    Edition date: 2007

    Summary: Stuart just wanted his father to love him, but he was made to believe he was too naughty to be loved. Finally David Howarth was sent to prison for abusing Stuart's young sisters. Nobody knew the truth about Stuart's abuse until one fateful day when his father tried it again and Stuart fought back in the only way he knew how. Stuart Howarth spent the first thirty years of his life in mental and physical hell. After years of emotional torment and despair, at the age of 32 Stuart felt an overwhelming urge to see his father (who he now knows was actually his stepfather), then living in Wales. Seeking reconciliation, Stuart was only to be met by the same old abusive man. The rage, pain and confusion boiled over in Stuart and he fought back, killing his stepfather. When Stuart's story came to light in the courtroom, it was so terrible that he received the minimum possible sentence for his crime and only served thirteen months in Strangeways prison in Manchester. But while in prison, the cruel system compounded the crimes of his evil abuser, and he suffered at the hands of the prison guards. What happened to him during those months led to him suing the Home Office and Strangeways on his release and winning his case. This is the story of a sweet-natured boy who grew into a brave young man and refused to allow himself to be a victim any longer.

    Pages: 206 inc index
    ISBN: 0-7493-1501-6

    Publisher: Cedar

    Edition date: 1994

    Summary: Based on the belief that only when a child is convinced that its parents are on its side can it develop true self-esteem and develop into a self-confident, self-reliant and happy person, this book offers parents straightforward advice. It does not explain how or when to potty-train or move a child from a cot to a bed, but uses words such as praise, play, time, touch and talk, to advise both new and experienced parents about what helps children to develop and what blocks progress. The book's two core messages are: believe in yourself; and what you do is less important than how you do it.

    Publisher:  Open Secret Puiblishing

    Edition date: 2000

    Summary: 'Throughout my early life I felt that there was another possibility which, once realised, would transform all and everything. One day that possibility became a reality, and it was simple and ordinary, magnificent and revolutionary. It is the open secret that reveals itself in every part of our lives. But realisation does not emerge through our attempts to change our lives, it comes as a direct rediscovery of who it is that lives. "The Open Secret" is a singular and radical work which speaks of the fundamental liberation that is absolutely beyond effort, path, process or belief.'

    Summary: Do you think you have enough money? Do you feel really fulfilled by your career? Very few people can answer yes to both questions. Some of us can say yes to one or the other. But the majority of people would actually say no to both. So what is it that is stopping you achieving your full financial & career potential? Is it possible that taking steps to be fulfilled can actually be the same steps you need to take to get control of your financial situation (and vice versa). It runs completely contrary to what we've been led to believe - you can have lots of cash or a fulfilling job, but you can't have both. Unless you are one of those annoyingly rare people who turn their hobby into their job (and we've all read enough about those). Make Money, Be Happy shows that a career is just one income stream, and that many others exist. It offers the reader a different life perspective, one that integrates career ambition with greater personal financial control. It blasts financial fear and stupidity and attempts to replace it with knowledge and the desire for personal financial action (in order to do the things you love).The book provides lots of examples and basic finance tools and techni The author digs so the reader doesn't have to.

    Summary: Pema Chodron reveals the vast potential for happiness, wisdom and courage even in the most painful circumstances. Pema Chodron teaches that there is a fundamental opportunity for happiness right within our reach, yet we usually miss it -- ironically, while we are caught up in attempt to escape pain and suffering. This accessible guide to compassionate living shows us how we can use painful emotions to cultivate wisdom, compassion and courage, ways of communication that lead to openness and true intimacy with others, practices for reversing our negative habitual patterns, methods for working with chaotic situations and ways to cultivate compassionate, energetic social action Recently profiled in Oprah's O magazine, Pema Chodron is a spiritual teacher for anyone -- whether they have a spiritual path or not. Her heartfelt advice and wisdom (developed in her 20 years of practice as a Tibetan Buddhist nun as well as her years previously as a normal 'housewife and mother') give her a wide appeal. This advice strikes just the right note, offering us comfort and challenging us to live deeply and contribute to creating a more loving world.

    Edition date: 1995

    Summary: In this extraordinary, life-affirming book, Charles Handy reaches for a philosophy beyond the impersonal mechanics of business organizations, and beyond material choices. He presents a powerful alternative vision, where life and work are regrounded in a natural sense of continuity, connection and purposeful direction. ‘The empty raincoat is to me, the symbol of our most pressing paradox. If economic progress means that we become anonymous cogs in some great machine, then progress is an empty promise. The challenge must be to show how paradox can be managed.’

    Publisher: Rider

    Edition date: 1998

    Summary: An examination of the "forbidden" stories of the Bible, which are also retold in contemporary English alongside the original text. They are among the most startling and explicit stories in Western literature, concerned as they are with seduction and rape, voyeurism and exhibitionism, intermarriage and illegitimacy, assassination and murder. In the past, these tales have been censored, suppressed or mistranslated on political or moral grounds, or even banned outright by conventional religious authorities due to their erotic, violent or mysterious content. The author goes on to reveal how each story found its way into the Bible, why it was suppressed in the first place, and points out the significance of surrounding rituals and customs.

    Edition date: 1973

    Summary: Bennett was one of the few people able to speak of Gurdjieff’s background, teachings, and methods in relation to the traditions of Central Asia. Books about Gurdjieff and his ideas have proliferated in the West, but it is this slim collection of lectures by J. G. Bennett which provides us with the important source material about Gurdjieff’s ideas. Providing a vivid picture of Gurdjieff’s boyhood and childhood turmoil, Bennett describes the beginning of the master’s search. He speaks of the clashes between the Greeks, Armenians, Turks, and Assyrians, who provided the histroical background for Gurdjieff’s search for the meaning of human life on Earth. Bennett tells us of the Sufis of Central Asia, discussing the indications of secret brotherhood and hidden ‘power-houses’ that that were given to him by his teacher. The ancient doctrines of Zoroaster are discussed, for they undoubtedly added to the formation of Gurdjieff’ philosophy. Emphasis is placed on Gurdjieff’s power and insight, as well as on the essential practicality of teachings. The final enigma remains: Was the Work to continue? Was it to stop at Gurdjieff"s death?

