Jonathan Davies
Jonathan Davies's rubgy career began in Union, where he excelled as fly-half for Neath and Llanelli. He was later appointed captain of the Wales 15. In 1989, Davies made the leap to League, from the amateur to the professional game, when he signed for Widnes. His speed, agility and brains soon brought him fame among the burly League players and his transformation from 15 to 13 was so successful that he is now unique in the world, having captained his country in both Union and League rugby.
Jonathan
In early 1989, the rugby international Jonathan Davies caused a sensation when he decided to renounce Rugby Union to become a Rugby League professional with Widnes for a world-record fee of 200,000 pounds. In this autobiography, he talks freely about the reasons for his move and his career.
The Piano Factory
Jimmy Reilly has always protested his innocence, and Jeremy Scott, his lawyer, has always believed him. He’s convinced that the case against Reilly will collapse, that he’ll leave court as a free man. But there’s a loophole in the law, and Reilly falls right through it. Even the jury is stunned by what they, unwittingly, have done to him. Yet persistently denying the charges, he is denied any help. Scott, furious at the failings of his own profession, steps outside its parameters to investigate the case himself—and slides straight into a world that both mirrors and mocks the judicial system. A parallel universe populated by cops, ex-cons, and court reporters—people who, for a price, will “fix” cases of child abuse and sexual assault. And other people who pay that price with their lives.
Challenging Governance Theory
This topical book takes a critical look at contemporary governance theory, arguing that there are structural impediments to achieving an ideology of networks and reconsidering it from Marxist and Gramscian perspectives.
Between Realism and Revolt
Leading governance theorist Jonathan S. Davies develops a rich comparative analysis of austerity governance and resistance in eight cities, to establish a conjunctural perspective on the rolling crises of neoliberal globalism. Drawing on a major international study of eight cities, Davies employs Gramscian regime analysis to consider the consolidation, weakening and transformation of urban governance regimes through the age of austerity. He explores how urban governance shapes variations in austere neoliberalism, tackling themes including collaboration, dominance, resistance and counter-hegemony. The book is a significant addition to thinking about how the era of austerity politics influences urban governance today, and the potential for alternative urban futures.
The Medieval Cannon 1326–1494
The first illustration of a cannon in Europe can be dated quite precisely to 1326. This book explores the development of gunpowder, the earliest appearance of cast-bronze cannon in Western Europe, followed by the design and development of the wrought-iron cannon. The wrought-iron hoop-and-stave method of barrel construction was a system that came to dominate medieval artillery design both large and small until the end of the 15th century, and saw the cannon used not only as a prestige weapon, but start to be used as a practical and terrifying weapon on the medieval battlefield. In 1453, the Ottomans' conquest of Constantinople, with their extensive artillery, marked the triumph of medieval firepower. The book will focus on the technology and tactics of early European artillery on both sea and land, and assess its impact on medieval warfare.

Representing the Dynasty in Flavian Rome
Representing the Dynasty in Flavian Rome investigates the problem of contemporary historiography and regime representation in Flavian Rome through a close study of a text not usually read for such purposes but which has obvious promise for a study of this theme, the Jewish War of Flavius Josephus. Having surveyed the evolution of our conception of Josephus' relationship to Flavian power, taken a broad account of issues of political expression and regime representation in Flavian Rome outside Josephus and examined questions relating to the structure and date of the work, Davies provides a series of thematically-focused readings of the three senior members of the Flavian family, Vespasian, Tit...
