C. S. Lewis and the Christian Worldview
C. S. Lewis is one of the most influential and beloved Christian writers of the past century, and interest in him continues to grow as books about his fantasy, fiction, and biography continue to appear. Although Lewis's personal journey was a deeply philosophical search for the most adequate worldview, the few extant books about his Christian philosophy focus on specific topics rather than his overall worldview. In this book, Michael Peterson develops a comprehensive framework for understanding Lewis's Christian worldview--from his arguments from reason, morality, and desire to his ideas about Incarnation, Trinity, and Atonement. All worldviews address fundamental questions about reality, kn...

The Hard Man
Malcolm Lewis from Caerffili is a freelance editor, writer and arts journalist with a music column in Planet: The Welsh Internationalist and is film critic for New Internationalist. Though now living in London, he is often to be found in South Wales. Ceri Richards (1903-71) is recognised as 'the most internationally reknowned Welsh painter' of the post-war period. His superb draughtsman is evident in these drawings of his father, which perfectly complement this tough, moving sequence of poems. A series of small-format pamphlets (following on from the Vennel Press Brief Pleasures series) Mulfran Miniatures will include taster selections by Mulfran poets, by poets who have not yet published a full collection, and by already well-known poets, alongside artists whose images inspired or respond to the poems.
The Gentlemen's Clubs of London
On its first publication in 1979, Lejeune's The Gentlemen's Clubs of London rapidly established itself as a widely sought-after and quoted work around the world among those intrigued by and participating in the rarefied world of the famous clubs of London society. This is a new, thoroughly updated edition. This book lays forth the histories of the clubs, why and how each came into being, who belongs and belonged to which, how members are chosen, and how the clubs have changed down the generations - if indeed they have. This work tells of the ambiance and grace of the clubs, their privacies and eccentricities, and of the yarns, disputes and scandals to which they have given rise. Here are new and archival photographs of the clubs' interiors, ranging from the elegant to the snug, premises which are sometimes secret and quirky and sometimes grand, each unique and fitting the character and contributing to the needs and lives of its members.

Crimes against Children
In the first half of the twentieth century, Americans' intense concern with sex crimes against children led to a wave of public discussion, legislative action, and criminal prosecution. Stephen Robertson provides the first large-scale, long-term study of how American criminal courts dealt with the prosecution of sexual violence against children. Robertson describes how the nineteenth-century approach to childhood as a single phase of innocence began to shift at the end of the century to include several stages of childhood development, prompting reformers to create legal categories such as statutory rape and carnal abuse to protect children. However, while ordinary New Yorkers' involvement in...
Revalidation of doctors
The Committee says the GMC should be accountable to Parliament. The GMC is formally accountable to the Privy Council but "In the absence of a mechanism which makes this accountability effective" the MPs intend to exercise this function themselves on behalf of Parliament. Revalidation of doctors has been under discussion for over 10 years. This is considered too long the GMC is expected to ensure that there are no further delays and that the current target date of late 2012 is achieved. Reviewing the GMC's current proposals MPs warn that too little attention has been given to the issue of how to deal with doctors whose practice gives cause for concern. The Committee is also concerned that the...
