies are able to sign from as young as 7 months’ old. The muscles required for speech, in the throat and larynx, take longer to develop than the hand and arm muscles needed to sign. My own children began signing at around 8 months’ old. Signing can significantly reduce frustration and gives you an insight into your baby’s thoughts months before they can speak.’This book contains all the signs you will need to teach your baby how to communicate their needs and observations, including milk, mummy, daddy, more, hug, I love you, park, swings, toys, funny, play, brother, sister, wash hands, please, sleep, bed, bath, coat, hat and many more. The Terry the Monkey books have featured in Little London magazine and Familes, the magazine of the National Deaf Children’s Society, as well as limpingchicken.com, the world’s most popular deaf blog. Joe’s work has been praised by former children’s laureate Julia Donaldson, BBC’s Steve Backshall and Oscar winner and deafness awareness campaigner Rachel Shenton. This book contains tips on signing and a list of the benefits of signing with babies. A great gift for any new parent.

  • Never Meant to Stay: A Novel

    05

    A bighearted romantic comedy about family and finding the perfect match set against the exuberant backdrop of contemporary Delhi.

    Home has always been a temporary arrangement for Samara Mansingh, a wayfaring wedding photographer and the daughter of a diplomat. When her father is uprooted once again, Samara needs a place to stay in Delhi. Next stop: the Khanna family. Samara’s memories of the Khannas are vague at best, but she doesn’t remember their home feeling so much like a war zone. And the last thing their surly eldest son, Sharav, wants is a houseguest eavesdropping on the chaos.

    Sharav has a melodramatic sister pushing back on an arranged marriage, a withdrawn lead-singer brother who won’t sing, and a widowed mother hiding her grief in the garden. Sweeping into the household like a tornado, irrepressible Samara is a practically perfect distraction. She has a mind to help a girl find true love, push a young man to find his voice, and bring a lonely and loving widow out of mourning. Maybe Samara can even get on Sharav’s ruggedly handsome good side.

    The only sure thing is that the Khanna family will never be the same again. Neither will Samara, who may finally find what she’s been missing her entire life: a home.

  • My Dog Eats Plant Pots: Adoption breakdown and its impact on one absolutely normal family

    05
    The dream of a family, the inability to create one, after the IVF has failed, led to adoption for this perfectly normal pair. Their lives and that of their faithful canine companion were turned upside down and inside out, when they got astride the rollercoaster of the adoption process. Successfully leaping all the hurdles, being assessed as suitable adopters, they found two children they thought they could care for, and protect, and finally become Mummy and Daddy. The story of two little people, two big people and one slightly eccentric dog. But the fairy tale became a nightmare. When proud people who just didn’t do failure, had to admit defeat, when they finally brought themselves to ask for the help that was promised, and it was not there. How the system is broken, how the blame game begins and then never stops. How those who should be at the centre are rarely put there. A very personal and frank account of adoption failure, disruption, breakdown. It is sad, it is horrid, it hurts. It is happening now, more often than you think, and it needs to be talked about. An important read for potential or existing adopters, or anyone involved with families during or after the adoption process, this challenging account of what can go wrong raises questions over the process of adoption, and more importantly adoption support.

  • Victorian Giants: The Birth of Art Photography

    05
    Oscar Rejlander (1813–75), Julia Margaret Cameron (1815–79), Lewis Carroll (1832–98) and Clementina Hawarden (1822–65) embody the very best of photography from the Victorian era. They experimented with new approaches to picture making and shaped attitudes towards photography that have informed artistic practice ever since. Discover the images that made people think about the photograph as a work of art in this beautiful book.

    The idea of ‘art photography’ is nearly as old as photography itself, but it wasn’t until the 1850s that photographers began to claim fine-­‐art status for their work. Debates about photography and its role raged internationally, but it was in England, through the work of Oscar Rejlander, Julia Margaret Cameron, Lewis Carroll and Clementina Hawarden in particular, that the new art found its fullest expression.

