All governments, whatever their political colours, fall victim to the satirists and comedians. In a democracy it is only right and proper that they should. Just as Margaret Thatcher and John Major were ridiculed and lampooned before them, now it is the turn of Blair, Prescott, Cook and Brown.

A new edition of the bestselling classic – published with a special introduction to mark its 10th anniversary This pioneering account sets out to understand the structure of the human brain – the place where mind meets matter. Until recently, the left hemisphere of our brain has been seen as the ‘rational’ side, the superior partner to the right. But is this distinction true? Drawing on a vast body of experimental research, Iain McGilchrist argues while our left brain makes for a wonderful servant, it is a very poor master. As he shows, it is the right side which is the more reliable and insightful. Without it, our world would be mechanistic – stripped of depth, colour and value.

The 100km (62 mile) route begins at Melrose and crosses the rugged crags and heather moorland of the Cheviot Hills, passing through Northumberland National Park to the atmospheric Lindisfarne (Holy Island). It can be walked within a week, although there is scope for shortening or lengthening the stages to suit different itineraries. Includes an option to continue to Berwick-upon-Tweed on the final stage of the Northumberland Coast Path. The guidebook is crammed with interesting snippets of information, alongside indispensable practical details of transport and accommodation in the area. With varied scenery and a rich history encompassing spectacular castles, medieval abbeys and Roman remains, this is one of Britain's most beautiful corners to explore on foot.
