  A Brief History of the Coast in...

  An immersive history of our coasts and the people who have shaped them 
  The coast means something different to everyone. 
  It’s a place of pleasure and reckless pursuits, of fishing, fearless endeavours and a crashing, rugged beauty. The coast is, and always has been, our first line of defence and our springboard to other cultures. 
  Through the lens of 100 carefully selected objects, this treasure chest of a book delves into the myriad ways our coastlines have shaped, and been shaped by, our history, culture, and identity. From Roman lighthouses to rosary beads, knitted jumpers to Viking slave shackles, each object serves as a portal to a unique story. 
  Sally Coulthard’s engaging narrative goes far beyond the traditional seaside holiday to illuminate the coast’s role as a first line of defence, a site of trade, and a catalyst for cultural exchange. Readers will discover how the coast has influenced our beliefs, economy, and even our domestic lives. And, looking out to sea, this book will show how Britain’s story is anchored to those of our European neighbours and of faraway lands. 
  From one of Britain’s finest historians of material culture, this book vividly captures the enduring magic and significance of our shores. Whether it’s smugglers’ underpants or sailor’s hoaxes, whale vomit or pickled puffin – it all washes up on the British coast… 
  At once social and coastal, the book drifts along Britain’s shorelines and across oceans, letting seashells and other objects conjure the character of different regions and habitats. With nature and ecosystems threaded through every tale, it’s the latest non-fiction for readers who want the best of history, beautifully washed clean by salt and time. 
  For fans of Jane Cooper (The Lost Flock), James Rebanks (The Shepherd's View), Clara Parkes (Vanishing Fleece), Robert Macfarlane (Desert Solitaire), and Robin Wall Kimmerer (The Serviceberry).

  Paranoia: A Journey Into Extreme...

  'A TRULY IMPORTANT BOOK’ JOHN HUMPHRYS 
  'FASCINATING… SHOCKING' SPECTATOR 
  What is paranoia? What makes us mistrustful? How can this be overcome? 
  Daniel Freeman, Professor of Psychology at Oxford, has spent thirty years at the vanguard of paranoia research and treatment. This remarkable and moving book tells the story of that journey. 
  For decades, conventional wisdom held that paranoia was only experienced by people with severe mental health problems and little could be done to rectify its disastrous effects. Paranoia gives us a front row seat as Freeman turns the traditional view on its head. 
  He develops life-changing treatments for clinical paranoia – often using state-of-the-art technology like virtual reality. He reveals that suspicion is rife in society, with paranoia widespread, conspiracy theories rampant and emotion all too often trumping evidence. He discovers the causes of mistrust, including the role of genes, trauma, lack of sleep, worry, low self-confidence, cannabis use and hearing voices, and delves into the murky world of Covid-19 conspiracy theories. Lighting up the narrative throughout are the rarely heard voices of people whose lives have been almost wrecked by paranoia – and then in many cases transformed by Freeman’s groundbreaking treatments. 
  This is also a practical book. Freeman shows how we can measure our own levels of mistrust. He explains how we can remedy things if those levels are higher than we’d like, because although mistrust can seem engrained, things can change for the better. Ultimately, it can be overcome. Compelling and compassionate, this is a gripping tale from the front line of suspicion – an impassioned plea for the urgent rebuilding of trust between us all. 
  Daniel Freeman's Paranoia is a compelling mix of autobiography, neuroscience, and social science. It offers a deep understanding of paranoia, its medical implications, and the anxieties and phobias it can cause, providing self-help strategies for patients. 
  For fans of Lucy Johnstone (Users and Abusers of Psychiatry), Esmé Weijun Wang (The Collected Schizophrenias), Irvin D. Yalom (Hour of the Heart), Dr Joseph Jebelli (The Brain at Rest), and Paul Gilbert (CFT Made Simple).

  In the Modern Tower of Babel -...

  Dr. Mark J. Poznansky

  In the original fable of the Tower of Babel, as punishment for attempting to build a tower into the heavens, the people were relegated to an inability to communicate, each speaking a different language. Hence the term "to Babel." The Modern Tower of Babel refers not to multiple languages but to the increasing spread of misinformation, disinformation, and fake news. We are increasingly disadvantaged in our ability to establish fact from fiction and truth from lies. This confusion is leading to the chaos we now see across many aspects of society: In medicine, should we vaccinate our children or not? In the health of our environment, are global warming and climate change a reality, or are they a hoax? And, of course, in politics, where anything seems permissible and truth is often discarded in favor of retaining power. But all is not lost. If we are smart enough to use modern technologies; such as AI; intelligently and with proper regulation, we can harness the wealth of information available to us and leverage modern tools to distinguish fact from fiction and rigorously evaluate evidence. But that will only happen if we use AI properly, and given our current course, that outcome is far from assured.