    Publisher: Pocket Books

    Edition date: 2005

    Summary: Sarah Pat O'Brien's father walks out of her life when she is seven years old. All that remain are dreams of where he might be and when he will return to rescue the family from the poverty, disease and discrimination they suffer. But he doesn't come back; and with the promise of a better life, they leave Dublin for England, like so many in the 1950s. Years on, when Sarah Pat has children of her own, her shadowy memories drive her to trace her father. A long and painful search reveals he was a soldier, a boxer, a poet - and a bigamist. New life, new wife, new son. Who was the real Patrick O'Brien: philanderer, liar, bully; or loving, sophisticated, indulgent father? Looking through the eyes of a child bewildered and betrayed, Sarah Pat O'Brien tells the story of her quest for her father - and for herself. Beautifully written with searing honesty and lyrical humour, "Rooms Of Dust" is an exceptional memoir about forging one's own identity from the heartache of the past.

    Publisher: Sphere

    Edition date: 2007

    Summary: The story of Dave Pelzer is a legend of our times: the shattering tale of the child called 'It' who was forced to live in the basement. His mother was the perpetrator of the horror, but she had a willing accomplice. It was Dave's brother Richard - the author of this book. When Dave was twelve the police removed him from the household, but the cycle of abuse continued. Mrs Pelzer had a new target for her crazed, alcoholic wrath. The hunter became the hunted - at the age of nine. This is his story. Recounting the warped dynamics of a family riven by abuse, he reveals his guilt at being the abuser, his scarring at being abused, the complete lack of questioning within the family about what was happening - and even the twisted respect the boys had for their mother. Richard became the target of his mother's artillery of insanity, the victim of savage beatings leading to hospitalization, the boy denied clean clothes, the one who 'deserved' whole bottles of hot Tabasco sauce poured down his throat.

    Summary: People journey to Greece for the ruins, Turkey for the Hagia Sophia, and Russia for St. Peter's, but Alexia Brue travels with a different itinerary: to visit the baths. What starts off as an innocent vacation quickly becomes an obsession, as the author ventures to Turkey, Greece, Russia, Finland, and Japan to sample the range of bathing traditions the world has to offer. Caught up in the tide of travel and exploration and crossing paths with fellow travellers along the way, Alexia drifts further and further away from the life she left behind in New York City. Hoping to find a thriving local bath scene, she dips into hamams, banyas, saunas, and onsen, finding both disappointment and bliss. At once deeply personal and highly informative, full of intimacies, discoveries, and unexpected twists, "Cathedrals of the Flesh" is the candid and playful account of one woman's determination to follow her passion, ultimately inspiring readers to do the same.

    Summary: The rewards of perfection are obvious - success, financial security, the respect of family, friends and colleagues. But perfectionism comes at a price as perfectionists tend toward uncertainty, compulsive worrying, workaholism, emotional guardedness, stubborness, and the need to be above criticism. Setting excessively high standards only leads to disappointment, and rigidity often prevents us from enjoying life and forming healthy relationships. This book addresses the often painful and lonely world of those who are proud to call themselves perfectionists. It offers insights and practical ways of moving away from obsession towards a more relaxed and happier life.

However, with the growth of pharmaceutical medicines, many such remedies have been dismissed as folklore. Yet traditional remedies have continued to demonstrate their efficacy, and research into the pharmacological properties of everyday foods and herbs shows that they can be a powerful tool in promoting health. Sarah Merson presents 100 tried-and-tested remedies which offer cures for common ailments and can also help to prevent ill health in the first place - proving that it's well worth rediscovering our roots.

The former professional footballer, TV presenter and Green politician found himself on a wondrous journey of discovery. Guided by master souls from other dimensions, he went to Canada, the United States and all over Britain, meeting sensitives and helping to balance the disturbed earth’s energy system. The great mysteries which for centuries have baffled scientists, doctors and historians were unravelled for David Icke. Why are we here? What is the truth about God and Jesus? What happens to us when we die? What are crop circles and who makes them? The answers to all these questions and many more are revealed in ‘Truth Vibrations’. More significantly, David Icke has learned what is to befall humanity in the 1990s and what steps we can take to reduce the physical and emotional impact of the enormous changes that are about to confront our planet and all life upon it. Nothing and no one will be the same again. David Icke’s extraordinary story and the message that ‘Truth Vibrations’ brings to every man, woman and child is of supreme importance to the future of planet Earth.

    Edition date: 1999

    Summary: This is a narrative recounting a spiritual voyage taking the author around the world in a quest for the divine. A trail of chance, synchronicity, divine providence and the occasional railway and airline schedule, leads Brown from the extraordinary figure of the 19th-century occult adventuress Madame Blavatsky, via the philosopher Krishnamurti, to the genial Scottish clairvoyant who claims that the Christ of the age is alive and well and living in London. In India, he encounters the miracle-working Sai Baba, and discusses reincarnation with the world's most revered spiritual figure, the Dalai Lama. In Germany, he joins the pilgrims who kneel at the feet of the young Indian Woman, Mother Meera, believing she is divine. In a tiny backwoods church in Tennessee, he examines the "Crosses of Light" which are held as evidence of Christ's imminent return to Earth. Mick Brown is the author of "Richard Branson, The Inside Story" and "American Heartbeat: Travels from Woodstock to San Jose by Song Title".

