An interesting selection of articles published in the Guardian over the previous 11 months.

This is only the third ‘Bedside Guardian’ I’ve read. It’s a great distillation of some of the best of the paper’s reporting from the last 12 months (although it doesn’t cover a calendar year it goes from autumn 2017 to the end of the summer this year to allow it to be bought as a present for Christmas).
Every year a different journalist edits the book, this time it’s Lisa Allardice. It’s bookended by a couple of editorials about the future of journalism & reporting in times of crisis.
Clearly Brexit & Trump loom large but it was a report on climate change - and the increased instances of cities hitting temperatures of 40°C (with estimates that some places could even hit 50°) - which scared the Bejayus out of me.
I think we can safely safe that reading this book will be an annual tradition for me now.

Excellent, uplifting, depressing, thought-provoking articles from the very best of the Guardian 2018.
