Answer in the Negative

Mermaids. Monsters. Magic. But this story is no fairy tale . . . Kilmara, Scotland. 1725. For fifty years, Iris has accepted the curse that blighted her life. By night, she is a heartbroken woman, destined to walk the misty shores of Kilmara without growing older. By day, she is Moireach, a terrifying monster imprisoned in the murky depths of Loch Moine. When bodies begin appearing on the shore, the villagers are convinced Moireach is responsible. So a hunter - the rugged, ruthless Henry Carver - is summoned to slay the monster of the loch. Iris must break her curse before she is killed for crimes she cannot believe she has committed. But as Kilmara's hunt for the monster becomes ever more fevered, she and Henry are drawn together in a dangerous game of impossible attraction. And when a figure from Iris's past suddenly reappears, she must choose what - or who - she is willing to sacrifice to win her freedom. Because there is no happily-ever-after when you are the monster. A glitteringly dark reimagining of The Little Mermaid set in eighteenth-century Scotland, this enchanting and gothic historical fantasy is perfect for fans of Rosie Andrews's The Leviathan, Georgia Leighton's Spellbound and anyone who loved Outlander.

The Stranger on the Stairs

'Bang on the money' Guardian 'Reads like a financial thriller' New Statesman 'Astonishing' Irish Times 'Read this if you want to know who precisely is to blame for, well, everything' Oliver Bullough<h4>A thrilling, eye-opening investigation into private equity, a secretive wing of the finance industry that is so relentlessly destructive, it could have been created to undermine our way of life </h4> You don't know their names, but they own the house you rent. They own your hospitals, nurseries and care homes, the media you consume and the companies you work for. They even own the tools your union uses to fight back. Business is a contest - and they say their people are built to win. But when does competition become a struggle to the death?For decades, private equity firms have infiltrated every corner of modern life. Wielding debt as a weapon, they push vital services into crisis. Their cover story: that this is merely the 'creative destruction' essential to growth. Old-school capitalists say they're dismantling everything that made our economies work.In The Asset Class, reporter Hettie O'Brien penetrates a hidden empire of billion-dollar deals and covert financial warfare. From Copenhagen to San Francisco, Barcelona to the Yorkshire Dales, she follows the money, the ideological roots and the trail of destruction. What she finds is chilling: private equity isn't just reshaping the economy - it's selling out the foundations of Western society.The new owners think they can hide in the shadows. But the owned are fighting back. 'Financial journalism at its best . . . utterly terrifying' Peter Oborne 'Rollicking' Nicholas Shaxson 'Dazzling' Ha-Joon Chang 'Essential' Grace Blakeley 'Powerful and necessary' Mariana Mazzucato 'Deftly lifts the curtain on a murky world of greed and destruction' Danny Dorling

Hope Rises

*Shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize* 'A fascinating exploration of the linkages between ancestral inheritance, diasporic belonging, and our climate future... I read it in one sitting, which took me on a moving and often unexpected journey' Aube Rey Lescure 'Part of me knew what the hungry ghosts wanted all along, what they still want. It is not vengeance. No, they want something else, but we refuse to listen. They want us to face up to our broken obligations.' Every spring during the Qingming Festival, people return to their home villages in China to sweep the tombs of their ancestors, making offerings of food and incense to prevent them from becoming hungry ghosts that could cause misfortune. Yet for the past century, a time ruptured by war and revolution, many tombs have been left unattended. Following a record year of wildfires, Alice Mah returns to her family's rice village in South China, and discovers that her ancestors are almost forgotten, and there are no tombs left to sweep. Instead, there are incalculable clan debts to be paid.Here Mah chronicles her journey from the rice villages of South China to her home in post-industrial England, through the Chinatowns of Western Canada where she grew up, to the isles and industry of Scotland where she now lives. As years pass and fires rage on, she becomes increasingly troubled by her ancestors' neglected graves. Her research on pollution gives way to growing eco-anxiety, culminating in a crisis of spiritual belief.A haunting blend of memoir, cultural history and environmental exploration, Red Pockets confronts the hungry ghosts of our neglected ancestors, while searching for an acceptable offering. What do we owe to past and future generations? What do we owe to the places that we inhabit?

Neue Schriften zum Staatsrecht

Künstliche Intelligenz darf den Richter unterstützen, ihn aber nicht ersetzen - doch wo verläuft diese Grenze konkret? Aus der Rechtsprechung des Bundesverfassungsgerichts lässt sich eine richterliche Pflicht zur eigenverantwortlichen Aufgabenwahrnehmung ableiten. Anhand zahlreicher Praxisbeispiele untersucht der Autor, wie der inhaltliche Einfluss algorithmischer und sonstiger fremder Erwägungen auf die Entscheidungsfindung mit der richterlichen Eigenverantwortung in Einklang zu bringen ist. Darauf aufbauend entwickelt die Arbeit ein Modell zur Abgrenzung zulässiger richterlicher Unterstützung von unzulässiger Ersetzung. Sie liefert damit Orientierung für Justiz, Gesetzgebung und Rechtswissenschaft in Zeiten wachsender Digitalisierung.

Zur Abgrenzung zwischen unzulässiger Ersetzung und zulässiger Unterstützung des menschlichen Richters
