Tito and the Rise and Fall of Yugoslavia
Few figures have dominated a nation’s destiny as much as Marshal Tito of former Yugoslavia. For nearly thirty years he held together mutually hostile religious groups in a deeply divided country, but his death in 1980 rekindled centuries-old hatreds and by 1992 Yugoslavia ceased to exist. In this revealing biography, Richard West questions the full impact of Tito’s reign of power and his implicit responsibility for the ensuing violent, bloody war in Bosnia.
‘Excellent … I recommend his book for those who already know about Yugoslavia and want food for thought about the future.’ David Owen, Sunday Times
‘Admirable … Carefully researched and extremely readable.’ Literary Review
‘A passionate book, in which West’s historical sense is interlaced with his own very intimate knowledge of Yugoslavia from the late 1940s on and of the poignancy of [subsequent] events.’ Fergus Pyle, Irish Times

The Country House Dining Room: A History of Georgian Feasting
The country house dining room was an elaborate theatre for Georgian elites to entertain their guests and, more importantly, show-off their wealth, power and social status. Every detail was carefully orchestrated, usually by the lady of the house, from the decor and tableware to the food and drink served. Decorated with fine art, antique sculptures, and lavish furnishings, the dining room was governed by strict dining etiquette and social rituals. It was expected for guests to eat and drink to excess, so it is perhaps unsurprising that in the Georgian era we see the development of supposed miracle cures for obesity, alcoholism and related illnesses. Drawing on previously unpublished contemporary accounts of feasts at Holkham Hall, Hardwick Hall and Blenheim Palace, among others, Amy Boyington brings the Georgian dining experience to life and charts how the dining room encapsulated the intricate cultural and political dynamics of the 18th century.Read more

Foundational Skills for Writing: A Brain-Based Guide to Strengthen Executive Functions, Language, and Other Cornerstones for Writers
Strengthen the foundational skills that set students up for writing success
Writing is more than putting words down on paper―it’s a tool for thinking and learning, a vehicle for expression and connection.
Yet, writing instruction has often received less attention than reading, even though it′s just as complex. In fact, writing is one of the most complex tasks the brain coordinates, drawing simultaneously on language skills, executive functions, and motor processes.
Foundational Skills for Writing tackles that complexity by offering evidence-based methods, purposeful strategies, and playful approaches teachers can use to nurture essential writing skills. By supporting educators in developing the cognitive, motor, and language foundations of writing, this book helps students succeed academically, express themselves authentically, and connect meaningfully with the world.
Drawing from brain-based research and the science of writing, this book provides:
- Clear explanations of each foundational writing skill, including executive functions, oral language, motor skills, handwriting, spelling, and sentence construction.
- Practical connections to neurological research on the writing brain and how writing skills develop.
- Strategies, lessons, and routines that strengthen writing foundations during busy school days.
- Instructional activities to introduce, reinforce, and review foundational writing skills across primary, elementary, and middle school classrooms― skills that support growth in every area of literacy.
- Vetted tools, authentic examples, and practical scaffolds―making it a read-today, teach-tomorrow resource for immediate classroom impact.
Educators will gain the knowledge and tools to nurture young writers’ growth, support them through challenges, and build their confidence and competence.

The Novel of the Story of Creeping Jazz
A fantasy crime comedy, drenched in noir, nightmares, and nonsense.An unlikely team investigate a string of sinister murders. The only consistent detail? The killer wears a beret and is always accompanied by their own soundtrack—a slow, slinking tune that has been coined, The Creeping Jazz. Some say it’s cursed. Others say it’s catchy but everyone agrees it’s terrifying. The team must go up against a killer who can strike anywhere throughout time and make people dance to death.
In their way will be an unreliable narrator, a Welsh busybody, the magic of hip-hop and the horror of never having enough stationary.
For Dale Allen, a radio presenter with a low chat show survival rate, this is his breakthrough interview, with a band pushing a dangerous cultural phenomenon.
For Lead Detective Michaels, it’s the case that could finally earn him that long-overdue promotion, assuming he can survive his meeting with the notorious surgeon and serial killer, Dr Karlous Kennedious.
And for Charlie Blunderwedge, ex-erotic novelist turned reluctant consultant, it’s a chance to move away from writing naughty titivation and enter the big league of police procedure true crime fiction.
Somewhere in the fogbound city, the truth waits in the shadows—wearing a beret and humming a tune that makes your bones itch.
Unravel the mystery and try not to dance to The Creeping Jazz.