    Edition date: 2001

    Summary: 'With passion and commitment thousands of "small" people built Eden as a symbol of hope in action...We may all have feet of clay, but that shouldn't stop us trying to make a difference. Wouldn't we all rather look back and say, "I'm glad I did," rather than "I wish I had"? Some might smile at the naivety of such ambition, believing it to be impossible. We say, "Demand the impossible".' So said Tim Smit and thus was the impossible delivered: a living theatre of plants and people and their interdependence, housed in a disused china clay pit and featuring the world's largest greenhouses. Well over five million visitors have since made their way to Eden, drawn by the astonishing, visionary ambition of its founders. This is Tim's story of how it all came about: the Project's genesis in the Lost Gardens of Heligan, its design and construction against all the odds, its supremely talented team of larger-than-life personalities. Above all, how the energy that brought the vision to life is being applied to possible futures. It is a vision for all to share.

    Publisher: Global Communications

    Edition date: 1999

    Summary: Exposes Project Paper Clip and the underground UFO bases of Hitler's elite scientific corps. Elements of the CIA and the Secret Government have imitated real alien abductions to convince the public of interplanetary invasion so new world order can rule the globe unchallenged. Written by well-known UFO and conspiracy investigator, Tim Swartz, who is also author of the cult best-seller: The Lost Journals of Nikola Tesla. Because of the foreseeable threat of the spread of communism at the end of World War 2, secret alliances were formed between certain elements in US intelligence with German agents who slowly infiltrated the US military, the government and large corporations. Nearly 800 scientists were granted US citizenship under the code name Project Paper Clip. At several locations (including what has since become known as Area 51), German scientists have been working on a radically different technology that to most Americans would seem like something out of science fiction - or from another world! In addition to 'fancy flying machines', a fraction of the US intelligence community has worked with these relocated Nazi scientists on brain washing techniques as well as chemical and biological warfare in order to control the American population should the need arise. The Secret Government (aka New World Order) plans total control and is using the manipulation of the world's religions, genetic engineering, drugs and control of the media to accomplish their sinister deeds. And while there are good and bad aliens coming to earth, the secret government would like to blame as much as possible on ETs to keep the unsuspecting public off their trail. If necessary they will use the idea of an 'alien threat' to bring about 'world unity' under their domination. Here the author reveals, that the real power behind the secret government is located in an underground base in the Antarctic which has been dubbed the 'Last Nazi Battalion'. Many UFO abductees are brought there and experimented upon. The New World Order has developed psychosurgery, implants and ESP to create the use of 'screen memory' cover stories.

She ran after a lamb and found herself travelling right across Europe to Palestine, and back through 2000 years to meet the Holy Family in Bethlehem. There she met angels, shepherds, wise men and other biblical characters who joined her on her pilgrimage; and she heard of many of the things that happened in the world in the last 2000 years. In present-day Norway, a boy acquires a strange old Advent calendar. Hidden in each of the windows is a tiny piece of paper. Little by little these pieces unfold the girl's story and as we learn what happened to her, another story is revealed - that of the strange old man who made the calender.

Adding to such accounts as George Ritchie's "Return from Tomorrow" and Dr Raymond A. Moody's "Life After Life", Betty Eadie's experience offers an astonishing proof of a life after physical death. She saw more, perhaps, than any other person has seen before, and she came back with an almost photographic view. She was given a message to share with others that has filled many with hope and renewed desire to love. This book recounts the people she met, the truths she learned and the magnificent realities of the spirit world.

    Publisher: Dell

    Edition date: 1995

    Summary: Richard Bach made a promise, fifty years ago, to come back through time and teach himself everything he had learned from living. The pledge was forgotten until the day when, midair in his paraglider, Richard met Dickie Bach, age nine, who expected the promise to be kept. In this intimate adventure of mind and heart, Richard sets out to show Dickie the things that matter, and finds his teaching doesn’t go as planned. Here is a book spun from delight and disaster, and from surprising notions about old questions: Who are we? What do we want to do with our lives, and why aren’t we doing it? Must we be the victim of circumstance instead of its master? How do we learn to love? Throughout, Leslie Parrish-Bach shares the journey, offering her counterpoint to some of Richard’s more challenging beliefs. This is a journal of terror and triumph, of forgotten childhood and its keys to grown-up mysteries. Running from Safety entertains, exhilarates, inspires; a gift to those convinced that angels can meet us in the midst of storms to remind us why we’ve chosen to live.

No one guessed that as soon as he was off air, he would retreat to his bed, sometimes suicidal thoughts, and barely able to function as a husband and father of three small children. In this candid and courageous account, he describes the nightmare he and his family lived through for so long. He looks back to his childhood where he believes his low self-esteem took root, and traces a pattern common to many. As soon as he was diagnosed, Gareth began a determined fight back to health. Now fully recovered and no longer on anti-depressants, he has emerged with a deep understanding of how depression takes hold - and how to loosen its grasp. Here he shares his insight, practical knowledge, and convictions in a mission to spread hope to all those affected by it.

    Summary: "Integral Yoga" -- now available in paperback for the first time -- represents developments in the yoga tradition of India. It is the crowning fullfilment of the various yoga systems which evolved in India over the centuries. Originated by the great sage of modern India, Sri AuroBuy-it-Now!do, integral yoga is presented in this volume by Haridas Chaudhuri in the context of contemporary Western thinking. It expounds the concept of harmonious and creative living on the basis of fruitful conciliation of the self-perfecting mysticism of the East and the rationalistic humanism of the modern West. It gives a dynamic form, an evolutionary perspective and a creative impetus to the ancient mystic idea of union with the eternal.

