Author Bio:
Simon Goddard is the author of eleven books about pop music including the six volumes of his ongoing Bowie Odyssey series. His previous titles have made the Best-of-Year book lists of the Sunday Times, Mojo and Q magazine.
By Simon Goddard
Book by book, year by year, the ultimate literary trip through Bowies greatest decade. With his first starring role in a feature film and his first number 1s on both sides of the Atlantic, 1975 ought to be David Bowies golden year. But away from the spotlight the suave soul boy of Young Americans is tumbling into a self-made hell of cocaine, witchcraft and the dark fantasies of his new fascist alter-ego, the Thin White Duke.
As David goes berserk in the Hollywood hills, back in the Britain he’s forsaken there’s a Nazi-crazed murderer stalking the streets where he was born, a masked rapist at large and a power-mad grocers’ daughter on the rise, while sappy nostalgia grinds pop to a standstill. But there are also restless scamps hanging around a certain Kings Road clothes shop, and Davids own drug-fuelled genius daring him to make the album of his life.
The Seventies are about to reignite with a bang. The sixth volume in Simon Goddards epic adventure through Bowies greatest decade, Number 75 is an intricately plotted tour de force of rock’n’roll, crime, punishment, politics, punk - and a cautionary tale of tragicomic addiction.

Create your ultimate playlist
By Carolyn McHugh
More than a collection, this book is a celebration of musical genius, cultural milestones, and the timeless artistry that has shaped the soundtrack of our lives.
From pop to rock, folk, funk and soul, ballads to bangers, these songs represent the best of music since 1950s early rock and roll.
Each entry tells the story behind the song, including the creative process, cultural impact, and legacy. You’ll learn about the heartbreak that inspired poignant ballads, the social movements behind anthems of change, and the moments that led to chart-topping hits.
We honor the artists who pushed boundaries, the producers who crafted masterpieces, the songwriters whose lyrics became iconic, and the performers whose voices made history. While providing a comprehensive assessment of the very best in musical achievement, the selection of tracks is inherently subjective.
Everyone has their own favorites and feelings about what makes a song truly great. This list is meant to spark conversation and debate, encouraging readers to reflect on their own musical journeys and the songs that have defined their lives.

The Fashion Icons
By Alison James
The Prada label was founded by Mario Prada in 1913 in Milan. Initially, Prada focused on luxury leather goods and accessories, operating from its small, yet elegant boutique in the prestigious Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. The brand quickly gained recognition for its exceptional craftsmanship and innovative designs, receiving the prestigious title of Official Supplier of the Italian Royal Household by 1919. In the 1970s, Miuccia Prada joined the family business and introduced the now-iconic black nylon backpack, which broke new ground in fashion by transforming the utilitarian material into high fashion. Prada has since become recognized for blending simplicity with a forwardthinking, intellectual design philosophy, and incorporating experimental textures, patterns, and silhouettes without losing the brands signature refinement.

The Decline of Our Culture
By Theodore Dalrymple
This book delves into society’s subtle-and some not so subtletransgressions that contribute to the decline of our culture.
Theodore Dalrymple, drawing on his extensive experience as an inner-city GP and prison psychiatrist, examines the underlying factors that drive societal behaviours and self-deception.
The book covers a range of thought-provoking topics, including what drives doctors to work for dictators, the benefits of idleness, understanding the mindset of Hitler, why doctors collect body parts, the true meaning of illness, and how war can paradoxically advance medicine.
This wide-ranging exploration is a compelling read for the intelligent reader and the Theodore Dalrymple fan. Dalrymple’s insights offer a unique perspective on the complexities of human behaviour and cultural decline.
Whether you are intrigued by the benefits of idleness, fascinated by the darker side of human nature, or interested in historical and psychological analyses, it promises to be an enlightening and engaging read ranging across many genres like Malcolm Gladwell.

