Half the Sky: How to Change the World order quantity
  +   -
NZ$ 35.00 each
Paperback
Author: Nicholas D. Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn
Pulitzer Prize-winning reporting team, husband and wife Nicholas D. Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, take us on a journey through Africa and Asia to meet an extraordinary array of exceptional women struggling against terrible circumstances.

More girls have been killed in the last fifty years, precisely because they are girls, than men were killed in all the wars of the twentieth century combined. More girls are killed in this routine 'gendercide' in any one decade than people were slaughtered in all the genocides of the twentieth century.

In the nineteenth century, the central moral challenge was slavery. In the twentieth, it was totalitarianism. In the twenty-first, Kristof and WuDunn demonstrate, it will be the struggle for gender equality in the developing world.

Fierce, moral, pragmatic, full of amazing stories of courage and inspiration,Half the Sky is essential reading for every global citizen.

Fever : How Malaria has Ruled Humankind for 500,000 Years order quantity
  +   -
NZ$ 33.00 each
Paperback
Author: Sonia Shah
Malaria is on the move. It already infects 300 million new people each year, killing nearly 1 million. With climate change it is moving into new regions of the world. We've known how to prevent this devastating disease for more than a century, so why aren't we doing more to eradicate it?
Sonia Shah takes us on a tour through the strange biology of the mosquito and the even stranger history of its relationship with humans over the ages. Frighteningly, few of the attempts we have made to control malaria have ever been truly successful, and vast sums of money have been wasted on a panoply of drugs and technologies. Even the current favoured solution, providing treated bednets to Third World countries, is of limited use.
You'll never feel the same about squashing a mosquito again.

Global Citizens order quantity

Author: Mark Gerzon
Ground-breaking and provocative, this book sets out a new way of thinking. It argues that our vision of the world is outdated and that, if we are to overcome the challenges we face today, we need a new mindset. Gerzon shows how we need to sharpen four essential skills - witnessing, learning, connecting and partnering - so we can become 'advocates for the whole' and start to take effective action. This unique, highly readable book will change the way you see yourself and the world. It dares you to become an engaged, committed global citizen.

Ill Fares the Land order quantity
  +   -
NZ$ 36.00 each
Paperback
Author: Tony Judt
Something is profoundly wrong with the way we think about how we should live today. In Ill Fares the Land, Tony Judt reveals how we have arrived at our present dangerously confused moment. As the economic collapse of 2008 made clear, the social contract that defined postwar life in Europe and America - the guarantee of a basal level of security, stability and fairness - is no longer guaranteed; in fact, it's no longer part of the common discourse. Judt offers the language we need to address our common needs, rejecting the nihilistic individualism of the far right and the debunked socialism of the past. To find a way forward, we must look to our not-so-distant past and to social democracy in action: to re-enshrining fairness over mere efficiency. Distinctly absent from our national dialogue, social democrats believe that the state can play an enhanced role in our lives without threatening our liberties. Instead of placing blind ... more
