Trudi Penislow is a seriously feisty (and precocious) nine-year-old Cornish girl on a mission to save the world from climate catastrophe. Though her dad’s a former Prime Minister she reckons she’s got the better handle on political activism.

By taking an interdisciplinary approach, this book explores the process of managing relations across cultures. With research-based examples and student friendly features, it provides a groundbreaking analytic framework for understanding intercultural relations, and offers important new insights for researchers, students and practitioners.

So what Trudi's only just turned five? Somehow or other she always manages to get close to the action. Too close for her own good in this story, as she ends up getting kidnapped not once but twice. Happily, because she's as irresistible as she is resourceful, she either escapes from or wins round her captors.

The book critiques humanist philosophy, arguing that it leads to moral relativism where good and evil are subjective opinions. It suggests that this perspective undermines accountability, as individuals, including children and criminals, are viewed as entitled to their beliefs without facing punishment. Consequently, it posits that positive human qualities are diminished, allowing harmful behavior to thrive and disrupting societal peace. The exploration raises questions about morality, responsibility, and the consequences of a belief system that prioritizes individual entitlement over communal ethics.

From humble beginnings in Cornwall, Percy Penislow barely makes it to Number 10. With enemiesaplenty and a mistaken sexual and social identity, Percy embarks on a perilous journey, but will hesurvive it?