This is the shocking true-life story of how PFAS a set of toxic chemicals most people have never heard of poisoned the entire country.
Based on original, shoe-leather reporting in four highly contaminated towns and damning documents from the polluters' own files, this traces an ugly history of corporate greed and devastation of human lives. We learn that PFAS, the 'forever chemicals' found in everyday products, from cooking pans to mascara, are coursing through the veins of 97% of Americans. We witness the pain of families who have lost sisters and daughters, cousins and neighbors, after PFAS leached into their drinking water. We discover evidence that the makers of forever chemicals may have known for decades about the deadly risks of their products because their own scientists have been documenting these dangers since the 1960s. It is impossible to read this searing expose without being infuriated by the recklessness of corporate America. But readers will also be awed by the spirit of ordinary people who, while fighting for their own lives, took it upon themselves to fix a broken regulatory system. Heart-wrenching and maddening, stirring and uplifting, this offers a unique window into the worst and best of human nature. It is essential reading for anyone concerned about the unfettered power of industry and the invisible threat it poses to the health of the nation and to each of us.

An inside story of asbestos, death, and the fight for justice by thousands of South Africans against a multinational mining corporation intent on denying responsibility. For nearly 90 years, a British company called Cape used local labor to mine and mill asbestos in South Africa. Poor and mostly Black men, women, and children-some as young as seven-worked every day in clouds of asbestos dust that they carried home to their families, caked onto their skin, hair, and clothes. The appalling levels of disease and death in these communities caused by asbestos exposure were heartbreaking. In 1995, Richard Meeran, a young British lawyer with Indian and African roots, driven by his own experiences of racism in England, embarked on a David and Goliath battle against the company and its toptier legal team to hold them accountable. This tells the harrowing story of this international legal drama. Facing deeppocketed opponents and a century of established legal precedent, Meeran's case before the UK courts seemed hopeless. But after nine years of painstaking investigation, agonizing setbacks, vaudevillian escapades, and unlikely champions, Meeran prevailed. Drawing on dozens of interviews with key players and countless hours poring over thousands of documents across three continents, Kinley reveals an epic tale of triumph and justice against all odds. He also highlights the profound political implications that victims faced in the newly post-Apartheid South Africa, where the case was widely seen as a test of racial as well as economic redemption.

When training for fitness or performance, you have an array of equipment to choose from.

The Neuroscience Behind Science Fiction
By Austin Lim
Curiosity drives humanity to wade through the unknown, often leading to unforeseeable consequences. Scientists throughout centuries have mined these depths looking for - and finding - answers to life's most mysterious questions, but perhaps the most memorable accounts of hidden dimensions have been left to us by science fiction writers like Philip K. Dick and Ursula K. Le Guin. When science discovers, science fiction writers ask "what's next?" This book reveals the real science and psychology behind science fiction's most iconic characters, from Mary Shelley's Dr. Frankenstein to the doctors of H.P. Lovecraft and even today's horror blockbusters like Stranger Things and The Last of Us. In this fascinating exploration of fear and madness, neuroscientist Dr. Austin Lim recounts psychology's most bizarre and haunting reallife cases alongside famous speculative fiction that stretched that science to the edge.

By Arthur Upfield
Three murders, three perfect murders... near the rabbit-proof fence in desolate Western Australia. Perfect - except the process was exactly as described in Arthur Upfield’s crime novel The Sands of Windee (1931). It all began in 1929, when Upfield was working on the fence and plotting a new novel featuring the Aboriginal detective, Napoleon Bonaparte. His friend George Ritchie had devised a brilliant method of disposing a body in the outback, so brilliant that Upfield offered Ritchie a pound if he could come up with a flaw in the process. On October 5 1929, Upfield, Ritchie and Snowy Rowles, the northern boundary rider for the fence, all met at the Camel Station and discussed the murder method in the forthcoming book...This is Upfield’s own account of the Snowy Rowles murder case, augmented by police photographs and Upfield’s evidence, colourised for the first time.
The Romantic Story of the New Guinea Goldfields
By Ion Idriess
His latest book is really the romance of the Edie Creek and Bulolo diggings, situated inland from Salamau; and with the discovery of the field are associated the names of diggers as "Shark Eye Bill" (William Park), Matt Crowe, Jim Preston, Arthur Dowling, Frank and Jim Pryke... men who in pre-war years, crept across the frontier, defying the Germans and dodging the headhunters... These men endured terrible hard-ships, and frequently faced grim tragedy. Mr Idriess writes of it all, and writes of it as if he had been with them.. What a romance! What a story! It is packed with adventure, studded with splendid penpictures of pioneer prospectors, airmen, and patrol officers, and told with a fascinating simplicity that is borne from something very close to genius. Brisbane Courier, 1933.

