Beschreibung

Underground Worlds unearths the hidden history beneath our feet, exploring subterranean cities, tunnels, and bunkers that reveal human resilience. These aren't just holes in the ground; they're testaments to survival strategies, like the ancient city of Derinkuyu, built to withstand external threats, and Cold War bunkers, reflecting anxieties of a nuclear age. From architecture to history, the book examines the motivations and ingenuity behind these constructions, showcasing how societies have adapted to adversity throughout time.

 
The book's approach bridges history, archaeology, and architecture to understand human motivations, rather than simply cataloging structures. Examining wartime tunnel systems like the Cu Chi tunnels, the book analyzes their strategic role in military campaigns.

 
Progressing chapter by chapter, the book moves from ancient cities to modern survival bunkers, revealing how underground spaces reflect broader societal trends and anxieties.

    A Cat’s Tail is a tender, joyful tale of a spirited feline whose playful mischief, boundless curiosity, and quiet wisdom filled her human family’s days with laughter and love. From daring acrobatics to gentle moments of comfort, Onkyo’s adventures capture the magic of the bond between cats and the people who cherish them. 
    Told in Onkyo’s own voice—with warmth, humor, and heart—these stories celebrate the everyday miracles that make a cat unforgettable and a family whole. For anyone who has loved and lost a feline companion, this book will bring both smiles and tears; while reminding you to treasure the immeasurable joy our cats give us. 
    There are moments when pet loss grief softens into something mysterious - not quite sorrow, not quite peace – a quiet shimmer between the two worlds. In the morning, as the sunlight slanted through the window Onkyo once claimed as her throne, I felt her near. Not in sight or sound, but in that deep place the heart knows. I pierced the veil – and understood that her love for me never ends; it merely changes form. She was gone, yet utterly here.

    Crash and Burn - A CEO's crazy...

    In the cut-throat world of low-cost airlines, competition is the name of the game. Not only up in the air but also on the ground.
    Crash and Burn is an insider's tale of the South African airline industry over the past thirty years and the dramatic collapse of Comair in 2022, as told by Glenn Orsmond, twice CEO of Comair and the founder CEO of 1time. Orsmond takes the reader on a wild ride through the ultra-competitive sector of low-cost airlines that boomed after South African Airways' stranglehold on the skies was loosened in the 1990s. Comair – which operated both Kulula and British Airways – and 1time were at the forefront of this new wave of airlines that saw domestic flying and tourism take off.
    But after some incredible highs and lows, Comair crashed under Orsmond's watch despite the company's 75-year unblemished profit history. The pandemic's impact, the grounding of aeroplanes after a questionable regulator investigation and poor management decisions all contributed to its downfall.
    Expect tales of industry legends and innovation, but also of competitors trying to gut each other, battles between pilots and accountants, unions and bosses at loggerheads, and warfare between shareholders and directors in boardrooms. You'll never think of flying in South Africa in the same way again.