    Summary: Akio Morita, Chairman of Sony, has been quoted as saying:`...[the West] does not understand what management is about. In Japan a manager's role is very simple; it is to develop the skills of his staff so that they can find better ways of satisfying the customers.' This book aims to give the West a more balanced and realistic understanding of the key reasons for Japan's success. It will be of value to those intending to do business with Japanese companies, to those wishing to compete, or even just survive against the nation which is the world's most successful economic power. Written in plain and accessible language, the lessons for the West are spelled out clearly: education, management concerned with developing people's potential, and relevant workplace training are the `secrets' of Japanese success. This book is intended for business people, industrialists, educationalists, training specialists, scientists, general reader interested in Japan and Japanese economic and technological success.

    Edition date: 1984

    Summary: Books on power - the ability ofindividuals or groups to win the submission of others to their purpose -have an established pattern; they deal with economic power, political power, militarypower, religious power and the like. This usage, it is here held, conceals as much as it reveals. This book deals with the deeper and enduring components of power; thus its title, The Anatomy of Power. The author begins with the three ways by which all power is enforced - by the threat and reality of punishment of power; by compensation or compensatory power; by persuasion, appeal to belief, or conditioned power. Then he takes up the sources of power -its origins in personality, in property andin organisation. Organisation and the closely associated exercise of conditioned power receive particular attention; they are the most important modern manifestation of power.The essentials established, the book proceeds to the dynamics of power, tohow the sources of power and the instruments of its enforcement have altered in importance, character and comBuy-it-Now!ation over time. It takes up their feudal form; the changes with earlycapitalism, with high capitalism; the exercise of power in the highly organised corporate economy, in the modern state and in its military establishment. It examines, with much else, the illusion of power - the tendency of politicians, journalists and perhaps professors to imagine they have power when they have not.

The story of his education and adjustment to the western world is explored, his later denial of his Messianic role and his emergence as a world teacher who attracted the attention of the United Nations and the most eminent in different fields such as Nehru, Dalai Lama, Bernard Shaw, Aldous Huxley, Mrs Gandhi, Iris Murdoch, David Bohm and Bernard Levin.

    Summary: This extraordinary collection of rejection letters sent by publishers to writers - many delivered to now famous authors of books considered classics - is sure to entertain and delight readers and give more than a little comfort to struggling authors. Among the gems of editorial misjudgement included in the book are: 'You are welcome to Le Carre - he hasn't got any future.' (The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, 1963); 'It is impossible to sell animal stories...' (Animal Farm, George Orwell, 1945); and 'We are not interested in science fiction which deals with negative utopias.' (Carrie, Stephen King, early 1970s). In the company of such hallowed names as Thomas Wolfe, Gertrude Stein, Henry James, Joseph Heller and many others, Rotten Rejections makes encouraging reading for all would-be authors.

    Summary: Tells a tale of a child growing up with an anorexic mother. A true story of shattered childhoods... Following her escape from Nazi Germany and the loss of her family Judith searches for unconditional love and acceptance. In a bleak boarding house she meets her future husband – another Jewish refugee who cares for her when she is ill.Tragically she associates illness with love and a pattern is set. Judith’s behaviour eventually spirals into anorexia – a disease little known or understood in 1950’s Britain. While she starves herself, Judith forces Ruth, her daughter, to eat. She makes elaborate meals and watches her consume them. She gives her a pint of custard before bed each night. As the disease progresses roles are reversed. Ruth must care for her mother and loses any hope of a normal childhood. The generation gap is tragically bridged by loss and extreme self-loathing, in this moving true story of a family’s fight to survive.

    Edition date: 2005

    Summary: "I promised that I would one day write a book and tell the world about the home for unmarried mothers. I have at last kept my promise." In Ireland, 1951, the young June Goulding took up a position as midwife in a home for unmarried mothers run by the Sacred Heart nuns. What she witnessed there was to haunt her for the next fifty years. It was a place of secrets, lies and cruelty. A place where women picked grass by hand and tarred roads whilst heavily pregnant. Where they were denied any contact with the outside world; denied basic medical treatment and abused for their 'sins'; where, after the birth, they were forced into hard labour in the convent for three years. But worst of all was that the young women were expected to raise their babies during these three years so that they could then be sold - given up for adoption in exchange for a donation to the nuns. Shocked by the nuns' inhumane treatment of the frightened young women, June risked her job to bring some light into their dark lives. June's memoir tells the story of twelve women's experiences in this home and of the hardships they endured, but also the kindness she offered them, and the hope she was able to bring.

    Summary: Fran Abrams was commissioned by the Guardian to work as a night cleaner at the Savoy - living on (or as it turned out - below) the minimum wage. A short version of that experience appeared in the paper in January 2002. For Profile, she spent a month living on (in fact below) the minimum wage in South Yorkshire working in a pickle factory and then another month in Scotland working as a care assistant. In the tradition of George Orwell's Down & Out in London & Paris, this book shows what it is like to try to live on ?4.10 an hour. Where can you live? What can you afford to eat? Or do in the evening? What are the jobs - and the workmates and bosses like? This book, in entertaining prose, sympathetic portraits and a telling eye for detail reveals all - including the extraordinary differences across the length of Britain.

    Summary: Study of origins of prehistoric megaliths. Like a detective novel, the book first takes the reader on a hunt for clues. It visits Egypt and Mesopatamia where it introduces him to the secrets of the priesthoods and probes into their ancient wisdom. It propounds radical views of the attitutdes of pre-Christian priests towards nature, man and god and of the places of magic and symbolism in their societies. It offers a new interpretation of the ambivalent form of the Sphinx and of the legend of its famous riddle.

