Clarel: A Poem and Pilgrimage in the Holy Land I

The Digital Republic is the definitive guide to the great political question of our time: how can freedom and democracy survive in a world of powerful digital technologies? • Not long ago, the tech industry was widely admired and the internet was regarded as a tonic for freedom and democracy. Not anymore. Every day, the headlines blaze with reports of racist algorithms, data leaks, and social media platforms festering with falsehood and hate. In The Digital Republic, acclaimed author Jamie Susskind argues that these problems are not the fault of a few bad apples at the top of the industry. They are the result of our failure to govern technology properly, a failure derived from decades of muddled ideas and wishful thinking • The Digital Republic charts a new course, with new legal standards, new public bodies and institutions, new duties on platforms, new rights and regulators, and new codes of conduct for people in the tech industry

Hailed as Newby's 'masterpiece', Love and War in the Apennines is the gripping real-life story of Newby's imprisonment and escape from an Italian prison camp during World War II • After the Italian Armistice of 1943, Eric Newby escaped from the prison camp in which he'd been held for a year. He evaded the German army by hiding in the caves and forests of Fontanellato, in Italy's Po Valley. Against this picturesque backdrop, he was sheltered for three months by an informal network of Italian peasants, who fed, supported and nursed him, before his eventual recapture • ‘Love and War in the Apennines’ is Newby's tribute to the selfless and courageous people who were to be his saviours and companions during this troubled time and of their bleak and unchanging way of life

В конце апреля 1945 года на Берлин обрушилась страшная буря. Разрывные снаряды били по зданиями, а жители некогда славного города, в который вошли неудержимые войска Востока и Запада, укрывались в темных подвалах – как и фюрер в своем бункере. Битва за Берлин стала ключевым моментом в истории и ознаменовала конец смертоносного режима. Во время холодной войны противоборствующие сверхдержавы разделили поверженный город на две части • В книге Berlin. Life and Loss in the City That Shaped the Century историк и автор бестселлеров Синклер Маккей, опираясь на ранее не публиковавшиеся рассказы очевидцев, рисует подлинный портрет города, опустошенного идеологией, войной и горем. Однако чтобы полностью понять падение Берлина необходимо подробно изучить предшествующие ему годы и проследить за его разделом

На протяжении всего XX века Берлин находился в самом центре стремительно меняющегося мира. Разные эпизоды из его истории принято рассматривать в отрыве друг от друга. Город, прошедший через страдания Первой мировой войны; космополитический центр науки, культуры и свободы; столица страны, переживающей резкий экономический спад; заставшая приход нацистов к власти, ужасы и разрушения Второй мировой войны и геноцид; город, разделенный надвое двумя конкурирующими идеологиями. Все эти эпохи сменяли друг друга, но жители Берлина просто продолжали жить – или выживать – так же, как и раньше. Подлинную историю немецкой столицы расскажут не правители, а те, кто ходил по ее улицам • В своей книге Berlin. Life and Loss in the City That Shaped the Century историк и автор бестселлеров Синклер Маккей проливает свет на жизни самых известных обитателей города, от ученого-идеалиста Альберта Эйнштейна до нацистского архитектора Альберта Шпеера, используя рассказы очевидцев

In the frontier town of Springfield in 1651, peculiar things begin to happen. Precious food spoils, livestock ails and property vanishes. People suffer fits and are plagued by strange visions and dreams. Children sicken and die. As tensions rise, rumours spread of witches and heretics, and the community becomes tangled in a web of spite, distrust and denunciation. The finger of suspicion falls on a young couple struggling to make a home and feed their children: Hugh Parsons the irascible brickmaker and his troubled wife, Mary. It will be their downfall • The Ruin of All Witches tells the dark, real-life folktale of witch-hunting in a remote Massachusetts plantation. These were the turbulent beginnings of colonial America, when English settlers' dreams of love and liberty, of founding a 'city on a hill', gave way to paranoia and terror, enmity and rage

From the acclaimed historian of global empire, the dramatic story of how steam power reshaped our cities and our seas, and forged a new world order • Steam power transformed our world, initiating the complex, resource-devouring industrial system the consequences of which we live with today. It revolutionized work and production, but also the ease and cost of movement over land and water. The result was to throw open vast areas of the world to the rampaging expansion of Europeans and Americans on a scale previously unimaginable • Unlocking the World is the captivating history of the great port cities which emerged as the bridgeheads of this new steam-driven economy, reshaping not just the trade and industry of the regions around them but their culture and politics as well

Inside the corrupt and secret business of global shipping, the explosive true story of a notorious international fraud and murder • In July 2011, the oil tanker Brillante Virtuoso was drifting through the treacherous Gulf of Aden when a crew of pirates attacked and set her ablaze in a devastating explosion. But when David Mockett, a maritime surveyor working for Lloyd's of London, inspected the damaged vessel, he was left with more questions than answers. Soon after his inspection, he was murdered • Dead in the Water is a shocking expose of the criminal inner-workings of international shipping, an old-world industry at the backbone of our global economy. Through first-hand accounts of those who lived the hijacking - from members of the ship's crew and witnesses to the attacks, to the ex-London detectives turned private investigators seeking to solve Mockett's murder - award-winning reporters Matthew Campbell and Kit Chellel piece together the astounding truth behind one of the most brazen financial frauds in history

A glittering and gruesome history of the body in the Middle Ages, loved by critics and readers alike • Just like us, medieval men and women worried about growing old, got blisters and indigestion, fell in love and had children. And yet their lives were full of miraculous and richly metaphorical experiences radically different to our own, unfolding in a world where deadly wounds might be healed overnight by divine intervention, or the heart of a king, plucked from his corpse, could be held aloft as a powerful symbol of political rule • In this richly-illustrated and unusual history, Jack Hartnell uncovers the fascinating ways in which people thought about, explored and experienced their physical selves in the Middle Ages, from Constantinople to Cairo and Canterbury
