Eldridge J: Murder at the Colosseum

Murder at the Colosseum

The captivating historical whodunnit set in Rome

1897, London. The capital is shocked to learn that the body of a woman has been found at the National Gallery, eviscerated in a manner that recalls all too strongly the exploits of Jack the Ripper. The Museum Detectives Daniel Wilson and Abigail Fenton are contacted by a curator of the Gallery for their assistance. The dead woman, a lady of the night, had links to artist Walter Sickert who was a suspect during the Ripper's spree of killings. Scotland Yard have arrested Sickert on suspicion of this fresh murder but it is not the last. Copycat murders of the Ripper's crimes implicate the artist who loves to shock but Sickert insists that he is innocent. Wilson and Fenton have their work cut out catching an elusive and determined killer.

The thrilling historical whodunnit

Murder at the National Gallery

Exposes the anatomy of organizational harm and how to save institutions from toxic culture While we often read about corporate scandals, we are left wondering: why do organizations keep causing harm?​​​​​​​ Benjamin van Rooij and Nicholas Lord argue that to truly understand and address the impacts of dysfunctional organizations we must look beyond the senior executives and/or leaders and understand the deeper problems in the organization itself. To do so, Toxic uses dozens of in-depth case studies to connect the dots between various scandals and illustrate the deeper toxic patterns within organizations that lead to them. Each chapter recounts compelling stories of individuals caught within these toxic systems and addresses urgent societal challenges such as environmental degradation, the opioid epidemic, the harms of social media, and police abuse. Stories include: <ul><li>Boeing focusing so much on its day-to-day share price that it lost sight of ensuring the long-term safety of its 737 MAX airplanes.</li><li>Volkswagen experimenting with monkeys locked in cages breathing exhaust fumes in a desperate attempt to deny the harm of its “clean diesel” engines.</li><li>How the Oakland Police Department taught its rookies to engage in racist and abusive policing practices, resisting decades-long attempts to reform the department.</li></ul> Revealing, accessible, and engaging, Toxic, breaks down the core characteristics of toxic organizations and shows readers how to recognize and address toxicity in their everyday lives.

How Organizations Go Bad

Toxic

The MIT Press Essential Knowledge series

What lies underneath digital platforms—their invisible architecture and governance that determine everything visible. Every time you unlock your phone, stream a show, or start your car, you’re entering a world shaped by thousands of engineering decisions you’ll never see. Most platform conversations fixate on their visible canopy—business models, user experience, competitive strategy—the “leaves,” in a sense. Platforms by Amrit Tiwana excavates their roots. The book begins with a simple DNA test that separates authentic from faux platforms, then traces the forces turning tractors, pacemakers, and elevators into platforms. Using the platform trinity, the author explores principles behind why platforms behave so differently, why superior technology doesn’t always win, and why—unlike products that reach a final form—platforms never stop evolving. From there the book explains platforms’ two hidden root systems: The first system, architecture, shows how Lego-like “modular” design, frozen interfaces, and prefab building blocks let thousands of outsiders contribute pieces that snap into colossal systems. The second system, governance, describes where architecture confronts human behavior. Elegant architecture flails with poor governance, so both demand discipline.

**A Guardian Best Science and Nature Book of 2025** From the award-winning science writer, a new history of the development of nuclear power and the extraordinary minds behind itHenry Becquerel's accidental discovery, in Paris in 1896, of a faint smudge on a photographic plate sparked a chain of discoveries which would unleash the atomic age.Destroyer of Worlds is the story of how pursuit of this hidden source of nuclear power, which began innocently and collaboratively, was overwhelmed by the politics of the 1930s, and following devastation of Hiroshima and Nagasaki opened the way to a still more terrible possibility: a thermonuclear bomb, the so-called "backyard weapon", that could destroy all life on earth - from anywhere.The story spans decades and continents, moving from Becquerel to Ernest Rutherford, the Cambridge-based, New Zealand scientist who first split the atom, expands to include Enrico Fermi in Rome, Otto Hahn and Lise Meitner in Berlin and the Joliot-Curies in Paris, leading to the appearance of Robert Oppenheimer before climaxing with increasingly horrifying developments in the USA and USSR. The roles of three remarkable women - Lise Meitner, Ida Noddack and Irene Curie - are re-evaluated, and there are new insights into the work of Ettore Majorana, Fermi's mercurial but brilliant assistant, who mysteriously disappeared in 1938, possibly after foreseeing the explosive power of nuclear energy. Above all, this is a story of how knowledge is often advanced by personal convictions and relationships, an indeed by chance, in a remarkable way.

