How would we treat Paddington Bear if he came to the UK today? Perhaps he would be a casualty of extortionate visa application fees; perhaps he would experience a cruel term of imprisonment in a detention centre; or perhaps his entire identity would be torn apart at the hands of a hostile environment that delights in the humiliation of its victims.
Britain thinks of itself as a welcoming country, but the reality is very different. This is a system in which people born in Britain are told in uncompromising terms that they are not British, in which those who have lived their entire lives on these shores are threatened with deportation, and in which falling in love with anyone other than a British national can result in families being ripped apart.
Now fully updated to include the Nationality and Borders Bill, in this vital and alarming book, campaigner and immigration barrister Colin Yeo tackles the subject with dexterity and rigour, offering a roadmap of where we should go from here as he exposes the injustice of an immigration system that is unforgiving, unfeeling and, ultimately, failing.

Zodiakos: The Circle of Holy...

Manly P. Hall

Zodiakos: The Circle of Holy Animals is a mystical exploration of the twelve signs of the zodiac as they were originally conceived—sacred emblems in the celestial scripture of the ancient world. This richly symbolic work reinterprets Aries through Pisces as spiritual archetypes, each one a phase in the soul’s journey around the eternal wheel of life, death, and rebirth. 
Drawing on the esoteric traditions of Egypt, Greece, Chaldea, and the mystery schools of antiquity, Zodiakos reveals how the constellations were not merely tools of astrology, but sacred signatures of cosmic intelligence, encoded with the wisdom of the ages. Whether lion or lamb, goat or twins, each sign becomes a gateway to initiation and an invitation to inner alchemy. 
Perfect for seekers, stargazers, and students of Hermeticism, Zodiakos unites myth, magic, and metaphysics in a visionary guide to the twelvefold path of cosmic understanding.

Setting Boundaries That Stick -...

LMFT Juliane Taylor Shore

Do you struggle to set boundaries with others in your life? Has your past conditioned you to expect pushback when setting boundaries, or caused you to give up on trying to set boundaries altogether? The prospect of setting boundaries can be scary and intimidating and can put you in a very vulnerable place where your mental health and wellbeing may even be at risk. There is a science to creating boundaries—one that will empower you, deepen your connection with others, and improve your self-esteem. 
 
 
 
Setting Boundaries That Stick offers a scientific, neurobiological approach to boundary work. This unique guide will teach you to set healthy boundaries from the inside out by cultivating an "integrated brain," which allows you to respond to others with intention, rather than simply reacting based on instinct. Also included are exercises and activities to help you understand and create both physical and psychological boundaries, thereby building a solid, holistic framework for a more authentic sense of connection with others. 
 
 
 
It's time to set boundaries in a way that empowers you to protect yourself, while also improving your relationships. By working from the inside out, this book will help you set healthy boundaries that actually stick.

Sociology of Social Class -...

Fred Grandsen

This collection brings together three essential studies: Social Class and Mobility, Inequality and Society, and The Power of Social Networks, offering insights into how class and socioeconomic status influence opportunities, access to resources, and life outcomes. 
Social Class and Mobility examines the structures that define social classes and the factors that enable or hinder upward mobility. It explores the barriers and opportunities for individuals to change their class status, focusing on the roles of education, wealth, race, and family background in determining one's ability to move across social hierarchies. 
Inequality and Society analyzes the persistent and growing disparities in wealth, power, and opportunity. The book looks at the root causes of inequality and its societal consequences, examining how systemic structures perpetuate disparities and what can be done to address them. From income inequality to access to healthcare, this book discusses the multifaceted nature of social inequality and its effects on communities. 
The Power of Social Networks explores the crucial role that social connections play in social mobility and life chances. It discusses how networks influence access to job opportunities, resources, and social capital, and how these networks can either reinforce or challenge existing social hierarchies. The book also looks at how digital and online networks are transforming traditional social structures. 
Together, these three books offer a comprehensive understanding of the factors that shape social class, mobility, and inequality in contemporary society. They provide an in-depth look at how individuals and communities navigate the complex terrain of class and opportunity.
