Crash Bang Wallop - Iain Martin - Bog - Hodder & Stoughton - Plusbog.dk

Crash Bang Wallop - Iain Martin - Bog - Hodder & Stoughton - Plusbog.dk

Published to mark the 30th anniversary of the financial revolution known as ''Big Bang'', Crash Bang Wallop will tell the gripping story of how the changes introduced in the 1980s in the City of London transformed our world.Attitudes to money and the way we measure value and status were completely reshaped by Big Bang, and it had an extraordinary impact on politics, on style, on technology, on the class system, on questions of public ownership, and on the geography of London. Perhaps more than anything, Big Bang revolutionised the international markets, as the capital became a testing ground for financial globalisation, with huge repercussions for the global economy. The definitive insider''s account of this critically important moment in modern history, Crash Bang Wallop will also explore what''s next for global finance as it gets ready to undergo yet another revolution. ''Iain Martin tells it brilliantly, mixing fury-inducing narrative with an acute eye for the broader conclusion.'' Observer

IF THE GOVERNMENT IS AGAINST YOU, WHO CAN YOU TRUST?'Gripping' CHARLES CUMMING 'Tight, pacy and strong on atmosphere' MICHAEL PALIN 'Completely unputdownable' SEB EMINA'Hugely accomplished' IRISH INDEPENDENTVeteran BBC reporter William Carver is in Cairo, bang in the middle of the Arab Spring. 'The only story in the world' according to his editor. But it isn't. There's another story, more significant and potentially more dangerous, and if no one else is willing to tell it, then Carver will - whatever the consequences. A Single Source tells two stories, which over a few tumultuous months come together to prove inextricably linked. There are the dramatic, world-changing events as protests spread across North Africa and the Middle East, led by a new generation of tech-savvy youngsters challenging the corrupt old order. And then there are two Eritrean brothers, desperate enough to risk everything to make their way across the continent to a better life in Europe. The world is watching, but its attention span is increasingly short. Carver knows the story is a complex one and, in the age of Facebook, Twitter and rolling news, difficult stories are getting harder to tell. If everyone is a reporter, then who do you believe? 'Draws you in from the first line and keeps you guessing until, literally, the very last' ALLAN LITTLE 'Thrilling' DAME ANN LESLIE 'The real deal' KIRSTY WARK 'Compulsive and terrifying in equal measure' KATE HAMER 'Gut-wrenching' EDWARD STOURTON'A fast-moving tale of shifting loyalties and betrayal' CRIME REVIEW'Written with skill and humanity' SHOTS MAG

Why Don't Things Fall Up? - Alom Shaha - Bog - Hodder & Stoughton - Plusbog.dk

Why Don't Things Fall Up? - Alom Shaha - Bog - Hodder & Stoughton - Plusbog.dk

''A great idea, beautifully executed.'' Popular Science ''A book of quiet wonder.'' Ian Dunt ''I have learnt (and remembered) so much, and so easily. It''s the mango ice cream of science books.'' Hilary McKay ''Everything Alom writes is a joy to ponder, his love of science is utterly contagious, the perfect guide through things that might perplex.'' Robin Ince ''A joyful exploration of fundamental questions about our world; Shaha proves that science is for everyone!'' Roma Agrawal ''Friendly, informative and such fun to read.'' Christopher Edge ''Alom Shaha is the science teacher many people will wish they had but didn''t.'' Philip Ball ''Here is the teacher you''ll wish you had at school.'' Jim S. Al-Khalili CBE ''A gentle and reassuring journey through school science, perfect for polishing up both long-forgotten knowledge and confidence, and helping everyone to make science a part of their world. Helen Czerski Has a child - or anyone else - ever asked you why the sky is blue? Could you explain why ice cream melts? Have you forgotten why scientists think the universe started with a Big Bang, and do you understand the difference between respiration and breathing? Why Don''t Things Fall Up? will gently remind you of everything you may have learnt once upon a time, but have somehow forgotten along the way. If you''ve ever changed the subject when a child has asked for homework help, or if you have the curiosity of a seven year old yourself, or if you know everything but have forgotten the basics or don''t want to know anything except the basics - then this is the book for you. Using questions asked by children as a starting point, Alom Shaha (who has spent over two decades trying to help people of all ages understand this stuff) takes us on a tour of the "big ideas" of science from his unique perspective. His experience as a dad, a teacher and science communicator means he knows exactly what people don''t know -and especially the misconceptions and other intellectual hurdles which prevent us from grasping key ideas. Combining his proven skill for explaining science with storytelling and flashbacks to school experiments, Why Don''t Things Fall Up? reminds us that science is not just for scientists - it''s a human endeavour that enriches all our lives.

The Reckoning - John Grisham - Bog - Hodder & Stoughton - Plusbog.dk

''I couldn''t help thinking of Harper Lee''s great American novel To Kill a Mockingbird while reading The Reckoning . . . [Grisham] knows how to spin a yarn'' - Chicago Sun-Times ''May be his greatest work yet'' - David Grann, New York Times bestselling author of Killers of the Flower Moon? Pete Banning was Clanton''s favourite son, a returning war hero, the patriarch of a prominent family; a farmer, father, and a faithful member of the Methodist Church. Then one cool October morning in 1946, he rose early, drove into town, walked into the Church, and calmly shot and killed the Reverend Dexter Bell.As if the murder wasn''t shocking enough, it was even more baffling that Pete''s only statement about it - to the sheriff, to his defense attorney, to the judge, to his family and friends, and to the people of Clanton - was ''I have nothing to say''.What turned Pete from a pillar of the community into cold-hearted killer? And why won''t he confide in anyone? All his closest family knows is that it must have been something devastating - and that the fallout will haunt them, and the town, for decades to come . . . Further praise for The Reckoning ''Beautifully constructed . . . weaves a truly magical spell'' - Daily Mail ''In this saga of love and war, John Grisham has given us a sprawling and engrossing story about a southern family, a global conflict, and the kinds of secrets that can shape all of us. From the courtrooms and jails of rural Mississippi to the war-torn Pacific, Grisham spins a tale that is at once entertaining and illuminating'' - Jon Meacham, New York Times bestselling author of The Soul of America ''John Grisham is the master of legal fiction, and his latest starts with a literal bang - and then travels backward through the horrors of war to explore what makes a hero, what makes a villain, and how thin the line between the two might be'' - Jodi Picoult, internationally bestselling author of A Spark of Light and Small Great Things ''When a master of storytelling and suspense takes on one of the most wrenching stories in history, the result is a book that will break your heart, set your blood pumping and your mind racing, and leave you gasping for breath by the final page.
