What Was Sex Like for a Medieval Woman?

“Wickedly entertaining, informative and thought-provoking. An insightful, modern look at the lives of women as they were.” —Dr. Markus Kerr, PhD, MDR.

#1 New Release in Etiquette Guides & Advice

An inside look at sexual practices in medieval times. Were medieval women slaves to their husband's desires, jealously secured in a chastity belt in his absence? Was sex a duty or could it be a pleasure? Did a woman have a say about her own female sexuality, body, and who did or didn’t get up close and personal with it? No. And yes. It’s complicated.

Romance, courtship, and behind closed doors. The intimate lives of medieval women were as complex as for modern women. They loved and lost, hoped and schemed, were lifted up and cast down. They were hopeful and lovelorn. Some had it forced upon them, others made aphrodisiacs and dressed for success. Some were chaste and some were lusty. Having sex was complicated. Not having sex, was even more so.

Inside The Very Secret Sex Lives of Medieval Women, a fascinating book about life during medieval times, you will discover tantalizing true stories about medieval women and a myriad of historical facts. Learn about:

• The true experiences of women from all classes, including women who made history
• The dos and don’ts in the bedroom

Shooting Down Gun Violence Misinformation

"Don't tell me there's no such thing as gun violence. It happened in Parkland." ―Fred Guttenberg

#1 Best Seller in School Safety, Education Policy, and Law Enforcement Politics

Fred Guttenberg, who lost his beloved daughter Jaime in the 2018 Parkland school shooting, and International gun policy consultant Thomas Gabor team up in American Carnage to dismantle some of the most common myths about guns and gun violence.

A national disgrace. In America, over 40,000 die each year as a result of gun violence. Relative to other advanced countries, the U.S. has a dismal gun violence record. Gun law reforms could reduce the number of gun deaths, but many political challenges stand in the way. A widespread multi-year misinformation assault on truth by the gun lobby and gun-extremists sows doubt about the dangers of pervasive gun ownership, gun carrying, and potential effectiveness of gun laws.

Debunking popular gun myths. Countering with strong evidence-based research the many slogans and myths repeated incessantly by spokespersons for the gun lobby and its surrogates is essential if we are to have a society where kids can attend school safely and people can work and enjoy life without fear of being shot. Over the last 30 years, the NRA’s campaign to achieve an armed society has succeeded in persuading many Americans that having a gun in the home or carrying a gun makes them safer. The evidence is overwhelming this is not the case. Guns in the home are far more likely to be used against a family member or in a suicide attempt than against an intruder. Tackling this and other myths is critical.

Myths and slogans exposed as false in American Carnage include:

• Gun owners frequently use firearms to fend off attackers
• An armed society is a safer society
• Guns don’t kill people, people kill people

If you have read Trigger Points, The Violence Project, Warning Signs, or Fred Guttenberg’s Find the Helpers, American Carnage is a must read.

From the swoon-worthy lessons on love found in When Harry Met Sally to the pain of forbidden love in Brokeback Mountain to the cautionary tales of unchecked ambition in Ex Machina, Virk dives into movies that define, challenge, and reflect society at its best and worst. But this isn’t just a history lesson—it’s a lively conversation filled with sharp wit, personal insights, and fascinating behind-the-scenes tidbits that film lovers crave.

With his trademark humor and encyclopedic knowledge, Virk doesn’t just analyze movies—he uses them as a lens to explore timely themes of race, religion, politics, and sports in these unprecedented times. Cinephile is both a passionate love letter to cinema and a brilliant examination of humanity itself. Whether you're a casual moviegoer or a die-hard cinephile, this book will leave you entertained, enlightened, and eager to watch more.

An exploration of the sexual landscape by comedian and TV personality Sofie Hagen

A Fearne Cotton Happy Place Book Club Pick

Comedian Sofie Hagen has not had sex in 3,000 days (and counting). And it turns out, she's not the only one.

In an attempt to find out why we're not having the sex we want, Sofie asks the questions: Can we blame a lacking sex education? Is it all just sexual trauma? Where's the radical sexual liberation we were promised? What are we going to do about this? Should she have slept with that guy in that bush that one time? How do you overcome being a 35-year-old virgin (when it comes to queer sex, that is)? How do the socially awkward and the neurodiverse have sex?

In Will I Ever Have Sex Again?, Sofie Hagen explores the quirks and difficulties of being an "involuntary celibate" (but one of the feminist, progressive ones). With a blend of memoir and conversations with experts, therapists, sex workers, porn stars, comedians, and public figures, this is a humorous and bold undertaking to gain a better understanding of how we can think, talk, and feel about sex.

Oasis were a band like bands used to be: hard-drinking and substance-abusing. If they liked you, they loved you. If they didn't, you had to be prepared for confrontation.

Iain Robertson is used to tough jobs; after retiring from the Parachute Regiment, he took on jobs guarding George Harrison, Gary Moore, and Johnny Rotten. But keeping Oasis on the rails after debut album Definitely Maybe ignited their rise toward global superstardom would be the toughest gig of them all.

