The ultimate guide to style and social success for the modern gentleman. Ever wondered how to decode the infamous smart casual dress code? How many shirts a man really needs? How to master the art of small talk? Or even which cocktail recipes every man simply must have in his repertoire of bar skills? This title will have all the answers the modern man requires to put his best foot forward for all occasions, from the office, to weddings and sporting events and even long weekends away.

Relaxed, flexible home cooking from Yotam Ottolenghi and his superteam. Whether they’re conjuring up new recipes or cooking for themselves at home, the Ottolenghi Test Kitchen team do what we all do: they raid their kitchens. But then, they turn whatever they find into approachable creations with an ‘Ottolenghi’ twist. This instinct is in perfect sync with recent times, when we’ve all been standing in front of our kitchen shelves, our cupboards and our fridges, wondering what to cook with what we’ve got; how to put a can of chickpeas or a bag of frozen peas to good use, instead of taking an extra trip to the shops. The team welcome us into their creative space. This book is all about feeding ourselves and our families with less stress and less fuss, but with all the ‘wow’ of an Ottolenghi meal.

With insight and wit, it lays bare her journey to reclaiming her creativity and power, inviting readers to reflect on theirs.

Within a decade, America’s flourishing forward-thinking vision was incarcerated by the unchecked financial accumulation and political power of the super-rich. Now, the moneymen are running the show. In this hugely entertaining and deeply researched cultural and economic exposé, Kurt Andersen maps the rich history of intricate networks, unlikely connections and dark truths which are controlling a nation, revealing how on earth America got to where it is now – and what it might do to win its progressive future back.

Letters that have made, and still can make, the world a better place. In an era where the liberties we often take for granted are under threat, this is a collection of inspiring letters – some private and some open – that offer reminders from history that standing up for and voicing our personal and political beliefs is a crucial right and a duty if we want to change the world. From Abraham Lincoln and Emmeline Pankhurst through to Obama and Malala, many are penned by major figures from the world stage, others by ordinary citizens caught up in the stream of history in their pursuit of what’s right. The letters, each briefly introduced to give its full historical context, cover every modern political and social cause and give a sense of the struggles of the past with the intimate first-hand access that only letters allow.

A decade ago, Caitlin Moran thought she had it all figured out. Her instant bestseller ‘How to Be a Woman’ was a game-changing take on feminism, the patriarchy, and the general ‘hoo-ha’ of becoming a woman. Back then, she firmly believed ‘the difficult bit’ was over, and her 40s were going to be a doddle. If only she had known: when middle age arrives, a whole new bunch of tough questions need answering. Now with aging parents, teenage daughters, a bigger bum and a To-Do list without end, Caitlin Moran is back with ‘More Than A Woman’ – a manifesto for change, and a celebration of all those middle-aged women who keep the world turning.

Lucy Kellaway had a comfortable life. For years she had the same prestigious job, the same husband, and the same home. To the casual observer, she was both happy and successful. But one day, Lucy began to realise that the life she had built for herself no longer suited her. Was it too late to start again? The answer was no – so she proceeded to tear down both marriage and career, and went back to school. Retraining as a teacher, Lucy discovers there is a world of new possibilities awaiting her – and learns that you can teach an old dog new tricks (providing they are willing to un-learn a few old ones along the way). A witty and moving story of one woman’s pursuit of a new life, ‘Re-educated’ is a celebration of education’s power to transform our lives at any age, and an essential companion for anyone facing the joy – and pain – of starting again.

‘Save Our Birds’ is a celebration of our endangered birds and call to arms for bird-lovers of all ages to help protect them. Matt has created new, beautiful watercolour artworks of Britain’s most loved birds, and their habitats, all of which are sadly on the Red List – the respected, international guide to endangered species. Sewell provides a wealth of practical advice on how we can protect them from extinction. Explore cities, coastlands, woodlands and farms, leaving no habitat unexplored around the British Isles.

Everyday vegetable dishes to share with friends and family. Kathy Slack takes us through a year in her veg patch in this celebration of her ten favourite things to grow and eat.
