  ‘A persuasive manifesto for a better Britain.’ Observer Book of the Day 
  Britain needs a fresh start. This timely book by one of the stars of the new government shows how to achieve it. 
  In this brilliant and accessible intervention, Lisa Nandy reveals how Britain can leave behind the mess in which we find ourselves. All In charts a course towards a fairer, more equal, more prosperous country by drawing on the greatest asset we have – each other. 
  Rapid global changes, political division and economic crisis have left Britain reeling. For decades, large swathes of the country have been shut out, condemned to low productivity, underinvestment and managed decline, and stripped of their voice. With most major cities now beset with high housing costs, air pollution and congestion, even the ‘winners’ are losing. 
  All In shows how, by handing power and resources to people with a stake in the outcome, Britain can draw on the talent, assets and potential in every part of the country and start firing on all cylinders again. Finding strength rather than fear in our differences, it reimagines the relationship between people and government so that all of us can play our part in meeting the challenges of our age and rebuilding Britain the only way that works – together. 
  Lucid, clear-eyed and hopeful, this book sets out how we restore values, energy and direction to our politics and offers a glimpse of the alternative future that remains within our grasp. 
  Nandy's autobiography is a personal exploration of the process of political change, offering a best case scenario for a united, prosperous Britain. Drawing on history and economics, she presents a compelling vision for the 21st century. 
  For fans of Wes Streeting (One Boy, Two Bills and a Fry Up), Gordon Brown (My Life, Our Times), Jess Phillips (Truth to Power), Chris Bryant (Code of Conduct), and Sebastian Payne (Broken Heartlands).

  A Little Cocaine to Loosen My...

  Sigmund Freud

  In the 1880s, Freud discovered cocaine and became enthusiastic about what was not yet considered a party drug. Favoring the use of cocaine in the treatment of neurasthenia, as an energizer, or as an anesthetic, Freud made a creative and fashionable use of it, heralding practices that our society knows well. Several surprising texts are gathered here on cocaine. Freud recounts the use of coca in history, particularly in South America, from where it was imported. In Cocaine Addiction and Cocaine Phobia, the inventor of psychoanalysis defended coca against its accusers as a dangerous product. Finally, in the letters to Martha Bernays, his future wife, we discover an intimate and loving Freud, telling how he escaped boring dinners thanks to his dear magic substance.

  The Black Man's President -...

  Michael Burlingame

  In a little-noted eulogy delivered after Lincoln's assassination, Frederick Douglass called the president "emphatically the black man's president," the "first to show any respect for their rights as men." Douglass pointed not just to Lincoln's official acts and utterances, like the Emancipation Proclamation or the Second Inaugural Address, but also to the president's own personal experiences with Black people. 
   
   
   
  But Lincoln's description as "emphatically the black man's president" rests on more than his relationship with Douglass or on his official words and deeds. Lincoln interacted with many other African Americans during his presidency. His unfailing cordiality to them, his willingness to meet with them in the White House, to honor their requests, to invite them to consult on public policy, to treat them with respect whether they were kitchen servants or leaders of the Black community, to invite them to attend receptions, to sing and pray with them in their neighborhoods—all those manifestations of an egalitarian spirit justified the tributes paid to him by Frederick Douglass and other African Americans. 
   
   
   
  Historian David S. Reynolds observed that only by examining Lincoln's "personal interchange with Black people do we see the complete falsity of the charges of innate racism that some have leveled against him over the years."

  Trial by Treatment - Punishing...

  Mary Ellen Stitt

  A troubling account of the unexpected impacts of treatment-based alternatives to criminal punishment.
   
  Every year, courts send hundreds of thousands of people to treatment-based programs as alternatives to traditional punishment. These alternatives—known as ‘diversion programs’—are widely celebrated as reforms that reduce the punishment of the mentally ill. But in Trial by Treatment, Mary Ellen Stitt shows that they have, in fact, expanded the reach of the criminal legal system and its power over the lives of the most vulnerable.
   
  The inner workings of diversion programs are obscure, partially by design, and data on outcomes is hard to come by. Stitt draws on two years of fieldwork in criminal courtrooms and court-mandated treatment sessions, as well as an original national dataset, in-depth interviews, and experimental survey data, to document the hidden impacts of diversion. She shows that placing mental healthcare under the control of the courts has helped to legitimize the criminalization of illness, warped treatment environments, and amplified inequalities in punishment. In vivid and humanizing detail, Trial by Treatment shows how reforms that keep power and discretion in the same hands can entrench the very problems they promised to solve.
