Synopsis

Ancient Pyramid Texts explores the captivating inscriptions within Egyptian pyramids, revealing profound insights into ancient Egyptian religion, history, and funerary beliefs. These texts, far from being mere decorations, served as a detailed guide for the pharaoh's perilous journey through the afterlife.

 
The book highlights how the Egyptians believed in a complex pantheon of gods, such as Ra, Osiris, and Isis, and that the pharaoh was a divine intermediary, ensuring cosmic order and his own resurrection.

 
The book uniquely combines linguistic analysis, religious interpretation, and archaeological context to dissect these complex texts. Beginning with the discovery and initial interpretations, the book progresses thematically, grouping texts by creation myths, rituals for resurrection, and descriptions of the afterlife. It further explains the evolution of these texts into later works like the Book of the Dead, revealing the changing facets of Egyptian religious thought over time.

 
Through hieroglyphic inscriptions and archaeological findings, readers gain direct access to understanding the world of ancient Egypt.

    ‘A brilliant and challenging book’ GORDON BROWN 
    From the founder of Britain’s leading antifascist organisation, HOPE not hate, this is an urgent call to resist the forces of extremism on the march in Western societies – and how to go about it. 
    If you’re shocked and disconcerted by the rise of intolerance and hate, you’re not alone. 
    Drawing from 35 years of campaigning and journalism, Nick Lowles shows how anti-immigration, antisemitic and Islamophobic attacks have proliferated in the modern world, and how Britain – with the likes of Tommy Robinson and the growth of Reform UK – has been far from immune from far-right politics. 
    From HOPE not hate’s pioneering campaigns against the BNP in east London to the impact of the ‘manosphere’ and the issues in Netflix's Adolescence; from explorations of the pernicious influence of ‘race science’ and conspiracy theory to the interplay of deprivation and intolerance in Britain’s deindustrialised towns, Lowles entwines his inspirational story with hard-won lessons from decades of activism. 
    His conclusions – which do not shy away from awkward truths for campaigners – suggest practical ways for the far right to be defeated. And he shares powerful examples – from a participant-led youth club in Hull to Syrian refugees connecting with local people over falafel in Bradford – of finding the joy in showing that, hard as it can seem, HOPE can triumph over hate. 
    In his latest non-fiction work, Lowles explores the social and political ideologies that underpin totalitarianism and organised terrorism. It's a true biography of activists fighting against ethnic intolerance and fascism, making it a must-read for those interested in these topics.

    The author of the Washington Post’s hugely influential ""Plum Line"" sounds the alarm on the subversion of our democracy by self-interested politicians, greedy plutocrats, foreign government hacking, racial prejudice, media propaganda and our own lack of vigilance, and what must be done to save it before it’s too late. 
    The sophistication and ambition of those now eroding American democracy by gaming the rules in their favor is unprecedented, including computer-generated gerrymandering, unreasonable voter ID laws, limitations on voting hours, a lack of convenient polling places, and efforts to disenfranchise likely Democratic voters. This has been accompanied by foreign government intervention and an unprecedented level of political disinformation that threatens to undermine the very possibility of shared agreement on facts and poses profound new challenges to the media’s ability to inform the citizenry. 
    Yet it would be wrong to think that the problem is that Republicans alone have learned how to work the system—our electoral process is undermining itself from within: its dysfunctional rules incentivize vicious partisan efforts to tilt the playing field, combining in a toxic escalation of polarization and a frightening corrosion of basic norms that threaten to totally eradicate fair play in politics. 
    In An Uncivil War, Washington Post journalist Greg Sargent vividly lifts the curtain on the nightmare dynamic that is transforming American politics into little more than a naked power struggle. Yet An Uncivil War is not only a thorough dissection of an ultimately immoral system, but a handbook for turning that around by restoring authentic democracy. Given the incredibly high stakes in 2018 and 2020, Sargent’s book could not be more essential.

    Abraham Lincoln's Lyceum Address, delivered in 1838, reflects on the fragility of American democracy and the potential dangers of lawlessness and mob rule. Lincoln begins by honoring the Founding Fathers and their sacrifices, emphasizing the importance of preserving their legacy. He warns against the threat posed by individuals who seek to undermine the rule of law and exploit public discontent for personal gain. Lincoln argues that the true danger to the nation comes not from external enemies but from internal strife and moral decay. 
    Central to Lincoln's message is the idea that respect for laws and institutions is essential for maintaining a stable and just society. He calls for citizens to uphold the principles of justice and equality, stressing the need for education and moral guidance to foster responsible citizenship. Lincoln uses historical examples, including the rise and fall of ancient republics, to illustrate the consequences of unchecked lawlessness and civic indifference. 
    Throughout the address, Lincoln's eloquence and deep concern for the future of democracy in America are evident. He urges his audience to cherish and protect the nation's democratic ideals, emphasizing that the strength of the United States lies in the unity and moral character of its people. Lincoln's Lyceum Address remains a timeless reminder of the enduring values that underpin a free and democratic society.
