The Nutters Club
Mental health advocate and 2019 Kiwibank New Zealander of the Year Mike King is, in his own words, a ‘certified nut’. Since 2009, Mike has hosted the hugely popular Nutters Club show, now on NewstalkZB, as well as the TV programme of the same name, and as ‘Head Nut’ has seen the Club expand into an online community with a vast and loyal following. The Nutters Club deals with all the tough stuff that many would prefer to keep in the closet — mental health issues like anxiety and depression, drug and alcohol addiction, eating disorders, rape and sexual abuse — as told by real people sharing their life experiences to help others discover coping mechanisms, recovery and hope, in a way that is non-preachy and easy to understand. This book shares eleven of those stories, along with insights into Mike King’s own story and his battle with depression, drugs and alcohol. Candid and compelling, The Nutters Club is as relevant today as when it was first published in 2011. Enjoy!
Hurt
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Bestselling and award-winning author Lydia Michaels delivers a devastatingly dark romance with thrilling psychological twists that haunt and hypnotize in this uniquely poignant mafia romance!” Callan MacGregor’s tortured past is awakened when the woman he secretly loves is brutally attacked. His heart will not rest until vengeance is served. Violence made me vicious, and my sins are too many to count. When I look at her, I’m reminded of everything good and pure in this world. My redemption is hopeless, so I keep my distance, fighting the temptation to get closer to her, even when her eyes and body invite me in. Everyone I love disappears, so I must keep my distance to keep her safe. Distances and isolation are the price I must pay for the ruthless crimes I’ve committed. But when I see her hurting, nothing, not even my past, can keep me away. She is mine to protect, and I will be her justice and protection from the true monsters in this ugly world.

Transforming Conservation
There are severe problems with the decision-making processes currently widely used, leading to ineffective use of evidence, faulty decisions, wasting of resources and the erosion of public and political support. In this book an international team of experts provide solutions. The transformation suggested includes rethinking how evidence is assessed, combined, communicated and used in decision-making; using effective methods when asking experts to make judgements (i.e. avoiding just asking an expert or a group of experts!); using a structured process for making decisions that incorporate the evidence and having effective processes for learning from actions. In each case, the specific problem ...
Death of the Sorceress
And here I thought it was all about me. No one has ever accused me of being humble, but I never would have imagined that the group behind my recent problems had someone else in their sights all along. They’ve captured Emrick, my heart, soul and connection to this world, and I’m preparing for war to get him back. We don’t know what the enemy’s endgame is, but if they’ve snared a servant of Death, whatever they’re after could endanger the fate of the world. Along with my team, I’ll stand in their way, and Death itself will have to wait its turn. Because I’m not done yet. Not by a long shot.
Ten Thousand Birds
A beautifully illustrated history of modern ornithology Ten Thousand Birds provides a thoroughly engaging and authoritative history of modern ornithology, tracing how the study of birds has been shaped by a succession of visionary and often-controversial personalities, and by the unique social and scientific contexts in which these extraordinary individuals worked. This beautifully illustrated book opens in the middle of the nineteenth century when ornithology was a museum-based discipline focused almost exclusively on the anatomy, taxonomy, and classification of dead birds. It describes how in the early 1900s pioneering individuals such as Erwin Stresemann, Ernst Mayr, and Julian Huxley rec...
Christians, the Care of Creation, and Global Climate Change

It is a cogent and persuasive call to love God and our neighbors by caring for creation--especially in light of the dramatic climate changes occurring before our eyes. This book is not the final word on the subject, but it is a sincere invitation to examine the scientific evidence for global warming and to respond with individual and collective faithful actions.

Fighting for Birds
Devoted to birds and wildlife since childhood, Mark’s early scientific research at Oxford, Aberdeen and the RSPB provided a solid background for his management, ambassadorial, and political lobbying activities which were to follow – and his larger than life, yet quietly humane personality has provided the final tools in his own, unique, nature conservationists’ toolbox. In this book, Mark mixes a great many stories from his professional life at the RSPB with personal anecdotes and passionate arguments on past and present issues in bird and nature conservation. He shows us something of the many scientists whose work paves the way for conservation action, places domestic conservation int...
