I revere him' Michael LongleyFor fifty years the poet Paul Durcan has explored and questioned a world both real and imagined.Steeped in the goings-on of Ireland and preoccupied with its concerns, he has delighted, enriched and unsettled his readers.

One needs the ego to disappear so that I become you; I become the people walking up and down the street.’First published in 1967, Durcan remains the most of companionable of poets. His vivacity and ability to surprise has never been clearer than in this new selection of eighty of his finest poems, published in celebration of his 80th birthday.EDITED BY NIALL MACMONAGLEWITH AN INTRODUCTION BY COLM TOIBIN <br><br> Autorid: Paul Durcan, Niall MacMonagle, Colm Toibin <br>

That makes it the most important decision youll ever make. Choose well, and you can have a more rewarding, interesting life, and also help solve some of the worlds most pressing problems. Choose poorly, and you could waste decades. So what should you do? Most advice is based on no research, instead offering misleading platitudes like follow your passion. And it is surprisingly out-of-date, focusing on traditional paths rather than those most likely to thrive in an age of AI. Benjamin Todd is the founder of 80,000 Hours, a nonprofit that has spent over fifteen years researching how to have a fulfilling and impactful career. Now, he explores how anyone can find one, covering: What really makes for a dream job, and why finding it probably doesn't involve "following your passion" How to have a positive impact in your career, and why doing so might involve focusing on unregulated AI as much as on climate change Which roles are likely to be automated, and how to ensure yours isn't among them Youll come away with a plan to use your 80,000 hours in a way thats rewarding, AI-proof and fulfils your potential to make a difference.

NAMED ONE OF COSMOPOLITAN'S "15 BEST MARRIAGE BOOKS ALL COUPLES SHOULD READ."An accessible, transformative guide for couples seeking greater love, connection, and intimacy in our modern worldNate and Kaley Klemp were both successful in their careers, consulting for high-powered companies around the world. Their work as mindfulness and leadership experts, however, often fell to the wayside when they came home in the evening, only to end up fighting about fairness in their marriage. They believed in a model where each partner contributed equally and fairness ruled, but, in reality, they were finding that balance near impossible to achieve. From this frustration, they developed the idea of the 80/80 marriage, a new model for balancing career, family, and love. The 80/80 Marriage pushes couples beyond the limited idea of "fairness" toward a new model grounded on radical generosity and shared success, one that calls for each partner to contribute 80 percent to build the strongest possible relationship. Drawing from more than one hundred interviews with couples from all walks of life, stories from business and pop culture, scientific studies, and ancient philosophical insights, husband-and-wife team Nate and Kaley Klemp pinpoint exactly what's not working in modern marriage. Their 80/80 model of marriage provides practical, powerful solutions to transform your relationship and open up space for greater love and connection.

No literary form is more revealing, more spontaneous or more individual than a letter. P.D. James This inspiring and fascinating book is the first truly comprehensive study of womens letters ever published. Organised by subject matter, and covering a wide range of topics from politics, work and war, to childhood, love and sexual passion, 800 Years of Womens Letters reveals the depth, breadth and diversity of womens lives through the ages. Here Héloïse writes to Abelard of her undying devotion, Vita Sackville-West and Virginia Woolf correspond about life and writing, Queen Victoria complains to Robert Peel about the neglect of Buckingham Palace, and many more women write letters that reveal the compassion, humour, love and tenacity with which they confront the often difficult circumstances of everyday life. This is an intriguing insight, and a rare opportunity to read the real words of real women in their own intimate language. <br><br> Autorid: Olga Kenyon, P.D. James <br>

808s & Otherworlds: Memories, Remixes, & Mythologies announces a bold and incendiary new voice in Sean Avery Medlin. Against the backdrop of the Phoenix suburbs where they were raised, Medlin interrogates the effects of media misrepresentation on the performance of Black masculinity. Through storytelling rhymes and vulnerable narratives in conversation with both contemporary Hip-Hop culture and systemic anti-Blackness, 808s and Otherworlds pieces together a speculative reality where Blackfolk are simultaneously superhuman and dehumanised. From the gut-wrenchingly real stories of young lovers unmythed by segregation or former classmates appropriating Black culture, to the fantastic settings of Hip-Hop songs and comic characters, Medlin weaves a tapestry of worlds and otherworlds while composing a love letter to family and self, told to an undeniably energetic beat. <br><br> Autorid: Sean Avery Medlin <br>

