Medina Lasansky have curated a collection of thirty-seven fascinating essays, supplemented by a rich trove of photo illustrations, that unpack these questions with breadth and care.Although board games are often recreational objects, their mythologies and infrastructure do not exist in a vacuum—rather, they echo and reproduce preva

Chelsea Green Publishing Co Field, Fork, Fashion: Bullock 374 and a
Book SynopsisFrom one of the Vogue Business 100 Innovators List - 2023 ‘[T]his wonderful project and book, executed with great charm and creativity, is an important message.’ Anya Hindmarch In this personal investigation into ethical and traceable leather, fashion designer Alice Robinson begins a ground-breaking journey into the origin story of leather and its connection to food and farming. As a fashion student, Alice started to question the material she worked with. Leather is universally acknowledged as a luxury material, from which desirable bags, shoes and clothing are made. But how much do we know about where it comes from? Alice’s questions led back to her childhood home in rural Shropshire, where she decided to buy Bullock 374 and follow its journey from a local farm to the abattoir, then to the butchery and finally to the tannery. The journey culminates with Alice’s own design practice as she creates a collection based on this single hide. In doing so, Alice would begin to see the bigger picture – and connect farm, food and fashion for the first time to understand the true meaning of provenance, value and beauty.Trade Review‘The idea that fashion is grown and comes from a farm always surprises people as we are so disconnected from where the things we wear come from. So, this wonderful project and book, executed with great charm and creativity, is an important message.’ Anya Hindmarch‘Alice has conjured a fire inside my belly with her book. I'm pulling out and questioning every garment in my wardrobe, asking myself why it's not made from natural fibres. Her words, her methods and her ideology all have meaning and spirit threaded through them so deeply you can't stop yourself being drawn into her world. The fashion industry better watch out, they have a hurricane coming their way.’ Zoë Colville, farmer and author of The Chief Shepherdess ‘Alice’s dedication to her art takes her to realms where few artists would go; seeing an animal through its life, building relationships with it, before butchering it and turning each part into something of extraordinary value. At times grotesque, we’re nevertheless taken on a journey where it transcends to a thing of pure beauty. We all need to look through her eyes in order to understand what it takes to find a respectable, renewable and sustainable future. ’ Gizzi Erskine, chef, food writer and author of Restore‘Sometimes the best innovation is about looking back to move forward. Alice’s work epitomises this concept: the way that she unravels past processes in order to understand how things were made before industrialisation is truly an exploration of what fashion could become, just as much as what fashion was. Fashion should not anymore be just about products, we have too many products and we have lost sight as to how they are made and by whom. Fashion should be about its processes just as much. We should be able to choose what we wear not just because of what it looks like, but because of what it went through. We should choose to wear things of minimum environmental impact and maximum storytelling potential. Fashion should be an exploration of our soil, nature, instincts and capabilities. Alice’s work is incredibly original because it takes into account all of the above, from both a creative design and a philosophical perspective.’ Orsola de Castro, co-founder of Fashion Revolution and author of Loved Clothes Last‘I consider it an absolute privilege to have first met Alice Robinson a few weeks after she caused a storm feeding the fashion world her sheep. Meeting Malcolm the farmer was the catalyst that such a genuine and driven person needed to connect farming and fashion in a way that can make both industries proud. I’m lucky to count some of the country's most innovative chefs and farmers as friends. I can honestly say Alice will make the most impact with this illustrious bunch. Rebooting the UK leather supply chain is actually a near-impossible task. But by the last page you will, like me, think she just might do it.’ Matt Chatfield, farmer and founder of The Cornwall Project

The School of Life Press The Family Game: laugh and reconnect with those
Book SynopsisThe idea of family lies close to the meaning of life, but in practice, families do not always come together, or chat about what matters, or laugh as much or as often as they should.

The Family Game is the solution; this is a game expressly designed to help family gatherings live up to our highest hopes. It consists of a host of questions (chosen randomly with a dice) that kick-start the best sorts of conversations: ones in which we reconnect, say things we always meant to, laugh warmly together – and remember why family counts. The cards cover 5 categories: Gentle Teasing - What would the movie of your family be called? Gratitude - To whom have you been a bit too moody? Self - How would you like to evolve? Memories - What was your favourite time of day when you were little? Regrets - If you could be forgiven for something, what would it be?
