Summary

Rebel Leaders examines the lives and legacies of those who challenged established power, exploring the motivations and strategies behind historical rebellions. By analyzing figures from diverse backgrounds, the book provides insights into the dynamics of power, resistance, and social change. It highlights the ethical dilemmas inherent in revolutionary movements and the long-term consequences of challenging authority. One intriguing fact is that while rebel leaders often possess charisma and strategic thinking, their success hinges on adaptability and broad-based support. The book takes a comparative approach, drawing parallels and contrasts between leaders from different eras and cultures. Beginning with a framework for understanding rebellion and key themes like propaganda and violence, it progresses through case studies analyzing leadership styles and the conditions enabling their rise. It then culminates with an assessment of their contributions to political thought and social reform. This book is valuable for students of history, political science, and general readers interested in understanding power dynamics.

    Could you survive alone, for 2 months at sea in a dugout canoe? 
In 1846, James Morrill survived a shipwreck on Australia’s north coast. Though the young sailor was then embraced by the local Indigenous community, in Modern-Day Castaway, Michael Atkinson asks, ‘Could James have built a vessel and made the perilous journey to a historic rescue haven in the Torres Strait?’ 
With the cyclone season fast approaching, Alone Australia contestant and solo adventurer, Mike Atkinson, sets sail on an extraordinary 1500-kilometre journey to the northern tip of Australia. His aim: to live entirely off the land and sea. 
As malnourishment drains his body, Mike navigates his failing dugout canoe through the treacherous waters of the Great Barrier Reef, and along the wild and unforgiving coastline of Cape York. From crocodile defence tactics, to calamitous canoe failure, to fishing with adapted Indigenous tools, Modern-Day Castaway journals Mike’s epic struggle for survival. 
This is a truly unique book. A cross between Tom Hanks Castaway (although this story is real, not fiction!), a genuine shipwrecked sailor’s tale and Mike’s awe-inspiring journey of discovery.

    Married just a few months, Marianne gradually discovers that her husband is self-centered and domineering. Attractive and charming in public, he belittles her in private, imposes his habits and favors his own career over that of his wife. Psychological violence is compounded by physical violence.
Marianne learns to decipher the moods of this perverse man, and implements strategies to avoid conflict and protect her three children. Not daring to talk about it, and because she thinks her children need their father, she lives ten years in the lion's den. 
Years after her divorce, she still dreads returning home. Time is what she needs to rebuild her life. 
Now, she offers a thoughtful account of the mechanisms of narcissistic perversity and withdrawal, and urges women to stop keeping silent.
