*AN INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* 'As the title suggests, Waypoints is a rewarding mix of markers, both personal as he reflects on his life and geographical as he leads the reader along the West Highland Way' - The Scotsman 'A deeply personal and warmly entertaining memoir that fans of Sam - and Scotland - will have a joyful time devouring' - Heat 'From both his walk and his career, the common lesson is the power of persistence.' - The Times 'A pleasure for fans of the author, whisky, and Scotland.' - Kirkus 'Waypoints is a memoir with a difference! I wanted to tell the stories and share the experiences that have shaped me, but to do that I needed to challenge myself and spend some time in my own company, away from the distractions of everyday life. And for me there's no better place to reflect than in the wild Scottish Highlands.' In this journey of self-discovery, Sam Heughan sets out along the West Highland Way to explore his heritage and reflect on the personal waypoints that define him. The result is a love letter to the wild Scottish landscape that means so much to Sam, and a charming, funny, wise and searching insight to the world through his eyes. The walk itself is the backdrop for this narrative, which tells the story of Sam's life while exploring his outlook, values and interests. Sam is a figure of fascinating contrasts, a Hollywood star with deep roots in rural Scotland, he's both outgoing and content in his own company. He has strong connections with his fans while recognising the fragility and value of anonymity, and in My Peak Challenge he has created a network that brings people together as they chase individual goals. In his new book, while charting a path through a stunning wilderness, Sam maps out the moments that shaped his views on dreams and ambition, family, friendships, love and life. Waypoints is a deeply personal journey that reveals as much to Sam about himself as it does to his readers. Sunday Times in the UK and New York Times bestseller in the US in November 2022.

Inside their Secret World

The Science of Plants

"A major new look at Africa's influence on European culture and how colonization remade Africa in the image of a medieval Europe. Virgil. Chaucer. Petrarch. These names resonate with many as cornerstones of European culture. Yet, in Atlas's Bones, D. Vance Smith reveals that much of what is claimed as European culture up to the Middle Ages-its great themes in literature, its sources in political thought, its religious beliefs-originated in the writings of African thinkers like Augustine, Fulgentius, and Martianus Capella, or Europeans who thought extensively about Africa. In fact, a third of Virgil's Aeneid takes place in Africa. Francis Petrarch believed his most important achievement was his epic Africa; while Geoffrey Chaucer wrote repeatedly about the figures of Scipio Africanus, actually two different men who defeated and destroyed Carthage. Smith tells the story of how Europe created a false "medieval" version of Africa to acquire resources and power during the era of imperialism and colonialism. The first half of the book, "Reading Africa," traces Egypt's, Libya's, and Carthage's influence on classical and medieval thinking about Africa, highlighting often ignored literary and legendary traditions, for example, that Alexander the Great named himself the son of an African god. The second part, "Writing Africa," focuses on how the different cultures of the two great African cities-Carthage and Alexandria-shaped medieval literary criticism and political theology and examines the cross-influences of modern anthropology, medieval studies, and colonial law. Atlas's Bones firmly re-establishes the significance of Africa in European intellectual history. It will be essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how much of Africa informs our artistic and cultural world"--

‘This collection of timeless photographs gives us an up close inside look at this uniquely complex man and brilliant iconic artist who forever changed the world. One love…’ – Lenny KravitzRebel Music is a tribute to one of the greatest legends in world music, Bob Marley. In 1975, Kate Simon first photographed Bob Marley and the Wailers at the Lyceum in London, where the now-legendary live performance of ‘No Woman No Cry’ was recorded. They then collaborated throughout the Seventies, with Simon shooting some of the most intimate, enduring and emblematic images ever taken of Marley, including his iconic Kaya album cover.Simon captured it all: portraits of the reggae greats of the Seventies, such as Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry, Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh; the Exodus Tour, on the road with Bob Marley and The Wailers as they performed across Europe; and the One Love Peace Concert, where Bob famously united Jamaica’s opposing political leaders. Ultimately, in 1981, Simon would ride with the funeral cortege from Kingston to St Ann and Bob Marley’s final resting place.Rebel Music contains over 400 photographs from Simon’s archives, many published here for the first time. Introduced by Patti Smith, with a foreword by Lenny Kravitz and afterword by Keith Richards, a cast of 24 contributors join Simon in sharing the stories behind the images, including ex-Wailers guitarist Junior Marvin and bass player and band leader Aston ‘Family Man’ Barrett; musicians such as Junior Delgado, Steve Jordan, Paul Simonon and Bruce Springsteen; filmmaker Don Letts and producer Danny Sims; and Island Records founder, Chris Blackwell.

