Nefarious: A life in crime – my...

Ronnie Field, Martin Knight

A Daily Mail Book of the Week
Prolific armed robber. Close ally of Joey Pyle. Friend and fellow inmate of the Kray twins. Last man to stand trial with a Kray brother. First prisoner in the notorious Belmarsh Unit … Welcome to Ronnie Field's world.
From his abusive childhood, his inevitable journey into crime and his role in the dangerous underworld of south London’s gangland through to his eventful spells in many of Britain’s most secure jails, Ronnie Field is ready to recount his incredible story for the very first time. It’s a new take on the criminal fraternity of the 1970s and 80s from one of the last men standing.
A raw, honest and sometimes humorous portrayal of a life in the fast lane of organised crime, Nefarious is a reflection on a bygone era from which there are few regrets. Though some things are best laid to rest…
There was a code. It's not there now. The public weren't in general danger from us. Most of our lot never burgled anybody's gaff. None of our lot every mugged people. We didn't hit women. Most of us didn't take drugs. We dressed well. Wouldn't be seen dead in tracksuit or shell suit. We were polite around women. Although our business was misbehavior, we knew how to behave.
In Nefarious, Ronnie Field's autobiography, he delves into the historical and organised crimes of the 70s and 80s, painting a vivid picture of the non-fictional underworld. His memoirs are filled with tales of robberies, heists, and outlaws, all wrapped in a narrative that is as engaging as it is enlightening.

Sophist - A Deep Inquiry into...

Plato, Tim Zengerink

What if deception had a logic of its own? 
In Sophist, Plato dares to tackle the concept of falsehood—not as error, but as something that seems to exist within language and thought. Through a dense but gripping dialogue between the Eleatic Stranger and Theaetetus, the discussion exposes the tricks of sophistry, the instability of language, and the paradox of how “what is not” can still be spoken of and understood. 
This modernized audiobook delivers one of Plato’s most intellectually daring texts with clarity and precision. Perfect for thinkers, scholars, and seekers of truth. 
What you’ll discover inside: 
•	A bold philosophical exploration of non-being, falsehood, and the metaphysics of language 
•	A deep critique of sophistry, appearance, and rhetorical manipulation 
•	Plato’s method of division—used to isolate philosophical concepts with surgical accuracy 
•	A readable, listener-friendly adaptation of one of Plato’s most abstract and influential works 
If you want to unravel the logic behind illusion and sharpen your understanding of truth, Sophist is essential listening.
