  Pestilence and Trade - The Dark...

  This volume explores how devastating plagues, ambitious trade networks, and long-standing wars defined a darker, yet transformative, side of the Middle Ages. 
  Start with The Black Death, the infamous pandemic that swept across Europe and Asia in the 14th century, killing millions and leaving entire cities and economies in ruin. The plague reshaped societies, led to labor shortages, and sparked deep religious and cultural shifts that altered the trajectory of history. 
  Next, explore The Hanseatic League, a powerful commercial and defensive confederation of merchant guilds and market towns in Northwestern and Central Europe. While it brought prosperity and trade connections, it also exposed cities to disease, piracy, and political tensions, showing the complex balance between wealth and vulnerability. 
  Finally, uncover The Byzantine-Sassanian Wars, a series of intense military conflicts between the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) and Persian (Sassanian) empires. These prolonged wars exhausted both empires, disrupted trade routes, and made the region vulnerable to later invasions and upheaval, particularly the rise of Islam. 
  Together, these three stories illuminate how interconnected the medieval world was—how disease could travel along trade routes, how commerce brought both wealth and danger, and how war weakened even the mightiest of empires.

  Bite Club - Real-life attacks by...

  It’s a trauma like no other. 
  Being perceived as a threat or, worse, hunted as food makes an animal attack a unique ordeal. Suddenly you’re helpless, at its mercy. When an animal strikes it is lightning fast, determined and can’t be reasoned with. Often brutally violent, such an attack can leave horrific injuries, both physical and emotional that endure long after the encounter. 
  Whether it’s a great white shark, a bear, lion, or other deadly predator, the impact such attacks can have on the victim, their families, the communities, and the wider human psyche is often profound and enduring. And when you add the media attention that such incidents often attract, the actual bite might not be the only attack a survivor has to endure. 
  In Bite Club, we meet brave people from around the world who have come face to face with sharks or other deadly predators and lived to tell the tale. And we learn of the group of survivors who are supporting each other to navigate, recover and grow from what is for many, their most traumatic experience ever.
