  Codebreakers - How Allied...

  The art of codebreaking has long been an essential aspect of warfare, serving as a hidden weapon that can change the course of history. During World War II, intelligence efforts were not only about gathering information; they were about deciphering the secrets encoded by the enemy to gain a strategic advantage. As technology evolved, so did the complexity of military ciphers, making the task of breaking enemy codes more challenging and more critical than ever. "Codebreakers: How Allied Intelligence Cracked Enemy Codes and the Tide" delves into the extraordinary efforts of Allied cryptographers, whose tireless work behind the scenes helped secure victories that shifted the balance of the war. 
    
  The importance of cryptography in World War II cannot be overstated. The ability to read an enemy’s messages before they had time to act was a decisive factor in numerous key battles and campaigns. The German Enigma machine, a sophisticated encryption device, represented the pinnacle of Nazi Germany’s efforts to protect its communications. Breaking this code was essential to the Allied success, and it was a challenge that seemed insurmountable at the time. However, a group of brilliant minds, including Alan Turing, led the charge in deciphering the Enigma cipher, providing the Allies with invaluable intelligence that allowed them to anticipate German movements, thwart attacks, and save countless lives. 
    
  At the heart of this monumental achievement was Bletchley Park, a secret British facility that became the epicenter of codebreaking during the war. Here, the brightest mathematicians, linguists, and engineers worked tirelessly, often under immense pressure, to crack the German and later the Japanese codes.

  Remember Me As Human - What...

  When Lucy Walsh was seventeen, she was given sixty-three of the love letters her Grandfather Dale wrote her Grandmother Wanda while he was overseas in World War II. A dozen years later, life changing events compelled Lucy to fly from Los Angeles to tiny Newman, Illinois, to spend three days talking with Wanda for what would be their final conversations. What began for Lucy as asking about the letters, became an unexpected master class in truly living. 
  This is the story, much of it conveyed in Wanda's inimitable voice, of Wanda's ninety-seven-year-long life, encompassing everything from her English ancestors to the residents in her nursing home. Through Lucy's candid questions and Wanda's soulful stories, we are swept up into one family's legacy that transports readers right into their own experiences and memories of family. 
  When Lucy isn't talking with Wanda, she visits other relatives and her own memories: the many trips over the years to Illinois and her mother's family; growing up in Los Angeles with two fathers, one a rock star; becoming a performer herself. Inevitably, in her effort to understand where and who she comes from, it becomes the story of Lucy's life as well, to which all readers can relate to in their own search for Self. 
  We fall in love with the unforgettable Grandma Wanda Mae, as she shares insights and confessions with plenty of comedic relief amongst the pain; making us laugh so hard we cry, and cry so hard we come back around to laughter. This book is a treasure trove of all Wanda has to teach us about what it truly means to be deeply, imperfectly, gloriously human, at every age.

  Mudlarking enthusiast Ted Sandling takes us on a riveting journey along the Thames foreshore and back into the past.'A beautiful book.' Daily Mail'Exhilaratingly curious.' Evening Standard'Gripping.' Spectator'Brilliant.' Penelope Lively'Indefatigably researched.' Country Life'Wonderful, quirky.' Tracy Chevalier Mudlarking, the act of searching the Thames foreshore for items of value, has a long tradition in London. In the late 18th and 19th centuries, mudlarks were small boys grubbing a living from scrap. Modern-day mudlark Ted Sandling shares his passion for unearthing relics of the past from the banks of the Thames and describes his fifty most evocative finds. From Roman tiles to elegant Georgian pottery, these objects create a mosaic of everyday London life through the centuries, touching on the journeys, pleasures, vices and industries of a world city. This book celebrates the beauty of small things, and the intangible connection that found objects give us to the past. The Thames presents treasures with a delightful serendipity: it gives up a hundred random objects, and it is up to the finder to discover their stories. That is the joy of mudlarking: that after every trip to the river you know more than you did before. Chance connections with something that was once treasured, that was once lost and has now been found again. Even the meanest broken fragments tells a story of this great city. 'The significance of these fragments lies in the stories they tell us about the everyday lives of the people to whom there are no monuments or blue plaques.' TLS A fully illustrated edition of this book is also available under the title LONDON IN FRAGMENTS: A Mudlark's Treasures.

  Opening the Hand of Thought -...

  Kôshô Uchiyama

  For over thirty years, Opening the Hand of Thought has offered an introduction to Zen Buddhism and meditation unmatched in clarity and power. This is the revised edition of Kosho Uchiyama's singularly incisive classic. 
   
   
   
  This new edition contains even more useful material: new prefaces, an index, and extended endnotes, in addition to a revised glossary. As Jisho Warner writes in her preface, Opening the Hand of Thought "goes directly to the heart of Zen practice . . . showing how Zen Buddhism can be a deep and life-sustaining activity." She goes on to say, "Uchiyama looks at what a person is, what a self is, how to develop a true self not separate from all things, one that can settle in peace in the midst of life." 
   
   
   
  By turns humorous, philosophical, and personal, Opening the Hand of Thought is above all a great book for the Buddhist practitioner. It's a perfect follow-up for the listener who has heard Zen Meditation in Plain English and is especially useful for those who have not yet encountered a Zen teacher.
