  "Freedom's Battle" is an influential essay written by Mahatma Gandhi in 1922 during the Indian independence movement. In this thought-provoking piece, Gandhi reflects on the principles of nonviolent resistance and civil disobedience as a means to challenge and overcome oppressive systems. 
   
  The essay begins with Gandhi acknowledging the critical juncture at which the fight for freedom stands. He passionately articulates the necessity of the struggle for independence and the moral imperative for individuals to resist unjust laws and policies. 
   
  Gandhi introduces the concept of Satyagraha, emphasizing the power of truth and nonviolence. He argues that nonviolent resistance is not a strategy of the weak but a potent force that requires great courage and strength of character. He believes that nonviolence is not a submission to injustice but a proactive, assertive force that can transform both the oppressor and the oppressed. 
   
  Throughout the essay, Gandhi explores the moral duty of individuals to engage in civil disobedience when faced with unjust laws. He contends that obedience to an unjust law is in itself a form of violence, and breaking such laws nonviolently becomes a powerful instrument for societal change. 
   
  Gandhi also touches on the idea of self-suffering as a means of resistance. He advocates for willingly enduring the consequences of civil disobedience as a way to awaken the conscience of the oppressor and the society at large. 
  "Freedom's Battle" is a call to action, urging individuals to recognize their agency in the struggle for freedom and justice. It remains a significant work that encapsulates Gandhi's philosophy of nonviolence and its application in the pursuit of social and political change. The essay serves as a timeless inspiration for movements advocating civil rights, justice, and freedom around the world.

  Knead to Know - A History of Baking

  Neil Buttery

  In Knead to Know: A History of Baking, food historian and chef Neil Buttery takes the reader on a journey exploring the creation, evolution and cultural importance of some of our most beloved baked foods, whether they be fit for a monarch's table, or served from the bakestone of a lowly farm labourer. This book charts innovations, happy accidents and some of the most downright bizarre baked foods ever created.
  
  Everything has a history, but food history is special because it tells so much about our culture and society, our desires and our weaknesses, from the broad sweep of bread creating human civilisation to the invention of the wedding cake, the creation of the whisk, the purpose of the fish heads in a star-gazy pie, or the fact that mince pies used to be meaty.
  
  When we think of the evolution of something, we think every step is an improvement, an incremental elevation toward some peak of perfection as technology improves. This is not always the case. Sometimes things have to become simpler, sometimes knowledge is lost and skills forgotten. As a baker of historical foods, Neil Buttery demonstrates that forgotten recipes and traditional techniques are worth trying out (and mention a few that should perhaps be left in the past).
  
  The reader will be inspired by the characters, creations and inventions of the past to be better and more adventurous bakers.

  Lost in Work - Escaping Capitalism

  ***Evening Standard's best non-fiction 2021*** 
   
  'A brilliant, searing exposé of the lies underpinning work' - Owen Jones 
   
  'Work hard, get paid.' It's simple. Self-evident. But it's also a lie—at least for most of us. For people today, the old assumptions are crumbling; hard work in school no longer guarantees a secure, well-paying job in the future. Far from a gateway to riches and fulfilment, 'work' means precarity, anxiety and alienation. 
   
  In this audiobook, beautifully narrated by award-winning actor Libby Mai, Amelia Horgan poses three big questions: what is work? How does it harm us? And what can we do about it? While abolishing work altogether is not the answer, Lost in Work shows that when we are able to take control of our workplaces, we become less miserable, and can work towards the transformative goal of experimenting with 'work' as we know it. 
  Whether you listen on your commute, or while working from home, Lost in Work will empower you to see beyond the systematic problems you face at your job.
