2975 Jan Ward Brown Papers
Notes for 'History of Darling Downs'
Themistocles
This is a historical novel about Themistocles, the Greek general of the fifth century B.C. whose accomplishments have been downplayed for too many centuries. It was Themistocles who led his countrymen to victory in the decisive battle against the Persians in 480 B.C.--the Battle of Salamis. Had it not been for Themistocles, the infamous battle would not have taken place, and the Persians would have continued their siege of Attica, taking the entire peninsula into their despotic control. Democracy would not have had the opportunity to grow and flourish.
Exceptionally Gifted Children
Exceptionally Gifted Children examines the origin, development and school histories of fifteen Australian children who are amongst the most intellectually gifted young people ever to be identified and studied. The first phase of a longitudinal research project which will trace the children through to adulthood, this book looks in detail at the children's early lives and influences, their families and personal characteristics. More importantly, this book explores the school experiences of the children, the opportunities offered and denied to them and the effects of their early school life on their educational development and how the school environment can affect: * self-esteem * self-concept * motivation * the capacity to find and form friendships * the children's own attitudes towards their abilities and achievements. This fascinating study will be of interest to education researchers, those working in special educational needs, and anyone with a particular interest in this field.
Raising the Bar
A rags to riches story, twice over – as featured on Channel Four’s The Secret Millionaire. Raising the Bar documents Rob Lloyd's life growing up on a farm in Cheshire, his years at boarding school, his close relationship with his father and distant relationship with his mother, as well as the problems he had landing his first job (having failed his English Language O level six times). His appearance on The Secret Millionaire is also described in detail.
Treason's Reward
It's hard to tell who the traitors are when they work for the same government agency. Agent Jack Golightly and his best friend, and former agent as well, Ward Lowe are trapped in the jungles of South America with no back up. Putting out an SOS they have to wait for Jan, Ward's wife and former PED agent herself. Without knowing it they have stumbled onto a huge smuggling ring involving government agencies and headed up by a rival that would like nothing better than to see Ward and Jack dead and Jan belonging to him. Fighting the government and the man that has betrayed Ward and Jan more times than they want to count they get help from unlikely sources.
