The Federalist Papers

Hamilton, Madison, and Jay's Essential Writings on the U.S. Constitution and American Liberty

How The Solar System Shaped Human History - And May Help Save Our Planet 'A stunning history of how we've come to understand environmental change on Earth...A rich, eye-opening tapestry, and beautifully told!' LEWIS DARTNELL 'Masterfully shows that our understanding of some of the world's greatest threats has come from watching the stars' LUKE KEMP Our solar system is an extraordinary place where asteroids careen off course and solar winds hurl charged particles across billions of miles of space. Yet we seldom consider how these events, so immense in scale, influence our own fragile blue planet. In Ripples on the Cosmic Ocean, Dagomar Degroot traces the surprising threads linking humanity to the rest of the solar system. He reveals how the shifting sands of other planets have shaped geopolitics, spurred scientific and cultural innovation, and encouraged new ideas about the emergence and fate of life. Martian dust storms altered the trajectory of the Cold War and inspired fantastical stories about alien civilisations. Comet impacts on Jupiter led to the first planetary defence strategy. And volcanic eruptions spewed sulfuric acid into Venus's atmosphere, exposing the existential risks of global warming. But just as we expand the boundaries of space exploration, cosmic environments are becoming increasingly vulnerable to human activity. Yet, they may also hold the key to slowing down the climate crisis back on Earth. Ripples on the Cosmic Ocean urges us to develop an interplanetary environmentalism across a vast mosaic of entangled worlds and to consider the profound connections that bind us to the cosmos and each other. 'This dazzling book is an enormous contribution, challenging us to re-envision the universe and our place in it' SARAH STEWART JOHNSON 'Boldly taken environmental history where no historian has gone before...The book brims over with both interesting anecdotes and arresting perspectives on our place within the cosmos' J.R. McNEILL

How The Solar System Shaped Human History – And May Help Save Our Planet

Ripples on the Cosmic Ocean

A powerful new anthology that redefines ourunderstanding of existentialism and argues for itscontemporary relevance A Penguin Classic In the aftermath of the Second World War, a group of intellectuals gathered to discuss urgent questions of existence, commitment, racism, colonialism and feminism. Their ideas would continue to shape debates throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. This major new anthology gathers the key texts of existentialism, and those of the movement’s nineteenth-century intellectual precursors, along with other works previously neglected in overviews and anthologies of the movement. Incorporating the writings of Simone de Beauvoir, Jean-Paul Sartre and Frantz Fanon, alongside selections from Søren Kierkegaard, Friedrich Nietzsche, Sigmund Freud and Martin Heidegger, it significantly expands and redefines our understanding of what existentialism means, and why it matters. Penguin Classics is the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world, representing a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

The Penguin Book of Existentialist Philosophy

A globetrotting, laugh-out-loud funny history for grown-ups from the multi-million copy bestselling author. It is a truth universally acknowledged that the rich and powerful always look after their own and the working people are always revolting. But every now and again, a new group actually manages to seize power, and it changes history. In his new book, Revolting, bestselling Horrible Histories author Terry Deary takes readers on a hilarious and eye-opening journey through some of the most significant rebellions and uprisings that have happened through the ages, including: <ul><li>Ivaylo, the Bulgarian swineherd who managed to fight off the Mongols, slay the Tsar and marry his widow in the space of a year.</li><li>Spartacus, a touch more modest in his aims, who mainly wanted to go home to see his mum.</li><li>The two suffragists who posted themselves by Royal Mail to see the prime minister (a first-class idea, though Downing Street declined the parcel).</li></ul> From the peasants to the slaves, the martyrs to the mutineers, Revolting celebrates the resilience and determination of those who dared to challenge the status quo through the ages. Praise for A History of Britain in Ten Enemies: 'If you could take just one history book to a desert island, this would be it. It is laugh out loud funny' Conn Iggulden, bestselling author of the Emperor series 'Ram-packed with mind-blowing facts, hilarious characters, and little-known tales' Dan Schreiber, author of The Theory of Everything Else 'A book for anyone who ever wished there was a Horrible Histories for grown-ups' Kate Lister, author of A Curious History of Sex 'Not just an eye-opener, but a mind-opener' Tracy Borman, author of The Private Lives of the Tudors

A riotous history of rebellions and revolutions

Revolting

A Financial Times Book of the Year No other phenomenon has shaped human history as decisively as capitalism. It structures how we live and work, how we think about ourselves and others, how we organise our politics. Sven Beckert situates the story of capitalism within the largest conceivable geographical and historical framework in this fascinating new book. Capitalism, argues Beckert, was born global. Emerging from merchant communities across Asia, Africa and Europe, capitalism's radical recasting of economic life rooted itself only gradually. Then it burst onto the world scene, as European states and merchants built a powerful alliance that would propel them across the oceans. This epic drama corresponded at no point to an idealised dream of free markets. All along, state-backed institutions and imperial expansions shaped its dynamics. Capitalism decentres the European perspective, highlighting agency, resistance, innovation and ruthless coercion around the world through to the present with the rise of Asian economies, particularly China. Sven Beckert doesn't merely add up capitalism's debits and credits in this monumental book, but allows us to think afresh about the past to help us re-imagine the future.

