Non- Fiction

In 2004, an enigmatic charter captain named Al Anderson caught and marked one Atlantic bluefin tuna off New England’s coast with a plastic fish tag. Fourteen years later that fish – dubbed Amelia for her ocean-spanning journeys – died in a Mediterranean fish trap, sparking Karen Pinchin’s riveting investigation into the marvels, struggles, and prehistoric legacy of this remarkable species.

A new, fully updated narrative edition of David Attenborough’s seminal biography of our world, The Living Planet.

Nowhere on our planet is devoid of life. Plants and animals thrive or survive within every extreme of climate and habitat that it offers. Single species, and often whole communities adapt to make the most of ice cap and tundra, forest and plain, desert, ocean and volcano. These adaptations can be truly extraordinary: fish that walk or lay eggs on leaves in mid-air; snakes that fly; flightless birds that graze like deer; and bears that grow hair on the soles of their feet.

The introduction positions this edition as both a historical cornerstone and a state‑of‑the‑art update in numerical ODE solving. Butcher—one of the world’s leading experts and the mathematician who modernized Runge–Kutta theory—frames the book as a bridge between classical numerical analysis and the latest algorithmic advances.

This book narrates a year–long quest to see Britain’s rarest and most remarkable moths.

In the introduction, Bob Iger sets the tone for a book about leadership under pressure, bold decision‑making, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. He reflects on his unexpected rise from a studio assistant at ABC to CEO of The Walt Disney Company, emphasizing that his journey was shaped not by luck but by curiosity, optimism, fairness, and courage.

The opening pages highlight the moment that frames the entire book: Iger’s first day as CEO in 2005, when he realized Disney needed to rediscover its creative soul. The introduction explains how this insight led to transformative acquisitions—Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm, and 21st Century Fox—and a renewed focus on storytelling, innovation, and global expansion.

Iger positions the book not as a victory lap but as a leadership manual, sharing the principles that guided him through crises, negotiations, and cultural shifts. The introduction underscores his belief that great leaders must cultivate calm, clarity, and decency, especially in moments of uncertainty.