Taking you behind the lens during a decade of significant social and political change, discover the remarkable transformation of British photography in the 1980s and its impact on art across the world This book will trace critical developments in photographic art in the UK, made by a diverse range of photographers in and around the Thatcher era (1976–1993). Rather than presenting a comprehensive history, the book will showcase more than 70 lens-based artists, and reveal numerous small histories, known and unknown, presented by a constellation of image makers (particularly Global Majority photographers), photography journals, photographer collectives, and theorists. The publication will also pay close attention to the intersection between photography and the British Black arts movement, and to the theoretical developments in photography and representation from the perspectives of postmodernism and cultural theory by British scholars from the period, namely John Tagg, Victor Burgin, and Stuart Hall. Photographers include Don McCullin, Martin Parr, Ingrid Pollard, Sunil Gupta, Wolfgang Tillmans, Keith Arnatt, Vanley Burke, Sirkka-Liisa Kontinnen, Marketa Luskacova, Joy Gregory, Paul Graham, Ajamu X, and many more key figures. <br><br> Autorid: Yasufumi Nakamori, Helen Little, Jasmine Kaur Chohan, Bilal Akkouche, Geoffrey Batchen, Derek Bishton, Taous R.

All three-dimensional objects can be experienced in two dimensions: it just takes some careful unpicking of the seams. Witty, comic, plaintive, touching, acerbic, droll, cavalier, caffeinated, irreverent, stringent: Austerities, the mind-altering substantial debut from Sam Riviere, seems to achieve the impossible in being all things at once. Initially conceived as a response to the 'austerity measures' implemented by the coalition government in 2011, the poems quickly began taking on a life in kind: 'cutting' themselves on levels of sentiment, structure and even subject matter. Not content to merely build a series of freethinking poems, these remarkable pieces seem eagerly and mischievously to analyze their moment of creation, then weigh their worth, then consign their excess to the recycling bin thereafter. Experience is speedy, the poems seem to say, so dizzyingly fast that the poetry will inevitably be running to catch up - often arriving at a scene the moment after the moment has gone. The effect is as funny and it is startling, beguiling as it is surprising, and makes Austerities a vivid reminder that deprivation, as Leonard Cohen put it, can be the mother of poetry. <br><br> Autorid: Sam Riviere <br>

Igast kirjeldusest paistab silma hooliv suhtumine igasse heinamaatükki ja metsaserva, lugupidamine paiksete elanike vastu, huvi ja oskus otsida mineviku jälgi." <br><br> Autorid: Juhani Püttsepp <br>

A young adult graphic novel that captures the complexities of the war in Ukraine, focusing on the siege of Mariupol (Feb ’22 – May ’22) and the brave people who stayed to defend their city against Russian forces as well as the resulting effects on global politics.A city ruined. In once quiet residential streets, two armies battle, driving people into cellars and basements with little food or water. No lights or heat. Dwindling medical supplies. Shells and bullets deliver cruel, random death to the young and old, men, women, and children. This is Mariupol, a Ukrainian city and early target of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Bordering Russian-occupied territory, the coastal city seemed doomed to a defeat that would come within days, if not hours. Could Mariupol, and Ukraine, survive? As Russian rockets threatened the city, Ukrainians resisted, and with a heroic combination of sacrifice and bravery, the besieged city endured . . . for months. But it all came at a steep cost.With compassion and his keen journalist’s eye, Sibert Honor creator Don Brown illuminates the horrors of Mariupol and the depredations of its people not seen in the city since World War II. He also shows that outside of Mariupol, the city’s agonies were mirrored by similar events occurring in towns and cities across Ukraine.83 Days in Mariupol reminds us that the bloody defiance shown at the Alamo, Dunkirk, Leningrad, and Thermopylae isn’t confined to the past but has a violent, modern presence. It is the story of senseless destruction, patriotism, and grit against long odds—a brutal battle whose consequences still reverberate across Ukraine and continue to reshape the global political landscape.Read more books by Don Brown:Run and Hide: How Jewish Youth Escaped the Holocaust In the Shadow of the Fallen Towers: The Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Days, Weeks, Months, and Years after the 9/11 AttacksFever Year: The Killer Flu of 1918The Unwanted: Stories of the Syrian Refugees <br><br> Autorid: Don Brown, Don Brown <br>

