A New Health and Care System
This book asks one of the key questions for future UK society: how do we make our health care and public services more successful and sustainable? In Escaping the Invisible Asylum, Alex Fox outlines a new model for public services that offer long-term support to adults, based on the overarching goal of achieving and maintaining wellbeing, rather than only reacting to crises or attempting to "fix" people. The author draws on the experience and unique perspective gained through his leadership of the Shared Lives movement.
Modifying Our Genes
If our bodies could do more things, would our lives be better? Genome editing is a rapidly developing technology that can modify human genes. It can cure heritable diseases, but we could even make certain genetic “improvements” to healthy people. Should we change human embryos genetically to achieve such goals? Bringing together a leading molecular biologist and a Christian ethicist this book responds to the need for solid information and helpful orientation for a pressing moral issue. They explain relevant technical issues without the jargon, clarify the most important philosophical and religious arguments and bring empirical insights to the question of what helps us lead meaningful lives.

Acting Lessons
Parting may be such sweet sorrow, but second chances are so much sweeter. An intense summer fling with handsome, protective actor James Martin opened up self-effacing Frederica Alves’ horizons. Then their potential for love met a swift end when he followed his dreams and left New York for Hollywood. Two years later, James is back, his talent now matched by his rising fame, and that spark is still there. But the shy Freddie he knew has become a confident woman and their passionate reconnection speedily turns into equally passionate conflict. That Freddie was still single was both unexpected and welcome after two years apart. But as James learns how much she’s grown into herself, he realizes he’d walked away from the best thing that ever happened to him. Trouble is, one thing has stayed the same: Freddie hates cameras and attention and they’re about to face a lot of both. Can a publicity-shy woman and a celebrity learn how to reach for the stars together, or will everything come crashing to earth?
Vogue on: Alexander McQueen
Alexander (Lee) McQueen was - for the 15 years that he stood at its helm - British fashion's most significant figure. His extraordinary career, which took him from humble beginnings as an apprentice on Savile Row to the creative directorship of his own global brand, is a story of hard work, ambition and visionary brilliance.