Michael chose to do this as an act of love, not wanting to be separated from his wife nor to leave her alone.

In the experience of care professionals, this is unique.

Nine Months That Count Forever: How your pregnancy diet shapes your baby’s future
From bestselling author and Glucose Goddess, a groundbreaking guide to the science of pregnancy nutrition that empowers mothers-to-be to improve their baby’s health for a lifetime.Most pregnant women are told: ‘Don’t worry – eat whatever you normally eat. Your baby will get what they need from you.’ But science tells a different story: your diet during pregnancy can shape your baby’s brain, body and health for life. And somehow, no one has told you the rules. Until now.
When biochemist Jessie Inchauspé became pregnant, she uncovered striking research: choline, DHA, protein and glucose are four key nutrients that influence a baby’s development in the womb; yet most women don’t get nearly enough of the first three and too much of the fourth.
In 9 Months That Count Forever, Jessie reveals science-based hacks to:
– support your baby’s brain development, cognitive growth and emotional resilience
– help lower their risk of health challenges later in life, like asthma, allergies and diabetes
– influence your baby’s body composition, organ function and long-term metabolismWith guidance on supplements, nausea, labour, breastfeeding, meal plans and recipes, as well as Jessie’s personal journey, this landmark book reveals the extraordinary power mothers hold during pregnancy – and is an essential companion for every parent-to-be.
‘Clear, evidence-based and empowering, this is an essential guide for anyone who wants to understand how food supports life from the very beginning.’

Against Method: Outline of an Anarchistic Theory of Knowledge
Paul Feyerabend’s globally acclaimed work, which sparked and continues to stimulate fierce debate, examines the deficiencies of many widespread ideas about scientific progress and the nature of knowledge. Feyerabend argues that scientific advances can only be understood in a historical context. He looks at the way the philosophy of science has consistently overemphasized practice over method, and considers the possibility that anarchism could replace rationalism in the theory of knowledge.This updated edition of the classic text includes a new introduction by Ian Hacking, one of the most important contemporary philosophers of science. Hacking reflects on both Feyerabend’s life and personality as well as the broader significance of the book for current discussions.

The Thomas the Tank Engine Man: The life of Reverend W Awdry
The stories of Thomas the Tank Engine and his friends have delighted generations of children and adults, but what do we know of the man who created them?
A devoted pastor and family man, the Reverend W Awdry first started telling the stories in order to amuse his own children, with no idea that the characters would lead to a global phenomenon that now, seventy years after their first appearance, shows no signs of waning.
In this fascinating and warm biography, prolific author Brian Sibley brings to life one of the most eminent children’s writers of the twentieth century, tracing his story from his Edwardian childhood through his time at University and into World War 2. A convinced pacifist, Awdry was thrown out of one curacy and denied another, because of his beliefs. Never afraid to fight for what he thought was right, he argued with his publishers and his illustrators, demanding the best for his favourite creations – the trains and their friends.

Theology in Hymns?: A Study of the Relationship of Doxology and Theology According to A Collection of Hymns for the Use of the People Called Methodists (1780)
Of the many hymnbooks published by John and Charles Wesley, the most important was A Collection of Hymns for the Use of the People Called Methodists (1780). Taking this volume as a case study and concentrating on the Charles Wesley hymns included in it, Teresa Berger clarifies the relationship between the language of doxology of worship and praise of God and the substance of theological reflection. She identifies the central theological themes and emphases in this body of hymnody, and raises the question of how theology can be embodied in hymns. Central to her argument is the claim that the theological analysis of doxological material is possible only when it takes care to recognize and safeguard the characteristics, the criteria of authenticity, and the tests of authority and legitimacy peculiar to doxological language. Part One of the book sets the whole discussion within the context of a renewed interest in doxological and liturgical traditions across Christianity by showing how the relationship of doxology and theology is an important topic of theological discussion in Roman Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, and ecumenical circles. Part Two is devoted to a thorough theological analysis of the central themes and images of the 1780 Collection. Part Three attempts to clarify the nature of doxology in its relation to theology.Read more