A warning to humankind from one of the worlds greatest physicists 'What drives these pages is the guilty conscience of my profession, theoretical physics. My sole aim is to help avert what seems to me to be the unintended, yet scarcely avoidable, end point of the current politics of the governments we have elected: nuclear war.' The world is rearming and embroiled in endless conflict. The Doomsday Clock has now been set to 85 seconds to midnight, with the risk of nuclear war the highest it has ever been. Why do we always fail to learn from the past? In this urgent book, acclaimed physicist Carlo Rovelli reframes the history of nuclear weapons: from how the atomic bomb was born to why Germany didn't build it and why the US used it, to the narrowly averted disasters of the Cold War and the political brinkmanship careering out of control today. As he grapples with the legacy of his scientific forebears, Rovelli spotlights the true nature of the decisions being made by leaders around the world today. A timely and ardent warning, this searing reckoning with short-sighted politics is essential reading for anyone seeking sanity at our moment of greatest peril. <br><br> Autorid: Carlo Rovelli <br>

Much downplayed, even ignored, short but sharp military confrontation between India and Pakistan, fought in the course of less than four days of May 2025 was an affair that saw the deployment of some of most advanced weapons systems currently in operation. Widely mis-declared into a mere continuation of the Kashmir Conflict, a ‘large-scale cross-border skirmish’, a ‘drone battle’ that ended with both sides announcing a ceasefire and a victory, ‘actually’ ending when the administration of US President Donald Trump played a deal-broker, a peace-maker, and saviour of both Asian nations, it is going to determine relations between the two nuclear powers for decades in advance.On 22 April 2025, a terrorist attack outside Pahalgam in Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir killed 26 civilians, mostly Hindu tourists. A Pakistan-based, UN-designated terrorist group first claimed responsibility, then denied involvement, while official Islamabad – which plotted this affair with the aim of drawing world-wide attention to the Kashmir issue – declared the massacre a ‘false flag operation’ orchestrated by India. The government in New Delhi reacted by retaliatory measures before, after finding undisputable evidence about Pakistan’s involvement, early on 7 May 2025, launching a series of retaliatory strikes on camps of multiple terror organisations. Insistent on dictating India’s foreign policy, on preventing such counter-strikes through threats with deployment of nuclear weapons, and mythology about invincibility of its armed services, Islamabad then miscalculated: it launched attacks against civilian-, military-, and religious objects in Indian-administered Jammu, using mortars, artillery rockets and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).Much to Pakistan’s surprise, India reacted by launching a carefully orchestrated, measured operation against Pakistani air defences. Over the following two days, Pakistan continued escalating its ‘drone war’. However, the mass of its weaponry was shot down, rendering its retaliation entirely ineffective. At that point, Islamabad ordered ballistic missile attacks on 26 targets in India. New Delhi reacted with a devastating missile strike that, in matter of 90 minutes, disabled multiple major command centres, blocked the runways on several PAF air bases, and demolished hangars housing some of most important aircraft of its opponent. As a cup on cake, India completed its methodical onslaught by targeting at least one, possibly two underground nuclear weapons storage facilities, clearly demonstrating its superior position.While certainly fuelled by the conflict over Kashmir, the India-Pakistan War of May 2025 was much more, and its outcome is going to dictate the relations between two nuclear powers for decades in advance. For the first time in 80-years-long history of enmity between the two nations, India not only dared to openly strike back at Pakistan in reaction to a terror attack the latter has instigated, but called its persistent threats with nuclear retaliation a bluff, neutralised the country’s air defences and ability to retaliate, forced the PAF away from the international border thus bringing the IAF into a position to strike selected targets, and forced Islamabad to request an end to hostilities. Although Pakistani government – skilfully supported by Chinese propaganda warfare, and usual Western favouritism and ignorance – successfully covered-up the extension of its defeat, even declared itself for victorious, relations between the two countries are never going to be the same again.Richly illustrated by custom-drawn diagrams and colour profiles, the book 88-Hours War is providing full backgrounds and context to this little-understood conflict, a detailed description of the involved technology, and a blow-by-blow account of the fighting from 7 to 10 May 2025. As such, it is an indispensable source of reference for both professionals and enthusiasts alike. The short but fierce war between India and Pakistan fought in May 2025 has not only seen the deployment of some of most modern weapons systems, but determined relations between the two arch-rivals for decades in advance.
