Howard Beth: Like Our Lives Depend on It

Like Our Lives Depend on It

A Story of Antiracist Solidarity from a Coal Miner’s Daughter

Fake News, True Story

Becoming a Voice for Young People

You Don't Need a Dick to DJ

This is a book about poverty but it does not study the poor and the powerless; instead it studies those who manage poverty. It sheds light on how powerful institutions control "capital," or circuits of profit and investment, as well as "truth," or authoritative knowledge about poverty. Such dominant practices are challenged by alternative paradigms of development, and the book details these as well. Using the case of microfinance, the book participates in a set of fierce debates about development - from the role of markets to the secrets of successful pro-poor institutions. Based on many years of research in Washington D.C., Bangladesh, and the Middle East, Poverty Capital also grows out of the author's undergraduate teaching to thousands of students on the subject of global poverty and inequality.

Sport is increasingly becoming an area of ethical ambiguity in which wider social problems are played out in a concentrated form. Social Problems in Sport provides a theoretical framework for exploring sport and deviance.

Bodies, Sports and Social Problems

Out of the cocaine-fuelled, rock'n'roll debauchery of the 1970s came an iconic collaboration between an influential rocker and a visionary filmmaker. From The Last Waltz to The Wolf of Wall Street and The Irishman, the creative legacy of Robbie Robertson and Martin Scorcese has spanned decades. Filled with high octane exploits, bacchanalian parties and untold amounts of debauchery, this is the intimate and unvarnished behind-the-scenes story of a partnership that has shaped American culture like no other. PRAISE FOR TESTIMONY 'A book of memories and wonders, a personal testament of a magical time in American music from someone who was there, at the center of it all . . . Robbie brings you along with him, keeps you right by his side first to last, just the way his songs do, drawing you close, spellbound by his easy sorcery. You can feel the music in every word' Martin Scorsese 'Robust, wry, gritty and wise' Wall Street Journal 'Confident and well oiled. At times it has the mythic sweep of an early Terrence Malick movie' New York Times 'Captivating... this is essential reading' Rolling Stone 'Robertson is an immensely capable storyteller and a keen observer' New Yorker

'A welcome look at the life of a fascinating rider and man' Cycling Plus 'Maurice has lived a hell of a life. The world needs to hear about it' Ned Boulting 'This book is an inspiration to those who want to achieve in both sport and life' Phil Liggett MBE Maurice Burton rose above racism in British society and sport to triumph over adversity. This is the long-awaited, authorised biography of a ground-breaking British cyclist. On a still summer's evening at Leicester's Saffron Lane Velodrome in June 1974, Maurice Burton defeated an elite field to become Britain's first ever Black cycling champion. For his father, it was a moment of intense pride; Rennal arrived in 1948 from Jamaica and made his home in South London. As his 18-year-old son climbed onto the podium, boos rang out around the stadium. The crowd's response that day was typical of the racism and exclusion experienced by Burton. After being overlooked for Olympic selection despite beating those selected, he moved to Belgium to race professionally on the 'six-day' circuit across the continent, becoming the first Black six-day rider for over 75 years. This authorised biography traces Maurice's experiences as the child of a Windrush-generation father and an English mother growing up in London, before moving across to Europe and his eventual return to South London in 1984, where he became a successful business owner and community leader. It rightly places Maurice Burton at the forefront of the British sporting narrative as a pioneer in our collective cultural history.
