Paperback. Zustand: New. In today's world, truth no longer triumphs because it is correct-it survives because it is emotionally persuasive, algorithmically amplified, and socially acceptable.In The Power of Perception - When Reality Loses the Battle, Dr Orhan Dragas explores what happens when perception overtakes fact, and when…feelings outweigh evidence. With clarity and depth, he shows how digital platforms, reputation networks, and emotional echo chambers have eroded shared reality, leaving societies vulnerable to manipulation, mistrust, and political radicalisation.Drawing on philosophy, psychology, and sociology, Dragas dismantles the illusion that technology is neutral. Instead, he reveals how algorithms and attention economics quietly shape what we accept as real.This is not just a book about "fake news" but a guide to understanding how truth itself is made - and unmade - in the 21st century. Thought-provoking and urgent, it challenges readers to confront a fundamental question: can we still agree on what reality is.

They had come to kill him. .' Who was K - and why should anyone kill him? Who was the bruised girl in Rome? Why did a refugee strangle his mistress in an hotel on the edge of the Arctic Circle? And why, in a small office above a wholesale fruiterers in Covent Garden, did a red-haired Scot sift through filing cabinets for the name of a man he knew in Burma twenty years ago? None of these questions might seem to concern Dr Jason Love, a country practitioner of Bishop's Combe, Somerset. But, in the end, they all do.Apart from his patients, Dr Love has apparently only two outside interests: his supercharged Cord roadster, and the occasional Judo lessons he gives to the local branch of the British Legion. But out of the past, to which all forgotten things should belong, a man comes to see him - and his simple, everyday country-life world is shattered like a mirror by a .38 bullet.

The story of what happened to him and his bodyguards in nine hours under fire is one of World War II's most terrifying true stories of personal heroism.

Paperback. Zustand: New. We Can't Even March Straight, first published in 1995, is Edmund Hall's ground-breaking account of the brutal treatment of gay and lesbian personnel in the Armed Forces when homosexuality was illegal in the Services. It exposed a secretive and systematic regime of discrimination and interrogation leading… to dismissal with disgrace, stripped of medals, pension and service record that devastated lives, careers and reputations, in the name of "good order and military discipline".This 30th anniversary edition reflects on the subsequent five year campaign to lift the ban on gays serving their country, overturned in 2000. Drawing on first-hand testimonies and Edmund's own dismissal from the Royal Navy, it charts the British military's progress from shame and persecution to a celebration of pride and diversity.With LGBT+ rights once again under threat in parts of the world, We Can't Even March Straight remains as urgent, courageous and relevant today as it was thirty years ago; a testament to those who suffered - lest we forget.

The Germans had a secret transmitter on one of their ships in the neutral harbour of Goa. Its purpose was to guide the U-boats against Allied shipping in the Indian Ocean. There seemed no way for the British to i…nfringe Goa?s Portuguese neutrality by force. But the transmitter had to be silenced. SOE was tasked with dealing with the problem, but how? Then it was remembered that 1,400 miles away in Calcutta was a source of possible help. A group of civilian bankers, merchants and solicitors were the remains of an old territorial unit called The Calcutta Light Horse. With a foreword by Earl Mountbatten of Burma.

Paperback. Zustand: New. 'Spanish Practices' weaves together nearly half a century of observations by Rico, an Englishman married into an eccentric family in a left-behind corner of Spain. Among others, we meet Macu, the maiden aunt who runs the family wine business with an iron fist and controls the family purse-strings; mother…-in-law Mami, whose sons can do no wrong, except when they do; brother-in-law Chus, who has a loose interpretation of the marriage vows and a dangerous weakness for the bottle; and younger brother-in-law Sancho, who becomes pivotal to the family's succession battles and their struggles with the local rival winery. Initially an outsider, Rico is drawn ever deeper into the family mire as well as facing, with his wife Marina, his own fraught relationships with neighbours, local planning laws and the busy body 'Authorities'. Through the interplay of rivalries, conflicts and vicissitudes 'Spanish Practices' illuminates the idiosyncrasies of Spanish ways and exemplifies the travails of a society in the throes of wholesale transformation.

Paperback. Zustand: New. The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.? Miriam Hassan stands in the defendant's dock at Birmingham Crown Court charged with the cold-blooded murder of her well-known, rich, charismatic husband Zaf, to which she pleads not guilty. However, nothing is straightforward. There is conflicting wi…tness testimony. The couple argued on the day in question, and Miriam was overheard threatening him. A witness places her at the scene of the crime. Miriam's evidence casts doubt on her guilt, but no one can corroborate it. It soon becomes apparent that both Zaf and the marriage were not as they seemed. Miriam discloses details about the 'gaslighting' and emotional abuse she suffered, and the court also discovers that Zaf in fact had a number of enemies. On the other hand, Miriam stands to inherit Zaf's vast fortune if she walks free.