'An adventure to rival David Grann's Lost City of Z, and a riveting exposé of the plunder that still fills the world's top art museums' Zeke Faux, author or Number Go Up 'Immaculately researched and beautifully written, a gripping real-life exposé of the ugly deals that underpin the trade in beautiful objects' Oliver Bullough, author of Moneyland An unbelievable table of greed, looted treasures and stolen history in the world's biggest art heist. In the shattered aftermath of Cambodia's civil war, temples that had stood for centuries were found ransacked - sacred sculptures hacked from pedestals, towering statues of Hindu gods and priceless relics of the Khmer Empire vanished. At the centre of this vast plunder, British expatriate Douglas Latchford, whose decades-long obsession fuelled one of the most audacious cultural thefts of modern times. From the Killing Fields of the Khmer Rouge to the marble galleries of New York and London and the private collections of the rich and famous, The Man Who Stole the Gods unravels a breathtaking story of power, greed and corruption, and asks what you take from a nation when you steal its past. Drawing on years of investigation and exclusive access to the stories' key players - from temple looters and traffickers to the investigators and archaeologists fighting to bring masterpieces home - award-winning writer Matthew Campbell reveals how the treasures of one of the world's greatest civilizations were stolen, sold and finally found. From the author of Dead in the Water, called 'a masterpiece' by the New York Times

The Man Who Stole the Gods

The bold, inspiring, and empowering new book on the possibility of modern womanhood - helping you to ditch the labels, find your voice, and reclaim your confidence. 'Ashley is a much-needed force.' Jameela Jamil 'The book I've been waiting for my whole life.' Bryony Gordon 'A smart, brave and unapologetic reclaiming of female power.' Katie Piper OBE ------- Bossy. Frigid. Spinster. Sl*t. Mumsy. Milf. Bimbo. The English language has a seemingly infinite number of judgemental and hypocritical words to describe women and their life choices. We can't win, no matter what we do. In BIMBO, Ashley James unpacks the labels that box women in, and the systems that keep them there. A fierce advocate for women's rights, whether on ITV's This Morning or online, Ashley draws on raw personal stories, cultural analysis, and sharp humour to unpack the systems that profit from women's insecurity. From 'bossy' little girls, 'tarty' teens, to mothers who 'let themselves go', and 'left-on-the-shelf' single women, Ashley asks a radical question: What if we stopped trying to be acceptable, and started being free? Bold, honest, and deeply validating, this book is a rallying cry for every woman who's ever felt too much - or not enough. This is a call to women to stop shrinking, stop competing, and start rising - together. A book to be shared, discussed, and cherished, BIMBO is the powerful and empowering must-read and a beacon of hope for a better future. Praise for BIMBO: 'Raw and gloriously unapologetic ... a rallying cry for every woman' Carol Vorderman, award-winning broadcaster and writer 'Pulls apart the issues facing the modern woman and puts them back together again with brilliantly considered thought and context. Ignore this Bimbo at your peril.' Ellie Taylor, comedian and writer 'Honest, brave and fiercely validating' Alex Light, bestselling author of You Are Not a Before Picture 'Essential reading for every woman' Em Clarkson, activist, presenter, and author 'Whip smart' Red Magazine

From the award-winning and Sunday Times bestselling author of Material World, a story that will take you from ancient civilizations, empire and globalisation through to the most influential geopolitical issue of our times. The story of trade is the story of humanity. From the copper in Mesopotamian ploughs to the silicon atoms within the chip inside your smartphone, intricate global trading networks have evolved over millennia to fulfil the distinctly human desire to buy and sell. Today, the volume of trade bestriding the planet is unprecedented. Yet, as fractures in the global order emerge - from an era of globalisation and untrammelled flows of goods and money to a new world of restrictions, intervention and, possibly, war - understanding this fundamental shift to the dominant economic consensus is more important than ever. Ed Conway tells this extraordinary story through these three commonplace products - bread, cloth and cars. With a compelling blend of economic history and first-hand access to key figures and institutions, he takes us from policy treaties to ground level to show us the people who make, ship and sometimes smuggle the products we buy on a daily basis. Discover the hidden, shifting trade world behind everything you see around you.

