Synopsis

In "Augusta Triumphans," Daniel Defoe offers a multifaceted exploration of the political, social, and cultural landscape of early 18th-century England, particularly during the reign of Queen Anne. The book is infused with Defoe's characteristic wit and keen observational style, presenting a blend of satire and earnest commentary. Written in the context of a nation grappling with its identity amid political factions, the work serves as both a celebration and critique of the rapidly changing society, touching upon themes of nationalism, urbanization, and the burgeoning middle class. Defoe, a prolific writer and social commentator, was deeply influenced by his varied experiences as a merchant, journalist, and political dissident. His diverse background and encounters with political unrest provided him with a unique lens through which to view the complexities of his time. "Augusta Triumphans" reflects Defoe's keen interest in societal reforms and his belief in the potential of the British populace. His work, often overlooked amidst his more famous novels, reveals his astute understanding of human nature and governance. Readers seeking insight into the socio-political dynamics of early 18th-century England will find "Augusta Triumphans" an invaluable resource. Defoe's clever prose and penetrating observations invite a deeper engagement with the historical context, making this book a significant addition to both literary and historical studies.

    The play is Inspired by the book, based on the 1916 rising with the heroes Michael Mallin and Countess Markievicz in their last hours. This play is about the Easter Rising, a seminal moment in history as Ireland begins its journey to statehood. Two of the figureheads of the Easter Rising, Michael Mallin and Countess Markievicz spend their last days together as the Citizen Army hold out in the College of Surgeons of Ireland building on the Stephens Green, Dublin. Michael Mallin the trade unionist and Countess Markievicz the aristocrat turned socialist. The people are real and of great historical importance. The events are real. The dialogue is fictitious and is the author’s attempt to simulate the issues at that time

    Unsettled - What Climate Science...

    In this updated and expanded edition of climate scientist Steven Koonin’s groundbreaking book, go behind the headlines to discover the latest eye-opening data about climate change—with unbiased facts and realistic steps for the future. 
     
    “Greenland’s ice loss is accelerating.” 
    “Extreme temperatures are causing more fatalities.” 
    “Rapid ‘climate action’ is essential to avoid a future climate disaster.” 
     
    You’ve heard all this presented as fact. But according to science, all of these statements are profoundly misleading. 
     
    With the new edition of Unsettled, Steven Koonin draws on decades of experience—including as a top science advisor to the Obama administration—to clear away the fog and explain what science really says (and doesn’t say). With a new introduction, this edition now features reflections on an additional three years of eye-opening data, alternatives to unrealistic “net zero” solutions, global energy inequalities, and the energy crisis arising from the war in Ukraine. 
     
    When it comes to climate change, the media, politicians, and other prominent voices have declared that “the science is settled.” In reality, the climate is changing, but the why and how aren’t as clear as you’ve probably been led to believe. 
     
    Koonin takes readers behind the headlines, dispels popular myths, and unveils little-known truths: 
    • Despite rising greenhouse gas emissions, global temperatures decreased from 1940 to 1970 
    • Models currently used to predict the future do not accurately describe the climate of the past, and modelers themselves strongly doubt their regional predictions 
    • There is no compelling evidence that hurricanes are becoming more frequent—or that predictions of rapid sea level rise have any validity 
     
    Unsettled is a reality check buoyed by hope, offering the truth about climate science—what we know, what we don’t, and what it all means for our future.
