  Furs are the creative subculture of people who identify with animals. You can find them at furry conventions, furfests, around the world—tens of thousands of people donning their most elaborate fursuit. In costume, at conventions, with friends or alone, furries unleash the animal within, letting their inner beasts roar and their inner cats purr, aware of the power—and joy—to be found in bringing forward one's animal side and encouraging others to do the same. 
   
   
   
  In Furry Planet, long-time furry Joe Strike dives deep into this compelling subculture to share its appeal. Strike and a wealth of interviewees trace the history of the subculture and its various iterations today, in the process covering conventions, media, art, storytelling, community resources, costume creation, and advice for newcomers, and addressing stigmas and misconceptions head on.

  Described by the right-wing media as "the most dangerous man in Britain" because of his uncompromising socialist views, Steve Hedley, born in Derry (Ireland), tells the story of a massacre in his hometown and other significant events that shaped his ideology.
  Steve shares his memories of the hunger strikes, the poll tax, his participation in militant antifascism and trade unionism which led him to be elected to second in command of the RMT union. He explores the limitations of trade unionism and advocates a return to class politics tied to environmental and global socialist goals. This is an exciting thought-provoking book which sparks a debate about the state of the left in Britain and the necessity of employing the power of the working class to combat catastrophic climate change and war.

  When we get dressed, we don't have to do it so much to wear something, but we have to choose the right fabrics, clothes for the right occasion and the exact match. This is why we present three fabrics that are always at the forefront in the world of fashion and everyday wear: silk, linen, cotton. These three fabrics are used purely in the summer and mid-season, giving a sense of freshness and lightness to those who wear them, therefore wearable all day without problems. In many cases they also dress for the evening, as far as linen and cotton are concerned, the situation is different for silk. You have always seen women and men use silk for style and sophistication in various types of outfits. Silk has an incredible history for how it was born, linen, a purely vegetable fabric, is the oldest of the three, cotton, with a very sad history behind it, for its harvesting in the plantations where it was originally grown. In short, a beautiful adventure within these three stories that will enrich you in the knowledge of these three fabrics.
