Suspected Hippy
Barely nineteen years old with her head full of dreams and heart full of hope, author Frances Griffiths journeyed overland from Australia to India on her own, in 1974. Without the necessities of today (like mobile phones and credit cards), she travelled on a very tight budget or on a wire. What became known as the ‘Hippy Trail’- a route winding through Bali and Southeast Asia, to India and Nepal - was forged by young adventurers like herself, from Australia, Europe, and North America. Griffiths offers a rare glimpse into a time when travel to these exotic places was difficult and dangerous. To finance her trip Griffiths worked on a prawn trawler in the Gulf of Carpentaria in Australia, a...

The Coming of the Fairies
The Coming of the Fairies is a book written by Arthur Conan Doyle first published by Hodder & Stoughton Ltd. on 1 september 1922.This is a relatively short book containing the 5 "fairy photographs" taken in 1917 and 1920 in Cottingley, Yorkshire by Elsie Wright (age 16 in 1917) and Frances Griffiths (age 10 in 1917), as well as additional photographs taken in the same area. Though the book is by Doyle he quotes extensively from the letters and notes of others, so I would say that his actual writing makes up no more than half the text.
The Case of the Cottingley Fairies
This biography examines whether two cousins, Elsie Wright and Frances Griffiths, really witnessed and photographed fairies in the suburb of Cottingley in Bradford over 70 years ago. It questions why people such as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Edward Gardner were convinced that the photographs were genuine. This text reveals what the author discovered about the case of the Cottingley fairies, as he worked with the two cousins for six years for the purpose of his research, and found that some of their prevarications become confessions.

Complexity and Healthcare
This book illustrates the relevance of chaos and complexity theory to healthcare organisations, public health, clinical governance and the consultation. It explains the terms and ideas at the heart of complexity, the unfamiliar science behind it, and how it applies to the real world. In healthcare, the NHS is a complex adaptive system. So are hospitals, general practices, diseases and patients. The book describes how insights from complexity can help us better understand how organisations, patients or disease develop over time, in an often unpredictable manner. Contributors set out the benefits of applying complexity to their own particular areas of healthcare. Complexity and Healthcare will be of special interest to clinicians and managers in primary and secondary care, researchers and academics, and in particular, general practitioners and public health professionals.
