  A heart-wrenching personal account of the ongoing devastation in Gaza by an ordinary citizen who bears witness to the undoing of his community and homeland
  		 
  The human tragedy unfolding in Gaza has been made all the more tragic by the widespread denial and apathy expressed by much of the rest of the world. Here is an urgent first-hand account of life and death in Gaza, written not by a war correspondent, but an ordinary citizen whose life was upended when the genocide began.
  		 
  In the midst of the chaos, Hassan began posting about his daily experiences on Reddit. Three activists, moved by his words, started collecting his posts without a clear plan - only the conviction that his story needed to be seen and the hope that somehow, it might help raise funds for him. By chance, those posts found their way to award-winning author Yasuko Thanh, who helped Hassan frame them for a book.
  		 
  Hassan's missives are a vivid, heartbreaking account of war and its toll - on families, on children, on innocent civilians. These are stories of hunger, survival, and death. These are stories that demand to be heard. And yet, stories like these are not being told: Mainstream media has largely remained silent. Foreign journalists are barred from Gaza. Local journalists are being killed. In this vacuum, Hassan's voice breaks through out of the darkness and into the light.
  		 
  Pizza Before We Die is literary journalism at its rawest and most urgent - clear eyed, unflinching, and deeply humane. Hassan captures the unspeakable horror of the tragedy in Gaza with restraint and precision, never sensationalizing, always bearing witness. It is a work of raw power and emotion, and a reminder that in the midst of chaos and tragedy, our shared humanity remains intact.

  In the heart of Indonesia, amidst the verdant landscapes of Lebak Regency, lies a remarkable testament to centuries of unwavering commitment to nature’s embrace. Here, a pristine forest thrives, untouched by the relentless march of modern degradation. This sanctuary owes its existence to the Baduy tribe, also known as the Kanekes people, and their revered leader, Pu’un. For generations, Pu’un has masterfully safeguarded this ecological haven, ensuring its preservation through a unique leadership style deeply rooted in traditional values and a profound understanding of cultural sustainability. 
  This ethnographic study delves into the holistic management practiced by the Pu’un of the Baduy tribe, exploring a leadership paradigm that transcends conventional approaches. It unravels the intricate threads of their traditional governance, the profound methods by which values are instilled, and the very source of Pu’un’s enduring knowledge. As the world grapples with escalating environmental crises, the wisdom of the Baduy offers a compelling alternative—a model where human existence and natural harmony are inextricably linked, guided by a leadership that prioritizes the delicate balance of the universe over transient gains. This exploration seeks to illuminate the potential applications of such a holistic approach within contemporary management science, particularly in the critical domain of environmental and natural conservation.

  Last Rights: The Fight to Save the 7th Amendment shines a bright spotlight on a grave but often overlooked effort by large corporate interests to undermine America's civil justice system and consumer rights. Trailblazing plaintiff’s lawyer, Jeffrey B. Simon, wrote this book as a rallying cry for anyone who has ever been wronged by a rigged system of laws. Through riveting tales of real courtroom drama, Simon exposes the insidious influence of corporate greed and political power weaponized to repeal personal rights and weaken public safety. Last Rights is a wake-up call to consumers and lawmakers to take collective, corrective action before restoration of our civil justice system becomes unachievable. This is essential reading for anyone who cares about the future of our country, and a call to action for those who believe in justice and fairness.

  From Max Hastings comes a collection of talks and lectures exploring the wars of the 20th century with the verve, insight and originality that has made him a number one bestselling historian. 
  What is war like to live through, for civilian victims, especially women, as well as soldiers, sailors and fliers? Hastings has been a life-long student of warfare, a ‘chronicler of conflict’, working first as a foreign correspondent on battlefields, then as a prolific prize-winning historian of the 20th century’s greatest struggles. He has now been studying warfare for over fifty years, published thirty books, and given hundreds of talks and lectures. Here are thirteen of the best. 
  Addressing questions of truth versus myth and revisiting many last-generation narratives, Hastings leads us through the most important conflicts in recent times. Listen as he explores D-Day, the Dambusters raid, Churchill’s character and achievement as war leader, Vietnam, and – in his most recent book, published in 2022, the Cuban missile crisis – 13 days when we came closest to annihilation and which stands as a mirror to the grave threats the world faces today. 
  Max Hastings, the Sunday Times bestselling author, delves into the modern history of warfare, shedding light on the political relations that have shaped the world. His international acclaim is a testament to his top-notch storytelling and deep understanding of geopolitics. 
  For fans of Stephen E. Ambrose (Wild Blue), Antony Beevor (D-Day), Al Murray (Arnhem), Damien Lewis (SAS Daggers Drawn), and Winston S. Churchill (The Hinge of Fate).
