Tokmak S: What Can Be Learned from the
Lehman Brothers Case Through the Lens o

What Can Be Learned from the Lehman Brothers Case Through the Lens of Principal Agent and Stewardship Theory?

What happens when a president convinces the world he might just do the unthinkable? In US grand strategy and the Madman Theory, James D. Boys argues that projecting calculated irrationality can terrify adversaries into submission, but at enormous risk. From Nixon's secret Cold War gambit to Trump's chaotic, tweet-driven diplomacy, he explores how these two leaders weaponised unpredictability to keep allies guessing and enemies off balance. But where does strategy end and madness begin? In an era where perception can dictate power, unpredictability becomes a weapon and fear its sharpest edge. This book reveals how calculated chaos reshapes diplomacy, destabilises norms and forces nations to question whether the next move is genius or catastrophe.

Us Grand Strategy and the Madman Theory

<h4>The first non-fiction book to explore the joys and complexities of adult sibling relationships</h4>'Whether you're a sibling or an only child, Catherine Carr's book will leave you wiser and feeling more at home in the world.' Oliver Burkeman, author of&nbsp;Four Thousand Weeks
For most of us, our sibling relationships are the longest we will ever have. Whether loving or fraught, competitive or codependent, these bonds shape us in lasting ways.

In this heartfelt, judgment-free book, Catherine Carr invites us to look at our brothers and sisters beyond the labels assigned in childhood. Combining real-life stories with expert insight, she explores birth-order stereotypes, favouritism, trauma, blended families, only children, siblings with additional needs, and the pain of estrangement and bereavement.

Thinking about these relationships more deeply may help us better understand ourselves and the world around us.

Interwoven with candid interviews with sibling pairs taken from her hit podcast,&nbsp;Relatively,&nbsp;such as Chris and Xand van Tulleken, Johnny and Lillie Flynn, Nick and Gill Hornby, Manni and Reuben Coe, and more
'Truly enlightening, charming and moving. I've learned so much...but I'm still angry with my sister for reading my diary!' Jane Garvey

'It is our least discussed and most formative relationship and Catherine's work is a hilarious, moving and fascinating guide through it.' Chris and Xand van Tulleken
'Eye-opening and true. I wouldn't be who I am today if it weren't for my brother.' Gok Wan

Understanding Our Sibling Relationships as Adults

Who's The Favourite?

Joe and Steve are two brothers from a very wealthy family on Long Island. But their paths diverge at a young age. Joe is CEO of the large family business, while Steve prefers wine, women and song as an international playboy. But their paths will cross in a way they didn't expect.

"Written with clarity, confidence and emotional intelligence, Two Brothers balances elegant storytelling with raw honesty. The narrative flaws effortlessly between intimate personal moments and broader social commentary creating a reading experience that feels both entertaining and meaningful. The prose is accessible yet thoughtful, making the appealing to both casual readers and lovers of contemporary literary fiction."
Tatiana Laporte (verified reader)

The Fortune Flip

From Robin Gow, the award-winning author of Dear Mothman, comes a gripping middle-grade novel in verse about a boy who digs up and loses control of a saber-toothed tiger Jasper’s favorite person is his older brother, Callan. They go on fossil-finding missions and stay up late while their parents work nights. Callan even helped Jasper pick out his new name when he came out as trans. But Callan starts to grow distant and leaves for college without taking Jasper on a promised fossil dig. Jasper feels abandoned—and angry. Who needs Callan? He will dig by himself, in his backyard. As he digs, he hears a voice: the bones of a saber-toothed tiger. He’s buried deep, and he wants Jasper to DIG. Jasper is sure a discovery like this could change the world, or at least get Callan to text him back. But as the saber-toothed tiger finds freedom, Jasper realizes he may have unleashed a monster that no one was ready for, and that anger can empower you—or destroy you.

Henry Heckelbeck Goes Undercover: Volume 20

'A curious-minded and subtle intervention in the politics of the countryside'Sunday Times'Galbraith spent three years investigating the truth about rural Britain and how we treat it.Uncommon Ground is thebrilliant result'Daily Telegraph'Very funny. Acutely observed. An attempt to look beyond the usual clichés of country life'Observer"Brilliant. This book is a sort of necessary clever trespass itself, on everyone's notions about 'our land'."Country Life"Filled with voices from people who don't always make the headlines in the UK land access debate."ScotsmanThe countryside is under increasing pressure and people, the science shows, need nature. Access to the countryside is essential for our health, our happiness and our future. But does nature need us?In January 2023, the largest land access demonstration since the 1930s took place on a bright wintery morning on Dartmoor. The access movement demands that the countryside be thrown open. This, they argue, would help nature by giving the public the opportunity to hold farmers and wealthy landowners to account.But would it really work for Britain's growing population to spill out across the countryside, and is access quite as restricted as we are led to believe?In Uncommon Ground, Patrick Galbraith takes us on an extraordinary tour of rural Britain, from the Hebrides to Devon, and from Anglo-Saxon England to the present day. To uncover the truth and fully understand our deep connection with the land, he meets farmers, Irish Travellers, politicians, salmon poachers, and the nation's most-hated landowners, as well as activists calling for a total abolition of the right to own land.In his much-celebrated style, Galbraith works hard to listen to those who often don't get listened to. This raking survey of our fast-changing country, reveals the essence of rural Britain's soul. Uncommon Ground argues that what matters is not greater access but how we engage with the land and demands that landowners give us more opportunities to do so, while also giving endangered wildlife the right to tranquility.
