  How do you defend democracy when the rules have changed?
  Presidents turning into monarchs. Tech tycoons and autocrats intent on global regime change. Armies of cyber trolls.
  The old order is at an end. The Hour of the Predator has come.
  Former political advisor Giuliano da Empoli takes us on an insider's journey through this new geopolitical reality, from the Glass Palace of the UN to the Riyadh Ritz-Carlton, from top secret meetings to violent power struggles. We encounter dictators and tyrants, strongmen and AI billionaires - geopolitical predators, and the flailing leaders who desperately try to appease them.
   
  Just as in the age of the Borgias or the conquistadors, cynical scheming and brute force increasingly determine the course of international affairs. This is an urgent guide to our new world, and our uncertain future.

  Talking Down The Clock - and...

  Talking Down The Clock is Seamus Cashman's fifth volume of poetry. It follows his 2015 ekphrastic book-length poem, The Sistine Gaze, from which this following quotation is taken: 
  "We are lovers of the earth, not its spouses bound or bought. We are siblings of the stars, sating history's well. Lovers live in beauty's orbit, bypassing time. We change words to love all over again; we mould our shadows with pigments; we make alternatives." (Verse 130, The Sistine Gaze) 
  Cashman Appreciated that TIME was the key challenge, and ventured two poetic sequences, intending to follow where they might lead. These sequences, 'Notebook Exits' and 'Daily Breaks', find time becoming a circus master and cracking the whip daily. Between these sequences are poems for young readersm and lyrics of people, places and sorrow each reflecting Palestine's endurance. 
  In his early collections there was a focis on village life and personal mythologies, the poet found 'fire crackling faggots / at my feet / I inhaled it's fragrance / and forgave myself. / I still could see.'. Now he seeks within, threading the ordinary through the abstract, linking the human via buttonholes of experience, philosophy and the uncertain, clearly enjoying what is encountered enroute. He relishes experiment, as in 'To The Naked Women In The Far Window', 'Be Still', 'Owl', 'Composition', 'Fractalities', 'Catastrophe Turnings' and others. 
  This collection's title poem is a spiral of excitement and image, leading readers through time's impositions and confusions – seeking to seize and to size it, facing the impossibility of ignoring it. We taste how to 'Just Be' as we observe time abseiling life within us to its own rhythms.

  The Battle of Midway: How Courage, Codebreaking, and Split-Second Decisions Turned the Tide of World War II
  
  The Japanese Navy had the upper hand with more ships, more planes, more momentum. What they didn't count on was a group of Americans who were ready to take risks.
  
  Just half a year after the attack on Pearl Harbor, Japan set out to wipe out the remaining U.S. forces in the Pacific. Their target was Midway, a tiny atoll they expected to take with ease. What followed was something entirely different.
  
  This book tells the true story of those four critical days in June 1942. It's a close look at the people, the decisions, and the chain of events that changed the war in the Pacific.
  
   Inside, you'll discover: 
  
  - The thinking behind Japan's expansion and where it started to unravel. 
  - What happened at the Battle of the Coral Sea, and why it mattered for Midway. 
  - The role of U.S. codebreakers and how their work shaped the outcome. 
  - A clear, step-by-step account of the battle itself from both air and sea. 
  - Key moments where things could have gone either way. 
  - Why Midway was more than just a win, it was a major blow to Japan's naval strength. 
  - How this single battle helped shift the direction of the entire war. 
  - And much, much more! 
   
  From quiet rooms where codes were cracked to the chaos of carrier decks, this is a story about timing, instinct, and what people are willing to risk when the stakes are everything.
  
  If you want to understand how World War II turned out in the Pacific, start with Midway.
