  Millionaire industrialist Tony Stark has rejected the lucrative munitions trade that put his company on the map. But he can’t just turn away when the antiterror organization known as S.H.I.E.L.D. asks him for help in its battle against the sinister forces of HYDRA. As the next step in its quest for global domination, the international terrorist cabal is plotting to use cutting-edge technology in a devastating attack on New York City. The source of their advanced weaponry: Stark Industries. Against such fearsome firepower, the city’s only hope lies with the agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and with the ultimate human weapon: the golden avenger known as Iron Man. But when the man behind the metal mask falls prey to the schemes of two tantalizing temptresses, both as stunning and seductive as they are lethal, a fatal chink in his armor is revealed—a flaw that could lead to his downfall and the city’s doom.

  Anthropology originated as the study of 'primitive' cultures. But the notion of 'primitive' exposes presumptions of 'civilized' superiority and the right of the West to speak for 'less evolved' others. With the fall of Empire, anthropology became suspect and was torn by dissension from within. Did anthropology serve as a 'handmaiden to colonialism'? Is it a 'science' created by racism to prove racism? Can it aid communication between cultures, or does it reinforce our differences? "Introducing Anthropology" is a fascinating account of an uncertain human science seeking to transcend its unsavoury history. It traces the evolution of anthropology from its genesis in Ancient Greece to its varied forms in contemporary times. Anthropology's key concepts and methods are explained, and we are presented with such big-name anthropologists as Franz Boas, Bronislaw Malinowski, E.E. Evans-Pritchard, Margaret Mead and Claude Levi-Strauss. The new varieties of self-critical and postmodern anthropologies are examined, and the leading question - of the impact of anthropology on non-Western cultures - is given centre-stage. "Introducing Anthropology" is lucid in its arguments, its good humour supported by apt and witty illustrations. This book offers a highly accessible invitation into anthropology.

  Introduce your child to the world of chakras with our 15-in-1 children's audio book collection, focused on the three higher chakras - Throat, Third Eye, and Crown. 
  The Throat Chakra is associated with communication, expression, and creativity, while the Third Eye Chakra is associated with intuition, imagination, and spiritual connection. The Crown Chakra represents our connection to the divine and the infinite, as well as our sense of purpose and meaning in life. 
  Each book in this collection has been carefully crafted to help children connect with these three chakras in a meaningful way. I will give a fair warning when getting into the intuitive side of the chakras. The Third Eye and Crown Chakra can be intense for beginners. However, even though these chakras can be a deep subject for younger children, it presents a unique opportunity for them to explore their inner world and develop a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them. As with all of our books, we encourage parents to use their own judgment and guidance when exploring these concepts with their children. 
  Through these books, your child will learn the value of self-expression and creative freedom, the importance of trusting their inner voice and intuition, and the power of finding meaning and purpose in life. 
  So if you're looking for a way to help your child explore the concepts of the higher chakras and develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their place in the world, look no further than The Intuitive Upper 3 Chakra Pack!

  A fascinating investigation of a beloved comic strip
   
  The internet is home to impassioned debates on just about everything, but there’s one thing that’s universally beloved: Bill Watterson’s comic strip Calvin and Hobbes. Until its retirement in 1995 after a ten-year run, the strip won numerous awards and drew tens of millions of readers from all around the world. The story of a boy and his best friend — a stuffed tiger — was a pitch-perfect distillation of the joys and horrors of childhood, and a celebration of imagination in its purest form. In Let’s Go Exploring, Michael Hingston mines the strip and traces the story of Calvin’s reclusive creator to demonstrate how imagination — its possibilities, its opportunities, and ultimately its limitations — helped make Calvin and Hobbes North America’s last great comic strip.