None a Jah Jah Children

Anfang der 1970er Jahre revolutioniert Jamaika den weltweiten Umgang mit Tonaufnahmen. Dort wo der Reggae entsteht, verbinden sich auf ungehörte Weise Technik und Musik. Studioaufnahmen werden in ihre Bestandteile zerlegt und über tiefer gelegten Bässen mit Hall und Echo neu zusammengesetzt. Die produktionstechnische Innovation revolutioniert die internationale Charts- und Clubmusik. Sie beeinflusst die zeitgenössische Musik in all ihren Facetten und macht selbst vor der Klassik nicht halt. 50 Jahre später ist die jamaikanische Erfindung unter der Bezeichnung "Dub" als globales Genre etabliert. Helmut Philipps hat mit Veteranen, Pionieren und Erfindern der Dub-Technik konferiert und erzählt die Biografie des jamaikanischen Dub. Seine Dub-Konferenz hinterfragt die Mythen und Legenden, die das Genre umranken, und zeigt, was daraus geworden ist.

Questlove, the five-time Grammy Award winner and visionary drummer of The Roots, takes readers on a decade-by-decade journey from 1971 to the present. In this New York Times bestseller, he explores how the melodies of our lives are inextricably linked to the shifts in our politics, our culture, and our collective identity.A history of the last half-century and an intimate conversation with one of music's most influential and original voices, Music Is History is a singular look at contemporary America.Questlove finds the hidden connections in the American tapestry, whether investigating how the Blaxploitation era reshaped Black identity or considering the way disco took an assembly line approach to Black genius. And these critical inquiries are complemented by his own memories as a music fan, and how his appetite for pop culture taught him about America.The narrative is fueled by Questlove's singular perspective as a musician, producer, and cultural omnivore. He blends personal anecdotes with rigorous historical analysis, questioning which stories we tell about the past and which voices have been traditionally sidelined in the canon of American music.This exploration is essential for anyone who believes that a playlist can be a manifesto. It is a vibrant, challenging, and deeply personal account of how we have arrived at the present moment, one beat at a time. Questlove invites you to listen closer and see the world as a symphony of intersecting histories."An entertaining, informative and far-reaching work, meticulously excavating American culture and history with the eye of a seasoned cratedigger." -The Washington Post

Martin Störtebäcker, 72 Jahre alt und von seinen Freunden liebevoll »der Käpt'n« genannt, lebt friedlich in der deutschen Rum-Metropole Flensburg, wo sich sein Faible für den köstlichen Zuckerrohrbrand her-vorragend pflegen lässt. Aber dann segnet sein bester Freund Lasse das Zeitliche - und gibt dem Käpt'n aus dem Grab einen letzten Auftrag mit: Er soll zur legendären Rum-Insel Jamaika reisen und sich endlich auf die Suche nach seinem dort verschollenen Bruder begeben. In der Karibik angekommen freundet sich der Käpt'n schnell mit einer abenteuerlustigen Taxifahrerin an, die ihn bei seiner Suche unterstützt. Doch schon bei der Besichtigung der ersten Rum-Distillery stellen sie fest: Etwas stimmt ganz und gar nicht in dem tropischen Paradies. Der Brennmeister der Distillery wird auf brutale Weise ermordet aufgefunden - und es wird nicht der letzte Mord gewesen sein. Ein rasantes Katz-und-Maus-Spiel beginnt ...
