Sinopsis

In Why Read? The Battle Between Book and Screen Kenneth Baker recalls how reading was so important to him as a child, and why in this National Year of Reading, and working together with the National Literacy Trust, he would like to encourage today's young people to share his love of reading.
'I first came across poetry at my primary school in a book containing Blake's 'The Tiger'. I had never seen one, but it came alive by reading about it. My father read to my sister and myself extracts from Dickens and I still reread all his novels - my favourite is Bleak House.'
'In my life I've spent more time reading books than any other activity. I want to share the joy and pleasure with those who are not natural readers. Opening a book spells the end of ignorance and it frames our imaginative life forever.'
'This book has over 100 illustrations for as Alice in Wonderland said 'what is the use of a book without illustrations?'

Sophist - A Deep Inquiry into Falsehood Language and Reality – Plato’s Study of the Nature of Being - cover

Plato, Tim Zengerink

What if deception had a logic of its own? 
In Sophist, Plato dares to tackle the concept of falsehood—not as error, but as something that seems to exist within language and thought. Through a dense but gripping dialogue between the Eleatic Stranger and Theaetetus, the discussion exposes the tricks of sophistry, the instability of language, and the paradox of how “what is not” can still be spoken of and understood. 
This modernized audiobook delivers one of Plato’s most intellectually daring texts with clarity and precision. Perfect for thinkers, scholars, and seekers of truth. 
What you’ll discover inside: 
•	A bold philosophical exploration of non-being, falsehood, and the metaphysics of language 
•	A deep critique of sophistry, appearance, and rhetorical manipulation 
•	Plato’s method of division—used to isolate philosophical concepts with surgical accuracy 
•	A readable, listener-friendly adaptation of one of Plato’s most abstract and influential works 
If you want to unravel the logic behind illusion and sharpen your understanding of truth, Sophist is essential listening.

I asked my Year 1 class, ‘What’s the best thing that’s ever happened to you?’ 
George Pointon asks his class a lot of questions. What do you want to be when you grow up? What do you reckon your parents do while you’re at school? Can you put that down, please? JJ, the stapler – can you put it down? 
He’s also got a few for himself: what is he doing here? Who was he kidding, thinking he could teach? 
But the course of true professional fulfilment never did run smooth, and there’s no backing out now. 
In this book, George takes us along on his first year inside the messy, magical world of primary school teaching. In the company of five-year-olds – who are somehow wisdom, innocence and chaos incarnate – there is always lots to be learned. 
In Teacher Man, George Pointon masterfully combines elements of autobiography and non-fiction to provide a candid look at education and parenting. His essays delve into the complexities of behavioural management and relationships within the school environment, offering a unique perspective on the role of educators. 
For fans of Maggie Hartley (Please Help My Mummy), James A. Grymes (Violins of Hope), Ajay Tegala (Wetland Diaries), Julie Ryan Mcgue (Twice a Daughter), and Samantha Harvey (The Shapeless Unease).

Insurance How It Started - cover

Insurance How It Started

The idea of writing this book was to capture the humble origin of insurance from a casual chat in a coffee house (not in a court or parliament), then the various case laws which cemented the fundamental principles for example – Life Assurance Act 1774, cemented the principle of Insurable Interest as necessary in EVERY contract of Insurance. 
We continue to observe its evolution through the years to today’s position where Insurance is a regulated industry and recent ACTs in 2012 and 2015, now shifts the responsibility to request material facts concerning risks to the Insurers and away from the requirement under the Marine Insurance Act 1906 which was the standing position for over 100 years until the 2012 & 2015 Acts.