    Summary: Every week the equivalent of one jumbo jet-full of people dies from heart disease. By the age of 65, one man out of every five will have suffered a heart attack - which could, in most cases, have been prevented simply by following a low-cholesterol diet. This health guide contains a natural diet designed to reduce cholesterol levels by up to 40%. Cox and Brusseau explain the facts about cholesterol and its effects on health, and provide a six-week diet centred around ten complete day menus, each using inexpensive, easy-to-obtain foodstuffs. The good news is that it's never too late to start a diet like this, and even those who have already suffered coronary disease, the results can be dramatic and life-enhancing. Other books by Peter Cox include "Why You Don't Need Meat", "Overcoming Rheumatism and Arthritis Naturally", "The Healthy Heart", "The Quick Cholesterol and Fat Counter", "Linda McCartney's Home Cooking" and "Superliving".

    Summary: From a childhood of gothic proportions in a vicarage on the Welsh borders, through her adolescence, leaving herself teetering on the brink of the 1960s, Lorna Sage brings to life a vanished time and place, and illuminates the lives of three generations of women. Lorna Sage's memoir of childhood and adolescence brings to life her eccentric family and somewhat bizarre upbringing in the small town of Hanmer, on the border between Wales and Shropshire. The period as well as the place is evoked with crystal clarity: from the 1940s, dominated for Lorna by her dissolute but charismatic vicar grandfather, through the 1950s, where the invention of fish fingers revolutionised the lives of housewives like Lorna's mother, to the brink of the 1960s, where the community was shocked by Lorna's pregnancy at 16, an event which her grandmother blamed on "the fiendish invention of sex".

    Edition date: 2005

    Summary: Not Married, Not Bothered is a refreshing and hilarious celebration of women -- and of a woman's right to joyfully celebrate whichever lifestyle she chooses, at whatever age she is. Riley Gordon would not go as far as her best friend, Magda, who has decided to have the full wedding ceremony and celebrations. So far, so traditional. But in Magda's case, the lucky person she will be saying I do to is herself. It is Magda's statement for single women everywhere. This is Riley's call to arms, her challenge to celebrate singleness, and to re-establish that much maligned, splendid word: spinster. The life of Riley is an excellent one. She has no issues, no life crises. She is celebrating her life. Her mother is not so sure. Her marriage to Riley's father may have been a mistake, but as a merry widow, at least she is allowed lovers. Her sister, happily married with two children, is certain that married life is the right choice. Riley's extensive relations, including those in the more successful branch of the family, feel free to give their opinions, frequently and unasked. Her various friends, straight and gay, are delighted to have such available and lively companionship. And her lovers, all ex at present, simply wonder when they might be able to weight the balance from freedom towards themselves. Carol Clewlow, author of A Woman's Guide to Adultery, has written a wonderfully refreshing, witty novel, her conversational tone perfectly suited to the book. The views on marriage, on lifestyles, on age, on our attitudes are lively, unusual and stimulating. Riley is a character all of us would like to have in our lives.

    Summary: When Dr William Macbeth poisoned two of his sons in 1927, his wife and sister hid the murders in the intensely private realm of family secrets. Like the famous poisoner Dr Crippen, Macbeth behaved as if he were immune to consequences; unlike Crippen, he avoided detection and punishment. Or did he? As time passed, the story of Dr William Macbeth, well-dressed poisoner, haunted and divided his descendants. Macbeth's granddaughter Gail Bell, who grew up with the story, spent ten years reading the literature of poisoning in order to understand Macbeth's life. A chemist herself, she listened for echoes in the great cases of the 19th and 20th centuries, in myths, fiction and poison lore. This intricate story, with a moving twist at the end, is a book about family guilt and secrets, and also an exploration of the nature of death itself - as Bell turns to her grandfather's poisonous predecessors, from Cleopatra, Madame Bovary and Napoleon, as well as looking at Harold Shipman.

    Summary: William Woodruff had the sort of childhood satirised in the famous Monty Python Yorkshireman sketch. The son of a weaver, he was born on a pallet of straw at the back of the mill and two days later his mother was back at work. Life was extrememly tough for the family in 1920's Blackburn - a treat was sheep's head or cow-heel soup - and got worse when his father lost his job when the cotton industry started its terminal decline. Woodruff had to find his childhood fun in the little free time he had available between his delivery job and school, but he never writes self-pityingly, leaving the reader to shed the tears on his behalf. At ten his mother takes him on his one and only holiday - to Blackpool. He never wonders where they get the money to do so, only where she disappears to with strange men in the afternoons, before taking him to the funfair, pockets jingling an hour or two later. His book features a cast of colourful minor characters, from an unfrocked vicar to William's indomitable grandmother, Bridget, and all against the strongly rendered social backdrop of the 1920s and 1930s.

    Summary: The world you know is going to change dramatically and permanently. Anyone under fifty, with a normal life expectation, will live to see a world almost unrecognisable from the one they grew up in. Five billion people will die within a very short time. There will be no cars, no lorries, no buses, no aeroplanes and no supermarkets. The rich will travel by horse and cart. The middle classes will use bicycles. The poor will walk. The oil is running out and, as a result, our civilisation is reaching its end.

    You will never read a more important or more alarming book than this one. The disaster inexorably heading our way will make any natural disaster, any tsunami, seem inconsequential. Forget global warming. Forget terrorism. They are trivial problems.

    If you want to know the truth, and you think you can deal with it, sit down, turn to the first page and read this book now. It will change your life. Forever.

