Epitaphs of the Great War Passchendaele is an edited collection of headstone inscriptions from the graves of those killed during the Third Battle of Ypres – Passchendaele. Limited by the Imperial War Graves Commission to sixty-six characters – far more restrictive than Twitter's 140-character rule – these inscriptions are masterpieces of compact emotion. But, as Sarah Wearne says, their enforced brevity means that many inscriptions rely on the reader being able to pick up on the references and allusions, or recognise the quotations – and many twenty-first-century readers don't. Consequently she has selected one hundred inscriptions from the battlefield cemeteries and by expanding the context – religious, literary or personal – she has been able to give full voice to the bereaved. This collection, the second in a short series, will be published to coincide with the centenary of the opening of the Passchendaele offensive on 31 July 1917. Together with Epitaphs of the Great War The Somme, published on 1 July 2016, these books cover the epitaphs of the ordinary and the famous, the privileged and the poor, the generals and the privates and, after a hundred years, give us an insight into what contemporaries believed they had been fighting for and how they viewed the loss of the men they had loved.

Fresh Air is an exhilarating, freewheeling ride through landscapes and languages. The poems, all written on the move (tramping the Gobi desert, cycling in Irish drizzle, paddling in Tonga) have the fizz of travellers' tales, the enchantment and the melancholy of the open road. The Story of Molecule tells the tale of Molloy Gillies ( Molecule'), a semi-detached twelve-year-old who one night takes his bike from the shed and pedals off to escape Evolution. In Gallas's comical, heartbreaking sonnet-picaresque, Molecule encounters dangers, kindness, police cars and mauri on the roads of the South Island, while his father, his aunt, a bathroom fitter and a police chief wonder what life, and freedom, are all about.

Part reportage, part personal essay, part travelogue, False Calm finds Argentinian author María Sonia Cristoff writing against romantic portrayals of Patagonia as she journeys from one small town to the next. Cristoff returns home to chronicle the ghost towns left behind by the oil boom. She explores Patagonia's complicated legacy through the lost stories of its people and the desolate places they inhabit. In one town, a man struggles to maintain one of just two remaining stores because buses refuse to stop as scheduled; in another, the television in each household plays the same channel; elsewhere, she speaks with an amateur pilot who assembles model aeroplanes to keep himself company. Everywhere, Cristoff blends superstition, myth and firsthand accounts to conjure the reality of a Patagonia that unveils a startlingly lucid netherworld.

Leading the Shift: Enhancing Operational Efficiency With AI is a groundbreaking, experience-led guide for education leaders seeking to harness the power of artificial intelligence to drive meaningful transformation in their institutions. Written by Chris Loveday-a Vice Principal who led a sector-first AI implementation in a Sixth Form College, this book reframes AI not as a buzzword, but as a powerful tool for solving real, immediate operational challenges in education. While AI headlines often focus on classroom disruption or futuristic teaching tools, Loveday directs attention to where the greatest and most urgent gains can be made: in the back office. From automating data-heavy processes to reducing staff workload and improving service delivery, the book shows how AI, when applied thoughtfully, can create capacity, reduce pressure, and enhance outcomes for staff and students alike. Blending strategic insight with practical application, Leading the Shift walks readers through the entire implementation journey, from initial leadership buy-in and cultural groundwork to the development of bespoke AI agents and scaled deployment. It draws on established change models such as Burke-Litwin, Kotter, ADKAR, and Lewin's, integrating these frameworks with lived experience to demonstrate how to lead responsibly in a time of rapid technological advancement. Key features include: Real-World Case Studies: Learn how one college saved hundreds of hours through in-house AI agents built to automate results processing, ID verification, and student support. Ethical and Inclusive Design: Discover how to implement AI solutions that are safe, GDPR-compliant, and built around staff and student wellbeing. Strategic Leadership Tools: Use reflection questions, audit templates, and planning frameworks to inform your own AI roadmap. Customisation Over Commercialisation: Understand why building your own AI agents in-house can provide better value, flexibility, and control than off-the-shelf tools. Culture as Catalyst: Explore how digital trust, psychological safety, and inclusive communication are essential for sustainable innovation. This is not a technical manual or speculative vision. It's a leadership resource for education professionals, school business managers, senior leaders, MAT executives, governors, and policymakers, who want to act decisively and ethically in the face of emerging technology. Whether you're just starting your AI journey or seeking to scale an existing digital strategy, Leading the Shift offers clarity, courage, and a deeply practical blueprint. It's a must-read for anyone who believes that education can, and must, work smarter, not harder, in the age of intelligent automation. Join Chris Loveday in shaping the future of education, one intentional, values-led decision at a time.
