Enrich your life by learning how to create pies, tarts, cakes and bakes that not only taste wonderful but also look amazing. Baking became a form of therapy for Julie when her mother, who taught her to bake, was diagnosed with dementia. They began baking together again, and Julie started her Instagram account as a way to document this precious time. Chapters include: Fruit Tarts and Pies, with an apple rose tart; Cakes, Bakes and Treats with dipped lemon madeleines and muddle cake; Bread and Yeasted Dough, with trampoline bread and grissini; Chocolate, including a stunning triple chocolate celebration cake and chocolate ganache; Desserts with delizia di limone; and Weekend Breakfast and Brunch, with banana, pecan and chocolate muffins. Julie Jones learnt to cook from her mother. It was never anything fancy but always packed with flavour, loaded with butter and made with love. Julie re-trained as a chef at the age of 30 and spent time in a Michelinstarred pub kitchen, where she realized how flavour could be taken to a whole new level. Finding herself pregnant three days before her wedding and then dealing with a dementia diagnosis for her own mum, her chef career was put on hold, but instead she started to take photos of the baking she did with her mum in her kitchen at home. Her personal story and her talent for baking quickly gained a very large and devoted Instagram following. Daily she receives message of support and thanks for her inspirational feed, as well as many photographs of the baking she has inspired in others. She has appeared on BBC TV’s new daytime cooking contest programme Yes Chef, judged by Pierre Koffman.

In craft beer’s early days, flavorful ales offered a stark contrast to the bland, mass-produced lagers that came to dominate the American beer market. But even as ales have driven craft beer growth, lager remains culturally entrenched as a synonym for beer. Quality craft lagers have largely escaped public acknowledgement… until now. Today, a lager renaissance is underway in the United States and abroad; intrepid breweries are rediscovering the joys of colder fermentation and pushing lagers well beyond the realm of pilsner. Lager offers a complete tasting guide to the full spectrum of lager styles, from Munich Helles and Festbier to California Common and Baltic Porter. Taste along and find your new favorite lager!

1000 SYMBOLS What Shapes Mean in Art and Myth Rowena Shepherd and Rupert Shepherd 1000 Symbols is a comprehensive single-volume dictionary of symbols each with a deﬁnition of its history and meanings.

Symbols are often seen as constituting an international language and to some extent they do, but that language is far from universal – context means everything in this complicated but engrossing form of communication. Take, for example, a cross, a crane, or a swastika: each one has a different and distinct significance and meaning for a Buddhist, an art historian, or a student of the occult. 1000 Symbols resolves the problem by offering groupings of related symbols, every one with a neat definition of its history and its cross-cultural meanings.

The name of David Brown is synonymous with the glory days of Aston Martin, when a tiny British sports car company was rescued from near-extinction and turned into a marque that could compete with Ferrari – and win. Stylish design, lavish illustration and meticulously researched text come together in this large-format, 224-page book to create a superb celebration of the 70th anniversary of DB Aston Martins in 2017. There’s a wealth of detail on the Aston Martin DB road and race cars, both from the David Brown era of 1947-1972 and the modern DB era from 1993 onwards, together high quality images and specification tables for all the key models. Aston Martin DB 70 Years is a fitting celebration of one of the world’s most enduring sports cars. The fast, beautiful sports cars that Aston Martin built under Brown’s ownership won the Le Mans 24-hour race and the World Sports Car Championship, and provided James Bond with his most famous transport: the ejector-seat equipped DB5 that won acclaim in Goldfinger. Though the DB era ended when Brown sold the company in 1972, its influence continued to be felt. James Bond’s most recent car, the specially-made DB10, and Aston Martin has just launched its most complete car ever, the DB11. ‘DB’ means as much to Aston Martin now as ever. Andrew Noakes trained as an automotive engineer but decided to go into motoring journalism, working for Fast Car magazine before launching the classic car title Classics. He teaches motoring journalism at Coventry University and is the chairman of the Guild of Motoring Writing as well as the author of more than a dozen motoring books including The Ultimate History of Aston Martin, Aston Martin DB7: The Complete Story and Aston Martin – Model by Model.

On Thursday 17 August, 1860, a wealthy widow was found dead in her own home. A veritable locked room mystery, there were an abundance of suspects, from disgruntled step children concerned about their inheritance and a spurned admirer repeatedly rejected by the widow, to a trusted employee, former police officer and spy, until he was sent to prison for robbery. During the police investigation there were several twists and dramatic discoveries, as suspects sought to incriminate each other and fresh evidence was discovered at the last minute. Eventually, it led to a public trial dominated by surprise revelations and shock witnesses, before culminating with one of the final public executions at Newgate. Years later the case caught the attention of Arthur Conan Doyle, who was convinced that an innocent man had been convicted and executed for the crime. But Conan Doyle was never able to find the real murder. Now, bestselling author Sinclair McKay has solved the case and will reveal it exclusively in The Mile End Murder. Sinclair McKay is the bestselling author of The Secret Life of Bletchley Park, The Lost World of Bletchley Park, The Secret Life of Fighter Command and The Secret Listeners for Aurum, as well as histories of Hammer films and the James Bond films.

