Original publication and copyright date: 2010.\nAlexia Maccon, the Lady Woolsey, awakens in the wee hours of the mid-afternoon to find her husband, who should be decently asleep like any normal werewolf, yelling at the top of his lungs. Then he disappears; leaving her to deal with a regiment of supernatural soldiers encamped on her doorstep, a plethora of exorcised ghosts, and an angry Queen Victoria. But Alexia is armed with her trusty parasol, the latest fashions, and an arsenal of biting civility. So even when her investigations take her to Scotland, the backwater of ugly waistcoats, she is prepared: upending werewolf pack dynamics as only the soulless can. She might even find time to track down her wayward husband, if she feels like it. Changeless is the second book of the Parasol Protectorate series: a comedy of manners set in Victorian London, full of werewolves, vampires, dirigibles, and tea-drinking.

This early work by the British archaeologist, Flinders Petrie, was originally published in 1914 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'Amulets' is a scholarly work on the varieties of amulets found on archaeological digs. William Matthew Flinders Petrie was born on 3rd July 1853 in Kent, England, son of Wlilliam Petrie and Ann née Flinders. He showed an early interest in the field of archaeology and by his teenage years was surveying local Roman monuments near his family home. Flinders Petrie continued to have many successes in Egypt and Palestine throughout his career, most notably, his discovery of the Mernepte stele, a stone tablet depicting scenes from ancient times. His excellent methodology and plethora of finds earned him a Knighthood for his services to archaeology in 1923.

As usual, it’s been a busy month and it’s not quite clear in fact how it is already a new one. Terrible disasters in Haitia have led to a plethora of benefit gigs all over the shop to raise money for the cause. Nice to see everyone doing their bit. We are still not sure however of Simon Cowells ‘bit’, no one seems overly impressed that a U2 track is gong to be released, yet again. We, the Jack team are also massively happy about the congrats that go out to Fin AKA Starsmith and Ellie Goulding this month, our cover stars of Oct. They sped through the end of last year as some of the brightest shining potential on offer and are now ready, no doubt to conquer 2010. Other congratulations go out to Josh Weller, who after having a chat to us for our music feature last issue, went on to sign his publishing deal on Jan 18th. Best of ongoing luck to all. We told you 2010 was something to get excited about.
Pulverizing Portraits provides the first book-length study of contemporary American poet Lynn Emanuel. Emanuel's poetry is significant because it situates itself in relation to current debates about the state of poetry, creative writing in the academia, and the importance of drawing on interdisciplinary approaches to poetry via visual aesthe-tics, poststructuralist literary and theoretical perspectives, and philosophy. Camelia Elias takes a look at what characterizes contemporary American prose poetry, namely an intensified awareness of being close to something. Poets such as Lynn Emanuel have been increasingly concerned with poetry as a tool for cultural criticism which constantly redefines our poetic discourse. Elias traces the power of Emanuel's writing and looks at her subtleties in combining intrinsic and formal constraints in poetry with extrinsic and socio-historical methodologies. Elias's analyses of Emanuel's poetic genius culminate in a plethora of references which bring together painters, philosophers, poets, critics, and actors. Thus, the poet's father, the painter Akiba Emanuel, meets Giorgio Agamben, Charles Simic, Gertrude Stein, and Sharon Stone. They all contribute to voicing the world's \"interminable speeches.\"

A Phantom is a crystal or mineral deposit within a crystal. Phantoms are formed when the growth of a crystal has been interrupted and then begins to grow again. While the color of Phantoms will vary from crystal to crystal, depending upon the type of mineral of which they are made, Amphibole Phantoms often contain inclusions of (yellow) Limonite, (red) Hematite, (white) Kaolinite, or (pink) Lithium. Often, the original mineral gets washed away, leaving only the Quartz to grow afterwards. Angel Phantom Quartz is an excellent crystal to use with the Third Eye and Crown Chakras, as it enables you to gain a stronger connection to the Angelic realm as well as communication with your own Guardian Angel. This protective, high vibration stone increases our awareness of the spiritual realm, past-life recall and lucid dreaming. A bringer of intense love, beauty and joy, Angel Phantom Quartz is invaluable in the home, especially when you surround it with other angelic crystals such as Seraphinite, Angelite and Celestite. It will enable you to see your best inner strengths and increase your self-empowerment. The addition of the Angel Phantom Quartz inclusions offer added healing benefits - the grounding of Hematite, the protection against psychic attack of Limonite, and the intuition-building of Kaolinite - combining to form a crystal that is a must in order to be a step closer to Universal love. Keep an Angel Phantom Quartz crystal in your pocket, in your home, or in the workplace to know that your angels are always nearby. Clear Quartz Phantoms are excellent for balancing and aligning all the Chakras to the Crown Chakra. Those who are interested in spiritual growth and connection with the higher realms may find Clear Quartz Phantoms particularly helpful since the White Phantoms inside work with the Crown Chakra to integrate the experiences of the higher self into the other Chakras.

'A stunning and devastating indictment of a society scarred and defined by inequality, by one of the most charismatic and compelling voices in politics today' Owen Jones 'Faiza's work is living proof that you don't have to choose between focusing on class and battling racism, or to triangulate on hate in order to advance a political cause. She's a testament to the power of rising with your community, and not out of it' Ash Sarkar 'Shaheen overcame a plethora of barriers to get to Oxford and become a leading statistician. In this thought-provoking read, she uses her own unlikely story to probe how society defines your chances in life - and what we can do about it' i At four years old, Dr Faiza Shaheen was told by her mum that one day she would study at the University of Oxford. As the daughter of a car mechanic attending state schools, the odds were low, but she worked hard and succeeded. Today, she's a leading statistician and standing for election as a Member of Parliament. Why do we glorify success as personal triumph like this? These narratives purposely erase the role of public services, where you are born, and luck - and they tell us that anyone can follow the same path. Rather than making working-class mobility the norm, what Faiza accomplished makes her an exception, and it's statistically impossible for everyone to be the exception. The inconvenient truth, as this book proves, is that social mobility is a fairy tale. Society today will not give most of us the chance of a secure and fulfilling life. That is unacceptable. Part memoir, part polemic, Know Your Place is a personal and statistical look at how society and the economy are structured, what really defines your life chances and how our current system keeps us locked into an ugly hierarchy. But more than that, it's a powerful call for collective fighting to reinvent things as we want them to be; it's about breaking out, finding hope and not staying in your place. We can change things, and this is how.