The Ties That Bound Our Past and Could Unravel Our Future

Trade World

A stunning memoir that transforms our understanding of a generation born at a key turning point in world history 'Very moving, very powerful . . . an extraordinarily interesting life' AMOL RAJAN 'A rough Zimbabwean equivalent of Jung Chang's Wild Swans' Financial Times 'Beautifully written . . . a truly compelling read' Spectator 'Intimate and epic' SATHNAM SANGHERA In my home country, they call me a 'bornfree'. Simukai Chigudu was one of the first generation to be born after the end of colonial rule in Zimbabwe. Growing up he heard stories about his grandfather's murder by the Rhodesian regime, how his father had been imprisoned and tortured as a student before joining the war of independence, and how his mother had thrown off the strictures of the past to build a successful career helping other women do the same. Yet Simukai's early life was also steeped in British tradition. With his classmates he sang English folk songs, read Shakespeare, played cricket. Then, in 2002, he was one of thousands to leave the country as it descended into political violence and economic collapse. His new home: a boarding school in the north of England. What followed was a culture shock that unravelled his understanding of the world, his family and himself. Chasing Freedom is his profound and remarkably moving story - that of a boy shaped through his parents' buried trauma by the great currents of late-twentieth century history. It is the story of a family haunted by the cause of liberation, and of a new generation, still searching for their promised freedom. 'A work of real power and beauty as well as disarming truthfulness' AMIA SRINIVASAN, author of The Right to Sex 'Utterly captivating . . . told with such clarity and precision that I forgot I was reading' DINA NAYERI, author of The Ungrateful Refugee 'Will teach you more about the legacies of colonialism than a hundred op-eds or a dozen textbooks' SATHNAM SANGHERA, author of Empireland 'Simukai Chigudu writes compellingly, lucidly and beautifully . . . an eye-opener' ZEINAB BADAWI, author of An African History of Africa

Two expert thinkers tackle one of the most difficult and divisive issues of our times: assisted dying 'Absolutely fantastic. It gives you a deep sense of the morality, the legality, the technicality. Invaluable' XAND VAN TULLEKEN 'Nuanced and thoughtful' OBSERVER As pressure grows to legalise assisted dying in the UK, this book illuminates the legal and ethical fault lines at the heart of the debate. Lady Hale, former president of the Supreme Court, argues that everyone should have the freedom to decide the time and manner of their own death. Drawing on real cases in real courts, she explores how the law might establish e­ffective safeguards while preserving an individual's right to decide for themselves when their suffering becomes unbearable. Rowan Williams, former Archbishop of Canterbury, sits in opposition, contending that no such right can ever be absolute, or unqualified. He raises moral and practical concerns about the protection of vulnerable communities - especially those living with disabilities - the pressures facing an already overstretched NHS and the risk that assisted dying could become a substitute for properly funded palliative care. Both confront the decisions we all must face: who should be eligible for assisted dying; how should the programme be authorised; and what modern medicine could, and should, provide. Ultimately, they turn to a deeper challenge: how a public healthcare system can universally uphold dignity, and what it would truly mean to offer us all what we profoundly deserve - a good death. Published in conjunction with Intelligence Squared, the world's leading curator of debate, this book is part of the Think Again series: short books that present two contrasting but equally persuasive views in a single volume

How did Christianity grow into an international faith that shaped the world as we know it? 'Remarkable ... A joy to read' JOSEPHINE QUINN, author of How the World Made the West 'Dazzling ... Will change how you see Rome, and Christianity, for ever' CATHERINE NIXEY, author of Heresy 'One of the most important books on ancient history in many years' HARRY SIDEBOTTOM, author of Warrior of Rome Rome's Age of Revolution corrects the triumphalist narrative that the Christian message was so persuasive, and indeed superior, that people converted in huge numbers, abandoning their pagan beliefs, thereby turning a small, persecuted sect into the state religion of the Roman Empire. Tim Whitmarsh shows that Christianity would never have succeeded if it had not taken advantage of the infrastructure and culture of the Roman Empire; in turn the new religion was indelibly shaped and transformed by Roman beliefs and ideas, especially those circulating in the Greek-speaking, or Hellenistic, eastern parts of the empire. This radical transformation, Tim argues, can only be described as a revolution. And the consequences are with us to this day. 'Riveting - incisive and stylishly written' EDITH HALL, author of Aristotle's Way 'Fascinating and powerful throughout' ANDREW PETTEGREE, author of The Book at War 'Refreshingly innovative ...
