On Bullshit by HARRY G FRANKFURT

One of the most salient features of our culture is that there is so much bullshit. Everyone knows this. Each of us contributes his share. But we tend to take the situation for granted. Harry G Frankfurt, one of the world’s most influential moral philosophers, explores how bullshit and the related concept of humbug are distinct from lying. Frankfurt concludes that although bullshit can take many innocent forms, excessive indulgence in it can eventually undermine the practitioner’s capacity to tell the truth in a way that lying does not. By virtue of this, Frankfurt writes, bullshit is a greater enemy of the truth than lies are.

One Hot Summer: Dickens, Darwin, Disraeli, and the Great Stink of 1858 by ROSEMARY ASHTONHistorian Rosemary Ashton reveals in this compelling microhistory, 1858 was marked by significant, if unrecognised, turning points. For ordinary people, and also for the rich, famous, and powerful, the months from May to August turned out to be a summer of consequence. Ashton mines Victorian letters and gossip, diaries, court records, newspapers, and other contemporary sources to uncover historically crucial moments in the lives of three main protagonists - Charles Dickens, Charles Darwin, and Benjamin Disraeli.

Trading in War: London’s Maritime World in the

Age of Cook and Nelson by MARGARETTE LINCOLN

In the half-century before the Battle of Trafalgar the port of London

became the commercial nexus of a global empire and launch pad

of Britain’s military campaigns in North America and Napoleonic

Europe. The unruly riverside parishes east of the Tower seethed

with life, a crowded, cosmopolitan, and incendiary mix of sailors,

soldiers, traders, and the network of ordinary citizens that served

them. Harnessing little-known archival and archaeological sources,

Lincoln recovers a forgotten maritime world.

The Vory: Russia’s Super Mafia by MARK GALEOTTI

Mark Galeotti is the go-to expert on organised crime in Russia, consulted by

governments and police around the world. Now, Western readers can explore

the fascinating history of the vory v zakone, a group that has survived and thrived

amid the changes brought on by Stalinism, the Cold War, the Afghan War, and the

end of the Soviet experiment. The Vory - as the Russian mafia is also known - was

born early in the twentieth century, largely in the gulags and criminal camps,

where they developed their unique culture. Identified by their signature tattoos,

members abided by the Thieves’ Code, a strict system that forbade all paid

employment and cooperation with law enforcement and the state.

The Tyranny of Metrics by JERRY Z MULLER

Today, organisations of all kinds are ruled by the belief that the path to success is quantifying human performance, publicising the results, and dividing up the rewards based on the numbers. But in our zeal to instill the evaluation process with scientific rigor, we’ve gone from measuring performance to fixating on measuring itself. The result is a tyranny of metrics that threatens the quality of our lives and most important institutions. In this timely and powerful book, Jerry Muller uncovers the damage our obsession with metrics is causing - and shows how we can begin to fix the problem.
