The Fighter of Auschwitz: The incredible true story of Leen Sanders who boxed to help others survive
**A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER**‘He had the dream again last night… He taps the gloves of his unbeaten Polish opponent. There are rumours that the loser will be sent to the gas chamber.’
In 1943, the Dutch champion boxer, Leen Sanders, was sent to Auschwitz. His wife and children were put to death while he was sent ‘to the left’ with the others who were fit enough for labour. Recognised by an SS officer, he was earmarked for a ‘privileged’ post in the kitchens in exchange for weekly boxing matches for the entertainment of the Nazi guards. From there, he enacted his resistance to their limitless cruelty.
With great risk and danger to his own life, Leen stole, concealed and smuggled food and clothing from SS nursing units for years to alleviate the unbearable suffering of the prisoners in need. He also regularly supplied extra food to the Dutch women in Dr. Mengele’s experiment, Block 10. To his fellow Jews in the camp, he acted as a rescuer, leader and role model, defending them even on their bitter death march to Dachau towards the end of the war.
A story of astonishing resilience and compassion, The Fighter of Auschwitz is a testament to the endurance of humanity in the face of extraordinary evil.

Now, we present the very best of Sign Language – both seen and unseen – and offer a timely warning about the imperilled state of modern English.

Venture Capital Deal Terms: A guide to negotiating and structuring venture capital transactions
So you’re (about to be) involved in a Venture Capital deal. How do you ensure you end up with the best possible deal?You need to know what you’re talking about. Not just on a basic level. On every level. You need to understand the ins and outs of the deal. What are your options? How exactly can they impact you, now as well as in the future? What are the people on the “other side of the table” aiming for? What are the pitfalls?
Only if you truly understand the deal, will you be able to come to the best possible deal. And to truly understand the deal, you need to understand the deal from the perspective of both the investor and the entrepreneur.
This new book of VC investor Harm de Vries and VC lawyers Menno van Loon and Sjoerd Mol, provides an in-depth practical look into venture capital deals. Together, the authors have been involved in hundreds of VC deals. Their expertise covers both the investor’s perspective and the entrepreneur’s perspective.
The book shows you how deal terms work out in practice and explains the economics behind the deal terms. And – crucially – it does so both from the point of view of the entrepreneur as well as that of the investor.
The book starts with an introduction of the investment process in general and the different stages of financing. Next, the book introduces a case study of a Series A financing of a startup. A Series A term sheet is used as the basis for the discussion of the different clauses used in venture capital transactions. Each subsequent chapter discusses a certain type of clause in the term sheet (e.g. milestone investments, liquidation preference, anti-dilution protection, and drag along). These chapters also include a standard (and, if applicable, alternative) version(s) of the relevant clause.
The book includes many examples, as well as negotiation tips for both entrepreneurs and investors. The result is an extremely practical guide to venture capital deals, which will be invaluable to anyone involved in venture capital transactions – investors, entrepreneurs and advisors.
For more information on this book and its authors, please see the book’s website: www.venturecapitaldealterms.com. The special VC Term Sheet Template contained in the book can be downloaded (for free) from the aforementioned website.

Vermeer – The Rijksmuseum’s major exhibition catalogue
PUBLISHED TO ACCOMPANY THE ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME EXHIBITION AT THE RIJKSMUSEUM, AMSTERDAM, THIS IS THE FIRST MAJOR STUDY ON VERMEER’S LIFE AND WORK FOR MANY YEARS.
———-
‘Proust was once so excited to see a Vermeer show that he collapsed … I got chest pains merely leafing through the catalogue’ Jonathan Jones, Guardian
‘Invest in the fat catalogue, stuffed with scholarly discoveries and photographic closeups, and you will learn about everything from Vermeer’s optical mastery to his moral symbolism’ Rachel Campbell-Johnston, The Times
‘Excellent’Artists & Illustrators
‘Getting a ticket for the once-in-a-lifetime Vermeer exhibition, above, at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam this year might frankly be a bit of a challenge, but you can at least console yourself with the exhibition catalogue, published by Thames & Hudson, which is a gorgeous thing. Nothing matches seeing a painting in the flesh, but this comes mightily close.’The Herald
———-
Vermeer’s intensely quiet and enigmatic paintings invite the viewer into a private world, often prompting more questions than answers. Who is being portrayed? Are his subjects real or imagined? And how did he create such an unrivalled sense of intimacy?
Bringing together diverse strands of the Dutch master’s professional and private worlds, this is the first major authoritative study of Vermeer’s life and work for many years, throwing light on all thirty-seven of his paintings.
The book was designed by Irma Boom, the ‘Queen of Books’, and printed on an uncoated ‘Munken Print White’ paper, specially commissioned to ensure the veracity of colours. Irma Boom says: ‘the matte paper brings you closer to Vermeer; there is no gloss or glare in between, just like with the real works.’ With a wide selection of contextual illustrations, commentaries and up-to-date research by distinguished international Vermeer scholars, this is the definitive volume on the most admired of all seventeenth-century Dutch masters.

Bart Cornelis, National Gallery, London

VERY GOOD car stories: Lots of things to read about cars and the people who drive them
Who is the world’s fastest blind driver and what is the Taliban’s own supercar like?
Who spent 50 years driving an electric egg and why was a German teenage driver banned 49 minutes after passing his test?
The VERY GOOD Car Stories book has quite a few things in it, some of them almost as good as these.
Top Gear writer Simon Heptinstall’s last book of car trivia was widely praised (by his family). This one is nearly as good. There are more than 40,000 words of weird and funny stories about cars and motoring in it.

