Story
Great Britain? is a much-needed antidote to the pervading sense that Britain is going backwards rather than forwards. It is both a clear-eyed and rigorous diagnosis of the problems facing our country – a unique toxicity of huge inequality and stagnant economic growth – and a hopeful case for reclaiming a different future: by building an investment nation of good work, resilient communities and secure homes, a society in which both burdens and prosperity are shared.

Story
On the 25th anniversary of the Scottish Parliament, this book captures an important moment in contemporary history: how a grassroots women's movement, harking back to the suffragettes and second wave feminists of the 1970s and 1980s, took on the political establishment - and changed the course of history. Through a collection of over thirty essays and photographs, some of the women involved tell the story of the five-year campaign to protect women's sex-based rights.

Story
In the annals of piracy, few figures are as enigmatic and controversial as Captain William Kidd. His journey from a reputable seaman to one of the most infamous pirates encapsulates the blurred lines and moral ambiguities of 17th-century piracy and privateering. But he also lived through seismic times in the history of England, Scotland, the Caribbean and of the Americas, especially New York. It's an incredible journey, scuppered by those in high places with wealth and power that all began with maritime tradition dating before Julius Caesar.

One of the world's leading anthropologists reveals how our evolutionary past informed the birth and rise of global civilisation. Unveiling a visionary new way of studying human history - one that stunningly weaves together experimental psychology, anthropology and quantitative social science - Harvey Whitehouse uncovers the three evolutionary biases that shape our social behaviour: conformism, religiosity and tribalism.

Story
'All roads lead to Rome.' It's a medieval proverb, but it's also true: today's European roads still follow the networks of the ancient empire and continue to grip our modern imaginations as a physical manifestation of Rome’s ‘extraordinary greatness’. Over the two thousand years since they were first built, the roads have been walked by crusaders and pilgrims, liberators and dictators, but also by tourists and writers, refugees and artists. The Roads to Rome is a magnificent journey into a past that remains intimately connected to our present.

Story
Straight Acting is a surprising portrait of Shakespeare's queer lives - his own and those in his plays and poems. It is a journey back in time and through Shakespeare's England, revealing a culture that both endorsed and supressed same-sex desire. It is a call to stop making Shakespeare act straight and to recognise how queerness powerfully shaped the life and career of the world's most famous playwright.

Story
In 1995, James W. Loewen penned the classic work of criticism Lies My Teacher Told Me, a left-leaning corrective that addressed much of what was sanitized and omitted from American history books. But in the decades that followed, false leftist narratives—as wrong as those they supplanted—have come to dominate American academia and education. Now, in the same spirit but updated for 2024, Wilfred Reilly demolishes the scholastic myths propagated by the left, uncovers fresh angles on “established” events, and turns what we think we know about history upside down.

Story
"Brutta, povera e comunista" disse di Teresa Noce la madre del suo futuro marito – nonché segretario del Partito comunista italiano – Luigi Longo. Quella di Teresa Noce, nata poverissima alle "Cà neire", il quartiere più difficile di Torino, all’inizio del ventesimo secolo, è la storia di una femminista ante litteram che attraversa controcorrente quasi tutto il Novecento. Proletaria, figlia di una lavandaia abbandonata dal marito, fin da giovanissima organizza i primi scioperi delle operaie tessili e da iscritta al Pci è protagonista dell’antifascismo dopo la presa del potere di Mussolini.

Story
The politics and recent history of the Middle East can seem baffling to outsiders. Nowhere was that more evident than during the Lebanon War that raged in 1982. Even contemporary reporting often made fundamental mistakes, and there was little general understanding of what was happening and why. This conflict involved a bewildering number of groups and influences from different parts of the world. The precipitating event was the attempted assassination of the Israeli ambassador in London, carried out by members of a Palestinian terrorist group.

Story
Разгоревшаяся война Севера и Юга… И попавший в эту эпоху русский человек, вставший на сторону Конфедерации, прикладывающий все силы для сокрушения северян. Почему? Да потому, что он помнит родной XXI век и ту необъятную власть, которую захватили финансовые транснациональные корпорации. Потому что понимает ненависть стоящих за спиной президента Линкольна к южанам, к Конфедерации. Ибо ничего так не боятся банкиры, как победы тех, которые их считают теми, кем они являются на самом деле — то есть обычными дешевыми ростовщиками, которых и на порог-то пускать неприлично.

Analysant les régimes totalitaires, le livre est un avertissement contre la socialisation de l’économie qui selon Hayek pousse les citoyens sur la route de la servitude et conduit les démocraties occidentales à de graves dérives, jusqu'à la dictature d'une minorité sur le peuple. Le livre est un fervent plaidoyer en faveur des régimes libéraux. " La tendance moderne vers le socialisme signifie une rupture brutale non seulement avec le passé récent mais encore avec toute l’évolution de la civilisation occidentale […].

Sembrano ormai lontani i tempi della Cool Britannia, quegli anni "ruggenti" a cavallo tra il XX e il XXI secolo in cui la stella di Londra brillava più che mai, rappresentando nell'immaginario collettivo un faro a cui guardare per capire dove stesse andando il mondo. Dalla musica delle Spice Girls all'arte di Damien Hirst, dal fenomeno David Beckham alla moda di Alexander McQueen e Vivienne Westwood fino al cinema di Danny Boyle, c'è stata un'epoca in cui la Gran Bretagna era il centro nevralgico di tendenze e rivoluzioni, all'avanguardia in tutti i campi.

Depuis Mao, aucun dirigeant chinois n’avait concentré autant de pouvoir entre ses mains que Xi Jinping, qui a accédé en 2012 à la fonction suprême de secrétaire général du parti communiste chinois (pcc) puis, un an plus tard, à celle de président de la République populaire de Chine. Si Poutine et Erdogan sont des représentants remarqués et tonitruants de l’illibéralisme, le numéro un chinois Xi Jinping a choisi, lui, la discrétion. François Bougon, journaliste au Monde, décortique ici le personnage et sa stratégie.
