  Following on from the hugely popular Treasury of Folklore: Seasand Rivers and Woodlands and Forests comes Treasury of Folklore: Stars and Skies, an exploration of the mysteries of the stars, skies and heavens above.
  People have gazed up at the same stars for millennia, trading stories about them; conjuring gods and goddesses; mapping the constellations; and navigating the complex human world below. The tales, traditions and myths included here traverse countries and continents and have been chosen to highlight how humans are linked through time and place, with shared dreams, fears and ways of rationalising the unknown.
  Under 'Stars and Heavens' Willow delves into rosy fingered dawn and the hubris of Icarus, the Greek myths surrounding the constellations and the omen of meteors, the trials of the Hawaiian goddess Hina and the legend of the rabbit in the moon. In the section on 'Skies' we are introduced to winged Pegasus and the Firebird, the Witch of Westray and stories of storms, the mysteries of the Northern Lights and unexplained UFOs. 
  Treasury of Folklore: Stars and Skies is a fascinating portal into a rich history of myths surrounding the sky, an aspect of the natural world that continues to fascinate and confound.

  A Roving Eye - Selected Essays

  R.W. Johnson

  R.W. Johnson's articles and essays travel far beyond Southern Africa, reaching readers across continents. Their appeal lies not only in their acuity but also in his exceptional range of subjects – political, historical and cultural. As a former Oxford don and a leading international commentator, Johnson remains unmatched as an interpreter of national and world events.
  Whether he's writing about politics in South Africa, Europe or the United States, the new space race, the leading personalities of our time, or even soccer, his views are always sharp, clear, deeply informed and original.
  These essays belong unmistakably to the tradition of George Orwell. Orwell aspired to make political writing an art form, but his finest essays – even those on seemingly trivial subjects such as boys' comics – revealed both a penetrating intelligence and remarkable breadth. Johnson's writing is similar in spirit: like Orwell's, his essays can be read consecutively or dipped into at random, each one offering something striking and original.
  The result is A Roving Eye, a book that is not just distinctive but truly unique, marked by depth, range, humanity and a rare sophistication.
  R.W. Johnson, author of 17 books and innumerable articles, attended schools in the UK and South Africa, did his first degree at the University of Natal and was then a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford. For 26 years he was a Fellow and Tutor at Magdalen College, Oxford and he remains a Fellow of the College. An expert in French, British, American and South African politics, his books have ranged over all these interests and for many years he also wrote for The (London) Times, Sunday Times, the London Review of Books, Le Monde Diplomatique and other titles in the international media. Johnson's writings have been widely praised and have often excited controversy. He is a master of the essay form and his essays have had a wide circulation. He is married to the Russian scholar, Irina Filatova, and they live in Cape Town.

  In the shadows of history, some stories challenge our understanding of humanity. 'The Sterilization Experiments: The Barbaric Legacy of Carl Clauberg' is one such story. 
  The atrocities committed during the Nazi era are a dark stain on human history. Among the many horrors of this period were the medical experiments conducted on concentration camp prisoners by Nazi doctors. One of the most notorious of these doctors was Carl Clauberg, an expert in gynecology who was tasked with developing a method for sterilizing women quickly and inexpensively. Clauberg's experiments were carried out with a callous disregard for human life and dignity, resulting in immeasurable suffering for his victims. The legacy of these experiments continues to shape our understanding of medical ethics, human rights, and the dangers of unchecked power and ideology.  
  The Sterilization Experiments' is not just a recounting of facts; it is a solemn reminder of the depths to which humanity can sink and a call to remember the victims who endured unimaginable suffering. 
  This book is an essential read for those who seek to understand the true cost of hatred and the importance of vigilance against such evils. It challenges us to confront the past and ensure that such atrocities never happen again.

  Connection is the desire to be understood. 
  It is the human need to feel seen, heard, and emotionally met — not merely surrounded by others, but genuinely bonded to them. 
  In this audiobook, Reece Wideman explores what connection really is, how it shapes relationships and buying decisions, and why humans will sacrifice comfort, convenience, and even logic to experience emotional closeness. 
  Listeners will gain insight into trust, vulnerability, community, and the difference between surface interaction and meaningful connection — learning how connection, when mastered, creates depth, resilience, and long-term commitment.
