A blend of Jared Diamond’s Guns, Germs, and Steel and Simon Winchester’s Pacific, a thrilling intellectual detective story that looks deep into the past to uncover who first settled the islands of the remote Pacific, where they came from, how they got there, and how we know.
For more than a millennium, Polynesians have occupied the remotest islands in the Pacific Ocean, a vast triangle stretching from Hawaii to New Zealand to Easter Island. Until the arrival of European explorers they were the only people to have ever lived there. Both the most closely related and the most widely dispersed people in the world before the era of mass migration, Polynesians can trace their roots to a group of epic voyagers who ventured out into the unknown in one of the greatest adventures in human history.
How did the earliest Polynesians find and colonize these far-flung islands? How did a people without writing or metal tools conquer the largest ocean in the world? This conundrum, which came to be known as the Problem of Polynesian Origins, emerged in the eighteenth century as one of the great geographical mysteries of mankind.
For Christina Thompson, this mystery is personal her Maori husband and their sons descend directly from these ancient navigators. In Sea People, Thompson explores the fascinating story of these ancestors, as well as those of the many sailors, linguists, archaeologists, folklorists, biologists, and geographers who have puzzled over this history for three hundred years. A masterful mix of history, geography, anthropology, and the science of navigation, Sea People combines the thrill of exploration with the drama of discovery in a vivid tour of one of the most captivating regions in the world.
Sea People includes an 8-page photo insert, illustrations throughout, and 2 endpaper maps.

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of National Populism The Revolt Against Liberal Democracy, a Pelican Book, written by Roger Eatwell and Matthew Goodwin and read by Matthew Goodwin. Â
A crucial new guide to one of the most urgent political phenomena of our time the rise of national populism.Â
Across the West, there is a rising tide of people who feel excluded, alienated from mainstream politics and increasingly hostile towards minorities, immigrants and neoliberal economics. Many of these voters are turning to national populist movements, which have begun to change the face of Western liberal democracy, from the United States to France, Austria to the UK. Â
This radical turn, we are told, is a last howl of rage from an aging electorate on the verge of extinction. Their leaders are fascistic and their politics antidemocratic, their existence a sideshow to liberal democracy. Â
But this version of events, as Roger Eatwell and Matthew Goodwin show, could not be further from the truth. Â
Written by two of the foremost experts on fascism and the rise of national populism, this lucid and deeply researched audiobook is a vital guide to our transformed political landscape. Challenging conventional wisdoms, Eatwell and Goodwin make a compelling case for serious, respectful engagement with the supporters and ideas of national populism - not least because it is a tide that won't be stemmed anytime soon.

Space Becomes You―A Mythology is a nearly 300-page art book stuffed with album-cover worthy photography and an out-of-this-world narrative that reads like 2001 A Space Odyssey crossed with a UFO cult. This studio monograph evolves thematically as an introduction, initiation, and submission to an intergalactic alien religion filled with surreal cosmic landscapes, psychedelic rituals, and curious beings.
The book’s striking imagery is intercut and supported by messaging that serves as cosmic transmissions and thoughtful meditations on how to understand humanity’s place within the universe. Someoddpilot guides you through this psychedelic trip and challenges you to answer the big questions myths are based on―â€who are you?†and “why are you here?â€
Bands, brands, celebrities, and political parties. Mythology is at the heart of our times - it unifies and divides us. Inspired by the quick and intense rise of political and cultural tribalism in the U.S. and Someoddpilot’s own practice of brand creation and world-building, the studio set out to create a new mythology, and this time everyone’s invited as one planet in a sea of stars.
In the age of tribalism, this is the biggest tribe of all. Now available in this galaxy and the next.

«Angela Marsons è la regina del giallo.» Antonio D’Orrico
Dall'autrice del bestseller Urla nel silenzio
Quando la polizia ritrova il cadavere di un’assistente sociale uccisa da un’unica letale coltellata, tutto fa pensare a una rapina andata male. Ma la detective Kim Stone è convinta che qualcosa non torni. Pochi giorni dopo, una tossicodipendente della zona viene ritrovata uccisa nello stesso identico modo. L’istinto di Kim le suggerisce che dietro ci sia la mano dello stesso assassino. Eppure non c’è niente a collegare le due vittime, a eccezione dell’inquietante precisione con cui sono state uccise una singola coltellata. Mentre Kim è alle prese con il caso, un fantasma del suo passato torna a farle visita con un’inquietante lettera che riapre antiche ferite, ancora non del tutto cicatrizzate. Se vuole davvero fermare l’assassino prima che il numero delle vittime cresca, dovrà rimanere vigile per districarsi nella fitta rete di intrighi e di bugie che le si sta stringendo attorno… anche se significa mettere in grave pericolo la sua stessa vita.

Antonio D’Orrico

D La Repubblica
«Angela Marsons è paragonabile al campione americano del thriller James Patterson.»
Il Corriere della Sera
«Un giallo superbo. Trama e scrittura sono semplici e afferrano il lettore come vuole la tradizione britannica. Solo che stavolta, al posto della campagna inglese, c’è la cruda realtà delle periferie. L’adrenalina è sino alla fine, per oltre 300 pagine. E non è facile, di solito.»
