Injustice
Few would dispute that we live in an unequal and unjust world, but what causes this inequality to persist? Danny Dorling claims in this book that in rich countries social inequality is no longer caused by not having enough resources to share, but by unrecognised and unacknowledged beliefs which actually propagate it.
The Spectral Engine
"To glimpse the Spectral Engine is to face the moment of your own death. In Ray Fawkes's stunning and brilliantly conceived new graphic novel, the Spectral Engine is the unearthly entity that brings together thirteen historically documented ghost stories - from across the country and throughout the centuries - to tell a timeless narrative of life, death, and redemption. A ghostly white horse is a heartbreaking reminder of the clash between two warring First Nations tribes. Decades after the luxury ocean liner "Empress of Ireland" vanishes into the St. Lawrence River along with 1,012 souls, its wreckage continues to claim lives. A hunter's encounter with the Wendigo of the North leaves him with a terrible hunger. A young escaped slave attempts to make the treacherous journey to freedom via the Underground Railroad. The triumphant completion of the Canadian Pacific Railway brings only tragedy to a Chinese railway worker. And in a poignant story of urban isolation, a young woman discovers that loneliness transcends death. By turns chilling and moving, this breathtaking book is a powerful reminder of the deeply human desire to be remembered."--Provided by publisher.