Oasis would explode into public consciousness and have the world at their feet in the wake of their epic first album and a huge world tour. Iain Robertson was side-by-side as their road manager and minder, twenty-four hours a day, eight days a week, as they took on the world and won. No one was closer. Now updated with new unpublished material ahead of the thirty year anniversary of Definitely Maybe, this story is the defining chronicle of life on tour with Oasis.

Plant-Based Diet Benefits You Should Not Ignore

“If every patient in every doctor's office read this book, it would revolutionize the health of America.” —Neal Barnard, MD, president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine

#1 Bestseller in Agriculture & Food Policy, Vegetables, Special Diet, Vegan & Vegetarian, Healthy Living, Personal Health, and Diets & Weight Loss

A book from the over-one-million-copies-sold author who made popular the connections between diet, physical health, animal cruelty, and environmentalism.

A revolution in food-politics. When John Robbins released an early version of this book in 1987, he took the first steps in the food revolution. His insight into the harm caused by America’s eating habits was a wake-up call for many.

Making conscious food choices. It is obvious to us that what we eat affects our bodies, but what we may not realize is that what we eat also affects our world. In fact, most of the foods that are bad for us (think genetically modified products) also negatively impact our environment. By approaching our eating habits with intentionality, we benefit our own health and that of the world we live in.

Plant-based diet benefits. Arguments for a plant-based diet are compelling and backed by over 20 years of work by Robbins focused on the subject of conscious eating. Exposing the dangers in our factory farming system, Robbins makes a definitive case for solely plant-based eating. This timely read on healthy eating will enlighten those curious about plant-based diets and fortify the mindsets of the already converted.

Read The Food Revolution and discover:

• The negative effects of your current eating habits
• A powerful case for plant-based eating
• Wisdom from one of the most frequently cited books of the food-politics revolution

If you have read books such as We are the Weather, How Not to Die, 31-Day Food Revolution, or Fast Food Genocide, then The Food Revolution is a must read!

Did you know that gun violence is the #1 cause of death among America’s children and teens and that guns in the home are far more likely to be used in killing family members than intruders? 

Gun Violence 101, a unique illustrated book using original graphics and artwork, presents many shocking facts about gun violence and gun laws in America. 

Criminologist Thomas Gabor, coauthor of the acclaimed book American Carnage, joins forces with award-winning author and illustrator Violet Lemay in showing that many of America’s gun laws harm rather than protect us. Many Americans have been influenced by the gun lobby’s harmful campaigns designed to convince the public that guns in the home, gun carrying, and permissive laws will make the country safer. Instead, such policies have produced record numbers of gun deaths and mass shootings around the country. Gabor and Lemay present solutions to gun violence that have been shown to make people and communities safer. 

Other Surprising Facts About Gun Violence:

• Americans own 50 times more military-style weapons like the AR-15 today than in the 1990s Fatal road rage shootings have more than doubled in the last few years as more people carry guns.
• 6% of Americans own two-thirds of all the nation’s guns.

For a vast majority of girls in this country, there comes an age at which self-esteem, self-assurance, equilibrium, and confidence fly out the window. Maybe it's hormones, maybe it's culture, or maybe it's just called growing up. Whatever the cause, it's real.

Some girls turn, in their own fashion, to the same addictive solutions as their elders: compulsive behavior--either in the form of alcohol, drugs, food, or something equally destructive. Casey, a veteran of the "first great revival" of the recovery movement, brings the art of living one day at a time to young girls in Be Who You Want to Be.

"My intention in this book is similar to the intent in my other titles: I want to foster hope and willingness in young girls to believe they can make the changes needed so they feel like they belong and have purpose." From the book's opening note to parents (and other adults who care about young girls) through to the final word, the spirit of taking steps for themselves, no matter who they are or where they are in life, comes through in an accessible tone, providing girls the toolkits they need for handling life's ups and downs.

Join Ruth Crilly in this comic memoir as she teeters through the noughties and lifts the lid on her days as an international fashion model. Told with unparalleled wit and remarkable detail, this is a book for anyone who dreams big and aims high but never quite reaches their goal.

At twenty years old, five feet eight and with boobs that were 'inconveniently fulsome', Ruth was not quite young enough, tall enough or waif-like enough to ever hope for a meteoric rise to supermodel status. And yet her sheer optimism and questionable grasp on reality led her to abandon her law degree and begin a career with one of the biggest agencies in the world.

Follow Ruth through a rip-roaring, hilarious decade of not-quite-making-it as a supermodel. Fuelled by little more than cigarettes and the stress of her spiralling debt she criss-crosses the world in pursuit of fame and fortune. But how far is she willing to go for this wildly unrealistic dream?

Bridget Jones meets The Devil Wears Prada, How Not to Be a Supermodel is a time capsule of a book that dives into one of the world's most fascinating industries. Offering a glimpse into both the high glamour and juddering reality of a by-gone era, this comic memoir tackles the darkest of subjects with the very lightest touch and injects humour and a heart-warming honesty into a story that could have so easily ended a different way.
