  In this radiant work of creative nonfiction, internationally beloved novelist Val McDermid delivers a dazzling ode to a lost world, ruminating on a single winter in her life as she journeys into the heart of the season’s ever-evolving community-based traditions 
    
  Val McDermid has always had a soft spot for winter: the bitter clarity of a crisp cold day, the crunch of frost on fallen leaves, and the chance to be enveloped in big jumpers and thick socks. 
    
  In Winter, McDermid takes us on an adventure through the season, from the frosty streets of Edinburgh to the windblown Scottish coast, from Bonfire Night and Christmas to Burns Night and Up Helly Aa. Recalling in parallel memories from her own childhood—of skating over frozen lakes and carving a “neep” (rutabaga) for Halloween to being taken to see her first real Christmas tree in the town square—McDermid offers a wise and enchanting meditation on winter and its ever-changing, sometimes ephemeral, traditions. 
    
  A hygge-filled journey through winter nights, McDermid reminds us that it is a time of rest, retreat and creativity, for scribbling in notebooks and settling in beside the fire. A treat for the hunkering-down, post-holiday reading season, Winter is a charming and cozy celebration of the year’s idle months from one of Scotland’s best-loved writers.

  THE FUTURE OF TRUTH (AND HOW TO GET THERE) 
  Lindley's groundbreaking book explains misinformation, disinformation, why we've fallen so hard for them both, and how every one of us can fight back. 
  We need to talk about 'the truth'. We receive huge amounts of information packed into the stories that we see, hear and read. They change our minds. They cast doubt, divide us and have got us into so much trouble. But there really is hope. 
  The Future of Truth (and How to Get There) unmasks the tell-tale signs that manipulation has left behind, building up an essential toolkit to help us all to stop, step back from and sidestep false information and fake news wherever we find it.

  The Age of Abundance - AI and...

  Leandro Maya

  What happens to society when machines can do almost everything, and most people no longer need to work? 
  The Age of Abundance is not a book about robots taking jobs. It is a book about what comes after. Drawing on economics, history, and decades of experience at the intersection of finance and technology, Leandro Maya argues that humanity is approaching a transformation unlike anything in recorded history, one that promises extraordinary wealth and devastating disruption in equal measure. 
  At the center of this transformation are two problems that no one is talking about. The ladder problem: automation is eliminating the entry-level positions that have always served as the first rung of career development, cutting off the path before millions of people ever get to climb it. And the purpose problem: when work becomes optional, what gives life meaning? 
  Neither blindly optimistic nor needlessly alarming, The Age of Abundance charts a more honest and more human path through the economic revolution already underway, one that finance professionals, business leaders, and curious minds cannot afford to ignore.
