Does Accent Matter?
An analysis of accent in contemporary Britain.
Language is Power
Across the English-speaking world there is a liberal orthodoxy which opposes the use of standard English in schools and in society at large. But does this truly protect the underprivileged, or has it inflicted lasting educational damage on a generation of children? Is Steven Pinker, best-selling author of The Language Instinct, right to claim that all languages and dialects are equal? Professor John Honey refutes the arguments that for the past three decades have been put forward against standard English, and shows how apparently egalitarian notions of 'Black English' and other dialects can effectively limit access to standard English and hence power for disadvantaged or minority groups. He discusses the charge that the worldwide teaching of English amounts to 'linguistic imperialism', and examines whether British English will inevitably lose out to American.
When He Comes
What happens when a vengeful werewolf imprints on a healer? Honey is a little girl when she stumbles upon a dying wolf. She uses her healing powers to revive him with unexpected consequences: he's alive, and he's imprinted on her. The "wolf" is actually a werewolf. In line to become Alpha, young Keng Tolleson is left for dead by his conniving uncle, but he won't go down without a fight. Determined to take back his pack, Keng leaves Honey behind to pursue training for the purpose of revenge. Years pass, and Honey begins to believe the wolf was just a dream. But when his uncle learns about the special healer that can cure death, Keng must return for his mate or risk losing everything he loves...again.
