The Modi Effect
How did a 'chai wallah' who sold tea on trains as a boy become Prime Minister of India? On May 16, 2014, Narendra Modi was declared the winner of the largest election ever conducted anywhere in the world, having fought a campaign unlike any before.

His team created an election machine that broke new ground in the use of social media, the Internet, mobile phones and digital technologies. Modi took part in thousands of public events, but in such a vast country it was impossible to visit every town and vil...
Where Power Lies
Britain has one of the oldest and most developed democracies on earth. It is admired and copied the world over. Yet at home British politics is frequently viewed with a mixture of derision and contempt. Why? Our democratic system may be mature but the politicians we elect and the media we rely on to tell us what they are up to often behave like difficult teenagers, calling each other names, arguing for the sake of argument and pointing the finger of blame rather than accepting responsibility. Little wonder that the public switches off, tired of all the racket and fed up with the lot of them. How did we get into this sorry state, or was it ever thus? With first-hand experience of the worlds o...

The Historian chances upon Surac, a land where people's destinies are defined by powerful pendants they have from birth, called Stones.

When Aric, a Creator blacksmith, has a son born with a Stone that marks him for violence and destruction, they find themselves in danger from those they called their friends.

On the far side of the wall, he learns the origin of the Stones' magic and a war that dates back centuries.

Miliband Ha
This is a political and personal biography of Ed and David Miliband, from their parent's exodus from wartime Belgium and arrival in the UK, to their current positions of power in the UK Labour Party. The Milibands make for a fascinating story: a tale of two brothers who have very different agendas and who ended up vying for leadership of the UK Labour Party. Inevitably the leadership election created tensions, whatever they may say in public, and Lance Price explores those with his customary wit and insight. Theirs is also a story about the modern Labour party, and in particular how much it must compromise, or adjust its agenda to win power. David and Ed have very different views about the future of Labour, and yet both of them are arch 'modernisers' compared to their parents' generation. Scratching beneath the surface of the very polished image that both brothers project, Lance Price explores a conflict that goes to the heart of what Labour stands for.
