A Life of Industry
John R Hume is Scotland's foremost expert on industrial heritage. John's greatest passion was - and is - industry. Over the course of the 1960s, 70s and 80s, he took over 25,000 photographs of late-industrial and post-industrial Scotland. His collection is a remarkable portrait of a way of life that has now all but vanished. His drive to act as a witness to Scotland's industrial empire, and its steady disintegration, took him to every corner of the country.John's photography produces an exhaustive and objective record. Yet it also reveals remarkable and poignant glimpses of domestic life - children playing in factory ruins, high-rises emerging on the city skylines, working men and women dwarfed by the incredible scale of an already crumbling industrial infrastructure.In A Life of Industry, author Daniel Gray tells John's story, and the story of what has been lost - and preserved.

John Hume and the SDLP
The SDLP has consistently defined the Northern Ireland problem as one of a divided people, rather than a territorial issue. Therefore, it raises the important question: how much revision from the traditional nationalist perspective does the SDLP portray, if at all, from the mid-70s onwards? The major objective of this study is to investigate the tensions within the party over its political identity. From the SDLP viewpoint, the huge 'yes' vote (in the 22nd May, 1998 Referendum after this book went to press), offers the greatest hope in Northern Ireland's history that Catholics and Protestants can live together on the basis of respect and equality.
Understanding Hume
David Hume was one of the most signincant thinkers of the eighteenth century and his philosophical writings encompass the major themes of his subject: epistemology, philosophy of mind, metaphysics, ethics, political philosophy and the philosophy of religion. In Understanding Hume the standard problems posed by these topics are introduced and explored in the context of eighteenth-century thought and as they relate to contemporary philosophy. The discussion is not over-complicated by arcane minutiae or narrowly-focussed exegesis. Instead, written in jargon-free language, this is an ideal introduction not only to the often difficult writings of David Hume, but also to the main areas of modern philosophical debate.

A Progress of Sentiments
Baier aims to make sense of Hume's Treatise as a whole. Hume’s family motto was “True to the End.” Baier argues that it is not until the end of the Treatise that we get his full story about “truth and falsehood, reason and folly.” By the end, we can see the cause to which Hume has been true throughout the work.