Zombies aren’t just the stuff of nightmares. Explore the fascinating world of real-life insect zombification. Zombies are all around us— insect zombies, that is. In this book, Mindy Weisberger explores the eerie yet fascinating phenomenon of real-life zombification in the insect class and among other invertebrates. Zombifying parasites reproduce by rewriting their victims neurochemistry, transforming them into the "walking dead": armies of cicadas, spiders, and other hosts that helplessly follow a zombifiers commands, living only to serve the parasites needs until deaths sweet release (and often beyond). Through vivid descriptions and captivating storytelling, Weisberger explains the sinister mechanics of natures most cunning survival strategies, including the biological marvels and evolutionary intricacies behind zombie ants, mind-controlled beetles, and the fungi and viruses that reprogram their hosts behavior.

From Rebellion to Independence, 1775-1776
By Tom McMillan
There is indisputable evidence that the Continental Congress voted to separate from England on July 2, 1776. But the more cogent point is that many modern -day Americans seem unaware of the raucous political discourse in the weeks and months leading up to that decision. Independence was not pre-ordained, and almost didn't happen as early as it did. Myths and misconceptions abound, July 2, 1776 will open many eyes to the history of the American Revolution.
From D-Day to the Fall of Berlin
By Mike Lepine
When VE Day dawns on 8th May 2025 it will be 80 years since the guns fell silent at the end of the war in Europe. Years of carnage and destruction had come to an end and millions of people took to the streets to celebrate peace, mourn their loved - ones and to hope for the future but not forgetting those still in conflict. On 7th May 1945 the formal act of military surrender was signed by Germany, ending the war in Europe. The next day celebrations broke out all over the world to mark Victory in Europe or VE Day. In Britain, Churchill marked the occasion by declaring 8th May a public holiday. The 80th anniversary will provide our nation, and our friends around the world, with an opportunity to reflect on the enormous sacrifice, courage and determination of people from all walks of life who saw us through this dark and terrifying period.

By Anthony Richards
1945: one of the most important years in modern history. Encompassing not only the celebration of peace and an end to the Second World War, but also the devastating first use of nuclear weapons and the long shadow cast by both this and the legacy of the worldwide conflagration. In this landmark publication, Anthony Richards tells the story of this momentous year through the unique collections of the Imperial War Museum, using personal testimony and rarely seen imagery to consider the wide-ranging experiences of that twelve-month period. From continued fighting through North-West Europe, South-East Asia and the Pacific to the liberation of the concentration camps, while encompassing the post-war desire for reconstruction, repatriation and justice, this book guides readers through this year of unprecedented change, which laid the foundation for the modern world.
By David Laurent Giles
After the failure of Britain's latest air-defence destroyers in the 1982 Falklands War, a public controversy began over an alternative: The S90 'Short Fat' frigate designed and proposed by Peter Thornycroft and David Giles. This is the almost incredible but well-documented story of the author's 40-year-long hard-fought battle with naval authorities and governments on both sides of the Atlantic, to prove the virtues of his designs which they had rejected on the basis of theory rather than fact, and then eventually to win substantial compensation after they covertly infringed his patents in two new classes of warship. With a Foreword by the late Admiral Lord HillNorton, Former Chief of the Defence Staff; Technical Appendices; Glossary and Dramatis Personae.

Revel in the joy of nature and the One who made it all. This rhythmic meditation on the nature of God in the world. Through the eyes of a child, this picture book invites readers to imagine God creating each element of nature specifically for the benefit of the creatures and plants God lovingly made. If God were a mighty whale, she'd make vast, mysterious oceans, wouldn't she? If God were a wiggly worm, he'd make fallen leaves and rotting trees and rich earth, wouldn't he? Rushing streams, mountains full of caves, sun to warm flowers, trees blazing red and orange, and seas full of friends in every shape and size God created them all! God is in all of creation, and God is in you and me. Creator God made a perfectly balanced and interconnected world to please not just us humans but every plant and animal, every planet and star in all creation.
