"The Fate of the West : The Battle to Save the World's Most Successful Political Idea"
"When faced with global instability and economic uncertainty it is tempting for states to react by closing borders hoarding wealth and solidifying power We have seen it at various times in Japan France and Italy and now it is infecting all of Europe and America as the vote for Brexit in the UK has vividly shown This insularity together with increased inequality of income and wealth threatens the future role of the West as a font of stability prosperity and security Part of the problem is that the principles of liberal democracy upon which the success of the West has been built have been suborned with special interest groups such as bankers accruing too much power and too great a share of the economic cake So how is this threat to be countered? States such as Sweden in the 1990s California at different times or Britain under Thatcher all halted stagnation by clearing away the powers of interest groups and restoring their societies' ability to evolve To survive the West needs to be porous open and flexible From reinventing welfare systems to redefining the working age from reimagining education to embracing automation Emmott lays out the changes the West must make to revive itself in the moment and avoid a deathly rigid future"

"Feet in the Clouds : A Tale of Fell-Running and Obsession"
"Nearly 10 years after its first publication Aurum are re-issuing this classic running book which has defined a genre It includes an introduction from bestselling author Robert Macfarlane and an epilogue from Richard Askwith The concept of fell-running is simple it's a sport that involves running over mountains - sometimes one sometimes many It's also immensely demanding While running uphill is a stamina-sapping slog running pell-mell down the other side requires the agility - and even recklessness - of a mountain goat And there's the weather to contend with It may make the sports pages only rarely but in areas like the Lake District and Snowdonia fell-running is the basis of a whole culture - indeed race organisers sometimes have to turn competitors away so that fragile mountain uplands are not irrevocably damaged by too many thundering feet Fixtures like the annual Ben Nevis and Snowdon races attract runners from all over Britain and beyond Others such as the Wasdale and Ennerdale fell runs in the Lakeland valleys - gruelling marathons of more than 20 miles - remain truly local events for which the whole community turns out with many of the runners back on the same fells the next day tending sheep Now Richard Askwith explores the world of fell-running in the only legitimate way by donning his Ron Hill vest and studded shoes to spend a season running as many of the great fell races as he can from Borrowdale to Ben Nevis an arduous schedule that tests the very limits of one's stamina and courage Over the months he also meets the greats of fell-running - like the remarkable Joss Naylor who to celebrate his fiftieth birthday ran all 214 major Lakeland fells in a single week; Billy Bland the combative Borrowdale man whose astounding records still stand for many of the top races; and Bill Teasdale a hero of the sport's earlier professional days whom he tracks down to his tiny cottage in the northern Lakes And ultimately Askwith's obsession drives him to attempt the ultimate challenge the Bob Graham Round - a non-stop circuit of 42 of the Lake District's highest peaks to be completed within 24 hours This is a portrait of one of the few sports to have remained utterly true to its roots - in which the point is not fame or fortune but to run the ancient wild landscape and to be a hero if at all within one's own valley Feet in the Clouds is a chronicle of a masochistic but admirable sporting obsession an insight into one of the oldest extreme sports and a lyrical tribute to Britain's mountains and the men and women who live among them"
