The Reluctant Cannibals
‘A truly compelling read with a shocking climax. Well written and incredibly descriptive, the author of this particular work has clearly done homework about the field of gastronomy to produce a wonderful and memorable read.’ Publishers Weekly 'I was going to say a brilliant debut novel, but it needs no qualification. A brilliant novel, full stop.' Paula Leyden When a group of food-obsessed academics at Oxford University form a secret dining society, they happily devote themselves to investigating exotic and forgotten culinary treasures. Until a dish is suggested that takes them all by surprise. Professor Arthur Plantagenet has been told he has a serious heart problem and decides that his death should not be in vain. He sets out his bizarre plan in a will, that on his death, tests the loyalty of his closest friends, the remaining members of this exclusive dining society. A dead Japanese diplomat, police arrests and charges of grave robbing. These are just some of the challenges these culinary explorers must overcome in tackling gastronomy’s ultimate taboo: cannibalism.

Be he@lthy, be mobile: a toolkit on how to implement MyopiaEd
Myopia represents an important public health issue in the 21st century, affecting an estimated 2.6 billion people in 2020. In the context of the Be He@lthy Be Mobile initiative, the World Health Organization and the International Telecommunication Union have developed the MyopiaEd initiative. The initiative aims to support policy- and decision-makers and implementers to develop, implement and monitor large scale mHealth initiatives targeting (i) improving awareness and health literacy of the importance of regular eye examinations and spectacle compliance amongst children and adults, and (ii) supporting behaviour change that contributes to delay the age of onset, and slow the progression of myopia, the two main predictors of developing high degrees of myopia (and its associated complications) in later life. This toolkit includes evidence-based message libraries for a range of population end-user groups, along with operational guidance and resources to support implementation of the initiative.
A Bouquet of Barbed Wire
Peter Manson's apparently successful life is turned upside down when his beloved teenage daughter Prue reveals she's pregnant by her teacher, Gavin Sorenson.

As Peter becomes consumed by anxiety for his daughter, hatred of his son in law and lust for his secretary, his relationship with his wife, Cassie, becomes increasingly distant. With Peter's marriage at breaking point and facing financial ruin, it's only a matter of time before secrets from the past return to haunt their lives. Famously controversial, the 1970s TV adaptation of A Bouquet of Barbed Wire was watched by 26 million people.
