4 New books, May 2016 Vol. 296 Domestic Violence In 2015, two women in England and Wales were killed every week as a result of domestic violence. However, it s not just women who suffer; 12% of men say that they have been a victim of domestic abuse since the age of 16. This book explores the many myths and facts that surround perceptions of domestic violence. It also looks at different types of abuse, worldwide statistics and the protection offered by the law. In the final chapter, it considers the prevention of domestic violence, including perpetrator programmes, refuges and helplines. ISBN: Replacing Vol. 224 Domestic and Relationship Abuse Vol. 297 Sexuality and Gender Did you know that one in two young people say they are not 100% heterosexual? With so many labels now used to define sexuality and gender identity, this book will help guide you in understanding sexuality and gender, plus other LGBTQ+ issues. Exploring terms from asexuality and non-binary to transgender and intersex, this book also discusses topics such as gender dysphoria, mental health and LGBT representation in the media, as well as challenging homophobic language, transgender bathroom rights and legal equality for all. ISBN: Replacing Vol. 225 LGBT Equality Vol. 298 Business and Trade The landscape of business and trade in the UK is constantly changing. This book explores current statistics, opportunities for small businesses and the outlook for graduates who wish to become self-employed. It also looks at business education, asking whether it is effective and relevant enough in the current economic climate. New ventures such as crowd funding are also considered, alongside the benefits of family-run businesses. And, finally, the second chapter looks at corporate responsibility from tax scandals to ethics in the workplace. ISBN: Replacing Vol.227 Ethics in Business 4 Vol. 299 The Internet of Things The Internet is not just the Internet anymore. Products ranging from smartwatches and TVs to cars and fridges all use the Internet to connect our daily lives. This book explores the rise of the Internet of things, from the negative consequences of online technology to positive innovations. Articles include debate over screen-time for young children, online privacy and access to broadband. They also examine our digital future, looking at advancements in robot law and social applications. ISBN: Replacing Vol. 230 Evolution of the Internet Vol. 300 Human Rights In 2015, at least 122 countries tortured or ill-treated people worldwide. Despite our ever-socially-evolving world, human rights violations remain consistently abhorrent. This book features articles from organisations such as Liberty, Girls Not Brides and Amnesty International, alongside many others exploring issues such as child marriage, torture and FGM. It also looks at human rights law in the UK, internationally and within Europe. This includes examination of the Human Rights Act, the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, anti-slavery laws and the European Convention on Human Rights. ISBN: Replacing Vol.229 Protecting Human Rights Vol. 301 Drugs According to statistics, one in 12 adults aged 16 to 59 have taken illicit drugs in the last year. This is equal to 2.8 million people. However, sources claim that trends among young people show a decline in risky behaviours. This book explores the different types and effects of illegal drugs. It also looks at the dangers of legal highs, current statistics and steroid use. The second chapter examines UK drugs laws, and the third chapter goes further still to look at what it really means to have an addiction and how to get help. ISBN: Replacing Vol.228 Illegal Drug Use