In response, Roger drew a small orange man with extraordinarily long arms that could reach anywhere and tickle anyone. Mr Tickle, the first of the Mr Men, was born. Mr Tickle was soon joined by Mr Greedy, Mr Happy, Mr Nosey, Mr Sneeze and Mr Bump. The books were an instant hit and Roger went on to create many more Mr Men and Little Miss characters. What Roger really wanted was to make children laugh, which is probably why his own favourite character is Mr Silly.Read more

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens: Miniature Edition
Based on his father’s bestselling The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Sean Covey applies the same principles to teens, using a vivacious, entertaining style. To keep it fun, Covey writes, he “stuffed it full of cartoons, clever ideas, great quotes, and incredible stories about real teens from all over the world . . . along with a few other surprises.” Did he ever! Flip open to any page and become instantly absorbed in real-life stories of teens who have overcome obstacles to succeed, and step-by-step guides to shifting paradigms, building equity in “relationship bank accounts,” creating action plans, and much more. As a self-acknowledged guinea pig for many of his dad’s theories, Sean Covey is a living example of someone who has taken each of the seven habits to heart: be proactive; begin with the end in mind; put first things first; think win-win; seek first to understand, then to be understood; synergize; and sharpen the saw. He includes a comical section titled “The 7 Habits of Highly Defective Teens,” which includes some, shall we say, counterproductive practices: put first things last; don’t cooperate; seek first to talk, then pretend to listen; wear yourself out . . . Covey’s humorous and up-front style is just light enough to be acceptable to wary teenagers, and down-and-dirty enough to really make a difference.Read more

The Norman Conquest
An upstart French duke who sets out to conquer the most powerful and unified kingdom in Christendom. An invasion force on a scale not seen since the days of the Romans. One of the bloodiest and most decisive battles ever fought. This riveting book explains why the Norman Conquest was the single most important event in English history.
Assessing the original evidence at every turn, Marc Morris goes beyond the familiar outline to explain why England was at once so powerful and yet so vulnerable to William the Conqueror’s attack. Why the Normans, in some respects less sophisticated, possessed the military cutting edge. How William’s hopes of a united Anglo-Norman realm unravelled, dashed by English rebellions, Viking invasions and the insatiable demands of his fellow conquerors. This is a tale of powerful drama, repression and seismic social change: the Battle of Hastings itself and the violent ‘Harrying of the North’; the sudden introduction of castles and the wholesale rebuilding of every major church; the total destruction of an ancient ruling class. Language, law, architecture, even attitudes towards life itself were altered forever by the coming of the Normans.
Marc Morris, author of the bestselling biography of Edward I, A Great and Terrible King, approaches the Conquest with the same passion, verve and scrupulous concern for historical accuracy. This is the definitive account for our times of an extraordinary story, a pivotal moment in the shaping of the English nation.

A riveting and authoritative history of the single most important event in English history: The Norman Conquest.
An upstart French duke who sets out to conquer the most powerful and unified kingdom in Christendom. An invasion force on a scale not seen since the days of the Romans. One of the bloodiest and most decisive battles ever fought.
This new history explains why the Norman Conquest was the most significant cultural and military episode in English history. Assessing the original evidence at every turn, Marc Morris goes beyond the familiar outline to explain why England was at once so powerful and yet so vulnerable to William the Conqueror’s attack; why the Normans, in some respects less sophisticated, possessed the military cutting edge; how William’s hopes of a united Anglo-Norman realm unraveled, dashed by English rebellions, Viking invasions, and the insatiable demands of his fellow conquerors.
This is a tale of powerful drama, repression, and seismic social change: the Battle of Hastings itself; the sudden introduction of castles and the massive rebuilding of every major church; the total destruction of an ancient ruling class.