    These four artists – a Swedish émigré with a mysterious past, a middle-­‐aged Ceylonese expatriate, an Oxford academic and writer of fantasy literature, and a Scottish countess – formed the most unlikely of schools. Both Carroll and Cameron studied under Rejlander briefly, and maintained a lasting association based around intersecting approaches to portraiture and narrative. Influenced by historical painting and working in close association with the Pre-­‐ Raphaelite brotherhood, they formed a bridge between the art of the past and the art of the future, standing as true giants in Victorian photography.

    Separately, Cameron, Carroll, Hawarden and Rejlander produced some of the most spectacular images in history. Divided into three main sections, this book brings together many of these works for the first time, drawing heavily from the National Portrait Gallery Collection. The selection will be enriched with key works from other collections from around the globe. Of special interest is an exploration of historical and contemporary painters and their role in the young fine-­‐art-­‐photography movement.

  • The Psychological Safety Playbook: Lead More Powerfully by Being More Human

    05
    *Nonfiction Book Award Silver Medal*

    *2023 NYC Big Book Award Distinguished Favorite*

    The how-to guide for transformative leadership

    Every employee, at every level, wants to feel seen, heard, and respected. If we don’t feel safe, we can’t be our best selves or do our most creative work. This is why leaders must ensure psychological safety for everyone in their team. Whether you’re a manager, CEO, or entrepreneur, The Psychological Safety Playbook is the guide you need to lead your team to the highest levels of performance and innovation.

    The Psychological Safety Playbook invites you to explore twenty-five specific actions that will create more psychological safety in your workplace. These are all moves that every leader can adopt and practice. Each move features a description of why to try it, instructions on how to do it, and a nutshell summary. You can start anywhere in the playbook—all the plays and moves are self-contained!

    Written by Karolin Helbig, a highly respected executive mindset coach with a doctorate in human genetics and extensive consulting experience, and Minette Norman, a sought-after leadership consultant with thirty years of experience in the tech sector, The Psychological Safety Playbook is the essential guide for leaders who are committed to fostering psychological safety in their teams.

    In their combined years of business and applied practice, the authors have continually observed how creating a high-performing, innovative workforce starts with building a foundation of respect and shared humanity. When we hold back our true thoughts because we’re afraid of the consequences, everyone misses out. By contrast, when we can ask a naïve question, propose a wild idea, or share our honest emotions—that’s when psychological safety fuels team performance.

  • Safety Differently: Human Factors for a New Era, Second Edition

    05

    The second edition of a bestseller, Safety Differently: Human Factors for a New Era is a complete update of Ten Questions About Human Error: A New View of Human Factors and System Safety. Today, the unrelenting pace of technology change and growth of complexity calls for a different kind of safety thinking. Automation and new technologies have resulted in new roles, decisions, and vulnerabilities whilst practitioners are also faced with new levels of complexity, adaptation, and constraints. It is becoming increasingly apparent that conventional approaches to safety and human factors are not equipped to cope with these challenges and that a new era in safety is necessary.

    In addition to new material covering changes in the field during the past decade, the book takes a new approach to discussing safety. The previous edition looked critically at the answers human factors would typically provide and compared/contrasted them with current research and insights at that time. The edition explains how to turn safety from a bureaucratic accountability back into an ethical responsibility for those who do our dangerous work, and how to embrace the human factor not as a problem to control, but as a solution to harness.

    See What’s in the New Edition:

      • New approach reflects changes in the field
      • Updated coverage of system safety and technology changes
      • Latest human factors/ergonomics research applicable to safety

      Organizations, companies, and industries are faced with new demands and pressures resulting from the dynamics and nature of the modern marketplace and from the development and introduction of new technologies. This new era calls for a different kind of safety thinking, a thinking that sees people as the source of diversity, insight, creativity, and wisdom about safety, not as the source of risk that undermines an otherwise safe system. It calls for a kind of thinking that is quicker to trust people and mistrust bureaucracy, and that is more committed to actually preventing harm than to looking good. This book takes a forward-looking and assertively progressive view that prepares you to resolve current safety issues in any field.

