This August we’re excited to share four very different nonfiction books: a searching examination of police brutality and corruption, the realities of global microfinancing, a neurodiverse guide to navigating the world of ‘normal people’, and an epic adventure into the internal world of your gut microbiome.
📓 WHEN COPS ARE CRIMINALS, edited by Veronica Gorrie, is a powerful indictment of the criminal behaviour of the police force and a call for institutional reform.
📘 WE ARE NOT ABLE TO LIVE IN THE SKY by Mara Kardas-Nelson investigates the seductive global promise (and perils) of microfinance through the experiences of those who work in small-scale lending and of women borrowers in Sierra Leone.
📕 THE AUTIST’S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY by Clara Törnvall @claratornvall (translated by Alice E. Olsson) flips the script on our usual conversations about autism by playfully dissecting the absurdities of the neurotypical world.
📒 FOLLOW YOUR GUT by Ailsa Wild, Lisa Stinson, Briony Barr, Gregory Crocetti, and illustrated by Ben Hutchings, is a fascinating and detailed collaboration by artists, scientists, and educators into the inner workings of the ecosystem inside you.
