In March 2022 on a farm in Fife, Scotland, a Golden Retriever puppy was born. Since leaving his family at the tender age of ten weeks to live with two housemates on the side of a Perthshire hill, he has written regularly to his best friend, Karen, who was present at his birth. He opens his heart to her about all of the things which are important to him – food, freedom, love-life and canine rights. \n\n\nThrough his correspondence, we can share the first year in the life of this young dog. A dog who considers himself to be very fortunate – he has a high IQ, extraordinarily good looks, and a strong social conscience. Modesty and humility? Well, perhaps he needs to work on those. While his housemates made some suggestions on how this book could be improved, Coco knows his own mind, and is happy to add literary genius to his long list of talents. To that end, he regards what you are about to read as all his own work. \n\n\nWelcome to the wonderful world of Coco!

A wonderfully accessible, up-to-the-minute account of human evolution by 'one of the most respected evolutionary psychologists in Britain' (Guardian). Of the dozen or so hominid species once in existence, why are we the only one to have survived? What is it that sets us so firmly apart from all the other creatures with whom we share the planet? How and when did that separation come about?

He promised her he would never let go. She’s willing to risk everything to hold on.\n\nIn the aftermath of her husband’s logging accident, Elsa has more questions than answers about how to carry on while caring for their two small children in the unfinished house he was building for them in the woods of rural Wisconsin. To cope with the challenges of winter and the near-daily miscommunications from her in-laws, she forges her own relationship with the land, learning from and taking comfort in the trees her husband had so loved. If she wants to stay in their home, she must discover her own capabilities, and accept help from the people and places she least expects.\n\nDunbar, drawing from her own lived experiences, vividly describes the wonder and harshness of life off the grid. Told over the course of a year, The Net Beneath Us is a lyrical exploration of loss, marriage, parenthood, and self-reliance; a tale of how the natural world - without and within us - offers us healing, if we can learn where to look.
