Since its launch in 2006, Wiki Leaks has rapidly grown into the most powerful & influential whistleblowing organisation ever. Its status as a repository & publisher of leaked sensitive & confidential governmental, corporate, organisational or religious documents while preserving the anonymity & untraceability of its contributors, & the statements & behaviour of its leader Julian Assange have made Wiki Leaks both daily front page news & a topic of enormous controversy.

In an eye-opening account, Daniel Domscheit-Berg, who joined Wiki Leaks in its early days & became its spokesman, reveals never-disclosed details about the inner workings of the organisation that has struck fear into governments & businesses worldwide & prompted the Pentagon to convene a 120-man investigative task force. He also provides a remarkably up-close portrait of Julian Assange himself.

Under the pseudonym Daniel Schmitt, Domscheit-Berg was the effective No. 2 at Wiki Leaks & its most public face after Assange. In this book, he tells the backstories of leaks ranging from the Church of Scientology & the Afghanistan & Iraq War logs to Cablegate, & reveals the evolution, finances & inner tensions of the whistleblower organisation, beginning with his first meeting with Assange in December 2007. He also describes what led to his September 2010 withdrawal from Wiki Leaks, including his disenchantment with its lack of transparency, its abandonment of political neutrality, & Assange's increasing concentration of power.

What has been made public so far about Wiki Leaks is only a small fraction of the truth. With his insider knowledge, Domscheit-Berg is uniquely able to tell the full story.

If you are lucky enough to find your place, you should never actually live in it, never make it your home. & never live with the man you think you cannot live without.

Le Village is a small town at the southwestern-most tip of France. Here a young Englishwoman fell in love with France, the French & one Frenchman in particular.

In her seductive, lyrical & witty memoir Helen Stevenson writes about life in Le Village, not as an expat, but as someone adopted by her neighbours as one of their own. By Stefan, the Maoist tennis fanatic, who lives off his lover in solidarity with the unemployed; by Gigi, the chic Parisian who dresses her ex-lovers' girlfriends from the stock of her exquisite boutique; & by Luc, the crumpled cowboy painter & part-time dentist, who, overcoming an aversion to blondes, takes the Englishwoman up to his remote mas, shows her his paintings & teaches her to ride.

Describing the colour & light of the landscape with lyrical intensity, & savouring the languid & sexy flavour of the Mediterranean lifestyle, Helen Stevenson lays bare a romantic but potentially disastrous love affair with the man 'who seems like the only man alive to me, the one with the halo round his head in a crowd, if I should ever see him in a crowd'. INSTRUCTIONS FOR VISITORS may start as an objective guide for tenants arriving at her village house, but it ends as a very personal revelation of how difficult it can be to transplant oneself into someone else's country, someone else's culture, someone else's heart.
