Herbert Von Karajan
"A monumental work of scholarship, of integrity, of sympathy born of respect and humanity. A woven tapestry, rather than a mere listing of events and accomplishments, it reveals itself quietly and objectively, leaving the reader to judge a man whose personality was inseparable from the history of the age and his own background. ' Yehudi Menuhin. To write abour Karajan (1908-1989) is like writing about Callas - he w as a megastar. Born in Austria, he had particular contacts with Salzburg and Vienna, and his career included controversial musical directorships in Ulm and Aachen. he was the mastermind behind the grea test European orchestra of his age: the Berlin Philharmonic. He worked with the finest artists of his time and pioneered the huge international business of recordings. ' The conductor's conductor', his career spanned a century."--Provided by the publisher.
Sahara, Or, Except for George
Sahara: An account in verse of a journey by four intrepid travellers - including George - through the interior of Libya to the Akakus, in search of ancient rock drawings. Skilfully composed stanzas combine traditional form with modern sensibility, comedy, literary allusion and descriptions of desert history in an absorbing fast-moving narrative.

Emergent Strategy
Emergence is the way complex systems and patterns arise out of a multiplicity of relatively simple interactions. In the framework of emergence, the whole is a mirror of the parts. Existence is fractal - the health of the cell is the health of the species and the planet. Change is constant. This book is about how we can shape the changes we experience to match our intentions using strategic methods that are as adaptive, resilient decentralised, and interdependent as the patterns of flocking birds or differentiating cells. A secular spirituality based equally on science and science fiction.
A Garden of Dainty Delights
A delightful selection of popular tunes from the 16th-18th centuries arranged for the Anglo concertina in the harmonic style by concertina virtuoso Adrian Brown. More than 40 tunes are presented with chords and full accompaniment using the same tablature system used by Gary Coover for his tutors and tune collections. The book includes tablature for both the Jeffries and Wheatstone/Lachenal systems of note layout as well as informative notes on the sources and history of the tunes. These are not easy tunes, but learning and playing them, in addition to being great fun, will also dramatically improve your concertina playing skills.
