  James Maley, George Watters, Donald Renton and Archibald Williams were members of Machine Gun Company No. 2 of the XV International Brigade. This is the first book to focus on a small group of men from different starting-points, ended up in the same battleground at Jarama, and then in the same prisons after capture by Franco's forces.
  Their remarkable story is told both in their own words and in the recollections of their sons and daughters, through a prison notebook, newspaper reports, stills cut from newsreels, interviews, anecdotes and memories, with a foreword by Daniel Gray.
  Our Fathers Fought Franco is a collective biography that promises to add significantly to the understanding of the motives of those who 'went because their open eyes could see no other way'.

  Living Disability - Building...

  How can we build more accessible cities? Living Disability brings together vibrant perspectives on disability justice and urban systems.
  		 
  A musician and snow removal expert, a queer curator, a public pool aficionado, and a journalist turned city councillor — these are just some of the disabled writers exploring disability justice, analyzing urban systems, and proposing more equitable approaches to city building in this anthology. Essays and interviews push the conversation about accessibility beyond policy papers and compliance checklists to show how disabled people are already creating more inclusive spaces in cities of all sizes.
  		 
  Living Disability is universal in scope but intimate and local in focus, grounded in personal struggles and celebrations. Decisions about public transit, affordable housing, and park design all disproportionately impact disabled communities; by sharing stories and strategies, contributors consider the ways disabled thinkers and doers are embracing overlooked aspects of urban design and tackling the toughest problems facing cities. Each chapter provides context to welcome both disabled and non-disabled readers into conversations about the future of inclusion so that all readers can develop their own understanding of what accessible cities look and feel like. This book appeals to city builders of all stripes committed to learning from and working with underrepresented communities. It equips architects, designers, community leaders, innovators, and citizens with the key concepts they need to collaborate with rather than care for disabled neighbors.
  		 
  “Living Disability is at once hopeful and infuriating, solemn and joyous. The stories shared within these pages point to both the past and future simultaneously — illuminating the struggles and joys and history of disabled life, while putting access barriers on blast in a way that is more necessary than ever. The deep, rich work of this collection lies in its embrace of complexity, community, grief, and also its belief in the capacity of our world (read: us) to change. May these stories touch your heart, kindle the flame of your anger, and move you forward into fighting for the better world we all deserve.” — Amanda Leduc, author of Disfigured: On Fairy Tales, Disability, and Making Space

  Thus Spoke My Therapist -...

  hus Spoke My Therapist: Nietzsche Without the Mental Breakdown is your one-way ticket to understanding one of history’s most misunderstood philosophers—without needing a doctorate or a prescription for existential dread. 
  This isn’t your professor’s Nietzsche. It’s Nietzsche with a cocktail of sarcasm, clarity, and just enough emotional damage to be relatable. Philosophy grad student and sarcasm connoisseur Sophia Blackwell slices through the fog of German metaphysics to deliver a book that actually explains what the mustachioed madman was on about—and makes you laugh so hard you forget you're spiraling. 
  Inside, you'll find: 
  Why "God is dead" isn’t just something said by goth teenagers. 
  How Christianity pulled off history’s greatest guilt trip. 
  What the "will to power" has to do with office politics and Instagram likes. 
  How eternal recurrence is basically Groundhog Day with higher stakes. 
  Why the Übermensch is less Hitler, more “that weirdly self-assured friend who makes their own almond milk.” 
  Perfect for people who want to understand philosophy without having to fake a seizure halfway through Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Whether you're a moody teenager, recovering philosophy major, or just someone who wants to win arguments online, this book will arm you with Nietzschean insights and the comedic timing to survive modern life’s absurdity. 
  Warning: Reading this may result in increased self-awareness, spontaneous existential crises, and the irresistible urge to quote Nietzsche at brunch

  The Dead Sea - A 10000 Year History

  A human history of one of the planet's most iconic lakes, and the civilizations that surrounded its shores 
   
   
    
  The Dead Sea is a place of many contradictions. Hot springs around the lake are famed for their healing properties, though its own waters are deadly to most lifeforms—even so, civilizations have built ancient cities and hilltop fortresses around its shores for centuries. The protagonists in its story are not only Jews and Arabs, but also Greeks, Nabataeans, Romans, Crusaders and Mamluks. Today it has become a tourist hotspot, but its drying basin is increasingly under threat. 
   
   
    
  In this panoramic account, Nir Arielli explores the history of the Dead Sea from the first Neolithic settlements to the present day. Moving through the ages, Arielli reveals the religious, economic, military, and scientific importance of the lake, which has been both a source of great wealth and a site of war. The Dead Sea weaves together a tapestry of the lake's human stories—and amidst environmental degradation and renewed conflict, makes a powerful case for why it should be saved.
