  Something has gone wrong. We're living in an age of celebratory racism, extreme inequality, uncertainty and fear. We're governed by people who claim to be populist but who seem to hate everyone. There are idiots at the wheel and we're heading for a cliff in a big red bus and no one knows how to save us.				 
  Enemies of The People reveals who has taken us to this dizzying precipice. It provides the actual, non-alternative facts about Donald Trump, Nigel Farage, Vladimir Putin and their charming friends – and also explains where they got their crazy ideas. Why did people turn so mean? How did so-called social networks like Facebook become so very anti-social? Why did anyone think it would be a good idea to privatise railways? Just how much should we fear the robots? Why is no one doing anything about Global Warming? Why is no one doing anything about Boris Johnson either?				 
  This book explains all those vital questions and more.				 
  Remember, though – they say history is written by the victors and fortunately, many of those currently winning can’t seem to write more than 140 characters at a time. This gives us the golden opportunity to set the record straight and snatch back the narrative. But if we’ve any chance of victory, we first need to know our enemy.				 
  In Enemies of The People, Sam Jordison paints a vivid picture of the current political landscape, marked by corruption, misconduct, and a culture of fear. He delves into the biographies of famous figures, revealing their popular yet questionable ideologies.

  The Bible. You've heard of it, yes? Maybe something about David and Goliath or Noah’s ark, or a baby in a manger? What if I told you there was tons of stuff in the Bible that you’ve never heard about? Things like talking donkeys, self-conscious magicians, and kings who think they’re cows. The Bible is a curious book full of deeply flawed people and a God who refuses to give up on them. Don’t believe me? Look for yourself. In these 60 devotions, we examine these unique stories, the circumstances and biblical truth around them, and what they reveal about the heart of God.

  How to Eat Like a Child - And...

  Delia Ephron

  A collection of humorous essays on “the art of being infuriating and other childhood fun” (The New York Times). 
   
  Universal and timeless, Delia Ephron’s How to Eat Like a Child is a delightful revisiting of the joys — and tricky ploys — of childhood. Made into a children’s television special and a musical theater revue performed across the country each year, How to Eat Like a Child offers advice beyond the artful etiquette of food consumption. Ephron also teaches us “How to Laugh Hysterically,” “How to Have a Birthday Party,” “How to Torture Your Sister,” and much, much more. As the Washington Post Book World noted, “After the giggles of recognition have subsided, one thing will be very clear: all adults are kids in grown-ups’ clothing.” 
   
  “Vivid enough to return you, momentarily, to those thrilling days of yesteryear.” —Kirkus Reviews
