  MasterChef finalist Sarah Rankin has a passion for Scottish produce and flavours and for feeding people. Being a food lover encompasses not just a passion for the ingredients themselves, but also for the seasons and weather which nurture them, and the people who tend, harvest and prepare them. Taking those ingredients and creating something delicious for those you love is the highest compliment you can pay any vegetable, beast, fish or fowl. In Kith, Sarah shares stories on her family favourites, the inspiration for her recipes, and why food is the greatest way to show your love.
  Kith is a collection of practical and inviting seasonal dishes, mixing the traditional and the contemporary, and celebrating the extraordinary versatility of Scotland's larder in a hundred recipes: from Grouse with beetroot and cherry, to Arbroath smokie souffle, Squash ravioli with sage butter, and Lemon posset with caramelised white chocolate and oat crumble. It also includes a section of drinks and canapes. The chapter 'Things of Beauty' encompasses brines, pickles, ketchups and a range of other extras that make the food you serve shine a little brighter, and a section named 'Firm Foundations' helps to arm the home cook with a repertoire of sauces, stocks, pastry, bread and pasta, and butters and creams.

  Forged in the Steppe

  In the early 13th century, a coalition of steppe clans transformed into the most dynamic war machine and governing enterprise of its age. Forged in the Steppe follows the ascent of Genghis Khan from fractured tribal politics to continental empire, tracing campaigns across North China and Central Asia and the devastating clash with the Khwarazmian state. Beyond the battlefield, it reveals how the Mongols built a state that ran on speed, law, and logistics—postal relays, multilingual chanceries, merchant partnerships, and a disciplined guard that enforced clear rules from Karakorum to Bukhara. The book explores the empire’s image among friends and foes, the balance of terror and trust, and the careful choreography of succession that carried power beyond Genghis Khan’s death in 1227. It culminates in the shock of 1241–1242, when Europe reeled at Legnica and Mohi before the riders turned back, leaving a changed political imagination in their wake. This is the story of how hoofbeats, paper, and policy remade Eurasia.

  Capitalizing on College - How...

  In Capitalizing on College Joshua Brown illustrates how tuition-driven colleges and universities have been forced to innovate and adopt market-driven financial strategies. These institutions have longstanding commitments to offering access and opportunity to marginalized students, but the promise of improved educational outcomes stemming from federal policy changes aimed at increasing market competition never materialized. Instead competition for tuition dollars meant these colleges had to adopt new strategies to find more students to offset losses.Capitalizing on College reveals how three of the strategies these schools adopted were initially successful but ultimately fell short in raising enough revenue to support operating a residential campus. Only a fourth accelerated strategy of going to scale raised the necessary funds—but at the cost of undercutting their mission by leading them to view students as dollars.Capitalizing on College reveals the untold story of the missing middle. It shows how the unanticipated consequences of federal policy changes have ultimately distorted the values of mission-driven schools. Capitalizing on College offers a timely and fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the changes shaking higher education and what the future holds for colleges and universities in this new financial climate.

  Seamus Justin Heaney (April 13, 1939 to August 30, 2013) was an Irish poet, playwright and translator. Among his best-known works is Death of a Naturalist (1966), his first major published volume. American poet Robert Lowell described Heaney as "the most important Irish poet since Yeats." Heaney delivered his Nobel Prize in Literature acceptance speech in Stockholm on December 7, 1995--a powerful defense of poetry as "the ship and the anchor" of our spirit within an ocean of violent, divisive politics and world-sorrow.
