The reality and myths connected to shooting and the shooting day are presented in this informative and amusing new book by Jeremy Hobson. The author discusses the superstitions of some game shots; recounts the experiences of many and either exposes the fallacy or gives the scientific truth behind a few commonly-held beliefs. Tied in is traditional country life and weather lore as it appertains to shooting and gamekeeping. As such, this somewhat quirky tome, hilariously illustrated by Bryn Parry, is the perfect gift for those who love being out in the shooting field at no matter what level... or in what conditions!

Reveals international theory as embedded within Eurocentrism such that its purpose is to celebrate/defend the idea of Western civilization.
The economic theories of the English economist and social scientist J.A. Hobson (1858-1940) were pioneering for their time. This book critically analyses his theories and shows that many of them have contemporary relevance. Hobson is best known by today's economists for his underconsumption theory, which was recognised by Keynes as an important forerunner of The General Theory. Hobson's underconsumption theory is modelled and compared with the economic growth theories of Harrod and Domar. Also included are accounts of Hobson's theories in the areas of welfare economics, income distribution and prices, money and credit, and international economics. The book also outlines Hobson's theory of imperialism, which was addressed to an audience far wider than that of economists, and gained him international fame.
J.A. Hobson has not always received the attention he deserves. This collection of essays, drawn from the conference to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of his death, will go a considerable way in rectifying this situation. This volume contains contributions from many of the leading scholars on Hobson. They are writing on a wide range of subjects from political theory, moral philosophy, imperialism, international relations to economics.
