Charting his 15 years working as a GP, from rookie to becoming a partner in one of the UK’s busiest surgeries, Dr Amir Khan’s stories are as much about community and care as they are about blood tests and bodily fluids. Along the way, he introduces us to the patients that have taught him about love, loss and family - from the regulars to the rarities - giving him the most unbelievable highs and crushing lows and often in just 10 minutes.

Story156
David Attenborough first appeared in front of a television camera in the 1950s when, together with London Zoo's Curator of Reptiles, Jack Lester, he persuaded the BBC to mount and film an animal-collecting expedition. The result was Zoo Quest. Specially recorded for audio, David Attenborough's early adventures are sometimes life-threatening, often hilarious and always totally absorbing. The warmth and enthusiasm that have made him a broadcasting legend are instantly apparent here as he recounts this magical journey.

For six years Jim and Jamie Dutcher lived intimately with a pack of wolves, gaining their trust as no one has before. In this book the Dutchers reflect on the virtues they observed in wolf society and behavior. Each chapter exemplifies a principle, such as kindness, teamwork, playfulness, respect, curiosity, and compassion. Their heartfelt stories combine into a thought-provoking meditation on the values shared between the human and the animal world.

Elon Musk is among the most controversial titans of Silicon Valley. To some, he's a genius and a visionary, and to others, he's a mercurial huckster. Billions of dollars have been gained and lost on his tweets, and his personal exploits are the stuff of tabloids. But for all his outrageous talk of mind-uploading and space travel, his most audacious vision is the one closest to the ground: the electric car.

In this memoir, murder case lawyer William Clegg revisits his most intriguing trials, from the acquittal of Colin Stagg to the shooting of Jill Dando, to the man given life because of an earprint. All the while he lays bare the secrets of his profession, from the rivalry among barristers to the nervous moments before a verdict comes back, and how our right to a fair trial is now at risk.

Benjamin Franklin was more than a Founding Father. He was America’s first hacker. He was a printer, a scientist, a diplomat, and a self-made myth who rewired the world long before the Constitution was even an idea. In FRANKLIN: The Man Who Bottled Lightning, JJ pulls back the curtain on the real Franklin. The storm-chaser, the system-builder, and the charm weapon in a fur hat. This isn’t the wise old man on the $100 bill. This is the sharp-tongued runaway who crashed empires, invented solutions, won over nations, and made rebellion sound reasonable.

You’ve seen the headlines. The rockets. The cars. The Twitter chaos. The $290 million election bet. But you haven’t seen this. Most books about Elon Musk tell you what he did. This one tells you why. And the answer is far stranger, far darker, and far more human than anything you’ve read before. It starts in a bedroom in Pretoria, South Africa, where a small boy sat reading an encyclopedia for the third time while his father’s unpredictable mood filled the house below.