In a world that has increasingly become tamed by human activity, the true wild holds a growing mysticism. Rugged landscapes with unspoilt scenery invoke romantic visions of paradise, but there are also intense and powerful wildernesses that produce fear and awe alike and unexplored zones where feral wildlife roams in the shadows. Chris Fitch takes you on a journey through the world’s most wild places, visiting immensely diverse floral kingdoms, remote jungles abundant with exotic birds, and both freezing cold and scorching hot inhospitable environments. From these natural havens we travel to the extreme and the incredible: lightening inducing lakes, acidic mud baths, and maneating tiger kingdoms. As well as those wildernesses being reclaimed by nature, such as Chernobyl, that after being left abandoned for years has returned to a natural wild habitat, free from human intervention. Not forgetting those most bizarre of destinations, such as the tidal surges of the Qiantang River, the bridge to Modo Island that emerges from the sea, and the strange magnetic pull of Jubuka rock. With beautiful maps and stunning photography, Atlas of Untamed Places is an intrepid voyage to nature’s most unusual, unpredictable, and extraordinarily wild destinations. Chris Fitch is senior staff writer for Geographical, the official magazine of the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG). After growing up among the wild tropical rainforests of Guadalcanal, Solomon Islands, he now lives in London.

Readers of the Telegraph Letters page will be fondly aware of the eclectic combination of learned wisdom, wistful nostalgia and robust good sense that characterise its correspondence. But what of the 95 per cent of the paper’s huge postbag that never sees the light of day? Some of the best letters inevitably arrive too late for the 24/7 news cycle, or don’t quite fit with the rest of the day’s selection. Others are just a little too whimsical, or indeed too risqué, to publish in a serious newspaper. And more than a few are completely and utterly (and wonderfully) mad. Thankfully Iain Hollingshead is on-hand to give the authors of the best unpublished letters the stage they so richly deserve.

The Time Machine and The Invisible Man H.G. Wells, Introduction by Allen Grove From the “father of science fiction,” H. G. Wells, comes two masterpieces of speculative storytelling: The Time Machine and The Invisible Man. The former propels the reader into the distant future, where a decaying Earth is being gradually swallowed by the Sun and where two strange species – the delicate Eloi and the fierce, subterranean Morlocks – inhabit an eerie dystopia. The latter offers the mesmerizing account of a bitter young scientist who discovers the chemical secret of invisibility, uses it on himself, and embarks on a terrifying descent into crime, obsession, and insanity. These cautionary tales are both horrifying and thought-provoking. Complete and unabridged, this clothbound softcover edition features an elastic closure and a new introduction.

The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Other Stories Washington Irving, Introduction by Krista Madsen A collection of timeless short stories by Washington Irving, this edition includes his two best-known classics, ‘The Legend of Sleepy Hollow’ and ‘Rip Van Winkle.’ Washington Irving’s short stories have captured the imaginations of generations since they were originally published in the early nineteenth century. His timeless characters like Ichabod Crane, the Headless Horseman, and Rip Van Winkle, are among the earliest of truly American literary figures. Complete and unabridged, this elegantly designed clothbound edition features an elastic closure and a new introduction by Krista Madsen.

Beowulf Translated by John Earle, Introduction by Tom Schneider Composed by an anonymous Anglo-Saxon singer toward the end of the first millennium AD, Beowulf is an Old English epic tale recounting the adventures of Beowulf, a Geatish hero from present-day Sweden. He is called on by Hrothgar, King of the Danes, to defeat Grendel, the powerful monster that threatens his great hall. As one of the earliest extant poems in a modern European language, it depicts a feudal world of blood, victory, and death – a world that exalts heroes who travel great distances to prove their strength, at impossible odds, against supernatural demons and beasts. Complete and unabridged, this clothbound softcover edition features an elastic closure and a new introduction.

The Last of the Mohicans James Fenimore Cooper, Introduction by Steven Frye Far and away the most popular volume of Cooper’s Leatherstocking Tales pentalogy, The Last of the Mohicans is the thrilling account of a bloody ambush of 500 to 1,500 Anglo-American troops who had honorably surrendered at Fort William Henry.