    Summary: Largely dismissed by the medical profession, the increasing incidence of candida-related health problems has been called "the silent epidemic of the nineties". All of us have the yeast "organis candida albicans" in our bodies. It is only when the production of candida gets out of control that there are problems - recurrent thrush, chronic fatigue, mood swings, headaches, indecisiveness, memory loss, insomnia, muscle ache, abdominal pain, constipation, loss of sexual desire - are just a few of the common indicators that candida overgrowth may be present in the body. Identifying trigger foods is the key to combating the problem. But where do you start? This book includes a complete candida maintenance programme and features delicious and easy recipes from Joanna Kjaer.

    Summary: February 1945 - The war is almost over and Britain and America rule the waves. To enlist for a German U-boat is suicidal. But sixty young Nazi soldiers choose to enter the cramped underwater conditions of the U-869 for the most difficult mission of all - to reach and then bomb the coast of America. Several weeks later the boat barely has enough fuel to make it home and radio links with Germany are broken. The commander, Neuerberg, must make a tough decision: to carry on to America and risk death in the pursuit of glory, or to admit defeat and return home. Driven by pride, patriotism and determination, he decides to risk it. June 1991 - A group of deep-sea divers hear about the wreck of a U-boat 260 feet beneath the sea. There are virtually no records of the Nazi submarine, and an on-location investigation is extremely dangerous. But twelve divers decide to take the risk. Over the next six years they eventually piece together an incredible story. In the process, three of the divers die, marriages collapse, and history is made. Deep water wreck diving is the world's deadliest sport, and John Chatterton and Richie Kohler pushed its limits. This is a beautifully written, dramatic book about one of the greatest of human traits - the resolve people find in moments of deepest peril.

    Edition date: 2007

    Summary: In "Semi-detached" Griff Rhys Jones recreates his suburban childhood and adolescence in precise and evocative detail; every young trauma, embarrassment and joyous rebellion, hazily-remembered summer afternoons realised into the wild of the woods and forming feral gangs. He relives the freezing bus journeys to school and the impulsive stealing of half-a-crown from Charlie Hume's money box; holidays in the dreary exile of Weston-Super-Mare or outside Butlins at Clacton, longing to be in - images that are fixed in his consciousness, utterly fuzzy at the edges like a Mivvi but even more concentrated at the centre, frozen into a gooey sweet jam of pure recollected emotion. A confident middle child, Griff adored his mother Gwen and father Elwyn - a shy doctor and woodwork fanatic who loathed the tedium of English social ritual but had a penchant for sweeties and ice-cream and was constantly battling with his weight. These two people were the centre of Griff's young world, and so when he finally left the bossom of his loving, irascible, eccentric, solid, all engulfing family it was no easy process. If he hadn't moved around so much as a child, would Griff have felt less like an outsider?

    Less willing all his life to be a voyeur, looking in on the lighted window across the square, the Georgian house glowing in the sun, the blink of glasses and the bray of public school certainties? A real treat for anyone who remembers or want to know about Britain in the late 60's and 70's, laugh aloud at Griff's self-deprecating, elegant, affectionate prose, or understand a little bit better how on earth they got from there to here.

    Dust-jacket: not applicable (see below for guidance)

    Publisher: 4th Estate

    Edition date: 2002

    Summary: This title tells the story of long-term capital management where a group of elite investors believe they can beat the market and, like alchemists, create limitless wealth for themselves and their partners. In fact, they create a trillion-dollar hole in the international banking system. How One Small Bank Created a Trillion-Dollar Hole When Genius Failed is the extraordinary final instalment in a financial saga that began with the gambling on the futures markets in the 1980s. It is the conclusion of the poker players so memorably depicted in Liar's Poker and, fictionally, in Bonfire of the Vanities. By 1994 John Meriweather, the pivotal figure on the trading floor at Salomon Brothers during the 1980s when the firm had made $500 million annual profits in arbitrage alone, was out of work. To fill his time, he created a financial institution as much a product of the era of the 1990s as the futures floors had been in the 1980s: a hedge fund, named Long-Term Capital Management. Meriweather took to LTCM the brightest of his disciples from Salomon and added Nobel prize-winning economics from Harvard. The team believed that it could outsmart the markets in a strategy of hedge betting, leveraged to levels previously unseen. Even a small percentage profit could be turned into a huge financial gain if the stake placed was big enough. So LTCM bet big, very big. Hedge funds are the equivalent of private clubs on Pall Mall or exclusive Oxbridge colleges: you have to be invited to join. And you have to be extremely rich. LTCM's partners quickly included every bank on Wall Street and many of Europe's premier banks as well. They built up a fund of $100 billion. Which meant that they could really put some money down. And they made spectacular profits for a while. Until the pressure to keep achieving led to increasingly risky speculations and less protected gambles. When the markets in Brazil, Indonesia and Russia all crashed within months of each other it was as if a wrecking ball had ploughed through LTCM. But because they had continued to leverage their investments at very high multiples the effect was shared throughout the world's banks. When LTCM went down it threatened to open up a trillion-dollar black hole, a financial abyss that could have busted a continent and an entire banking system. In a classic tale of greed, ambition, pride and overbearing confidence in their ability to beat the market, Meriweather's poker players play out their last hand. A parable of extraordinary drama, it is also a brilliant morality story of our times and a vivid warning of capitalism's ability to consume its own.

    Edition date: 2004

    Summary: RegEx is supported in all major development environments (for use in editing and working with code) and will thus appeal to anyone using these tools. In addition, every JavaScript developer should be using RegEx, but most don't as it has never been taught to them properly before. Developers using ASP, C#, ColdFusion, Java JSP, PHP, Perl, Python, and more can (and should) be using RegEx, and so every one of them is a potential reader too. Sams Teach Yourself Regular Expressions in 10 Minutes is a tutorial book organized into a series of easy-to-follow 10-minutes lessons. These well targeted lessons teach you in 10 minutes what other books might take hundreds of pages to cover. Instead of dwelling on syntax, terminology, and arcane examples and scenarios, this book takes a very hands-on approach to solving the needs of the majority of RegEx users who simply need to manipulate data.

