  No espionage missions have been kept more secret than those involving American submarines. Now, Blind Man's Bluff shows for the first time how the Navy sent submarines wired with self-destruct charges into the heart of Soviet seas to tap crucial underwater telephone cables. It unveils how the Navy's own negligence might have been responsible for the loss of the USS Scorpion, a submarine that disappeared, all hands lost, thirty years ago. It tells the complete story of the audacious attempt to steal a Soviet submarine with the help of eccentric billionaire Howard Hughes, and how it was doomed from the start. And it reveals how the Navy used the comforting notion of deep sea rescue vehicles to hide operations that were more James Bond than Jacques Cousteau. 
  Blind Man's Bluff contains an unforgettable array of characters, including the cowboy sub commander who brazenly outraced torpedoes and couldn't resist sneaking up to within feet of unaware enemy subs. It takes us inside clandestine Washington meetings where top submarine captains briefed presidents and where the espionage war was planned one sub and one dangerous encounter at a time. Stretching from the years immediately after World War II to the present-day operations of the Clinton Administration, it is an epic story of daring and deception. A magnificent achievement in investigative reporting, it feels like a spy thriller, but with one important difference'everything in it is true.

  Neurodiversity is on the rise. Awareness and diagnoses have exploded in recent years, but we are still missing a wider understanding of how we got here and why.

  In Food, John Coveney examines "food as . . . " identity, politics, industry, regulation, the environment, justice, and gastronomy. He explores how food helps us understand what it means to be human. 
   
   
   
  The centrality of food in life, and the importance of food as life, is undeniable. As a source of biological substrates, personal pleasure, and political power, food is and has been an enduring requirement of human biological, social, and cultural existence. Interest in food has increased across the academic, public, and popular spheres, fueled by popular media's constant play on the role of food and body size, and food and cooking, as a mass spectacle for TV audiences. Through food, we construct our social identities, our families and communities. However, Coveney also highlights the tensions between the industrialization of food, the environment, and the iniquitous distribution of food. He also considers how the food industries, on which most of us must rely, have also had direct effects on our bodies through diet, and the development of illness and diseases. 
   
   
   
  This accessible primer is for students and general listeners alike, indeed, for anyone with an interest in food. It questions the idea that food is merely something inert on the plate. Instead, it shows how influential, symbolic, powerful, and transformative food has come to be.

  Egyptian Art and Architecture -...

  The art and architecture of ancient Egypt are deeply intertwined with the civilization’s religious beliefs and cultural practices. Spanning over three millennia, these artistic expressions were not merely decorative but held profound symbolic meanings, reflecting the Egyptians’ worldview and their connection with the divine. The foundations of Egyptian art and architecture were laid during the early dynastic period, evolving through distinct stages that shaped the visual language of one of history’s most iconic civilizations. 
  Religion played a central role in shaping the aesthetic and thematic aspects of Egyptian art. Temples, tombs, and monuments were designed as sacred spaces, serving as a bridge between the human and divine realms. The concept of Ma’at, representing order and harmony, influenced the geometric precision and symmetrical layouts seen in temple complexes and pyramid construction. Deities were depicted with specific attributes, emphasizing their powers and roles within the cosmos. This symbolic representation extended to Pharaohs, who were portrayed as divine intermediaries, blending human and godly features to signify their sacred status. 
  Symbolism permeated every facet of Egyptian art, from monumental statues to delicate jewelry. Hieroglyphs and pictorial motifs were not merely decorative; they conveyed narratives, prayers, and genealogies. The ankh, symbolizing life, and the scarab, representing transformation and rebirth, are recurring motifs that held spiritual significance. Colors also played a symbolic role: red signified vitality, blue denoted divinity, and gold represented eternity. This symbolic language was meticulously maintained across centuries, creating a consistent artistic identity despite historical changes.
