How the World Changed Social Media
How the World Changed Social Media is the first book in Why We Post, a book series that investigates the findings of anthropologists who each spent 15 months living in communities across the world. This book offers a comparative analysis summarising the results of the research and explores the impact of social media on politics and gender, education and commerce. What is the result of the increased emphasis on visual communication? Are we becoming more individual or more social? Why is public social media so conservative? Why does equality online fail to shift inequality offline? How did memes become the moral police of the internet? Supported by an introduction to the project’s academic framework and theoretical terms that help to account for the findings, the book argues that the only way to appreciate and understand something as intimate and ubiquitous as social media is to be immersed in the lives of the people who post. Only then can we discover how people all around the world have already transformed social media in such unexpected ways and assess the consequences

The Great Train Robbery and the Metropolitan Police Flying Squad
The amazing true story of one of Great Britain’s most notorious heists and the crack team that brought the perpetrators to justice. On August 8, 1963, a group of fifteen men dressed in military uniforms stopped the Royal Mail train running between Glasgow and London at Sears Crossing in Ledburn. The gang uncoupled the engine and first two cars, drove them to a different location, and then disappeared with one hundred and twenty mailbags containing more than £2.5 million in used banknotes. A number of books have already been published about England’s infamous Great Train Robbery, but until now, little has been written about the intensive police investigation and the intrepid team that hu...
Beauties and the Beasts
Beauties and the Beasts by John Claridges covers two decades of his fishing experience. Told in story form it records tales of good times and bad, the rough and the smooth of fishing busy circuit waters. John's writing is inspired by the likes of Rod Hutchison, Rob Malin and of course Terry Hearn, and he hopes the contents will serve equally to inspire and entertain others interested in angling. John Claridge was born and brought up in Yateley, where he fished the nearby lakes for tench and pike. The book tells of some classic carp fishing encounters, the characters John met along the way and his drive to catch big carp from some of the most prestigious venues in the country.

My Husband and I
For more than 70 years, the marriage of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip was at the centre of the nation's life.

Journalism Education in Countries with Limited Media Freedom
"Journalism education, surrounded by ̀media tsunamis', continues to expands as a crucial area of professional and academic life. It gets to the roots of media-society relations. This volume gives important food for thought to the problematic classification of countries to free, partly free, and not free." Kaarle Nordenstreng, University of Tampere --Book Jacket.
