  Leibniz’s Monads - Because...

  Ever wondered what reality is made of? If you're thinking atoms, molecules, or maybe regret and caffeine, think again. According to Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz—17th-century genius, calculus co-inventor, and metaphysical madlad—the universe is made of tiny, windowless soul-particles called monads. They don’t touch, don’t talk, and yet still manage to reflect the entire cosmos like cosmic disco balls of divine insight. 
  In Leibniz’s Monads: Because Particles with Feelings Totally Make Sense, Sophia Blackwell (author of Kant You Not) returns with another brutally honest, laugh-out-loud, actually-informative tour through one of philosophy’s weirdest, most ambitious systems. From the problem of evil to quantum physics, ecology to ethics, this book unpacks Leibniz’s windowless wonders and shows how his soul-marbles still haunt modern science, spirituality, and your existential crisis at 2am. 
  Perfect for students, armchair philosophers, or anyone who wants to understand metaphysics without crying in German. 
  Inside, you’ll learn: 
  What monads are (and why they’re basically metaphysical Tamagotchis) 
  Why your soul is pre-synced with the universe like a divine group project 
  How this is somehow the best possible world (yes, even with all of… this) 
  What quantum physics, computer science, and modern consciousness studies owe to a guy who never left Leipzig 
  And why Leibniz remains philosophy’s most lovable, logic-obsessed optimist 
  If you like philosophy that doesn’t take itself too seriously—but still takes ideas seriously—this book is for you. 
  Warning: May cause sudden belief in soul-particles. Or at least very polite existential confusion.

  P.G. Wodehouse, the master of British humor, produced dozens of books and hundreds of short stories in his long and prolific career. But none of his creations has quite captured the world's imagination as much as his bumbling, empty-headed, man-about-town Bertie Wooster and Bertie's faithful, knight-in-shining tuxedo Jeeves.  Collected here are three of Wodehouse's most beloved "Jeeves and Wooster" tales - including ten short stories from the anthology "Carry On, Jeeves," as well as the complete novels "The Inimitable Jeeves" and "Right Ho, Jeeves" - each a master class in comedic writing. ("Carry On, Jeeves" also features the only Wooster and Jeeves story narrated by Jeeves himself!)   Along with Jeeves and Bertie, we are introduced to an entire cast of beloved Wodehouse characters: Madeline Bassett, Bingo Little, James "Corky" Corcoran, Honoria Glossop, Rockmetteller Todd and the terrifying and bombastic Aunt Agatha.  These three books are presented here in their original and unabridged form.

  Almost everyone has fond memories of being with animals when they were young, it is what makes people try to reproduce the situation either for themselves or their children, but what most people forget, is that their parents trained those animals, they did not just come like that. 
  There is no such thing as a perfect pet, perfect dog, perfect human or perfect anything. There is as good as you`re going to get, as best as you can make it and what best suits you. 
  Dogs of a certain breed may share some behavioural characteristics. For example, most Labradors enjoy swimming and love to fetch a ball or a stick, because retrieving fallen game is what they were designed to do. There are exceptions to every rule, but knowing a breed`s designed behavioural (as well as physical) characteristics will help you to decide on a dog that will likely be a good fit for you and your lifestyle. 
  The more research you do before you go to choose your dog, the more likely you are to get the best dog for you and / or your family or environment. 
  You are taking the right first step now by considering this book.

  How to Cook a Wolf

  “I do not know of any one in the United States who writes better prose.” —W. H. Auden 
  A practical, culinary, and philosophical guide on how to eke out joy and delight in difficult times.  
  There is perhaps no other book that speaks so powerfully to hunger and its pangs and to the ingenuity of those who seek to cook their way out of its snapping jaws. Originally written in the depths of World War II and then revised in the shadow of the Cold War, How to Cook a Wolf is at turns both haunting and ennobling—a study in finding joy and delectation in a world being deprived of both. Rather than succumb to the predations of the wolf—and the wolf is hunger, and the wolf is adversity and scarcity—M.F.K. Fisher enjoins her readers to raise a bulwark against precarity and to find deliciousness in unaccustomed places. And even when the table can only be sparely supplied, there will at least be the feast of writing, memories, and wisdom that this classic on hunger and feasting provides.
