NOMINATED FOR THE 2018 BRAM STOKER AWARDSSecret, strange, dark, impure and dissonant...Enter the haunted landscapes of folk horror, a world of pagan village conspiracies, witch finders, and teenagers awakening to evil; of dark fairy tales, backwoods cults and obsolete technologies. Beginning with the classics Night of the Demon, Witchfinder General, The Wicker Man and Blood on Satan's Claw, We Don't Go Back surveys the genre of screen folk horror from across the world. Travelling from Watership Down to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, with every stop inbetween, We Don't Go Back is a thoughtful, funny and essential overview of folk horror in TV and cinema."A beautiful rumination on the dark films and television that shaped me and a generation of odd children, for good or ill, worth a year of your time, because you won't just read the book, you'll feel a burning desire to watch everything mentioned within." - Robin Ince, The Infinite Monkey Cage "A comprehensive, accessible and often riotously funny tome weaving together folk horror in all its forms, from British television to the American backwoods, from Eastern European fairytales to the vengeful ghosts of East Asia. Ingham explores uncanny landscapes haunted by things buried, old cultures converging with the reluctance of contemporary reason, that very tension that gives his book its name. He attempts to both define folk horror and free it from definition, creating the ultimate guide to the genre's manifestations on film and offering a convincing argument as to why the genre resonates so compellingly with people today." - Kier-La Janisse, author of House of Psychotic Women

This is the first authoritative guide to provide help for impulse control sufferers and those who love them. Most of us have urges to engage in behaviors we know are not good for us, from splurging on gifts we can't afford to gambling. But when these urges become too much to handle, we can suffer intense emotional distress, putting our friendships, relationships, and jobs in jeopardy. Impulse control disorders are often difficult to recognize, even for those who struggle with them, but they are not uncommon. Now, the nation's leading specialists in the field offer a powerful self-help guide for the estimated 35 million sufferers and their loved ones."Stop Me, Because I Can't Stop Myself" tackles the essential questions on the road to healing: how to know if you, or someone you care about, has a problem; how to recognize impulse control problems in children, adolescents, and the elderly; what medical, pharmacological, and therapeutic treatments are available; how impulse control disorders differ from Tourette's syndrome, alcohol addiction, and other substance abuse problems; what family, friends, and patients themselves can do; and, where to find additional help. Also included in this hopeful and encouraging book are compelling first-hand stories of the authors' patients, and invaluable analyses of groundbreaking new treatments.

A personal journey with Crohn's disease: months of excruciating treatment and the enduring effect it has on the author's emotional state and relationship with food--as well as on his wife, children, and friends. In this beautifully written memoir, both gut-wrenching and inspiring, award-winning writer Jon Reiner tells the story of his agonizing battle with Crohn's disease--and the extraordinary places his hunger and obsession with food took him. I'm a glutton in a greyhound's body, a walking contradiction, in the grip of the one thing I can't have--food, writes Reiner, who details what happens when that which keeps you alive, that bonds us together and marks life's special occasions, becomes a toxic substance, an inflammatory invader. His unvarnished account depicts an explosive medical emergency, a marriage in crisis, children faced with grown-up fears, a man at a life-and-death crossroads sifting through his past and his present. And it captures a tough, courageous climb out of hopelessness as Reiner began a process of healing in body and mind, discovering a renewed appetite, any way he could manage it, for the things that truly matter most.

If Only They Didn't Speak English
'You see, if only they didn’t speak English in America, then we’d treat it as a foreign country – and probably understand it a lot better’‘the sanest man in America’ – Bill Bryson‘Jon Sopel nails it’ – Emily Maitlis**With a brand new chapter, charting Trump's first year in power**As the BBC’s North America Editor, Jon Sopel has had a pretty busy time of it lately. In the time it’s taken for a reality star to go from laughing stock to leader of the free world, Jon has travelled the length and breadth of the United States, experiencing it from a perspective that most of us could only dream of: he has flown aboard Air Force One, interviewed President Obama and has even been described as ‘a beauty’ by none other than Donald Trump.Through music, film, literature, TV and even through the food we eat and the clothes that we wear we all have a highly developed sense of what America is and through our shared, tangled history we claim a special relationship. But America today feels about as alien a country as you could imagine. It is fearful, angry and impatient for change.In this fascinating, insightful portrait of American life and politics, Jon Sopel sets out to answer our questions about a country that once stood for the grandest of dreams, but which is now mired in a storm of political extremism, racial division and increasingly perverse beliefs.

The summer of 1976. Lankin Moors Wildlife Park, surrounded by moorland and buried deep within the English countryside, is a micro-society of people and animals. An insular, self-serving kingdom that is home to riotous parties, drunken pub nights and drugs. After the sudden and unexplained death of one of the elephants, the zoo staff desperately cling to their hedonistic lifestyle as feelings of hate, envy and lust, stoked by an endless heatwave, threaten to bubble to the surface. This threat becomes reality as a sporadic madness mysteriously sweeps through the zoo, affecting animals and keepers alike and triggering a dramatic chain of events that finally leads new education officer Matt, along with his allies - Gajadhar, an Indian mahout, and Susie, the local vet - to a heart stopping fight for survival.

What happens when real-life trauma collides with unshakable faith? SWAT: Seeking Wisdom and Truth is a powerful, story-driven Christian book that takes readers into the front lines of law enforcement-and the front lines of the soul. Drawing from more than two decades of police work, author Jon Zirpolo shares true, raw experiences from patrol cars, crash scenes, swamps, schools, and homes where life hangs in the balance. But this is not just a book of police stories. Each chapter connects real-world encounters with timeless biblical truth, offering honest reflections on faith, doubt, failure, contentment, temptation, grief, worth, and redemption. From devastating accidents and encounters with addiction to moments of compassion, conviction, and grace, Zirpolo challenges readers to examine what it truly means to be Seeking Wisdom and Truth-not just in belief, but in action. Using Scripture, personal storytelling, and thoughtful reflection questions, SWAT speaks directly to: Christians struggling with doubt or spiritual burnout Readers wrestling with guilt, trauma, or past mistakes Those searching for purpose, hope, and renewed faith Small groups, Bible classes, men's studies, and personal devotion This book does not shy away from hard topics-including death, addiction, suicide, and brokenness-but it always points back to God's mercy, the value of every soul, and the transforming power of the gospel. You're either seeking wisdom and truth-or you're not. This is not a spectator's journey. This is SWAT school.
