  In the mid-eighteenth century, most of the Mediterranean coastline and its hinterlands were controlled by the Ottoman Empire, a vast Islamic power regarded by Christian Europe with awe and fear. By the end of the First World War, however, this great civilisation had been completely subjugated, and its territories occupied by European powers. Sea of Troubles is the definitive account of the European conquest of the Levant and North Africa over three centuries. Ian Rutledge reveals the intense imperial rivalry between six European powers - Britain, France, Italy, Spain, Austria-Hungary and Russia - who all jostled for control of the trade, lands and wealth of the Islamic Mediterranean. The competition between these states made their conquest a far more difficult and extended task than they encountered elsewhere in the world. Yet, as new contenders entered the contest, and as rivalries intensified in the early twentieth century, events would spiral out of control as the continent headed towards the First World War.

  Never before had they known such hope. 
  In a world drenched in violence and oppression, here was a man armed with a message of peace and freedom. Into lives nearly overwhelmed by grief and sorrow, he brought compassion and healing and the deepest joy. To people who felt like outcasts and aliens, he showed the way home. And then, in one devastating night, all their hopes collapsed. 
  This is where our story begins—in the valley of despair. It is a tale of two friends, a stranger, and a search for truth in a world gone mad with doubt. 
  Historian Joseph Loconte unlocks the meaning of their exchange, set in the chaotic days following the execution of Jesus of Nazareth. Drawing from literature, film, philosophy, history, and politics, Loconte shows how this biblical drama is an integral part of our own story. Sooner or later, we will find ourselves among the searchers.

This influential work continues to be celebrated for its impact on political thought and its timeless call for freedom and justice.

  “Riddles of Destiny” is a gripping saga blending ancient spiritual wisdom with cutting-edge technology. At its heart are Siddhanta Sarma, a sun-worshipping priest, and Gorak Agora, a sage of the secretive Aghori sect. Together, they face a formidable enemy who manipulates both the spiritual and technological realms. 
  The tale begins when Ranganna, a disciple of Gorak Aghora, accidentally unlocks the gates of hell, setting off a catastrophic chain of events that spans continents. Meanwhile, Father Francis finds himself entangled in the schemes of Lucian Wrathborne, a mastermind controlling the deadly Brain Activity Transformer (BAT)—a device capable of altering human behaviour remotely. 
  Above it all, SANI, a hijacked stealth satellite, becomes Lucian's all-seeing eye, orchestrating chaos from space. As the world teeters on the edge, Sarma and Aghora must unravel Lucian’s web of deceit, uncovering deeper cosmic truths. 
  “Riddles of Destiny” masterfully combines elements of spiritual lore with advanced technology, creating a narrative that explores fate, resilience, and the quest for truth.

  Sex Work and COVID-19 in the New...

  New Zealand’s relatively recent decriminalisation of sex work and its unusual success in combatting COVID-19 have both attracted international media interest. This accessibly written book uses the lens of news media coverage to consider the pandemic’s impacts on both sex workers and public perceptions of the industry. Analysing the stigmatisation of sex work in both short- and long-term contexts, the book addresses the impacts of intersectional oppressions or marginalisations on sex workers, and the ways sex work advocacy relates to other social justice movements. It unpicks how New Zealand’s decriminalisation approach functions under stress, offering valuable information for advocates, activists and scholars.