CLASSICS The Federalist Papers Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay, Introduction by Andrew Trees This compilation of eighty-five articles that explain and defend the ideals behind the highest form of law in the United States were written by Alexander Hamilton, the original US chief justice; James Madison, ‘Father of the Constitution’; and John Jay. Published anonymously in New York newspapers in 1787 and 1788, they foresaw many of the headline-grabbing political issues – impeachment, corruption, bureaucracy, and regulation – that we read about today. These essays, which were hailed by Thomas Jefferson as the best commentary ever written on the principles of government, are essential reading for students, lawyers, politicians, and anyone with an interest in the formation of societies. Complete and unabridged, this clothbound softcover edition features an elastic closure and a new introduction.

On the Origin of Species Charles Darwin, Introduction by Amit Hagar The publication of Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species in 1859 marked a dramatic turning point in scientific thought, but it also ignited a firestorm of controversy. More than two decades following his intercontinental voyage aboard the HMS Beagle, the English naturalist carefully advanced his theory of evolution by natural selection, offering coherent and highly readable views of adaptation, survival of the fittest, and other concepts that form the foundation of modern evolutionary theory.

Man vs Maths: Everyday Mathematics Explained

AURUM PRESS

Timothy Revell

MAN VS…

Man vs Maths explains the complexities of the mathematics of modern life and shows how understanding a little more maths can improve your life.

Man vs… explains to readers the science, theories and practicalities that impact on our everyday existence. The books tap into our instinctive curiosity about the world around us and shows us how understanding a little more can greatly improve our lives.

Could we solve queuing with an equation? How do algorithms control our news? What is the secret behind encryption codes? Mathematics is inescapable. Wherever you go, whatever you do, however you live your life, mathematics plays a role. From controlling a city’s traffic to finding love, spending money online to building a skyscraper, the mathematics at play in our world is fascinating. Yet despite its ubiquity, for many of us, how the maths of today really works remains complex. Timothy Revell distils these complexities in this essential guide to modern-day mathematics. Along the way we discover how social media trends work, why the universe has a favourite number and what this means for you. Man vs Maths shows you how understanding a little more mathematics can help improve your life.

Man vs Big Data: Everyday Data Explained Stewart Cowley Man vs Big Data distills the complexities of some of the most absorbing statistics and data of modern life and shows us how understanding a little more can help improve your life. Have you ever wondered how to beat the bookies? How does your computer know you might like this song? Should you be worried about this? We can’t answer that for you, but Man vs Big Data does explore the numerous ways in which ‘Big Data’ has, sometimes imperceptibly, infiltrated our lives. Everything we do leaves a trail of data behind, from buying something on a credit card, to using a GPS-enabled mobile phone – whether you know it or not, like it or not, Big Data is now a part of modern life. Heralded as the Fourth Industrial Revolution, it is now more crucial than ever to learn about how data is affecting the way we live. Man vs Big Data proves that this topic is one of the most important subjects facing us today and helps you get to grips with what that means for you.

MAN VS… SERIES Man vs Money: Everyday Economics Explained Stewart Cowley Man vs Money explains the complexities of the economics of modern life and shows understanding a little more economics can improve your life. Where is all the money? How does a country go bust? Should I get paid in Bitcoin? Wherever you go, whatever you do, however you live your life, money plays a role. Getting it, keeping it, and making more out of it has been one of man’s major preoccupations for the past five thousand years. From buying a sandwich to earning a wage, going on holiday to playing the lottery, how money and economics governs our world is fascinating. And it’s just about to get more curious; the arrival of modern banking, crowd funding, investments at the touch of a smartphone, and virtual currencies means, for many of us, it is even more complex. Stewart Cowley distils these complexities in this essential guide to modern-day money and our relationship with it. Along the way we discover how the statistics that govern our world are based on guesswork, why stock markets are like a wandering drunken man, what you need to live like a millionaire, and why cooking has made man the dominant species on the planet. Man vs Money is the must-have guide for anyone who wants to know how money affects our lives.

Man vs Mind: Everyday Psychology Explained Daniel Richardson Where do our thoughts come from? Do we all see the same blue? And how much is our eye really like a camera? The tool that sets humans apart from the rest of the animal kingdom, and the most crucial part of our very being – but what actually is it? From trying to decide whether or not we’re robots, understanding why some people commit acts of violence, to figuring out the art of persuasion; this essential guide to the inner workings of our minds explores the questions we really want to know the answers to. Making the complex comprehensible, Daniel Richardson provides a new insight into how our minds work and the role they play in modern life. Whether it’s pondering over why you’re usually right about everything, or discovering colour; Man vs Mind shows that you don’t need to be a psychologist to understand more about what’s going on up there.
