Sinossi

Norwegian Explorers explores the compelling history of Norwegian seafarers and their profound impact on global exploration and European maritime history. Driven by geographical realities, societal ambitions, and individual courage, these explorers navigated uncharted waters, leaving an indelible mark on our understanding of the world. The book highlights intriguing facts, such as the Vikings' surprisingly advanced navigational skills, which allowed them to reach North America centuries before Columbus, and the incredible scientific contributions of polar explorers like Fridtjof Nansen.

 
This book takes a multifaceted approach, progressing chronologically from the Viking voyages to the polar expeditions of the 19th and 20th centuries, and finally to the commercial and scientific expeditions that charted new territories. It examines the historical context, technological advancements like maritime technology, and the interplay of economic, scientific, and nationalistic motivations behind Norwegian exploration. By examining primary accounts and offering fresh translations, Norwegian Explorers provides a comprehensive and engaging narrative valuable to anyone interested in history, geography, or Scandinavian culture.

    **Longlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction**This is the definitive history of Britain’s tumultuous relationship with Europe – as it’s never been told before.'Powerful, precise, morally engaged, wonderfully alert to character, context and the greater purpose of political life' – Rory Stewart, author of Politics on the Edge'A lucid, thoughtful and richly provocative book' – Dominic Sandbrook, The Sunday TimesIn a story of ambition and underhand politics, of nation, identity and belief, acclaimed political writer Tom McTague chronicles the battle of ideas, events and personalities that first took the country into the Common Market in 1973. Only to take it out of the European Union in an explosive referendum a little over forty years later.Drawing on unpublished sources and exclusive interviews, McTague unearths the roots of ideological conflict that raged between the leading politicians of the twentieth century as they fought for the future of Europe – Charles de Gaulle, Harold Macmillan, Jean Monnet, Enoch Powell and Margaret Thatcher.Alongside these famous figures are the lesser-known actors in Britain’s great post-war drama: a coterie of Eurosceptic student radicals, Cold Warriors, eccentric billionaires and political strategists who turned the tide of history.A riveting story of the clashing ideals that have pulled at Britain’s public imagination for more than seven decades, Between the Waves raises that most elemental of questions: who are we?'A sweeping, impressive and ambitious history of modern Europe' – Helen Lewis, author of Difficult Women'Compelling, hugely well-informed . . . will stand for many years as the authoritative political history’ – David Kynaston, author of Austerity Britain, 1945-1951

    Pitched battles over abortion, puberty blockers, and assisted suicide have turned American healthcare into a legal minefield. Faced with mounting restrictions on medical practice, doctors and nurses who follow their conscience to provide standard treatments risk being fined, fired, or even imprisoned, while clinicians who conscientiously deny evidence-based care are shielded without condition from any such consequences. Dov Fox argues that by ceding the moral vocabulary of conscience to refusers alone, the lopsided law of medical conscience selectively burdens providers, drives vulnerable patients underground, and impoverishes the dynamic pluralism of medicine.The Conscience of Care lays bare the broken system of medical conscience and sets out to fix it. Fox canvases a landscape of contested services that include IVF, IUDs, opioids, psychedelics, organ transplants, and advance directives. He develops practical reforms that rebalance conscience protection by introducing measured safeguards for providers and scaling back the categorical refuge afforded to refusers. The Conscience of Care articulates a bold vision of medicine that reclaims the lost promise of conscience to bridge social divides on matters of life and death, impairment and identity.
