A painful reflection of racism in British sport … Bardowell ably demonstrates the power of the media to determine the narratives around these sporting lives – Observer
Derek A. Bardowell‘s deeply personal exploration into the complexities and biases implicit in being black in Britain is published now with an updated paperback package and a terrific set of quotes and end of year round-ups – this is set to be an important and essential paperback read this year. Derek met many independent booksellers at the BA social event in Chepstow in 2019 and at our annual IndieThinking event in January this year.
An extract from the book is available for independent booksellers to share.

Extraordinary Insects is a joy – The Times
A Sunday Times Nature Book of the Year 2019
Extraordinary Insects is a journey into the weird, wonderful and truly astonishing lives of the small but mighty creatures we can’t live without.
Working quietly but tirelessly, insects give us food, uphold our ecosystems, can heal our wounds and even digest plastic. They could also provide us with new solutions to the antibiotics crisis, assist in disaster zones and inspire airforce engineers with their flying techniques. But their private lives are also full of fun, intrigue and wonder. Here, we discover life and death, drama and dreams, all on a millimetric scale. Like it or not, Earth is the planet of insects, and this is
their extraordinary story.
