How does it feel to be constantly regardedas a potential threat, strip-searched at every airport?Or to be told that, as an actress, the partyou're most fitted to play is 'wife of a terrorist'? How does it feel to havewords from your native language misused, misappropriated and used aggressivelytowards you? How does it feel to hear a child of colour say in a classroom thatstories can only be about white people? How does it feel to go 'home' to Indiawhen your home is really London? What is it like to feel you always have to bean ambassador for your race? How does it feel to always tick 'Other'?Bringing together 21 exciting black, Asianand minority ethnic voices emerging in Britain today, The Good Immigrant explores why immigrants come to the UK, why theystay and what it means to be 'other' in a country that doesn't seem to wantyou, doesn't truly accept you-however many generations you've been here-but stillneeds you for its diversity monitoring forms.Inspired by discussion around why societyappears to deem people of colour as bad immigrants-job stealers, benefitscroungers, undeserving refugees-until, by winning Olympic races, or bakinggood cakes, or being conscientious doctors, they cross over and become goodimmigrants, editor Nikesh Shukla has compiled a collection of essays that arepoignant, challenging, angry, humorous, heartbreaking, polemic, weary and-most importantly-real.

"40 years of music writing from the frontline."

Sport has an extraordinary, unique capacity to challenge and change society - to bring joy and hope; to improve physical and mental health, reduce loneliness and build self-esteem and happiness. It's also a multi-billion-pound commercial industry that can transform lives, businesses, nations and regions. Why has half the population been deprived of access to something so culturally powerful?In recent years, the landscape for women's sport has finally begun to shift. We've seen significant increases in investment, spectators and media coverage. More women as professional athletes and taking influential roles as board directors, editors, officials and CEOs.Yet female athletes still don't get equal opportunities or funding. In many sports, women receive less prize money, lower sponsorship revenues and a tiny fraction of the media coverage. Drawing on her own experiences, and interviews with high profile Olympic and Paralympic champions, broadcasters, journalists, sports scientists, CEOs, officials and sponsors, Sue Anstiss investigates why women have been excluded from the world of sport for centuries - and why we are now witnessing positive change as never before.Game On is a celebration of the trailblazing women opening doors for others and a manifesto for women's sport - a rallying cry to ensure the progress we are currently seeing goes from strength to strength.

As a gay man living in London and working as a nutritionist, Daniel O'Shaughnessy knows that the LGBTQ+ community has specific dietary and health needs. Yet while there is huge demand for this kind of information in his private practice, there is very little reliable public information out there for the community to access - and not everyone can afford a Harley Street nutritionist like him. Naked Nutrition seeks to change that: it is the first LGBTQ+ focused guide to diet and lifestyle, taking an honest, inclusive and non-judgemental approach to the questions Daniel is asked most frequently. It covers a wide range of subjects, giving detailed, practical advice on matters including: weight loss and muscle gain, digestive health issues, addiction, sex, fertility, nutrition for balancing hormones while transitioning, how to eat if you have a chronic condition, and how to mitigate against the party lifestyle.
