  Familiar Violence - A History of...

  Child abuse casts a long shadow over the history of childhood. Across the centuries there are numerous accounts of children being beaten, neglected, sexually assaulted, or even killed by those closest to them. This book explores this darker side of childhood history, looking at what constituted cruelty towards children in the past and at the social responses towards it. Focusing primarily on England, it is a history of violence against children in their own homes, covering a large timeframe which extends from medieval times to the present. 
   
   
   
  Undeniably, the experience of children in the past was often brutal, and children were treated with, what seems to contemporary mores, callousness and cruelty. However, historians have paid far less attention to how the mistreatment of children was understood within its contemporary context. Most parents, both now and in the past, loved their children and there have always been widely shared understandings of the boundaries that separate the acceptable treatment of children from the intolerable and morally wrong. This book will examine how these boundaries have changed and been contested over time and, in doing so, provides a context to the many forms of violence experienced by children in the past.

  At the turn of the twentieth century, sleep began to be seen not merely as a passive state but as an active, dynamic process crucial to our understanding of consciousness and identity. In Sleep Works, cultural historian and literary scholar Sebastian P. Klinger explores the intriguing connections between scientific inquiry and literary expression during an era when sleep was both a scientific mystery and a cultural fascination. 
   
   
   
  Scientists, physicians, and pharmaceutical companies were at the forefront of this newfound fascination with sleep: some researchers distinguished sleep from related states such as fatigue and hypnosis, while others investigated sleep disorders and developed treatments for insomnia. Meanwhile, literary giants like Franz Kafka and Marcel Proust grappled with their own sleep disturbances and channeled these experiences into their writing. Through the lens of their discoveries, Klinger reveals the broader implications of sleep for concepts of selfhood and agency. 
   
   
   
  Tracing the emergence of sleep science and the cultural production of sleep through literature, Sleep Works weaves together literary analysis, historical context, and research in the archives of the pharmaceutical industry to provide a comprehensive and compelling account of how sleep has been understood, represented, and experienced in the modern era.

  Winner of the Best Non-Fiction by a Parliamentarian category at the Parliamentary Book Awards 2023
  With a Foreword by Lord Hague of Richmond
  The Intelligence Corps is one of the smallest and most secretive elements of the British Army. It has existed in various guises since the early twentieth century, but it was only formally constituted in July 1940. In this book, Michael Ashcroft tells the astonishing stories of some of its most courageous and ingenious figures, who have operated all over the world from the First World War to the present day.
  Whether carrying out surveillance work on the street, monitoring and analysing communications, working on overseas stakeouts, receiving classified information from a well-placed contact or interrogating the enemy in the heat of war, a hugely diverse range of people have served in the Corps, often supplementing their individual professional skills with original thinking and leadership in the name of the Crown. This book pays tribute to them and shows why, in the words of the 1st Duke of Marlborough, 'No war can be conducted successfully without early and good intelligence.'

  The Dark Wire Exposed - The True...

  For years, some of the world’s most dangerous criminal networks believed they had outsmarted law enforcement.
   
  They relied on a secure communication system to plan drug shipments, launder money, negotiate violence, and coordinate global operations—confident their messages were invisible.
   
  They were wrong.
   
  The Dark Wire Exposed reveals how a covert operation infiltrated global organized crime by controlling the very system criminals trusted. Investigators were able to monitor activity in real time, track networks across continents, and gather intelligence on an unprecedented scale.
   
  Through detailed reporting, the book uncovers the hidden infrastructure behind modern crime—and the strategy that brought it down. Smugglers, financiers, and enforcers communicated openly, unaware their trust had become their greatest weakness. Their messages exposed not only criminal plans, but routines, rivalries, and mistakes.
   
  But access came at a cost.
   
  As the operation expanded, investigators faced difficult choices—when to intervene, when to wait, and how to balance secrecy, ethics, and public safety. The deeper the surveillance, the greater the risk of exposure.
   
  When secrecy collapsed, the consequences were global. Arrests followed across multiple countries, networks unraveled, and trust disappeared overnight. The operation also sparked debate about surveillance, privacy, and the limits of law enforcement in the digital age.
   
  Written with the pace of a thriller and the depth of investigative journalism, this book explores modern crime, intelligence, and control. It is a story of systems, decisions, and consequences that continue to shape how crime is fought—and how communication is trusted.
   
  This is the inside story of a historic sting operation—and its lasting impact.