    • The Real Deal: Field Notes from the Life of a Working Photographer

      05
      When Joe McNally moved to New York City in 1976, his first job was at the Daily News as a copyboy, the wretched dog of the newsroom. He was earning the lowest pay grade possible and living in a cheap hotel in Manhattan. Life was not glamorous. But with a fierce drive, an eye for a picture, and a willingness to take (almost) any assignment that came his way, Joe stepped out onto the always precarious tightrope of the freelance photographer and never looked back. Fast forward 40 years, and his work has included assignments and stories for National Geographic, Time, LIFE, Sports Illustrated, and more. He has travelled for assignments to nearly 70 countries and received dozens of awards for his photography. In The Real Deal, Joe tells us how it all started, and candidly shares stories, lessons, and insights he has collected along the way. This is not a dedicated how-to book about where to put the light, though there is certainly instructional information to be gleaned here. This is also not a navel-gazing look back at the good old days, because those never really existed anyway. Instead, The Real Deal is simply a collection of candid field notes some short, some quite long gathered over time that, together, become an intimate look behind the scenes at a photographer who has pretty much seen and done it all. Though the photography industry bears little resemblance to the industry just 10 years ago (much less 40 years ago), what it really takes to become a successful photographer the character traits, the fundamental lessons, the ability to adapt, and then adapt again remains the same. Joe writes about everything from the crucial ability to know how to use (and make!) window light to the importance of creating long-term relationships built on trust; from lessons learned after a day in the field to the need to follow your imagination wherever it takes you; from the random and lucky moments that propel one s career to the wonders and pitfalls of today s camera technology. For every mention of f-stops and shutter speeds, there is equal discussion about the importance of access, the occasional moment of hubris, and the idea of becoming iconic. Before Joe was a celebrated and award-winning photographer, before he was a well-respected educator and author of multiple bestselling books, he was just Joe, hustling every day, from one assignment to the next, piecing together a portfolio, a skill set, a reputation, a career. He imagined a life and then took pictures of it. Here are a few frames.

      05
      Laos, perhaps the least known country in mainland Southeast Asia, stands at the region’s crossroads. This small ‘land in between’ is surrounded by China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand and Burma-countries that, in pre-modern times, provided Lao kings with a field for territorial expansion. But more often, Laos has been a bridge between these powerful neighbours, and an arena in which they and their allies have interfered.

      Here, Grant Evans brings Lao history vividly into focus. From ancient times when the dynastic states of the region waxed and waned, to the 20th century and the turmoil of independence from France and the Vietnam War and its aftermath, Evans traces the compelling story of the emergence of Laos as a modern nation.

      A Short History of Laos is an ideal introduction to Laos for travellers, businesspeople and students. For those familiar with Lao history, Evans investigates key events in new ways and presents serious challenges to conventional views about Laos’ intriguing history. country’s past.

      05
      On Thursday 29th August 1895, 21 of the leading rugby union clubs of Lancashire and Yorkshire met at the George Hotel in Huddersfield to discuss their long running disagreement with the rugby football union. Little did they know what was to follow. The clubs decided that they had suffered enough of the control of the southern gentry and formed their own northern rugby football union and split from the rugby football union. It was the beginning of a dispute that would continue for almost a hundred years. The new northern union thrived, and many clubs soon joined, however, with little coherent strategy or assistance from the union, many folded within a few years. The stronger clubs and the union itself survived those initial chaotic times and continued to create the structure and competitions that have evolved to create the game of rugby league football we know today. This new book illustrates the birth of the northern union in 1895 to the 1922 name change to the rugby league with hundreds of rare images of the early teams and individuals who had the courage to take that enormous leap in the dark.

