Not All Sunshine and Sand: The Tales of a UK-Middle East Truck Driver
Recounting his many hair-raising experiences as a truck driver on the Middle East run, some of them humorous, some alarming, Paul Rowlands recalls the camaraderie of the trucking fraternity. This book takes the reader on a ride through foreign lands in the cab of a long-haul lorry, providing an insider's perspective on overland travel. A tremendous tale, in which run-ins with the locals, dramatic encounters with foreign drivers and mechanical problems seem the norm for a long-haul lorry driver. Paul Rowlands takes us into his world as a truck driver, initially around rural Suffolk and the rest of the UK, before embarking on the Middle East run.The long-distance lorry driver deals with life in the raw, with many hardships and occasional comforts: difficulties are tempered by the sheer beauty of mountain passes, lakeside stops and the generous hospitality of the people he meets. Trucking camaraderie has seen Paul through many a crisis, and he shares the belief that help is always at hand when a fellow driver is facing a problem. The new edition of this hugely popular book incorporates 72 photographs taken at the time, many of which have never been previously published.
Imagination Theatre's Sherlock Holmes
2017 is the 130th anniversary of the publication of A Study in Scarlet, the first recorded adventure of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John H. Watson. What an amazing journey it's been! In addition to the pitifully few sixty tales originally presented in The Canon, published between 1887 and 1927, there have been literally thousands of additional Holmes adventures in the form of books, short stories, radio and television episodes, movies, manuscripts, comics, and fan fiction. And yet, for those who are true friends and admirers of the Master Detective of Baker Street, where it is always 1895 (or a few decades on either side of that!) these stories are not enough. Give us more! In March 1998, legend...
The Transformer
The Transformer follows Kris Gethin’s story from a small town in Wales, barely in control of his own life—all the way to Mumbai, India, where he transformed the bodies of Bollywood stars like Hrithik Roshan and John Abraham while helping millions get their dream physiques around the world. At 23, Kris is going nowhere. Then, one day, he goes to watch a bodybuilding competition and is amazed by the incredible physiques of the colossal men on stage. He decides that if he is ever to fulfil his potential he must transform himself like them. Kris soon discovers that not only does transformation change his body drastically; it alters his life each time he undergoes it. From a small town in Wal...
Spinners
Bill Gates, billionaire founder of Microsoft, once reportedly said that he would spend his last dollar on strategic communications. Some cynics regard PR as a puffed-up world of spin, performed by ego-loaded practitioners, none worth a dollar of anybody's money. The reality is that PR communicators have never had to grasp more complex, fast-evolving issues than they do today. The top PR men and women are power brokers in a global multibillion-dollar business. Spinners is a work of fiction. Set in an international communications consulting firm, high-stakes challenges are tackled around the globe by an eclectic group of intelligent, creative people, led by their dashing leader, Robert Silke, ...
Children in Police Custody
Drawing on the first comprehensive study in England and Wales to review the police custody process from the perspective of children, Bevan traces the child's journey from arrest, through detention and interview, to release or remand. A rights-based approach is used to evaluate the effectiveness of the protection under the present legal framework.
Apprenticeships
The apprenticeship programme can play a key role in resolving some of this county's most pressing issues. It can help us to create a more skilled workforce, to increase employment and to generate sustainable economic growth. For these reasons, the Government has, quite rightly, made apprenticeships a priority and has devoted significant resources to help them thrive. But money does not guarantee success. This wide-ranging, evidence-based report carefully lays out the areas where the current model could better serve apprentices, their employers, or, in many cases, both. The Committee recommends that the Government takes a more active approach in the future and constantly reviews the profit levels of training providers as an indicator of potential risks to efficiency. The Committee heard evidence of excessive profits at the public's expense, of a Government paying out too much money far too easily and of a lack of genuine value for money being provided by apprenticeship schemes. This is unacceptable

The Recovery Model: The Truth of Its Value
The Recovery model has been proven to make patient wards safer and show strategies that protect vulnerable patients when being discharged, whilst it demonstrates how all parts of our health service can develop using the recovery initiatives in this book, including GPs, doctors, nurses and other staff throughout our wonderful NHS. It discusses peer support aims and goals and how education plays a key role in assisting those patients in recovery to live better, more meaningful lives. Throughout the book, there is evidence provided by IMRoc at Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust as well as other NHS Trusts, including South West London, NHS Merseycare and St George’s Mental Health Trust, who were keen to contribute their findings also. The book is of paramount importance to the future of our NHS, given the vast savings that the recovery initiatives provide and show what scope there is to reinvest dividends from each strategy employed. It is also instrumental in providing ‘lessons learned’ for each and every part of the NHS that may benefit from all the findings provided so kindly by the aforementioned trusts.
A Kind of Magic
A behind-the-scenes look at the making of the classic 1986 fantasy action-adventure film, featuring insights from the cast and crew. The story of an immortal Scottish warrior battling evil down through the centuries, Highlander fused a high-concept idea with the kinetic energy of a pop promo pioneer and Queen’s explosive soundtrack to become a cult classic. When two American producers took a chance on a college student’s script, they set in motion a chain of events involving an imploding British film studio, an experimental music video director still finding his filmmaking feet, a former James Bond with a spiralling salary, and the unexpected arrival of low-budget production company, Can...
