Cuckooland (Paperback)
Cuckooland (Paperback)
Onderzoeksjournalist Tom Burgis geeft in Cuckooland een schokkende inkijk in een wereld van corruptie, machtswellust, fake news en manipulatie. Van Kathmandu tot het Kremlin en van Zwitserse banken tot Buckingham Palace: overal ter wereld worden we gemanipuleerd, vaak zonder dat we het doorhebben. Journalist Tom Burgis legt een wereld bloot waarin de machtige welgestelden alles kopen, inclusief de waarheid en het nieuws… Drie jaar lang onderzocht hij een spoor dat hem dieper en dieper in Cuckooland zoog: de plek waar een kleine groep zeer rijken bepaalt welke verhalen er worden verteld over oorlog, geld en macht , en - nog belangrijker - wat er niet wordt verteld. Tijdens zijn research jaagde Burgis op oligarchen, sprak hij met geheime bronnen en traceerde hij enorme sommen geld die heen en weer geschoven werden tussen multinationals, ex-Sovjet-dictaturen en de heersende elite van het Westen. Cuckooland biedt een schokkende inkijk in een wereld van corruptie, machtswellust en

Reisverhaal - Natuurgids Wild about Dorset | Brian Jackman
Reisverhaal - Natuurgids Wild about Dorset | Brian Jackman
Wild About Dorset is a new collection of nature writing from award-winning journalist and author Brian Jackman. Drawing on a decade's worth of monthly columns in his local community magazine, Jackman paints a 'year in the life' of wildlife and wild places in West Dorset's Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), where he has lived for fifty years. A rumpled, tumbling world of green-gold hills, bordered by the Jurassic Coast's crumbling cliffs and melting away inland somewhere north of Beaminster, few corners of England are so rich in wildlife or so intensely rural. Arranged month-by-month, this book celebrates the only place in the British Isles that reminds Jackman of the lost countryside of his youth. Complementing Jackman's love letter are thirteen full-page color illustrations by celebrated nature artist Carry Akroyd, an award-winning member of the Society of Wildlife Artists. This is a book about nature - an account of natural history observations. Start the year by joining Jac…

Productomschrijving

The Economist Book of the Year en The Washington Post Notable Book of the Year!   De bekroonde onderzoeksjournalist Tom Burgis onthult in Kleptopia een angstaanjagend wereldwijd web van financiële criminaliteit. Hij volgt het geld dat de wereldeconomie overspoelt, dictators aanmoedigt en democratieën vergiftigt: van het Kremlin tot Beijing, en van het Midden-Oosten tot het Witte Huis. Burgis komt tot een sinistere conclusie: de criminelen verenigen zich. Door de jaren heen komt er soms een glimp van deze schimmige wereld naar boven: een lichaam in een uitgebrande Audi, arbeiders doorzeefd met kogels in de Kazachse woestijn, een vervalste verkiezing in Zimbabwe… Kleptopia biedt een schokkende inkijk in een wereld van corruptie, belastingontduiking, spionage, schimmige tussenfiguren en vooral machtswellust.