    • The Mythology of Global Warming: Climate Change Fiction VS. Scientific Facts

      05

      WANT ACCESS TO SOLID SCIENTIFIC FACTS REFUTING THE INCESSANT MEDIA HYPE SURROUNDING CLIMATE CHANGE? THEN THE MYTHOLOGY OF GLOBAL WARMING IS FOR YOU!

      The Mythology of Global Warming is intended to provide the general public with a broad spectrum of scientific and factual information on the subject of Climate Change. This book debunks the incessant, emotional, and largely unsubstantiated claims made by the progressive media and climate scientists that industrial societies such as the United States are destroying our planet due to the use of fossil fuels. What causes global warming? What is a greenhouse gas? What impact do carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels actually have on the Earth’s climate relative to naturally occurring phenomena? Is all ice on Earth really melting, and are sea levels rising at a catastrophic rate? Are all forms of extreme weather, including hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, and droughts increasing dramatically? Are polar bears and other life forms being pushed to the brink of extinction? Will all of this mayhem cease if fossil fuels are replaced by ‘green’ renewable energy sources? Answers to these questions clearly show that hard facts do not support any of the above dire predictions.

      The science of global warming is indeed ‘settled’; Global Warming is a myth.

      “…Global warming proponents can’t prove that man is destroying the planet due to global warming, but Dr. Bunker can prove that we are not. He packs a lot of punch in this small package. Read it, and arm yourself for the great debate.”-—Phil Valentine, nationally syndicated talk show host of the Phil Valentine Show on Westwood One

      “In the past 20 years I have reviewed two dozen books dealing with Anthropomorphic Global Warming. There has not been nor ever will be a more comprehensive and understandable book on this subject which is to critical to the entire world’s population.”—Jay Lehr, Ph.D. Science Director, The Heartland Institute

      “This is a scholarly work written by a true scientist, yet in a way that makes the topic still accessible to the average person interested in understanding both the science and also the politics of global warming. Highly recommended.”—Dr. Jennifer Marohasy, Senior Fellow, Australia’s Institute of Public Affairs, co-author of “Climate Change: The Facts, 2014”

      “Unlike so many others, Dr. Bunker’s book is so much more than a supposition wrapped up in a pretty bow of meaningless numbers. If you’ve been waiting for a book that gives actual facts in an easily checked form, you’ve found it.”—G. Dedrick Robinson Ph.D., co-author of Global Warming: Alarmists, Skeptics & Deniers.

      “A timely and well researched book not only for the thoughtful engaged reader, but also for the general public. The book is up-to-date and deals honestly with continuing controversies and uncertainties.”—Dr. Sonja A. Boehmer-Christiansen, Department of Geography, Hull University, Former Editor, Energy & Environment.

    • The Chill: ‘Wow!’ Stephen King

      05

      ‘This is one terrific horror/suspense/disaster novel. Characters you root for and a story that grips from the first page’ STEPHEN KING

      ‘The Chill is an eerie dive into the murky depths of the supernatural. A story that has you looking back over your shoulder on every page’ MICHAEL CONNELLY

      In this terrifying thriller, a supernatural force set in motion a century ago threatens to devastate New York City.

      In upstate New York a drowned village lies beneath the dark, still waters of the Chilewaukee reservoir. Sacrificed a century ago to bring water to the millions living downstate, the town’s destruction was for the greater good . . . at least that’s what the politicians said.

      Years later an inspector overseeing the dangerously neglected dam witnesses something inexplicable.

      It seems more than the village was left behind in the waters of the Chill; some never left at all. Now a dark prophecy comes to fruition. Those who remember must ask themselves: who will be next? For sacrifices must be made.

      As the dark water begins inexorably to rise, the demand for a fresh sacrifice emerges from the deep . . .

    • Mountains Of The Mind: A History Of A Fascination

      05

      ‘The most exhilarating history of mountaineering … a riveting read’ Jeremy Paxman

      ‘A truly inspiring read’ Sir Ranulph Fiennes

      ‘It simply fizzes with insights into the sublime madness of mountaineering’ Roger Deakin

      Once we thought monsters lived there. In the Enlightenment we scaled them to commune with the sublime. Soon, we were racing to conquer their summits in the name of national pride.

