  Read the only book containing an appendix of eye losses, makes reference to hand gel depicting a gay assassin, and to compare a group of all-women Japanese comic book artists to a German electronic band. 
  In early 2020, Ian Wolf - manga critic in print and online, autistic comedic data specialist, and some time question writer for Richard Osman's House of Games - decided that the best way to keep himself occupied while Britain was in Covid lockdown was to write a humorous book about his favorite manga artists - CLAMP... the women behind such works as Cardcaptor Sakura, xxxHOLiC, X and Magic Knight Rayearth. 
  If you want to find out why the cases of the CLAMP School Detectives sound like challenges from Taskmaster, why almost everything in Magic Knight Rayearth is named after a car, why the British Museum illustrated their manga exhibit using the soft-core lesbian manga Miyuki-chan in Wonderland, or why the Cardcaptor Sakura Kinomoto's best friend has more than a whiff of The Fast Show's 13th Duke of Wybourne about her, this is the book for you.

  A close look at failed US policies in the Middle East, offering a fresh perspective on how best to reorient goals in the region 
   
   
    
  In this book Alexandra Stark argues that the US approach to Yemen offers insights into the failures of American foreign policy throughout the Middle East. Stark makes the case that despite often being drawn into conflicts within Yemen, the United States has not achieved its policy goals because it has narrowly focused on counterterrorism and regional geopolitical competition rather than on the well-being of Yemenis themselves. She offers recommendations designed to reorient US policy in the Middle East in pursuit of US national security interests and to support the people of these countries in their efforts to make their own communities safe, secure, and prosperous.

  The Prince 
  By Niccolò Machiavelli 
  A timeless masterpiece on power, strategy, and statecraft, The Prince is one of the most influential political treatises ever written. First penned in 1513, Niccolò Machiavelli offers a bold and unapologetic guide on how rulers can acquire and maintain power, often advocating for pragmatism over morality. 
  With razor-sharp insights into human nature, deception, and governance, Machiavelli argues that a successful leader must be cunning, adaptable, and, when necessary, ruthless. From the necessity of fear over love to the art of war and manipulation, The Prince remains a vital read for politicians, strategists, and anyone seeking to understand the complex dynamics of power. 
  Whether admired as a manual for leadership or criticized as a blueprint for tyranny, The Prince continues to shape political thought centuries after its publication. This edition, translated by W.K. Marriott, preserves the clarity and brilliance of Machiavelli’s original work, making it accessible to modern readers."It is better to be feared than loved, if you cannot be both."

  Situated in the early decades of the magnificent Mughal Empire, this first ever biography of Princess Gulbadan offers an enthralling portrait of a charismatic adventurer and unique pictures of the multicultural society in which she lived. Following a migratory childhood that spanned Kabul and north India, Gulbadan spent her middle years in a walled harem established by her nephew Akbar to showcase his authority as the Great Emperor. Gulbadan longed for the exuberant itinerant lifestyle she'd known. With Akbar's blessing, she led an unprecedented sailing and overland voyage and guided harem women on an extended pilgrimage in Arabia. Amid increasing political tensions, the women's "un-Islamic" behavior forced their return, lengthened by a dramatic shipwreck in the Red Sea. 
   
   
   
  Gulbadan wrote a book upon her return, the only extant work of prose by a woman of the age. A portion of it is missing, either lost to history or redacted by officials who did not want the princess to have her say. 
   
   
   
  Vagabond Princess contemplates the story of the missing pages and breathes new life into a daring historical figure. It offers a portal to a richly complex world, rife with movement and migration, where women's conviviality, adventure, and autonomies shine through.
