Synopsis

Ancient Clan Wars explores how ancient conflicts influenced the development of indigenous societies. It examines the role of warfare in shaping social hierarchies, forging alliances, and driving migrations. The book uniquely integrates archaeological findings, anthropological studies, and historical accounts to provide a holistic view of ancient warfare. For instance, the analysis reveals how resource scarcity often exacerbated territorial disputes, leading to innovations in battle strategies and weaponry.

The book argues that warfare was not merely destructive but a fundamental driver of social, political, and cultural change. It reshaped territories and altered social structures, with martial prowess often determining status. Examining case studies from the Americas, Oceania, and Africa, the book details specific battle strategies and their societal impacts. These case studies emphasize how ancient warfare served as a catalyst for significant social change, challenging conventional views that depict it as purely chaotic.

Structured in three parts, the book first introduces core concepts like territoriality and social stratification. It then delves into specific case studies, analyzing unique battle strategies and their consequences. Finally, it synthesizes these studies to highlight broader patterns, demonstrating how warfare influenced migration, technology, and social hierarchies across diverse cultures. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of the role of ancient clan wars in shaping the ancient world.

Follow the Flock - How Sheep...

Sally Coulthard

An addictively free-ranging survey of the massive impact that the humble and loveable sheep have had on human history.From the plains of ancient Mesopotamia to the rolling hills of medieval England to the vast sheep farms of modern-day Australia, the domesticated ungulates of the genus Ovis—sheep—have been central to the human story.Starting with our Neolithic ancestors' first forays into sheep-rearing nearly 10,000 years ago, these remarkable animals have fed us, clothed us, changed our diet and languages, helped us to win wars, decorated our homes, and financed the conquest of large swathes of the earth. Enormous fortunes and new, society-changing industries have been made from the fleeces of sheep, and cities shaped by shepherds' markets and meat trading.Sally Coulthard weaves the rich and fascinating story of sheep into a vivid and colorful tapestry, thickly threaded with engaging anecdotes and remarkable ovine facts, whose multiple strands reflect the deep penetration of these woolly animals into every aspect of human society and culture.

Pandemic Diaries - The inside...

Isabel Oakeshott, Matt Hancock

When Covid-19 swept the world, governments scrambled to protect their citizens and chart a course back to normality. As Health Secretary, Matt Hancock was at the forefront of Britain's battle against the virus, trying to steer the country through the crisis in a world where information was scarce, judgements huge and the roadmap non-existent.
Drawing on a wealth of never-before-seen material, including official records, his notes at the time and communications with all the key players in Britain's Covid-19 story, this candid account reveals the inner workings of government during a time of national crisis, reflecting on both the successes and the failures.
Recounting the most important decisions in the race to develop a vaccine in record time and to build a nationwide testing capacity from the ground up, Pandemic Diaries provides the definitive account of Britain's battle to turn the tide against Covid-19. Crucially, it also offers an honest assessment of the lessons we need to learn to be prepared for next time – because there will be a next time.

Governing by Fake News

Jacques Baud

What are Islamic State is seeking to create a civil war in France; that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad used chemical weapons; that Vladimir Putin is trying to destabilise our democracies; that terrorism has struck France, not for what it does, but for what it is; that the genocide in Darfur has claimed 400,000 victims?... Literally none, but these assertions are enough to establish the foreign policy of Western countries. The author, a former agent of the Swiss strategic intelligence service, reviews the main contemporary conflicts that Western countries have managed with fake news over the last thirty years. Jacques Baud, a colonel, chemical and nuclear weapons expert, trained in counter-terrorism and counter-guerrilla warfare, designed the Geneva International Centre for Humanitarian Demining (GICHD) and its Information Management System for Mine Action (IMSMA). In the service of the United Nations, he served as Chief of Doctrine for Peacekeeping Operations in New York, and was engaged in Africa. In NATO, he led the fight against the proliferation of small arms. He is the author of several books on intelligence, asymmetric warfare and terrorism. 
This audiobook is read by a synthesized voice.

Lesbians - Where are we now?

Julie Bindel

'Bracing, nourishing and wonderfully pro-woman'Victoria Smith, author of Hags
'A big-hearted, infuriating, clever and highly entertaining read, just like the woman who wrote it' Kathleen Stock, author of Material Girls
'Personal, passionate memoir-cum-cultural commentary' New Statesman
'Excellent ... Discursive and engaging' Susanna Rustin, author of Sexed: A History of British Feminism
What does it mean to be a lesbian now? Has the quest for lesbian liberation stalled, and if so, why?
Part-memoir, part frontline reportage and part cultural commentary, Julie Bindel examines what defines lesbian culture, love, friendship and happiness today. She distinguishes the particular challenges facing lesbians from the very different experiences of gay men, and asks: why do lesbians so often seem to face particular hostility? Comparing past attitudes to today, she argues that lesbians continue to suffer from bigotry and discrimination because sexism and enforced gendered roles are still left unchallenged. She explores why many of the biggest assaults on lesbian freedom and wellbeing around the world now come, not just from conservatives, but also from so-called progressives, who are often antagonistic to lesbians organising and socialising autonomously.
Rooted in her own remarkable story, this personal and passionate book is both an investigation into the obstacles to lesbian flourishing, and a testament to the particular delights of being a lesbian.
