  "Groskop skillfully juggles memoir, biography, philosophy, and literary criticism to create a delightful tour through some of French literature's greats." —Madeline Miller, New York Times bestselling author 
   
   
   
  Like many people the world over, Viv Groskop wishes she was a little more French. A writer, comedian, and journalist, Groskop studied the language obsessively starting at age eleven, and spent every vacation in France, desperate to escape her Englishness and to have some French chic rub off on her. In Au Revoir, Tristesse, Groskop mixes literary history and memoir to explore how the classics of French literature can infuse our lives with joie de vivre and teach us how to say goodbye to sadness. From the frothy hedonism of Colette and the wit of Cyrano de Bergerac to the intoxicating universe of Marguerite Duras and the heady passions of Les Liaisons dangereuses, this is a love letter to great French writers. With chapters on Marcel Proust, Victor Hugo, Gustave Flaubert, Stendhal, Honoré de Balzac, Albert Camus, and of course Françoise Sagan, this is a must-listen for book lovers everywhere.

  Intelligent Design: The Final Proof of God By Dan Anghel, MD Can quantum physics and philosophy prove the existence of God? In this groundbreaking exploration, Dr. Dan Anghel bridges the gap between science and spirituality to present a compelling argument for the existence of a higher power. Intelligent Design: The Final Proof of God delves deep into the mysteries of quantum physics and philosophical thought, tackling profound questions about free will, determinism, and the nature of the soul. Examining the essence of consciousness, Dr. Anghel argues that artificial intelligence systems cannot attain true consciousness or free will due to the inherent limitations of physics in the material world. This perspective challenges current assumptions about AI and its potential, offering a fresh viewpoint rooted in both scientific understanding and spiritual insight. Confronting the age-old problem of evil, he offers innovative solutions that challenge conventional wisdom while maintaining the utmost respect and ethical consideration. His out-of-the-box perspective on God invites readers to rethink traditional beliefs and embrace a more expansive understanding of the divine. Drawing from his own near-death experience, Dr. Anghel enriches his scientific and philosophical discourse with personal revelation. Throughout the book, he shares simple yet profound Christian and philosophical quotes that illuminate complex concepts and inspire thoughtful reflection. Discover a harmonious blend of science, philosophy, and spirituality that offers new proof of God's existence and invites you on a transformative journey of understanding.

  Murderous Hugs

  Delphine was 4 years old when her hell began.
  "We always promised each other, my Mom and I, that we would not talk about it anymore, that it was over. Except that after this promise, which I never broke, I had many bad times to go through. I was always trying to find out why I felt so bad about myself, why the fear of dying came over me again, as in childhood. I gradually became aware that this feeling of uneasiness probably came from the drifting in and out of hospitals that I had experienced from a very young age, from the way my mother manipulated me, from all this sadness, and these fears, all these emotions had been so well repressed for years. My mind doesn't want to remember but my body hasn't forgotten anything and was letting me know." 
  Munchhausen syndrome by proxy is a severe form of child abuse in which the adult caregiver deliberately causes serious and repeated health problems in the child before taking the child to a doctor. 
  Afterword by Dr. Stéphanie Dauver, child psychiatrist, who wrote her thesis on Munchhausen syndrome by proxy.

  A Curious Curriculum - Teaching...

  Written by Claire Banks and Mick Waters, A Curious Curriculum: Teaching foundation subjects well details the insightful and transformational steps that a school can take towards designing and delivering a rich, rigorous and wide-ranging curriculum.
  Foreword by Mary Myatt.
  Rather than being a model curriculum that can be uprooted and planted in any school, the book is a model schools can use to design their own curriculum, one that not only encourages children to be active participants in their own learning, but also to see the benefits of being part of a bigger, wider family of learners.
  The authors concentrate on the foundation subjects, particularly history, geography and science but also design and technology (DT) and art and design areas that are often challenging for teachers in primary schools. Subjects are brought together and explored under "big ideas" and, crucially, the emphasis is on avoiding the superficial and trivial and rooting teaching in extending and challenging children.
  In A Curious Curriculum, Claire Banks and Mick Waters share the story of one multi-academy trust (MAT) which designed and delivered a shared educational vision, a rationale for excellence in the curriculum, and the resources and support given to help reduce teachers' workload.
  Claire and Mick present a clear model both for supporting a group of schools or leading one school, offering a fresh perspective on working on a MAT-wide curriculum, as well as providing a range of snapshot examples of the curriculum in action in the form of documents, plans, photos and the learners' own work. The book shares transferrable lessons from the trust's journey to success, setting out an educational philosophy that pairs pedagogy with a well-structured curriculum designed with learners' best interests at its heart.
  All children deserve an engaging, exciting curriculum designed to spark their curiosity, feed their imagination and develop their skills and knowledge. With clear timelines and an honest and transparent dialogue about the challenges and benefits of working together collaboratively and the importance of external expertise, A Curious Curriculum is an essential read for all school leaders.
  Suitable for executive leaders, head teachers, curriculum coordinators and subject leaders in primary school settings.

With critical sources and literary sensitivity, the book reveals at once the peasant girl, the moral strategist, the martyr, and the myth that continue to inspire readers of all generations.
