What does it mean to be poor in Britain and America? For decades the primary narrative about poverty in both countries is that it has been caused by personal flaws or ‘bad life decisions’ rather than policy choices or economic inequality. This misleading account has become deeply embedded in the public consciousness with serious ramifications for how financially vulnerable people are seen, spoken about and treated. Drawing on a two-year multi-platform initiative, this book by award-winning journalist and author Mary O’Hara, asks how we can overturn this portrayal once and for all. Crucially, she turns to the real experts to try to find answers – the people who live it.
The author's insights about a variety of natural phenomena contribute to our understanding of some of the great medical puzzles of the era. -- Back cover.
The funniest book about punctuation you’ll ever read. Dee has a problem with Apostrofee. He keeps stealing letters and replacing them with himself! E is the first to go (turning DELISH into D’LISH), then A (I AM into I’M), and a lot of Os (WOULD NOT into WOULDN’T, COULD NOT into COULDN’T … you get the idea). Dee and the other letters have had enough! Though they have to admit Apostrofee is kind of helpful sometimes. And they do miss him when he’s not around. Should they forgive him, so they can live in peace ’n’ harmony? Who knew punctuation could be so hilarious?

Now Lee Hale, the show's musical director, and later producer of The Golddiggers and Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts, lets you peek behind the curtains at all the fun, friendship, and occasional star tantrums that went into making this top-rated variety program.
