Every Tale Has Two Sides
Andrew Bowman’s debut novel takes a whimsical twist on a classic tale, setting the stage with an eviction officer’s seemingly straightforward task turned awry. Tasked with evicting three brothers from their makeshift homes, our protagonist finds himself in a series of unexpectedly disastrous – and hilariously recounted – situations. From houses of straw and sticks to a sturdy brick abode, each encounter escalates in this cleverly inverted narrative. With humour, unexpected turns, and a fresh perspective on a familiar story, Bowman crafts a tale of mishaps, resilience, and the quest for a new job. Every Tale Has Two Sides promises a journey filled with laughter, reflection, and the reminder that there’s always another side to the story.
The end of the experiment?
For thirty years, the British economy has repeated the same old experiment of subjecting everything to competition and market because that is what works in the imagination of central government. This book demonstrates the repeated failure of that experiment by detailed examination of three sectors: broadband, food supply and retail banking. The book argues for a new experiment in social licensing whereby the right to trade in foundational activities would be dependent on the discharge of social obligations in the form of sourcing, training and living wages. Written by a team of researchers and policy advocates based at the Centre for Research on Socio Cultural Change, this book combines rigour and readability, and will be relevant to practitioners, policy makers, academics and engaged citizens.

Designing World Class Corporate Strategies
Designing World Class Corporate Strategies considers the key role of corporate centres within very large, primarily multi-business organisations.

Designing World Class Corporate Strategies is highly readable, with a large number of illustrative examples included in the text. Academic references and theoretical underpinnings are placed in the final chapter of the book, so that the book is focused on the professional market for strategy and creating value.
Carrying the Colors
In 1862, Andrew "Andy" Jackson Smith, son of a white landowner and enslaved woman, escaped to Union troops operating in Kentucky, made his way to the North, and volunteered for the 55th Massachusetts, one of the newly formed African American regiments. The regiment was deployed to South Carolina, and during a desperate assault on a Confederate battery, the color bearer was killed. Before the flag was lost, Smith quickly retrieved it and under heavy fire held the colors steady while the decimated regiment withdrew.