    Summary: A majority of British children mainly eat processed and junk food. Award-winning food writer Joanna Blythman takes a controversial look at this curious phenomenon and offers parents practical tips on how to improve their children's diet. Written in a highly accessible way, The Food Our Children Eat offers practical tips for parents who are concerned about what their children eat and looks at the long term consequences for human health and society of the increase in consumption of junk food. Joanna Blythman suggests strategies for ensuring our children eat more healthily, both at home and at school, with invaluable advice about how to interest children in nutritious food. This well-researched and fascinating book also discusses the impact of our eating habits on the younger generation and attacks the complacency that surrounds the emergence of separate kids' food and mealtimes. The Food Our Children Eat explores the decline in the standard of food children eat and is an intriguing polemic on what we can do to improve it.

    Summary: Although Jodie is only eight years old, she is violent, aggressive, and has already been through numerous foster families. Her last hope is Cathy Glass. A number 1 Sunday Times Bestseller. At the Social Services office, Cathy (an experienced foster carer) is pressured into taking Jodie as a new placement. Jodie's challenging behaviour has seen off five carers in four months. Despite her reservations, Cathy decides to take on Jodie to protect her from being placed in an institution. Jodie arrives, and her first act is to soil herself, and then wipe it on her face, grinning wickedly. Jodie meets Cathy's teenage children, and greets them with a sharp kick to the shins. That night, Cathy finds Jodie covered in blood, having cut her own wrist, and smeared the blood over her face. As Jodie begins to trust Cathy her behaviour improves. Over time, with childish honesty, she reveals details of her abuse at the hands of her parents and others. It becomes clear that Jodie's parents were involved in a sickening paedophile ring, with neighbours and Social Services not seeing what should have been obvious signs. Unfortunately Jodie becomes increasingly withdrawn, and it's clear she needs psychiatric therapy. Cathy urges the Social Services to provide funding, but instead they decide to take Jodie away from her, and place her in a residential unit. Although the paedophile ring is investigated and brought to justice, Jodie's future is still up in the air. Cathy promises that she will stand by her no matter what -- her love for the abandoned Jodie is unbreakable.

    Summary: The essential guide to using and enhancing Tantric sexual energy. Switch off the mind, awaken all the senses and become aware of your whole body. Tantra, known as the Tao of Love in China, is an Eastern path to self-development. Within Tantric thought, sexual energy is a key dimension of our bodies vital life force -- and it's an energy which needs to be harmonised if we are to live life happily and fullfil our true potential. The Tantra involves letting your mind go and becoming more expressive through your body -- Tantric Sex introduces the essentials of this simple, life enhancing erotic tradition. Rather than prescribing a set of impractical 'adventurous' sexual positions, the Tantra nurtures intimacy, sexual and emotional self-confidence, and the healthy development of sexual energy flow through the whole body. As the mind and body become harmonised, communication skills, personal creativity and spontaneity will be positively boosted by Tantric sex. Long term couples can find new, deeper and spiritual ways of expressing their sexuality and the healing of past sexual or emotional hurts will be encouraged too. Tantric Sex looks at: * The union of male and female principles * The liberation of repressed sexual energy -- how to free your soul to fulfill it's potential. * How to tap into our natural fiery energy and discover a great lust for life. * How to use meditation, visualisation and fantasy to improve sexual and emotional confidence within a couple and in daily life.

    Summary: Everyone has those times when they want to lose their love handles quickly - to get back in their jeans, lose weight put on over Christmas, or look fantastic for a special occasion or a holiday. Joanna Hall shows people how to achieve this and, more importantly, how to make sure the weight doesn't go straight back on. Tried and tested on 12 volunteers, "Drop a Size in Two Weeks Flat!" includes: a 14-day "Get Your Rear In Gear" plan to drop a dress size - an exercise routine that fits easily into your day, a starch curfew plan (no carbohydrates after 5pm), a diet plan including simple lunches, light evening meals and snacks, foods to avoid and "quick fixes" (fashion tricks, treatments and so on); a "maintenance" system - how to keep your body trim in the long term using a simple points system, so you can eat the foods you want while keeping up the starch curfew and tips on how to maintain the good habits of the 14-day plan using the 80/20 system - you only have to be good 80 per cent of the time; and "Damage Limitation" - how to minimize the harm when away on business trips, cooking for a family, entertaining or eating out. Joanna Hall has designed a simple plan which suits the way we actually live, is extremely healthy, does not encourage poor dietary habits and stresses the need to get active to get healthy.

In a Will, you set out whom is to inherit your 'estate'; a power of attorney authorises another to act on your behalf with full legal authority; and via probate (or 'Confirmation' in Scotland), executors gain authority to administer a Will. This guide provides comprehensive background information and step-by-step instructions. For use in England & Wales and Scotland.

    Edition date: 2005

    Summary: When John Thaw, star of "The Sweeney and Inspector Morse", died from cancer in 2002, a nation lost one of its finest actors. Sheila Hancock lost a beloved husband. In this unique double biography she chronicles their lives - personal and professional, together and apart. John Thaw was born in Manchester, the son of a lorry driver. When he arrived at RADA on a scholarship he felt an outsider. In fact his timing was perfect: it was the sixties and television was beginning to make its mark. With his roles in "Z-Cars" and "The Sweeney", fame came quickly. But it was John's role as Morse that made him an icon. In 1974 John married Sheila Hancock, with whom he shared a working-class background and a RADA education. Sheila was already the star of the TV series "The Rag Trade" and went on to become the first woman artistic director at the RSC. Theirs was a sometimes turbulent, always passionate relationship, and Sheila describes their love - weathering overwork and the pressures of celebrity, drink and cancer - with honesty and piercing intelligence. "The Two of Us" is a remarkable book - a biography of a born actor and a tender, often heartbreaking memoir of a marriage. Full of insight and vivid memories, it evokes two lives lived to the utmost.

