The Art of Rest
Shortlisted for the British Psychological Society Book Award for Popular Science Much of value has been written about sleep, but rest is different; it is how we unwind, calm our minds and recharge our bodies. The Art of Rest draws on ground-breaking research Claudia Hammond collaborated on: ‘The Rest Test’, the largest global survey into rest ever undertaken, completed by 18,000 people across 135 different countries. The survey revealed how people get rest and how it is directly linked to your sense of wellbeing. Counting down through the top ten activities which people find most restful, Hammond explains why rest matters, examines the science behind the results to establish what really works and offers a roadmap for a new, more restful and balanced life.
House of Commons - Defence Committee: Towards the Next Defence and Security Review: Part One - HC 197
In this report the Defence Committee argues that the capabilities of HM Forces should be determined not by budgetary constraints but by a fully-developed strategy which defines the position in the world that the UK wants to adopt. The report urges the government to produce a comprehensive national security strategy in the first place and let that document, along with the Comprehensive Spending Review (CSR), direct the next Strategic Defence and Security Review (SDSR). The allocation of resources will be based on national spending priorities set to meet the nation's security needs. There is a danger of defence becoming a matter of discretionary spending. Decisions about the expeditionary capa...

We are Not One People
E pluribus unum was suggested for the national seal in 1776, but national oneness has been haunted by its opposite ever since. We Are Not One People demonstrates how the persistence of separatist movements in American history reveals as much about the nation's politics as it does the would-be separatists. Each chapter explores how great swaths of Americans of every ideological stripe, in good times and bad, in and beyond the South, have disputed the nation's oneness and stressed its divisibility. Trumpeted in American myths, mottos, movies, and songs, separatism is omnipresent in American political culture. Separatist rhetoric has shaped Americans' experience of what it means to be an American, and we can learn much about the durable appeal and enduring fragility of the United States from those who tried to leave it. As one Vermont separatist quips, leaving is as American as apple pie. We Are Not One People is a bold, pathbreaking, and far-reaching account of disunionists from 1776 to the present who wanted, as phrased in the Declaration of Independence, to dissolve the political bands connecting them to other Americans.
WE ARE NOT THE BAD GUYS
Like so many others, Mark and Zoe have reasons to despise Sir Nigel Percy and his crooked business practices. They have a plan to extract revenge that’s so brilliant, it’s certain to make them heroes down the Coach and Horses. When it all goes wrong, they spend the next thirty-six hours wishing they had never heard of Arsen Facen or his pet kakapo. With professional thieves, hired henchmen and the forces of law and order chasing them around the streets of South Manchester, they are forced to rely on the protection of new friends and unlikely allies. Can a collection of society’s bad guys help them stay free of their pursuers long enough for them to figure out what is going on? Or, will they have to pay the price for refusing to get used to the way things are?
