Across The Great Divide
Dundee. To football fans, it has been the subject of great curiosity for as long as the game has been played professionally. How does a relatively small and economically challenged city manage to sustain two senior clubs which, perversely, play across the road from one another? And why has this rivalry not suffered the scourge of sectarianism which has blighted football elsewhere in Scotland? When Dundee United reached the semi-final of the 1983-84 European Cup it meant that, with the exception of Glasgow, Dundee was the only British city to have provided two semi-finalists in that great competition. Since then Dundee United have gone on to reach a UEFA Cup final and to win the Scottish Cup....
Bonetti's Blues
The star Argentiniean striker Claudio Caniggia has described Dundee as 'a football town' and, as the favoured partner of arguably the world's greatest-ever player Diego Maradona, he should know. But why should he care? What was this man doing, plying his trade in Dundee? Dundee Football Club - the Dark Blues - do have a tradition; they have produced a number of outstanding players, won all the major Scottish trophies and, in 1963, reached the semi-final of the European Cup. For the next three decades, however, their story was one of gradual decline - and you can lose a lot of supporters in 30 years. When brothers Peter and Jimmy Marr, local businessmen, took over at Dens Park in 1997, the fa...
Metagama
This title describes the impact of the removal of landless islanders from Lewis. In 1923 three Canadian liners arrived in Stornoway and took many young families from an island still reeling from the Iolaire disaster. This work explores the significance of the departure of the Metagama.
The Wilkie Reader
The Wilkie Reader may be the funniest way ever to learn the alphabet. The book’s rhyming and clever letter descriptions are a joy to children but are also perfect tools for any adults who wish to learn English. Each letter “lesson” can be enhanced by asking the students to use the letter or letters in random items around the room. “How many d’s do you see?” “Door, dog, dime, donut, and den” would be good answers. As the students advance we could ask for items with the letter sound somewhere else in the word. “Where else is the d?” “Body, food, red” would be good examples. The Wilkie Reader opens the door for learning and the teacher can be as creative as he or she wishes with the alphabet road map provided.
Spatial Audio Processing
This book collects a wealth of information about spatial audio coding into one comprehensible volume. It is a thorough reference to the 3GPP and MPEG Parametric Stereo standards and the MPEG Surround multi-channel audio coding standard. It describes key developments in coding techniques, which is an important factor in the optimization of advanced entertainment, communications and signal processing applications. Until recently, technologies for coding audio signals, such as redundancy reduction and sophisticated source and receiver models did not incorporate spatial characteristics of source and receiving ends. Spatial audio coding achieves much higher compression ratios than conventional co...

No Flight from the Cage
Originally published in 1956, former Second World War prisoner-of-war Calton Younger’s No Flight from the Cage received critical acclaim. One critic wrote, ‘the book goes below the surface of prison camp life and shows a remarkable insight into the minds of men forced to live under conditions of tension and strain.’ The former Royal Australian Air Force Bomber Command airman has now revised, expanded and updated his original work – the story of a young man’s journey to war, of being shot down in May 1942, of three years spent behind barbed wire, and of enduring forced marches as the Nazi state crumbled. The author also recounts his adventures on the run in France prior to capture a...
