  Trust is the cornerstone of human relationships, whether personal, professional, or societal. It is the belief that others will act with integrity, honor their commitments, and respect our boundaries. Trust provides a sense of security, allowing us to open ourselves up to others, share our vulnerabilities, and work collaboratively toward common goals. When trust is present, relationships thrive on mutual respect and understanding. However, when trust is violated, the very foundation of these relationships is shattered. 
  A trust violation occurs when someone breaks the confidence that has been placed in them. This breach can take many forms: from small betrayals like breaking a promise to major violations such as lying, cheating, or stealing. The consequences of a trust violation are profound, as they not only damage the relationship but also affect the individual’s emotional and psychological well-being. Trust violations often result in feelings of betrayal, hurt, confusion, and a loss of confidence in others. These emotional reactions can be difficult to overcome and may lead to long-lasting consequences. 
  In this book, we explore the different facets of trust violations, from their causes to their effects, as well as strategies for healing and rebuilding trust. Understanding the nature of trust violations is essential for recognizing how they affect us and those around us. By examining the psychological, emotional, and social consequences of betrayal, we can begin to understand the complexities of the experience and the challenges involved in overcoming it.

  Why It's OK to Eat Meat

  In Why It's OK to Eat Meat, Dan C. Shahar argues the answer is no: it's entirely possible to be an ethical person while continuing to eat meat—and not just the "fancy" offerings from the farmers' market but also the regular meat we find at most supermarkets and restaurants. Shahar's examination forcefully echoes vegetarians' concerns about the meat industry's impacts on animals, workers, the environment, and public health. However, he shows that the most influential ethical arguments for avoiding meat on the basis of these considerations are ultimately unpersuasive. Instead of insisting we all become vegetarians, Shahar argues each of us has broad latitude to choose which of the world's problems to tackle. 
   
   
   
  Key Features include: 
   
   
   
  ● First book-length defense of meat-eating written for a popular audience 
   
   
   
  ● Punchy, accessible introduction to the multifaceted debate over the ethics of eating meat 
   
   
   
  ● Includes pioneering new examinations of humane labeling practices 
   
   
   
  ● Shows why appeals to universalized patterns of behavior can't vindicate vegetarians' claims that there's a duty to avoid meat 
   
   
   
  ● Develops a novel theory of ethical activism with potential applications to a wide range of other issues

  'Engaging, absorbing and crammed with marvellous stories, Finding Endurance is a tale about exploring the cold, told with much warmth.' MICK HERRON
  
  'Beautiful, thrilling, heroic and kind, a ripping yarn' CLAIRE ROBERTSON, AUTHOR OF THE SPIRAL HOUSE
  
  'Tender, heartfelt and lyrical' PETINA GAPPAH, AUTHOR OF OUT OF DARKNESS, SHINING LIGHT
  
  'An exhilarating read' HENRIETTA ROSE-INNES, AUTHOR OF GREEN LION
  
  Since the discovery of the wreck of Ernest Shackleton's ship Endurance on the bed of the Antarctic ocean, the world has been enthralled anew by one of the greatest stories of all time.
  
  Acclaimed South African writer Darrel Bristow-Bovey, himself a Shackleton aficionado, revisits this dramatic event, which managed to sweep the tide of anger and rancour off the timelines and front pages of the world.
  
  He asks how so many ordinary people, who don't know a nunatak from a barquentine, were so moved at the finding of a small wooden ship once sailed by a half-forgotten Irishman? In re-examining the story and its players, he presents new details and a new understanding of the courage and hardship of the Endurance voyage, and reminds us of how extraordinary humans can be. Not all is lost, and what has been lost can be regained: the ocean has given us something back.
  
  What's more, we are reminded that miracles still happen: human miracles, performed by flawed people in helpless situations.
