Sinopsis

In "Results and Prospects," Leon Trotsky presents a profound analysis of the Russian Revolution and the trajectory of socialism, articulated through a Marxist lens. This seminal work is characterized by Trotsky's vivid prose, theoretical rigor, and a sense of urgency that reflects the tumultuous period in which it was written. Published in 1906, the book examines the revolutionary potential of the proletariat, critiques both reformist and opportunist elements within the working-class movements, and postulates the necessity for a global revolution to realize socialist ideals. Through these explorations, Trotsky situates his writing within the broader context of early 20th-century Marxism, making it essential for understanding the ideological battles of the era. Trotsky, a key figure in the Bolshevik Revolution and a staunch advocate for permanent revolution, draws upon his personal experiences and radical political activity to inform his analysis. His intellectual journey, marked by his opposition to Stalin's bureaucratic regime, imbues "Results and Prospects" with a sense of urgency and conviction about revolutionary theory. Trotsky's unique perspective, shaped by his historical involvement in both theory and practice, enhances the text's authority and relevance. This book is highly recommended for those interested in revolutionary theory, political history, and the complexities of socialist thought. Scholars, students, and general readers alike will find Trotsky's insights illuminating as they grapple with the ongoing struggles for social justice and equality in contemporary society. "Results and Prospects" is not merely a historical account; it is a clarion call for continued revolutionary action.

    A Waterstones and BBC History Magazine Best Book of the Year 
    The Aspects of History Book of the Year 2025 
    'Terrific – full of drama … it has profoundly altered my understanding of the Second World War' PATRICK BISHOP 
    FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF SBS COMES AN EPIC HISTORY OF THE ALLIED VICTORY IN NORTH AFRICA DURING THE SECOND WORLD WAR. 
    On 8 November 1942, British and American troops invaded French North Africa as part of Operation Torch, the largest amphibious operation of the war to date. The Germans responded by flooding troops into Tunisia and the stage was set for one of the most decisive clashes of the war. 
    For months the outcome hung in the balance. The Allies failed to capture Tunis before Christmas, and early in the New Year the legendary German commander Erwin Rommel ( the ‘ Desert Fox ’) inflicted a series of crushing defeats on inexperienced American troops in the mountain passes of central Tunisia. But once the two Allied armies – the First and the Eighth – had joined hands in southern Tunisia in early April, the defeat of Axis forces was inevitable. The end came on 13 May when the remnants of the First Italian Army surrendered to British troops in northern Tunisia, leaving the Allies ‘ masters of the North African shores ’. 
    It was, with Guadalcanal in the Pacific and Stalingrad in Russia, one of three Axis defeats in early 1943 that changed the course of the war. Historians have recognized the significance of the others, but not Tunisia which they have either ignored or characterized ( as the Americans did at the time ) as a sideshow. Yet it ended Axis sea power in the Mediterranean, destroyed more than 2,400 Axis aircraft ( 40 per cent of the Luftwaffe ’ s strength ), and resulted in the surrender of over 250,000 German and Italian troops, more than were captured at Stalingrad. Such was the scale of their defeat that the German public wryly dubbed it ‘ Tunisgrad ’. 
    It was the first campaign fought by the Anglo-American alliance, and would determine how and where the Allies would fight for the rest of the war. It was where America first brought to bear the full weight of its industrial strength, and where the Allies learned, after early setbacks, how to defeat the Germans with a combination of air, land and sea power. It featured many of the great commanders of the Second World War, including ‘ Ike ’ Eisenhower, George S. Patton Jr, Omar N. Bradley, Harold Alexander, Bernard Montgomery and Erwin Rommel. But the campaign ’ s chief significance is that it extinguished any lingering hopes in Italy that the war could be won and led, inexorably, to the dissolution of the Axis in Europe. By destroying the Axis it marked, for Hitler, the beginning of the end. 
    Tunisgrad is the first comprehensive 360-degree history, told from the perspective of all the combatants, and ranging in focus from politicians and senior commanders to ordinary servicemen fighting in and over the mountains of Tunisia, and across the Mediterranean. Using a variety of first-hand sources, it restores the campaign to its rightful place as a defining moment of the war 
    Saul David's latest work, Tunisgrad, is a comprehensive exploration of the conflicts that shaped the 20th century. As the Sunday Times bestselling author, David's non-fiction account of modern wars is an up-coming top pick for history enthusiasts. 
    For fans of Al Murray (Arnhem), Joseph Wheelan (Bitter Peleliu), Geoffrey Wawro (A Mad Catastrophe), Bob Drury (Throne of Grace), and Antony Beevor (D-Day).

