Steampunk
The Badger is back! At Toad Hall, lair of multibillionaire. Baron Aristotle Krapaud, a cabal of industrialists and fat cats plot the violent overthrow of the French state by the intervention of horribly beweaponed automaton soldiers. Meanwhile, the brutal murder of a famous Parisian artist, mysteriously stabbed to death in his locked and guarded studio, is subject to the investigations of the tenacious Detective Inspector LeBrock of Scotland Yard, placing him and his faithful adjunct, Detective Sergeant Roderick Ratzi, in pursuit of the mysterious masked assassin stalking the cut-throat commercial world of the Grandville art scene. Bete Noire signals the welcome return to anthropomorphic steampunk detective fiction of master storyteller and graphic novel pioneer “Bryan Talbot” with the third stand-alone volume of the Eisner and Hugo Award nominated “Grandville” series.As the body count mounts and events spiral exponentially out of control, aided by his brilliant deductive abilities and innate ferocity, LeBrock battles against outrageous odds in this funny, high octane thriller, an adventure shot through with both high art and comic book references, a glorious illegitimate offspring of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Ian Fleming – with animals! Follow the Badger!

‘Thank god…that occasionally books of the stature of Laurence Rees’ superb “Auschwitz: The Nazis and the ‘Final Solution'” are published that try to redress the balance…fascinating’ – Andrew Roberts “Evening Standard”. In his highly acclaimed bestseller “Auschwitz” author and broadcaster Laurence Rees tells the definitive history of the most notorious Nazi institution of them all. we discover how Auschwitz evolved from a concentration camp for Polish political prisoners into the site of the largest mass murder in history – part death camp part concentration camp where around a million Jews were killed. Rees uses Auschwitz as a window through which to examine the Holocaust in its broader context.He argues that far from being an aberration the camp was a uniquely important institution in the Nazi state one that played a vital role in the ‘Final Solution’. “Auschwitz” examines the mentality and motivations of the key Nazi decision makers and perpetrators of appalling crimes speak here for the first time about their actions. Fascinating and disturbing facts have been uncovered – from the operation of a brothel to the corruption that was rife throughout the camp.The book draws on intriguing new documentary material from recently opened Russian archives which will challenge many previously accepted arguments. Auschwitz lay at the hub of a complex system of extermination that spread throughout Nazi Europe. Rees addresses uncomfortable questions such as why so few countries under Nazi occupation protected their Jews and why the Allies did little directly to prevent the killing even after they knew about the existence of the camp.Laurence Rees’ unforgettable account of the notorious Nazi camp is a story of murder brutality courage escape and survival and a powerful study of how a human tragedy of such immense scale could have happened.’Excellent’ – Boyd Tonkin “Independent”. ‘…a key to understanding man’s inhumanity to man’ – Ian Thomson “Guardian”. ‘Well-written…with striking testimonies from bystanders perpetrators and victims…The interviews with SS men and sundry European Fascists are genuinely revealing and must have been exceptionally difficult to negotiate’ – Michael Burleigh “Daily Telegraph”.’Devastating…Rees’ research is impeccable and intrepid…Ultimately he does at the gut level what Hannah Arendt achieved some 40 years ago at the level of philosophy: he forces the reader to shift the Holocaust out of the realm of nightmare or Gothic horror and acknowledge it as something all too human…Scrupulous and honest this book is utterly without illusions’ – David Von Drehle “Washington Post” USA. ‘This magnificent book…exciting and disturbing at the same time’ – Rafael Nunez Florencio “El Mundo” Spain. ‘I believe that Rees’ book will be included in the canon of fundamental works shaping our knowledge about the Holocaust’ – Wladyslaw Bartoszewski former Polish Foreign Minister and one-time inmate of Auschwitz.

Eye Massager Our Eye Massager is brilliant for effective relief from stress, headaches and migraines. As seen on Richard and Judy and developed from Chinese acupuncture, massage and magnetic principles, the Eye Massager alleviates eye fatigue caused by extensive use of computers, long periods of driving, studying and reading. It reduces wrinkles by improving tone and elasticity by increasing blood circulation, nourishing the skin whilst allowing for more efficient removal of waste products from skin cells. A great pampering gift for Birthdays, Christmas and Mother’s Day, the Eye Massager reduces bags, swollen or puffy eyes along with the dark rings caused by poor blood circulation. With 2 vibrating settings, the Eye Massager alleviates Insomnia by inducing a state of deep relaxation that allows for a restful night’s sleep. The Eye Massager The Eye Massager revives tired eyes with a vibrating massage on your vital acupuncture points Eye plates are dotted with holes allowing you to see out of the Eye Massager Mask if required and help to relax your eyes The Mask has an elastic, Velcro head strap to fit all adult head sizes It takes 1 x AA battery Our eye mask measures approx 17 cm x 10 cm 10.5 cm Great pampering gifts for ages 16 to 160! The Eye Massager does all this by combining three therapies in one superb massager: 1. Massage Therapy – When eyes are strained and tired, massaging the temple and surrounding area helps remove tension by stimulating nerves around the eye, reducing stresses within. Such stimulation improves micro-circulation, activating and regulating the muscle fibres helping to increase resistance to eye diseases. 2. Pinhole Therapy – The eye massager uses a lens with multiple pinholes many focused images form on the retina and a clear natural image is seen. No effort is required from the eye muscles as the only rays entering the eye are already in focus, consequently there is a dramatic relaxing effect. 3. Magnetic Therapy – For hundreds of years wonder and magic have been associated with the mysterious forces exerted by natural magnets. Magnetic devices have been claimed to relieve pain and to have therapeutic value against a large number of diseases and conditions, the most common being the improvement of blood circulation. Although not proved scientifically, many believe that magnetic therapy does have a well-being effect upon the body. With this in mind the eye massager emits a mild Bionorth body facing magnetic field intended to further enhance the blood circulation.

The Communist Manifesto (1848) Marx and Engels’s revolutionary summons to the working classes is one of the most important and influential political theories ever formulated. After four years of collaboration the authors produced this incisive account of their idea of Communism in which they envisage a society without classes private property or a state. They argue that increasing exploitation of industrial workers will eventually lead to a revolution in which Capitalism is overthrown. This vision provided the theoretical basis of political systems in Russia China Cuba and Eastern Europe affecting the lives of millions. The Communist Manifesto still remains a landmark text: a work that continues to influence and provoke debate on capitalism and class.
