The Birds of Nottinghamshire
The last comprehensive review of Nottinghamshire's birds was produced more than four decades ago. Much has changed since then, and a new avifauna is long overdue.

Aids
The Reverend Nick Fielding was sure AIDS was sent to kill all gay men. When asked to use his powerful broadcasting network to educate the public on the spread of the horrible disease, he refused. Nick was not the typical evangelist. He grew up in a reform school after he maimed and killed customers of the sexual insatiable, Nancy, the girl he not only pimped for but loved enough to marry. Trained in chemical warfare in the detention home, he served in World War II, in a highly-skilled special unit. Drunk and disorderly at the end of his rope, a miracle changed Nick the drunk to the Reverend Nick Fielding. Told in flash backs, Nick suddenly used his broadcasting system to help combat AIDS. Was it God who changed Nick, or was it something more sinister?

Capitalism is the only complex system known to us that can provide an efficient and innovative economy, but the financial crisis has brought out the pernicious side of capitalism and shown that it remains dependent on the state to rescue it from its own deficiencies. Can capitalism be reshaped so that it is fit for society, or must we acquiesce to the neoliberal view that society will be at its best when markets are given free rein in all areas of life? The aim of this book is to show that the acceptance of capitalism and the market does not require us to accept the full neoliberal agenda of unrestrained markets, insecurity in our working lives, and neglect of the environment and of public s...
