Who Owns Britain
A startling expose of Britain's most valuable asset - its land.

Procrastination and Task Avoidance
Procrastination is a fascinating, highly complex human phenomenon for which the time has come for systematic theoretical and therapeutic effort. The present volume reflects this effort. It was a labor of love to read this scholarly, timely book-the first of its kind on the topic. It was especially encouraging to find that its authors are remarkably free of the phenomenon they have been investigating. One might have expected the opposite. It has often been argued that people select topics that trouble them and come to understand their problems better by studying or treating them in others. This does not appear to be true of the procrastination researchers represented in this book. I base this...
Wholly Woman, Holy Blood

10 year old Kal and his mates (Mal, Ro, Tilly, Jaz and Boff) are having a sleep-over round Kal's to celebrate his birthday. As the night draws in, the kids indulge in an age old pastime. Scaring the living daylights out of each other.Kal tells the story of a local house, said to be haunted by the ghost of a man who once lived there with his ageing mother and his pet monkey. As a boy, Kal's Dad and his mates snuck into the very same house, only to come screaming out again when they found something absolutely terrifying in the upstairs bedroom. Kal challenges his friends to do the same, and with varying degrees of reluctance, they disappear into the night. Meanwhile, Kal's much put upon 8 year old sister, Lou, has been listening at the door. Despite the fact that Kal told her it was his sleep-over and babies weren't allowed to take part, Lou sneaks after the gang. Scary Play follows the ten year olds (and Lou) as they creep into the haunted house and each faces up to their own unique fear.
Thalidomide Catastrophe
"e;This momentous book is the first comprehensive history of thalidomide...It demonstrates how many thousands of victims could have been spared very late in the day if Chemie Grunenthal had taken any notice of the early alarms: ... [It] carries conviction by its scientific rigour, and the clarity of the writing. Fifty years after the deaths and sufferings, the thalidomide tragedy is marked by ... the odour of corruption and cover up."e; - Sir Harold Evans, former editor of The Sunday Times and The Times

The Plays of Georgia Douglas Johnson
Recovering the stage work of one of America's finest black female writers This volume collects twelve of Georgia Douglas Johnson's one-act plays, including two never-before-published scripts found in the Library of Congress. As an integral part of Washington, D.C.'s, thriving turn-of-the-century literary scene, Johnson hosted regular meetings with Harlem Renaissance writers and other artists, including Countee Cullen, Langston Hughes, May Miller, and Jean Toomer, and was herself considered among the finest writers of the time. Johnson also worked for U.S. government agencies and actively supported women's and minorities' rights. As a leading authority on Johnson, Judith L. Stephens provides a brief overview of Johnson's career and significance as a playwright; sections on the creative environment in which she worked; her S Street Salon; "The Saturday Nighters," and its significance to the New Negro Theatre; selected photographs; and a discussion of Johnson's genres, themes, and artistic techniques.
