The F Word: How we learned to swear by feminism argues that the pervasive idea that women will never be able to effectively combine work or interests outside the home with marriage, a social life and parenting is a furphy. In their lively and topical new book, Caro and Fox combine both personal experience and the stories of a range of women with the big picture, and provide practical suggestions for forgiving ourselves, having fun and not giving up while holding it all together.

Those who read the book were thrilled by this incredible Gothic adventure. Few, however, realised that Shelleys story had a basis in fact. What she imagined as her modern Prometheus was the serious pursuit of some the greatest minds of the early 19th century. It was a time when scientists genuinely believed, as Frankenstein did, that they could know what it feels like to be God. Raising the Dead looks at the sensational and compelling period of scientific research which may appear to us now to be a scientific curiosity but actually made a significant difference to the lives we live today.

The single most distinctive characteristic of the albatrosses is that they ride storms. Aside from a few close relatives among the petrels and shearwaters, they are the only animals (of any kind) that do this. They dont evade storms, or flee them, they climb aboard and ride them effectively throughout their lives. This work outlines the life histories of these spectacular birds, and explores some of the main strategies and tactics that have evolved to enable them to achieve mastery of one of the most hostile regions on the planet.

As missionary control diminished, Aboriginal people responded more overtly and autonomously: some regarding Christianity as irrelevant, others adopting it in culturally satisfying ways.

In this groundbreaking new book, Alastair McIntosh summarises the science of what is happening to the planet both globally and using Scotland as a local case study. He moves on, controversially, to suggest that politics alone is not enough to tackle the scale and depth of the problem. At root is our addictive consumer mentality. Wants have replaced needs and consumption drives our very identity. In a fascinating journey through early texts that speak to climate change including the ancient Sumerian Epic of Gilgamesh, Platos myth of Atlantis, and Shakespeares Macbeth McIntosh reveals the psychohistory of modern consumerism.

Equally crude and charming, locker-room macho and sensitive, these poems are always singularly marked by formal ingenuity and stylistic lan. A poetry that gleefully articulates the possibilities of a 21st century balls-deep masculinity, Porcos new collection begins with its most important work, 'Augustine in Carthage,' a trans-historical re-imagining of Book III of St. Augustines Confessions, which includes (among other things) philosophising strippers, Tampico bombers, rabbit holes, coprology, and comic-book heroism.

Many alliances with third world dictators, ostensibly of mutual benefit, reduce incentives to govern for prosperity and produce instead political and social instability and economic failure. Yet again, in the war on terror and in the name of preserving global stability, America is backing authoritarian regimes that practice repression and plunder. It is as if the cold war never ended.

Representative of a new generation of American writer-directors of the 1970s, Schraders films highlight the tension between old and new ways of telling a story and between the maintenance of commercial formulas and openness to individual expression. George Kouvaros draws on a personal interview conducted with Schrader and the directors prior commentary to trace common motivations and impulses behind such well-known films as Light Sleeper, American Gigolo, Affliction, Auto Focus, Taxi Driver, and Patty Hearst.
