The Art of Ectoplasm
The legacy of the Hamiltons’ psychic archive In the wake of the First World War and the 1918–19 pandemic, the world was left grappling with a profound sense of loss.

Daddy Bent-Legs
Born on March 25, 1968, Neil Matheson entered the world with a physical disability called Cerebral Palsy. Wanting to give readers a glimpse into what it is like to grow up on a pair of crutches, Daddy Bent-Legs is essentially the author's life story. Told through a series of eclectic anecdotes, the book is very much an “Everything- You-Ever-Wanted-To-Know-About-Physical-Disabilities-But-Were-Afraid-To-Ask" affair. Daddy Bent-Legs is a light-hearted, humorous and inspirational testimony about overcoming disability. From a young boy’s quest to be normal (and to be seen the same as able-bodied kids) to one man’s journey toward fatherhood – this is a unique story with a powerful message. An easy-to-pick-up read for all ages.

In The Purpose of Intervention, Martha Finnemore uses one type of force, military intervention, as a window onto the shifting character of international society. She examines the changes, over the past 400 years, about why countries intervene militarily, as well as in the ways they have intervened. It is not the fact of intervention that has altered, she says, but rather the reasons for and...