Vicarious Trauma in the Legal Profession: a practical guide to trauma, burnout and collective care
Vicarious Trauma in the Legal Profession is a practical guide to trauma, burnout and collective care. Using case studies from lawyers in their own words, it provides the individual with tools for self-reflection and provides organisations with an understanding of trauma-informed working practices and guidance towards implementing collective care, training and support in the workplace.
Vicarious Trauma in the Legal Profession is essential reading for social justice lawyers across many areas of law and should be required reading for organisational leaders, HR managers, practice managers, representational and membership associations and those in charge of regulation of the professions.
Lawyers working in legal aid, social justice or with survivors of injury regularly work with traumatic and emotionally potent caseloads and often draw on skills for which they have had no formal training. They bear witness to the pain of clients, to the suffering that humans inflict upon each other, and to the incredible strength of survivors of violence, torture and abuse. They do this while dealing with the financial pressure of poor rates of pay, constantly overstretched resources and a relentlessly hostile political environment.
While there has been a growing conversation within the legal profession about the mental health of lawyers, much of it looks at mental health as a primarily personal issue: the individual s work/life balance and stress as a personal response. Vicarious Trauma in the Legal Profession draws focus to the impact of traumatic casework for lawyers and how collectively change can be made.

Victor Chandler: Put Your Life On It
After the sell-out success of the hardback edition, this book is now available in paperback where Victor Chandler, the most recognisable face in bookmaking, tells his remarkable life story in ‘Put Your Life On It: Staying At The Top in the Cut-throat World of Gambling.’
In this new authorised biography written by Jamie Reid, Chandler will reveal how gambling was in his blood from birth. Discover how his grandfather dealt with Darby Sabini’s Italian mob, Alfie Solomons and the real Peaky Blinders. How his father, Victor senior, built up the firm only for illness to force ‘Young Victor’ into the fray at the age of 23 – the start of a high life and fast times.
To begin with, he found the going tough. He almost accepted an offer to sell up from Playboy Bookmakers. But fortunately he stuck with it just in time to enjoy his first profitable Royal Ascot and from then on there was no going back.
In the face of the UK recession in the 1990s he went out to the Far East and began duelling audaciously with colossal Asian punters while dodging the attentions of the Triads in Hong Kong and Macau. Then at the end of the decade he sparked a revolution by moving his entire business offshore to Gibraltar; he is often credited with being the first to take gambling online.
Victor shares his often hilarious memories of 40 years of a high-octane racing and bookmaking life, populated by a huge cast of colourful characters including the artist Lucian Freud, who painted ‘VC’ as well as betting with him.

Victorian Buxton & The Queen Of Scots Quest
A fictional, romanticised, Victorian tale about a small but significant town in middle England. A place known these days as Buxton began its existence as the hidden away, mountain top, Roman province of Britannia. Which started out as a simple encampment based around it’s natural, warm springs.
A congenial ride out to the pleasantly enhanced town for a tranquil get together, quickly evolves to reveal an unforeseen mystery of royal creation. A rare and demanding quest that requires mental agility and bold determination to solve.
The long forgotten task soon becomes the joint responsibility of two, young, Victorian companions. Who venture forth and travel around the town and beyond its limits. Carefully directed to local destinations of interest and intrigue set across the wild and bewitching Derbyshire peaks. Where the promise of answers lie cold and dormant, obscured from their view by centuries of historical happenings. The avid friends must delve into a painful past and reach for understanding to progress.
Alis and Ivor’s visit takes them up into the hills that surround the town and leads them on an unusual mission in the name of Mary, Queen of the Scots. Cryptic instructions left 300 years earlier by the hapless Queen, takes them on an esoteric trail of fortune.
During its existence Buxton has not only been a Roman outpost with soothing waters, it has been a distant Tudor village with healing liquid properties, as well as a fine Victorian Spa Town. Providing elegant, summer time, luxury bathing for the landed gentry of the age.
Their escapade presents itself in 1894, during a period of time when Buxton enjoyed its apex of glamorous indulgence and sophisticated excellence. Since then the vast majority of the Victorian property in Buxton, and its associated history, has been protected. The land, most of which still belongs to the current Duchess and Duke of Devonshire, has been guarded over the years against any great changes. The Duke, his wife and their predecessors have been developing and watching over Buxton, one way or another, for many hundreds of years.-Inspiration-
A View From A WindowThe author of this book lived for many years at –
No.1 Pavilion Mansions,
Hartington Road,
Buxton.
Which has an interesting view through a large, stone, bay window on the side elevation of the substantial Victorian property. A view that encompasses the passage of Buxton’s history through the ages.
To the right of the window a neglected lane passes by. Beneath the moss and debris, a cobbled road once built by Roman soldiers (AD43-410) runs down from higher to lower Buxton. Which brought to mind horse drawn chariots, rolling down the hill towards the towns health giving springs.
Directly ahead lies The Old Hall Hotel (1573). Which was built to house Mary Queen of Scots. Who will have walked out of the Hall onto the dusty road. Absorbing the scenery and deeply breathing in the clean mountain air. Seeking to find some solace for her persecuted soul.
Behind The Hall, the Devonshire Dome (1789) presents itself as a magnificent example of Victorian engineering and ingenuity. Once famed for being the largest unsupported dome in the world. Which indicates the quality of architects once drawn to the town.
On the far side of the Dome The Palace Hotel (1863) stands wide. A place where Victorian gentry would have walked and talked and paraded their finery.
Yonder, the caressing hills frame the view. Tree covered hills that have been there forever which turn from green, to orange, to the bright white of snow in the winter.
The Romans, the Tudors, and the Victorians all sought out Buxton. Which caused the author to spend her evenings looking out of the window, that captures 2,000 years of Buxton history. Wondering what else the people from bygone days, did with their time whilst in Buxton.Read more
