The World in Turmoil
£11.99Now more than ever, might is right – or so today’s strongman leaders would have us believe. In this era of conflict and souring historical alliances, how will the world’s nations co-exist and survive? ‘The World in Turmoil’ untangles the complex threads of geopolitics that both bind us and threaten to tear us apart. From military might to soft power and from empires to rogue states, John Andrews takes the long view of the factors that influence relations between countries, complete with a jargon-busting A-Z of key terms and concepts to help us navigate the changing landscape. He offers a clear-sighted analysis of the themes and trends governing global politics – and why we ignore them at our peril.

Down Old Roads
£22.00For a million years people have been travelling throughout Europe, from the mysterious homo antecessor who left his footprints on the coast of England to travellers on the motorways of today. Under every footstep lies an older one, under every paved road a donkey trail or wagon rut, under every footpath the prints of a hunter or his prey. And yet the long, nation-spanning roads of Europe don’t hold a special place in the imaginations and identities of its residents. No classic songs have been written about the E8, the way Americans have written about Route 66. Are Europeans too attached to their own home patch? Or have they too often seen armies marching towards them along those roads? Eager to answer that question, Mathijs Deen goes in search of the warriors, refugees, bandits, pilgrims, fortune-seekers, conquerors and racers who advanced into history along the roads of Europe.

IT’s Terrible the Things I Have to Do to Be Me
£12.99How does an icon become an icon? How did Anna Nicole Smith model herself on Marilyn Monroe? What connects Lindsay Lohan with Elizabeth Taylor? How is self-made beauty Pamela Anderson like trans bond girl Caroline ‘Tula’ Cossey?

Full of the fascinating, entertaining and lurid details you might expect from the lives of mega-famous celebrities, dissected with icicle-sharp intelligence and rendered in stylish, flamboyant prose, Philippa Snow’s first full-length non-fiction work is a radically insightful book about the complex meanings and layers of femininity in a male-dominated world.