Why Big Labor moved to the right—and the fight ahead for the left to win back America’s working class Unions helped construct the American middle class, defeat Jim Crow, and advance progressive rights, but in Trump’s America, the labor movement is changing. In Big Labor's Big Shift, journalist Nathan Bomey explores how Big Labor and the working class are no longer an automatic ally of the American left. Fueled by decades of economic decline, political disillusionment, and cultural disenfranchisement, new politically nebulous and economically populist leaders in the movement are building a powerful new movement based on class warfare that prizes wage and benefit gains over traditional progressive priorities. Through original reporting and first-hand interviews, Bomey traces key events that have led to this political shift. Bomey reveals: -At the Teamsters, president Sean O’Brien is cozying up to Donald Trump and blasting Democrats as tools of big business, even showing up at the Republican National Convention to deliver his message. -At the United Auto Workers, president Shawn Fain is seizing an opportunity to break the free trade consensus in Washington. The devout Christian, who wields religious rhetoric from the stump, is aligning with the Trump White House on tariffs and blasting Democrats for aggressively pursuing electric vehicles to fight climate change. Bomey shows how the two interconnected phenomena represent a massive political realignment—not just along cultural and nationalism lines, but of the working class itself away from its historic roots in the Democratic party. Urgent and compelling, Big Labor's Big Shift encapsulates the fight for the soul of the union movement.

The Impossible Gladiator

A rollicking, eye-opening history of the Star Wars franchise: an unrivaled force in popular culture that changed the way Hollywood makes movies—and that is now imperiled by many of the industry forces it set in motion From the premiere of the first film in 1977, the Star Wars franchise not only captured the imaginations of billions of people—and&nbsp;billions&nbsp;of dollars of revenue—but also rewrote the rules of the entertainment industry. Game-changing special effects, must-have collectibles, and the richness of George Lucas’s ever-expanding narrative&nbsp;gave rise to a new Hollywood model in which the boundary between screen and life collapsed. Star Wars wasn’t just a movie, after all: it was&nbsp;an alternate universe, a moral code, a way of life. Over the last half-century, Wall Street Journal reporter Erich Schwartzel explains, the Star Wars franchise has relied on an anti-establishment ethos, the savvy of executives, and the devotion of moviegoers to become a new American myth. But since its fateful acquisition by Disney in 2012, Star Wars has become a cautionary tale of Hollywood excess, and its present status as a corporate holding bears little resemblance to its origins. Drawing on scores of insider interviews and surveying fifty years of American culture and commerce, Schwartzel delivers fresh perspective on the Star Wars story, bringing to life the scrappy creative spirit of Lucasfilm’s early days; the box-office frenzy that rang in Hollywood’s blockbuster era and gave rise to a new industry playbook; and the scores of fans whose lives have been shaped by this singular force. A panoramic narrative of dreams, obsession, and power, Rebels and Empires is the untold history of Hollywood’s most storied epic.

Rebels and Empires

Flannery O'Connor on Writing

A charred notebook, rescued from a long-forgotten fire, becomes an unlikely piece of evidence and catalyst to help unravel a century-old mystery.

When he was a child, the author first encountered the fragile remains of his great-grandmother Armina's notebook - an object so damaged and incomplete it seemed meaningless. Passed down through generations, its brittle, charred pages held only fragments, offering no clear story. Yet its quiet presence lingered, a puzzle waiting to be solved.

Years later, a chance discovery in the walls of a Missouri home would transform that childhood curiosity into a decades-long investigation. A hidden newspaper from 1892 revealed that Armina was not simply the kind and loving figure remembered in family lore, but the central figure in a sensational murder trial that captured national and international attention. Accused of killing her young stepdaughter and ultimately acquitted, her story had been scattered across archives and forgotten records for over a century.

Driven by the mystery of the burned notebook and the shadow it cast over his family's past, the author embarks on a meticulous reconstruction of the events surrounding that tragic day. Drawing from historical accounts, newspaper reports, and years of research, he pieces together a gripping narrative of suspicion, family conflict, and justice in Gilded Age America.

This is the story of a girl whose life was nearly erased, a crime that shocked a nation, and the enduring power of history to survive - even when the pages meant to preserve it have turned to ash.

A Voice For Evie

A clear, nontechnical guide to why cryptocurrency exists, how it reshapes trust and money, and why it matters beyond speculation. How do we build trust in a digital world where institutions, platforms, and intermediaries increasingly mediate money, identity, and ownership? In Cryptocurrency and Blockchain, Marco Di Maggio offers an essential guide to cryptocurrencies and blockchains—two of the most misunderstood technological and economic transformations of the digital age. Rather than focusing on price charts, hype cycles, or programming details, Di Maggio explains why these technologies exist, what problems they attempt to solve, and why they matter for people who are not crypto insiders. Using plain language, analogies, and real-world examples, the book explains how cryptocurrencies reshape core concepts of money, property, markets, and governance. The author explores topics such as how and why Bitcoin is used as a financial fallback, what stablecoins are and how they have become critical infrastructure for global payments, and how NFTs introduced a new notion of ownership and identity on the internet. Written for curious readers, journalists, students, policymakers, and professionals, Cryptocurrency provides a conceptual framework for understanding crypto as infrastructure, not ideology—helping readers see past the noise to grasp the deeper forces reshaping money, trust, and coordination in the digital economy.
