The Essential Stowe Hou
The building of Stowe was begun in 1676; over the next century it developed into one of Europe's greatest classical houses, visited by European and Russian royalty. Surrounded by magnificent landscape gardens, the estate still inspires awe in visitors today. Numerous famous architects worked on its construction, including Sir John Vanbrugh, William Kent, James Gibbs, Robert Adam, Thomas Pitt and Sir John Soane. By the mid-nineteenth century, however, the estate had fallen into decline and was only saved by the foundation of Stowe School in 1923. Stowe House is now finally being restored to its former glory. This lavishly illustrated book explores the tumultuous history of a house that was once too grand even for royalty."
The Abbey Habit
2015 was a tumultuous year for all at The Abbey: we had to adapt our pits to the eventual loss of our away pit complex; manage when three members of the seven man squad were injured in our first meeting; enjoy watching "Rider of the Year" Greg Zengota emerge from a good 3rd heat leader into a real star, both on and off the track; welcome Darcy Ward to the team mid-season and then marvel at his amazing skills as he turned the season around for the Robins; cope with the dreadful news that emerged from Poland one Sunday afternoon that Darcy had been terribly injured in a track crash and would not ride again; manage the end of the season and playoff disappointment; resurrect the training track in the centre green and stage a junior championship round during the "Farewell" meeting; and then face up to the fact that delays would almost certainly mean that we would be racing at the old place for at least part of 2016. 330 pages, 1084 photographs and 104,000 words - this is the story of 2015 at Swindon Speedway.

White Bicycles
When Muddy Waters came to London at the start of the '60s, a kid from Boston called Joe Boyd was his tour manager; when Dylan went electric at the Newport Festival, Joe Boyd was plugging in his guitar; when the summer of love got going, Joe Boyd was running the coolest club in London, the UFO; when a bunch of club regulars called Pink Floyd recorded their first single, Joe Boyd was the producer; when a young songwriter named Nick Drake wanted to give his demo tape to someone, he chose Joe Boyd. More than any previous '60s music autobiography, Joe Boyd's White Bicycles offers the real story of what it was like to be there at the time. His greatest coup is bringing to life the famously elusive figure of Nick Drake - the first time he's been written about by anyone who knew him well. As well as the '60s heavy-hitters, this book also offers wonderfully vivid portraits of a whole host of other musicians: everyone from the great jazzman Coleman Hawkins to the folk diva Sandy Denny, Lonnie Johnson to Eric Clapton, The Incredible String Band to Fairport Convention.
Quantum Dot
What Is Quantum Dot Quantum dots (QDs) are semiconductor particles a few nanometres in size, having optical and electronic properties that differ from larger particles due to quantum mechanics. They are a central topic in nanotechnology. When the quantum dots are illuminated by UV light, an electron in the quantum dot can be excited to a state of higher energy. In the case of a semiconducting quantum dot, this process corresponds to the transition of an electron from the valence band to the conductance band. The excited electron can drop back into the valence band releasing its energy by the emission of light. This light emission (photoluminescence) is illustrated in the figure on the right....

Ron Shandler's 2025 Baseball Forecaster
For more than 35 years, the very best in baseball predictions and statistics The industry's longest-running publication for baseball analysts and fantasy leaguers, Ron Shandler's Baseball Forecaster, published annually since 1986, is the first book to approach prognostication by breaking performance down into its component parts. Rather than predicting batting average, for instance, this resource looks at the elements of skill that make up any given batter's ability to distinguish between balls and strikes, his propensity to make contact with the ball, and what happens when he makes contact—reverse engineering those skills back into batting average. The result is an unparalleled forecast of baseball abilities and trends for the upcoming season and beyond.
All Fall Down
Continuing on from the bestselling true crime stories Three Crooked Kings and Jacks and Jokers, All Fall Down follows Terry Lewis as he becomes police commissioner and the era of corruption at the highest levels of the police and government goes on. As the Queensland police become more connected with their corrupt colleagues in Sydney, the era of heavy drugs and crime also begins. Tony Murphy and Glen Hallahan, two of the original "crooked kings," become more enmeshed with "The Joke" which is run by bagman Jack Herbert. All Fall Down introduces new characters, more extraordinary behavior outside the law by the law, and along the way it charts the meteoric rise of police commissioner Terry Lewis. But with the arrival of the Fitzgerald Inquiry in the late 1980s, many will fall—and it's not always the people who should. Once again award-winning journalist and novelist Matthew Condon has drawn from unprecedented access to Terry Lewis, as well as hundreds of interviews with key players and conspirators to craft the definitive account of the rise—and spectacular fall—of one man, an entire state, and over a generation of corruption.
