Freeman Colin: The Mad and the Brave / B

The Mad and the Brave

The Untold Story of Ukraine’s Foreign Legion

Palgrave Studies in Modern Monarchy

Transatlantic Monarchisms in the Americas and Europe, 1812-1868

'Highly recommend - practical and full of human wisdom' FINANCIAL TIMES 'Brimming with ideas to transform the future' KATE RAWORTH, author of DOUGHNUT ECONOMICS 'An act of radical hope, radical listening and radical humility . . . I loved it' RORY STEWART Work, for decades, has been debated and discussed as a narrow economic category. Instead, Hilary Cottam identifies work as a cultural force at the heart of good lives, strong communities and a sense of a shared national destiny. Crucially, in these dramatic times, she shows how we can shape this force to meet technological change, our ecological crisis and the challenges of the world's deep injustices. We can create a work revolution. Ambitious but rooted in the ideas of everyday experts - real workers from all walks of life - this is a realistic and hopeful book. Hilary Cottam has crossed the UK and the USA; she's spent time in communities considered by outsiders as 'left behind' and in places at the centre of financial and technological power. Drawing on a fascinating range of sources - historians, trade unionists, business leaders, philosophers and most originally, hours of her imaginative workshops with workers - Hilary Cottam boldly asks: how can we redesign work? Our challenges - political, social, economic and environmental - are tangled and growing. But so are the imaginative solutions. In this exciting, inspiring and optimistic book, Hilary shows us how we could work differently and live better. 'So valuable . . . Hilary Cottam proposes a bold new vision of what the principles underlying 'good work' might be' MARIANA MAZZUCATO, UCL professor and author of MISSION ECONOMY 'Timely . . . guides the changes needed' CARLOTA PEREZ 'Exposes what motivates workers today - not the things most business leaders think - and shows how new thinking would benefit us all. Compelling' MARTHA LANE FOX 'Urgent, compelling and ultimately hopeful . . . Necessary and Inspiring' CAROLINE LUCAS, Green Party MP and author of ANOTHER ENGLAND 'Cottam is the humane revolutionary our turbulent century needs - and this book our roadmap to a better future' JONATHAN FREEDLAND, author of THE ESCAPE ARTIST

'The humane revolutionary our turbulent century needs’ Jonathan Freedland

The Work We Need

A fairer, healthier, more caring and sustainable society is entirely within our grasp. This book shows us the way. How do we ensure that everyone has good health and is cared for when in need?How do we provide education that allows every child to flourish?How do we ensure safety, justice and a healthy environment now and for future generations?How can we finally solve the problems of poverty and inequality that drive all the others?Kate Pickett is one of the most renowned thinkers and leaders in social science. Her life's work has been to identify the underlying causes behind society's key challenges and how to solve them. In The Good Society she draws on the deepest insights and the strongest evidence produced by social science over the last three decades to present a roadmap for change. Ultimately, she shows that solving the fundamental problems of poverty and equality would enhance the quality of life for us all.

And How We Get There

The Good Society

After Nations explores 'a generalised state of crisis' that afflicts the nation-state worldwide. In an effort to understand this crisis, Rana Dasgupta charts the development of the global nation state project from the Enlightenment to the present, its ongoing value unquestioned-to our detriment.

The Forever Home

The story of Scottish knitting: the first critical history and analysis of a local craft turned international icon.

From Fair Isle patterning to Pringle jumpers, Scottish knitwear is internationally renowned and instantly recognisable. This open access study unpicks the distinctive place of knitting in the Scottish landscape, economy, and culture from the 19th century to today.

Recent reappraisals of the industrial revolution and traditional craft economies, and the recent revival of hobby knitting during the Covid-19 pandemic, have raised new questions about the roles of social communities, sustainability and women's domestic work in the textile industries. Tracing its story from raw material to final product, from home-spun clothes and crafts to luxury markets and industrial-scale production, Knitting in Scotland investigates the Scottish knitting trade's remarkable survival across two centuries of economic and cultural modernisation.
