  Uncover Meaning in Humanity’s Darkest Moments  
  WITH A FOREWORD BY DR. PHILIP STONE  
    
  In Beyond the Darkness: Transformative Journeys Through Dark Tourism, Dr. Chad Scott, multi-category #1 Amazon bestselling author, takes readers on a deeply personal and thought-provoking exploration of some of history’s most profound and challenging sites.  
  From the solemn corridors of Auschwitz to the shadowy depths of the Paris Catacombs and the reflective spaces of Ground Zero, Dr. Scott doesn’t just explore the physical remnants of tragedy—he uncovers their emotional and transformative potential. With vivid storytelling and personal reflections, he examines how even the world’s darkest chapters can teach us resilience, compassion, and the strength of the human spirit. Far more than a travel memoir, this is a powerful testament to how dark tourism allows us to connect with the past to find meaning in our own lives.  
  Beyond the Darkness asks questions that linger long after the journey ends:  
  What can we learn from humanity’s most difficult moments?  
  How do these places help us confront our own struggles, mortality, and capacity for growth?  
  What does it mean to bear witness to history and come away forever changed?  
  Perfect for readers of Anthony Bourdain’s adventurous spirit, Viktor Frankl’s exploration of meaning, and Sheryl Strayed’s personal vulnerability, this is for anyone drawn to powerful travel writing and meaningful history—a guide to finding hope, strength, and clarity in the shadows.

  New Grub Street by George Gissing is a compelling exploration of the literary world and the struggles of writers in late 19th-century London. The novel contrasts two authors: Edwin Reardon, a talented but impoverished novelist who values artistic integrity, and Jasper Milvain, an ambitious opportunist who prioritizes commercial success. As they navigate the harsh realities of the publishing industry, Reardon’s dedication to his craft leaves him financially ruined and emotionally broken, while Milvain’s pragmatic approach propels him to fame and fortune. Gissing critiques the commodification of art, the sacrifices demanded by poverty, and the moral compromises of ambition. Through its vivid characters and unflinching portrayal of societal pressures, New Grub Street examines the tension between art and commerce, offering a poignant reflection on the cost of creativity in a materialistic world. A timeless classic, it resonates with anyone who has grappled with the pursuit of success versus staying true to one’s ideals.

  ‘A funny, irreverent and loving book’ Daily Express 
  ‘We had such a variety of experts visiting our home, we really needed a revolving door. All these professionals would watch our son playing while shaking their heads and making tutting sounds, like builders considering a bad job you wanted them to fix. “Tut tut tut. No speech, disordered social skills, sensory issues. This is going to cost you!!”’ 
  Ashley Blaker has six children, three of whom have an SEN diagnosis. Between endless meetings, countless therapists, public humiliations, failed playdates, surreal monologues and occasional violence, it’s certainly not what anyone would call a ‘normal’ household – but would he want it any other way? 
  Normal Schmormal is part-memoir, part how-to guide, highlighting the many challenges, as well as the hugely rewarding elements, of parenting children with additional needs. Written with humour, compassion and a lot of love, it’s a must-read for parents, carers and teachers of children with SEN, either looking for a bit of support or in need of a very big laugh. 
  In Normal Schmormal, Ashley Blaker, a father and comedian, takes us on a humorous and heartwarming journey through the challenges and rewards of raising children with special needs. This latest autobiography is a must-read for parents, carers, and teachers alike, offering a unique perspective on fatherhood, family, and fostering relationships with children with disabilities. 
  For fans of Eliza Fricker (Nurturing Your Autistic Young Person), Dr. Naomi Fisher (The Teenager's Guide to Burnout), Ellie Middleton (How to be You), Lisa C. Qualls (Faith, Hope, & Connection), and Catherine L. Abbott (Mindful Parenting for Autistic Children).
