Sinopse

Tudor Court Influence examines how the Tudor dynasty transformed England through calculated administrative reform, establishing the foundations for a centralized government. Beyond the spectacle of court life, the book reveals the court as a powerful instrument used by monarchs like Henry VIII and Elizabeth I to consolidate authority. The dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII, for example, led to the creation of new administrative bodies, fundamentally altering the structure of English governance. The Tudor's strategic use of the Privy Council further professionalized the civil service ultimately reshaping England’s political landscape.

 
The book meticulously progresses from the historical context predating the Tudors to the administrative innovations and reforms enacted during their reign. By exploring the roles of key figures and analyzing primary sources like state papers and court records, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of the Tudor court's lasting impact. This approach offers readers a fresh perspective, emphasizing the court’s role as an engine of administrative reform rather than merely a stage for royal display.

River Coast & Creek - An...

Judith Ellis

Using the five main rivers of Essex as a framework, it dives into many aspects of the maritime world and its history, taking the reader on an unpredictable and fascinating journey from the lost world of Doggerland and the development of modern humans, to yacht building on the River Colne. With stories from the age-old tradition of smuggling to the secret building and mysterious disappearance of a pocket submarine at Wivenhoe. 
Essex is edged with mudflats and saltmarsh, marginal spaces tht are neither sea nor land. That sense of an unclear boundary is a recurring theme in this exploration of maritime history, in which creatures half-fish and half-animal were thought to haunt the oceans and the bed of the North Sea was once an inhabited country. 
This unusual book takes you on a glorious and unpredictable journey from prehistory through to the end of the great days of sail, when the railways and the diesel engine changed the world forever. 
The author lives in Norfolk and has a fascination with the North Sea coast. her lifelong passion for traditional sail, her love of sketching and her abiding interest in history have combined to produce this delightful and engaging book.

Urban Economics - Understanding...

Lyric Vale

Urban economics is the study of how economic forces shape the development, growth, and functioning of cities. In today’s rapidly urbanizing world, understanding the dynamics of urban areas is crucial for policymakers, businesses, and residents alike. Cities are the engines of economic activity, often driving national economies through industrialization, technological advancement, and labor market opportunities. The field of urban economics provides a framework for analyzing the complex interactions between land use, housing markets, transportation, and labor, all of which influence the growth and prosperity of cities.
One of the core ideas of urban economics is the concept of agglomeration, which refers to the concentration of people and businesses in a specific area to take advantage of economies of scale, reduced transportation costs, and access to a skilled workforce. This concentration leads to the formation of cities as hubs of economic activity, where services, manufacturing, and innovation thrive. However, agglomeration also brings challenges, such as congestion, pollution, and rising living costs. Urban economists seek to understand these trade-offs and develop policies that can foster economic growth while addressing the negative externalities associated with urbanization.
Another fundamental aspect of urban economics is the relationship between urban form and economic performance. Cities are not static entities; they evolve over time as they expand, change in function, and adapt to shifting economic realities. The spatial structure of a city—how land is used, where different activities are located, and the connectivity between various areas—can significantly impact its economic performance. Urban economics explores how factors like zoning laws, infrastructure, and transportation systems influence a city’s efficiency, livability, and overall success.

Planta Sapiens - The New Science...

Paco Calvo, Natalie Lawrence

An astonishing window into the inner world of plants, and the cutting-edge science in plant intelligence. 
 
 
 
Decades of research document plants' impressive abilities: they communicate with one another, manipulate other species, and move in sophisticated ways. Lesser known, however, is the new evidence that plants may actually be sentient. Although plants may not have brains, their microscopic commerce exposes a system not unlike the neuronal networks running through our own bodies. They can learn and remember, possessing an intelligence that allows them to behave in adaptive, flexible, anticipatory, and goal-directed ways. 
 
 
 
A leading figure in the philosophy of plant signaling and behavior, Paco Calvo offers an entirely new perspective on plant biology. In Planta Sapiens, he shows for the first time how we can use tools developed in animal cognition studies in a quest to deeply understand plant intelligence. He illuminates how plants inspire technological advancements: from robotics and AI to tackling the ecological crisis. Most importantly, he demonstrates that plants are neither objects nor resources; they are agents in themselves, and for themselves.
