In search of a freer place where every child can go to school, a family moves from Fascist Portugal to Communist Czechoslovakia. Different as this new country is, however, it is far from ideal. In this new, gray world, the lack of freedom is felt in the simplest things, such as the colors one can and cannot wear.

A new edition of the gripping, best-selling story of MAC and the Free Wales Army - the men who, during the 1960s, challenged England's rule in the first Welsh armed rebellion since Owain Glyndwr. With foreword by Sian Dalis Cayo-Evans.

The most widely translated work in world literature after the Bible, Tao Te Ching or the Book of the Way is the classic text of Taoism, the ancient Chinese school of thought. Believed to be written by Lao-Tzu, the father of Taoism, Tao Te Ching applies timeless wisdoms on themes as diverse as statesmanship, ecology and love, and aims to give readers a serene and generous spirit. Stephen Mitchell s acclaimed new translation of the book's 81 homilies reveals as never before the gem-like lucidity and the pure poetry of this manual of the art of living from China of fourth century BC.

Tools for Conviviality is a 1973 book by Ivan Illich about the proper use of technology. It was published only two years after his previous book Deschooling Society. In this new work Illich generalized the themes that he had previously applied to the field of education: the institutionalization of specialized knowledge, the dominant role of technocratic elites in industrial society, and the need to develop new instruments for the reconquest of practical knowledge by the average citizen. He wrote that "[e]lite professional groups … have come to exert a 'radical monopoly' on such basic human activities as health, agriculture, home-building, and learning, leading to a 'war on subsistence' that robs peasant societies of their vital skills and know-how. The result of much economic development is very often not human flourishing but 'modernized poverty', dependency, and an out-of-control system in which the humans become worn-down mechanical parts." Illich proposed that we should "invert the present deep structure of tools" in order to "give people tools that guarantee their right to work with independent efficiency."

‘Towards the Decolonization of the British Educational System is an attempt to reflect the pressing issues surrounding the educational and emotional survival of black students, both citizens and expatriate in Britain through an educational system based on the falsification and distortions of history which occurred during the colonial era of the past .’   

'A brilliant, useful, and immensely moving book that deals a critical blow to the epistemic austerity of our times' - Jordy Rosenberg

'Femme' describes a constellation of queer, gendered expressions that uproot expectations of what it means to be feminine. Building upon experiences of transformation, belonging and harm, this book is a transfeminist call for collective liberation.

Trans Femme Futures envisions the future through everyday actions that revolutionise our lives. Nat Raha and Mijke van der Drift discuss struggles around trans healthcare, the need for collectives over institutions, the importance of mutual care, and transfeminism as abolition.

The authors show how social change can be achieved through transformative practices that allow queer life to thrive in a time of climate, health, political and economic crises.

We Rise: Voice and Survivorship began as a series of workshops led by vocal practitioner Marged Siôn in collaboration with We Rise Hub in the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham.

The project explores the possibilities of Voice as an embodiment practice to support women and non-binary people, who have experienced or are experiencing domestic abuse and gender-based violence. Through different exercises, we connected with our breath, resonance, body alignment, and imagination, as resources for vocal liberation.

Below are some of the questions that emerged from the project:

- How do we speak from our hearts?
- When is telling our stories healing and transformative?And when is it re-traumatising? And how can we create capacity within ourselves to know the difference?
- How can voicing and sounding together enable us to find strength in collectivity?
- How can working with the voice lead to personal and social transformation?

Following a two year collaborative process, we decided to create a free resource to share our experiences and exercises with other survivors, organisers, and practitioners, who are working towards futures free from intimate, interpersonal and state violence.

This booklet illustrates buildings which until recently were thought to be just a commonplace background to everyday life. It is not a history of industrial housing in Wales - that has yet to be written - but it does try to link the variety of house form which can (or rather, could) be seen in our towns with the conditions of life experienced by our ancestors. After this introduction, there are five sections in the booklet, each dealing with one aspect of the development of house design.