      In this ground-breaking, classic work, Robert Macfarlane takes us up into the mountains: to experience their shattering beauty, the fear and risk of adventure, and to explore the strange impulses that have for centuries lead us to the world’s highest places.

    • Discovering Damon (Behind the Camera Book 3)

      05
      I know most would probably describe me as a little uptight, unwilling to change, set in my ways…
      But the truth is, I just like my life the way it is—simple and predictable. I have everything I need—good friends, family close by, and my automotive business that I’ve built from the ground up.
      I’m proud of the life I’ve made in this quiet small town. Nothing needs to change.
      At least, that’s what I believed up until the day Damon Deveraux, a lively and bold little whirlwind of a man in lip gloss and short shorts, saunters into my life and changes everything.
      He captivates me with his bubbly charm and adorable clumsiness, and suddenly we’re fast friends, spending all our time together.
      But I don’t know what’s happening to me. I’m just so confused.
      Because I’ve never fixated on another man’s pouty lips before.
      I’ve never obsessed over the curve of another man’s body.
      I’ve never desired the feel of another man curled up against me.
      And when I discover Damon’s camboy site and—accidentally on purpose—subscribe to his live show, all bets are off.
      Because for the first time, I’m realizing that maybe the sweet, sassy boy next door is everything I never knew I needed.

    • Wrapped with a Beau

      05
      In its heyday, Piney Peaks and its beloved Christmas house were made famous by Sleighbells Under Starlight, a romantic holiday movie. Fifty years later, the small town is ready for a new love story.

      Elisha Rowe has her heart set on one thing and one thing only: putting her hometown back on the map. So, when she gets the chance to secure the long-hoped-for sequel to Sleighbells Under Starlight, she’s willing to do whatever it takes to make sure everything goes smoothly. Unfortunately, that includes claiming to have already gotten permission to film at the town’s historic Christmas House-permission she was very much denied by the mysterious new owner.

      City boy Ves Hollins is only back in Piney Peaks long enough to sell the house he inherited from his great-aunt. The holidays have always been tough for Ves, and it’s not any easier when he’s distracted by memories of a Christmas long, long ago, and the irresistible charm of his new neighbour, Elisha. He has no plans to put down roots or fall in love…even if Elisha is unravelling his hesitations like a bad Christmas sweater.

      There’s no question the two are opposites in every way. Ves is undeniably frosty. Elisha is brimming with warmth. He doesn’t do commitment. She never runs from a challenge. But as the two grow closer, they quickly realize that the growing spark between them may be just what the season calls for…

      COMPLETELY REVISED AND UPDATED EDITION — THE ESSENTIAL HISTORY OF THE TROUBLES

      ‘Compellingly written and very even-handed. By far the clearest account of what happened in the Northern Ireland conflict and more importantly why it happened’ Irish News

      ‘Extraordinarily well-balanced, sane, comprehensive and rich in sober understatement’ Glasgow Herald
      __________________________

      First published two decades ago, Making Sense of the Troubles is widely regarded as the most ‘comprehensive, considered and compassionate’ (Irish Times) history of the Troubles in Northern Ireland. Written by a distinguished journalist and a teacher of history in Northern Ireland, it surveys the roots of the problems from 1921 onwards, the descent into violence in the late 60s, and the three terrible decades that followed.

      In this fully revised and updated version, McKittrick and McVea take into account the momentous events of the ten years that followed their first publication, including the disbanding of the IRA, Ian Paisley’s deal with the Republicans and the historic power-sharing government in Belfast.
      __________________________

      ‘An updated reissue of a collaborative study published 12 years ago to rave reviews as a frank, accurate and authoritative narrative of events which should be required reading for anyone hoping to understand what had been going on in the North’ Irish Independent
