  1922: Scenes from a Turbulent...

  1922 was a year of great turbulence and upheaval. Its events reverberated throughout the rest of the twentieth century and still affect us today, 100 years later. 
   
  Empires fell. The Ottoman Empire collapsed after more than six centuries. The British Empire had reached its greatest extent but its heyday was over. The Irish Free State was declared and demands for independence in India grew. New nations and new politics came into existence. The Soviet Union was officially created and Mussolini's Italy became the first Fascist state. 
   
  In the USA, Prohibition was at its height. The Hollywood film industry, although rocked by a series of scandals, continued to grow. A new mass medium - radio - was making its presence felt and, in Britain, the BBC was founded. In literature it was the year of peak modernism. Both T. S. Eliot's The Waste Land and James Joyce's Ulysses were first published in full. 
   
  In society, already changed by the trauma of war and pandemic, the morals of the past seemed increasingly outmoded; new ways of behaving were making their appearance. The Roaring Twenties had begun to roar and the Jazz Age had arrived. 
   
  1922 also saw the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb, the arrest of Mahatma Gandhi, the death of Marcel Proust, the election of a new pope, the release of the first major vampire movie, and the brief imprisonment in Munich of an obscure right-wing demagogue named Adolf Hitler. 
   
  In a sequence of vivid sketches, Nick Rennison conjures up all the drama and diversity of an extraordinary year. 
   
  "Its eclecticism worked brilliantly... tremendous, beguiling." WILLIAM BOYD

  The Complete History of Ancient...

  The story of Ancient Egypt begins along the fertile banks of the Nile River, where geography shaped the destiny of one of the world’s most iconic civilizations. The Nile provided more than just water—it was the lifeline that enabled agriculture, transportation, and trade, making permanent settlement possible in an otherwise arid desert. As early as 5000 BCE, small communities began to emerge, relying on the predictable flooding of the river to support grain cultivation. Over time, these settlements evolved into more complex societies, each developing distinct cultural and political practices. 
  The predynastic period saw the rise of two major regions: Upper Egypt in the south and Lower Egypt in the north. These regions were marked by different customs, burial practices, and artistic expressions, yet both shared a reverence for the Nile and its central role in life and death. Villages grew into city-states ruled by local chieftains, and as competition and alliances formed, a gradual move toward centralization began. Archaeological evidence, including pottery styles and tomb construction, shows increasing social stratification and technological innovation during this period. 
  The unification of Upper and Lower Egypt around 3100 BCE marks the beginning of pharaonic rule and the dynastic era. Traditionally attributed to a ruler named Narmer (also known as Menes), this event was not just a political milestone but also a cultural one. Narmer’s unification is immortalized on the Narmer Palette, a ceremonial artifact that symbolically represents the king’s authority over both lands. With unification came the birth of a centralized administration, standardized religious practices, and a single ruler who was seen not only as a political leader but also as a divine intermediary between the gods and the people.

  Awkward - The Science of Why...

  In the vein of Quiet and The Geeks Shall Inherit the Earth comes this illuminating look at what it means to be awkward—and how the same traits that make us socially anxious and cause embarrassing faux pas also provide the seeds for extraordinary success. 
  As humans, we all need to belong. While modern social life can make even the best of us feel gawky, for roughly one in five of us, navigating its challenges is consistently overwhelming—an ongoing maze without an exit. Often unable to grasp social cues or master the skills and grace necessary for smooth interaction, we feel out of sync with those around us. Though individuals may recognize their awkward disposition, they rarely understand why they are like this—which makes it hard for them to know how to adjust their behavior. 
  Psychologist and interpersonal relationship expert Ty Tashiro knows what it’s like to be awkward. Growing up, he could do math in his head and memorize the earned run averages of every National League starting pitcher. But he couldn’t pour liquids without spilling and habitually forgot to bring his glove to Little League games. In Awkward, he unpacks decades of research into human intelligence, neuroscience, personality, and sociology to help us better understand this widely shared trait. He explores its nature vs. nurture origins, considers how the awkward view the world, and delivers a welcome counterintuitive message: the same characteristics that make people socially clumsy can be harnessed to produce remarkable achievements.  
  Interweaving the latest research with personal tales and real world examples, Awkward offers reassurance and provides valuable insights into how we can embrace our personal quirks and unique talents to harness our awesome potential—and more comfortably navigate our complex world.
