  Winner of the Pushkin House Book Prize 2023 
  *A Telegraph Book of the Year*  
  A Times Best Book of Summer 2023 
  *Shortlisted for the Parliamentary Book Awards* 
  An astonishing investigation into the start of the Russo-Ukrainian war – from the corridors of the Kremlin to the trenches of Mariupol. 
  The Russo-Ukrainian War is the most serious geopolitical crisis since the Second World War – and yet at the heart of the conflict is a mystery. Vladimir Putin apparently lurched from a calculating, subtle master of opportunity to a reckless gambler, putting his regime – and Russia itself – at risk of destruction. Why? 
  Drawing on over 25 years’ experience as a correspondent in Moscow, as well as his own family ties to Russia and Ukraine, journalist Owen Matthews takes us through the poisoned historical roots of the conflict, into the Covid bubble where Putin conceived his invasion plans in a fog of paranoia about Western threats, and finally into the inner circle around Ukrainian president and unexpected war hero Volodimir Zelensky. 
  Using the accounts of current and former insiders from the Kremlin and its propaganda machine, the testimony of captured Russian soldiers and on-the-ground reporting from Russia and Ukraine, Overreach tells the story not only of the war’s causes but how the first six months unfolded. 
  With its panoramic view, Overreach is an authoritative, unmissable record of a conflict that shocked Europe to its core. 
  In Overreach, Owen Matthews masterfully unravels the complex tapestry of history, geopolitics, and conflicts that have defined the Soviet Union. This top-tier work is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the wars and crimes that have shaped our world. 
  For fans of Simon Scarrow (The Honour of Rome), Antony Beevor (Russia), Bill Browder (Orden de embargo. Una historia real de blanqueo de dinero, asesinatos y...), Mark Galeotti (Russia’s Wars in Chechnya), and Robert Peston (WTF?).

  Can we make truth great again?

  During the 2024 US presidential campaign, the proliferation of lies reached an unprecedented level. This confirms that we have entered the era of post-truth and alternative facts. Beyond true and false, anyone can claim their interpretation and narrative. Is there a way to prevent fake news and political manipulation that threaten democracy?
  This essay traces the path that has led to this relativism over the last forty years on both sides of the ideological spectrum: the reign of storytelling, the empire of emotion, identity politics, victimization, autofiction, cancelation, philosophical deconstruction, the virtualization of the world by artificial intelligence… have all decimated universal reason. To save truth and the positivity of facts, François Noudelmann explores other resources, such as indignation in the face of lies and the alliance of doubt and revolt, which allow us to still believe in a common language.

  Survival of the Richest - Escape...

  The tech elite have a plan to survive the apocalypse: They want to leave us all behind. 
   
  Five mysterious billionaires summoned theorist Douglas Rushkoff to a desert resort for a private talk.  
   
  The topic? How to survive the “Event”: the societal catastrophe they know is coming. Rushkoff came to understand that these men were under the influence of The Mindset, a Silicon Valley–style certainty that they and their cohort can break the laws of physics, economics, and morality to escape a disaster  
  of their own making—as long as they have enough money and the right technology. 
   
  In Survival of the Richest, Rushkoff traces the origins of The Mindset in science and technology through its current expression in missions to Mars, island bunkers, AI futurism, and the metaverse. In a dozen urgent, electrifying chapters, he confronts tech utopianism, the datafication of all human interaction,  
  and the exploitation of that data by corporations. Through fascinating characters—master programmers who want to remake the world from scratch as if redesigning a video game and bankers who return from Burning Man convinced that incentivized capitalism is the solution to environmental  
  disasters—Rushkoff explains why those with the most power to change our current trajectory have no interest in doing so. And he shows how recent forms of anti-mainstream rebellion—QAnon, for example, or meme stocks—reinforce the same destructive order. 
   
  This mind-blowing work of social analysis shows us how to transcend the landscape The Mindset created—a world alive with algorithms and intelligences actively rewarding our most selfish tendencies—and rediscover community, mutual aid, and human interdependency. In a thundering  
  conclusion, Survival of the Richest argues that the only way to survive the coming catastrophe is to ensure it doesn’t happen in the first place.