    'A TRULY IMPORTANT BOOK’ JOHN HUMPHRYS 
    'FASCINATING… SHOCKING' SPECTATOR 
    What is paranoia? What makes us mistrustful? How can this be overcome? 
    Daniel Freeman, Professor of Psychology at Oxford, has spent thirty years at the vanguard of paranoia research and treatment. This remarkable and moving book tells the story of that journey. 
    For decades, conventional wisdom held that paranoia was only experienced by people with severe mental health problems and little could be done to rectify its disastrous effects. Paranoia gives us a front row seat as Freeman turns the traditional view on its head. 
    He develops life-changing treatments for clinical paranoia – often using state-of-the-art technology like virtual reality. He reveals that suspicion is rife in society, with paranoia widespread, conspiracy theories rampant and emotion all too often trumping evidence. He discovers the causes of mistrust, including the role of genes, trauma, lack of sleep, worry, low self-confidence, cannabis use and hearing voices, and delves into the murky world of Covid-19 conspiracy theories. Lighting up the narrative throughout are the rarely heard voices of people whose lives have been almost wrecked by paranoia – and then in many cases transformed by Freeman’s groundbreaking treatments. 
    This is also a practical book. Freeman shows how we can measure our own levels of mistrust. He explains how we can remedy things if those levels are higher than we’d like, because although mistrust can seem engrained, things can change for the better. Ultimately, it can be overcome. Compelling and compassionate, this is a gripping tale from the front line of suspicion – an impassioned plea for the urgent rebuilding of trust between us all. 
    Daniel Freeman's Paranoia is a compelling mix of autobiography, neuroscience, and social science. It offers a deep understanding of paranoia, its medical implications, and the anxieties and phobias it can cause, providing self-help strategies for patients. 
    For fans of Viktor E. Frankl (Embracing Hope), Irvin D. Yalom (Hour of the Heart), Benji Waterhouse (You Don't Have to Be Mad to Work Here), Zindel V. Segal (The Self In Emotional Distress), and James Clear (Atomic Habits).

    Yamnaya Culture The: The History...

    After the Mongols rode across the steppes of Asia and Eastern Europe and steppe nomads like the Magyars and Cumans became major military and cultural forces in Europe, the steppe nomads became notorious as foreign marauders who rode the steppes looking for plunder and riches, but they rarely stayed long after they got what they wanted. In reality, these groups represented vanguards of a massive nomadic horde that grew in ferocity and effectiveness as the centuries passed, and they were far more than mindless barbarians interested in violence alone – in fact, contemporary sources reveal they were also interested in diplomacy and eventually integrated with their sedentary neighbors. 
    	The actual history of these groups makes sense considering there were steppe nomads like them that lived in the region thousands of years earlier, back to around the time the Copper Age transitioned into the Bronze Age. The Fertile Crescent of Mesopotamia and the Levant are often referred to as the “cradle of civilization” because those lands hosted some of the world’s earliest complex societies began, but several hundred miles to the north, equally important advances in civilization were happening at the same time. North of the Caucus Mountains near the shores of the Black Sea on the Ukrainian-Russian steppes, the ancestors of Indo-European peoples were domesticating horses, dogs, and inventing the wheel in the late 5th and early 4th millennia BCE. A number of different localized ‘proto’ Indo-European cultures formed at this time that eventually coalesced into the larger culture that is today known as the Yamnaya culture. 
    	From about 3400-2600 BCE, the Yamnaya culture stretched from southeastern Europe into central Asia, greatly affecting other contemporary cultures in Europe and the Near East. The hallmarks of Yamnaya culture adopted by other cultures in the Near East and Europe include the use of metal tools and weapons.
