  Independent bookshops are the unsung heroes of queer liberation, providing friendship, solidarity, and sanctuary through the ages. 
   
  Travelling from Shakespeare and Company in Paris to Gay’s the Word in London to the Oscar Wilde Memorial Bookshop in New York, A. J. West has written the first history of these remarkable spaces. Tracing their evolution from under-the-counter operations to beloved out-and-proud institutions, West reveals how they stood at the vanguard of LGBTQ+ rights, offering support through the AIDS crisis and bringing the fight to Section 28. 
   
  How Queer Bookshops Changed the World celebrates cherished shops past and present, the ground-breaking books they championed when others wouldn’t, and the booksellers who demonstrated courage and community through it all.

  "A cracking read by a great writer." – Chris Mason, BBC political editor
  "A rare, fascinating and funny look at life in the corridors of power." – Isabel Hardman, author of Why We Get the Wrong Politicians and Spectator assistant editor
  "It's the book we have long needed." – Michael Crick
  "A timely look at how some of the key relationships in Westminster work, and how they sometimes misfire." – Laura Kuenssberg, BBC presenter and former political editor
  ***
  Shadowy geniuses whispering, Rasputin-like, into the ears of our elected politicians under a cloak of secrecy, or a crucial but undervalued cog in the machinery of government? … Or just a rag-tag band of weirdos and misfits?
  Despite the acres of speculation devoted to special advisers from Alastair Campbell to Dominic Cummings, their role is much misunderstood. Who are the people Piers Morgan once called 'these miserable little creatures' and just how much influence do they have?
  Peter Cardwell served as SpAd to four Cabinet ministers, acting as media adviser, political fixer, troubleshooter and occasional wardrobe consultant. In this candid, compelling and frequently hilarious insider account, he reveals what the job really involves, from dealing with counter-terror emergencies in Cobra to explaining to the Justice Secretary what a dental dam is, to having your inside leg measured in a government office.
  Packed with advice on navigating the perks and pitfalls of the job, The Secret Life of Special Advisers will inform and entertain anyone who has ever wondered what these mysterious figures really do all day.

  A Real Right to Vote - How a...

  Throughout history, too many Americans have been disenfranchised or faced needless barriers to vote. Part of the blame falls on the Constitution, which does not contain an affirmative right to vote. The Supreme Court has made matters worse by failing to protect voting rights and limiting Congress's ability to do so. The time has come for voters to take action and push for an amendment to the Constitution that would guarantee this right for all. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on troubling stories of state attempts to disenfranchise military voters, women, African Americans, students, former felons, Native Americans, and others, Richard Hasen argues that American democracy can and should do better in assuring that all eligible voters can cast a meaningful vote that will be fairly counted. He shows how a constitutional right to vote can deescalate voting wars between political parties that lead to endless rounds of litigation and undermine voter confidence in elections, and can safeguard democracy against dangerous attempts at election subversion. 
   
   
   
  The path to a constitutional amendment is undoubtedly hard, especially in these polarized times. A Real Right to Vote explains what's in it for conservatives who have resisted voting reform, and reveals how the pursuit of an amendment can yield tangible dividends for democracy long before ratification.

  Fear of Flying Hypnosis -...

  What you are dealing with is real. 
  It is not silly. It is not weak. It is not something you should be over by now. It is one of the most common, deeply rooted, neurologically powerful fears a human being can have. And almost no one in your life truly understands what it feels like for you. 
  They see the calm cabin. The flight attendants smiling. The other passengers reading. They cannot understand why your hands have gone cold. Why your heart is racing for no visible reason. Why every small sound makes you flinch. 
  This fear has cost you. Not just in the moments on the plane, but in the slow narrowing of your life. The wedding you did not attend. The family reunion you skipped. The job opportunity you turned down because of the travel. The honeymoon that became a road trip. The dream of seeing the world that you started, quietly, to fold away. 
  Hear me clearly. 
  You are not weak. You are a nervous system trying to keep you safe in the only way it knows. 
  The reason you cannot logic your way out of this fear is that it does not live in the part of your brain that responds to logic. It lives in the amygdala, the ancient, lightning-fast threat-detection center of your brain that does not speak in numbers or evidence. Knowing the statistics has not helped because all that knowledge is happening in the wrong part of the brain. 
  To change the fear response, you have to reach the layer where the fear actually lives. The subconscious. 
  For the next four hours you will not be lectured. You will not be shamed. You will be guided gently into the deeply relaxed state where your subconscious opens, and 200 carefully crafted affirmations will begin to retrain your nervous system. This program was designed to be used at home, at the gate, during boarding, and even during the flight itself. 
  One day soon, you will board a plane and notice your hands are not shaking. Your chest is not tight. The door will close, and your stomach will not drop. The plane will taxi, and your body will relax.