    Summary: David Sedaris' move to Paris from New York inspired these hilarious pieces, including the title essay, about his attempts to learn French from a sadistic teacher who declares that "every day spent with you is like having a caesarean section". His family is another inspiration. "You Can't Kill the Rooster" is a portrait of his brother, who talks incessant hip-hop slang to his bewildered father. And no one hones a finer fury in response to such modern annoyances as restaurant meals presented in ludicrous towers of food and cashiers with six-inch fingernails.

    Summary: A Memoir of Life and Love After Death Which is Both Poignant and Sad as Well as Brave and Uplifting; In September 1997 Justine Picardie's sister, Ruth, died of breast cancer. In this remarkable book, Justine tells the story of life after death - a year in her own life after Ruth's death; and of a search for the afterlife in the age of reason, of scepticism, of science. It tells of the yearning for a voice amongst the silence, and of how we fill the space that appears when someone dies; or how the space fills itself.

    Publisher: Eden Project

    Edition date: 2003

    Summary: While the British are happy to call themselves a nation of gardeners, they rarely have any idea of the science that is happening before their very eyes. How did plants get to be the way they are? Why do they have pretty flowers? How different would things have been if the wrong kind of pollinators had got the upper hand? Why are Latin names so complicated, and why Latin anyway? Why is a weed-free lawn an ecological impossibility? This entertaining book gives the answers to these questions and many more. It shows how a little botanical knowledge can bring not just better results, but also peace of mind, and that losing sleep over such traditional gardening bogeys as weeds, pests, and pruning, is not necessarily the best course. Indeed, if Ken Thompson's message can be summed up in one word, that word is relax.

Chapters on partnership dissolution, joint venture accounts, bills of exchange, and consignment accounts, have been incorporated from Volume 2. A selection of recent questions from examining boards and professional bodies has been included.

As well as following medical advice, there are many positive self-help steps that may be taken towards alleviating some of the distressing symptoms of asthma. Based on 20 years' experience of practising complementary therapies, with a special emphasis on asthma patients, the author of this book sets out a personal action plan including herbal and homeopathic medicine, techniques for mind and breathing control, vitamin and mineral supplementation and advice on what foods to avoid. The author also shows how other therapies, such as hypnosis, osteopathy, Alexander Technique, accupuncture, aromatherapy, reflexology and Bach remedies may be employed in treating asthma.

    Summary: For some women becoming a mother seems to diminish their individuality in the eyes of the world. No longer are they a unique person with strengths, weaknesses and intriguing quirks; they feel that in spite of becoming a 'revered archetype', they have no experience at this role and are very unprepared for it. "The Real Mother's Handbook" is a reassuring and entertaining read for every mother. It discusses all of the different facets of motherhood, from dealing with issues of identity to in-laws, working, relationships, health, safety, housework, schooling, and all those tricky questions children ask, often at the most inopportune moments. Francesca Newby has interviewed hundreds of mothers and shares their often funny experiences of raising children. Without offering advice on how to bring up kids - something others seem all too willing to do - this book reassures the reader that there is an infinite number of ways to be a mother.

    The following is the system I use for grading books ~

    Mint ~ New or as new, clearly unread, no tanning to pages, no creasing to spine or cover, no marks or inscriptions. This is the condition you would expect to find in a high street bookstore or on mail-order.

    Excellent ~ The book appears to be in fine condition. A closer look reveals some signs of previous ownership, such as shelf-rubbing and in some cases an inscription. Yet on the whole, the book is perfect.

    Very Good + ~ Less than excellent condition with no more than mild tanning or foxing to pages, minor creasing to spine or cover, possible shop sticker/pencilled price or previous owner name, but no other marks or inscriptions. This is still a tight and bright copy.

    Very Good ~ The book shows clear signs of previous ownership / shelf wear. There may be some tanning / foxing to pages, slight creases to spine or cover, inscriptions from previous owner (typically their name or words of presentation).

    Good + ~ The book cover and contents may have faded in colour and there may be creases, wear and inscriptions. However the book is still intact and readable and there is no loosening to spine or pages.

    Good ~ This is an acceptable reading copy and there may be several of the reported problems above as associated with age and/or mishandling.

    Poor ~ A book such as this is sent to auction for reasons such as the edition's rarity. This will probably not make an acceptable reading copy, and is more likely to have value in relation to its collectable status.

    N.B. where a double grading is given, the latter refers to the dust-jacket, wrapper or cover

    This grading guide is updated monthly to save you scrolling through archives.

    Former United States president, Herbert Hoover was a keen angler and enjoyed waxing lyrical on the philosophical basis of fishing.

    'Man and boy, the American is a fisherman,' he declared. 'That comprehensive list of human rights, the Declaration of Independence, is firm that all men (and boys) are endowed with certain inalienable rights, including life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, which obviously includes the pursuit of fish.' 

    Hoover's Fishing for Fun is in fine condition inside, with lovely bright pages, clean text and blue illustrations. The dust-jacket is chipped a little at the spine, but has now been placed in a protective clear wrapper.

    The price may seem steep, but hunt around, for the first US printing of Fishing for Fun in this condition, it really is a catch (sorry, couldn't help myself).
