Communists and British Society, 1920-1991
The revolutionary appeal of Communism in 20th-century Britain is analyzed in this examination of why Communist Party members joined, how they participated in the party's activities, and why, in many cases, they left the party. Archival resources, hundreds of interviews, and sociological analyses document the nature of left-wing activism in Britain from its earliest incarnations to the schisms of the 1980s. The role of Communism in British politics and society is illuminated by discussions of constructions of political authority; the role of gender, generation, and social class; and the significance of political space and mobility in recruitment.

Few landscapes, coastlines have been transformed as rapidly as those of Singapore. Seen from the air, the island revealed as a spectacular landscape of intricate patterns, rich textures and diverse colors. Stunning images show the true and unexpected variety of this city-state, providing a fresh perspective from which to view its landmarks and to explore the less-well-known sights of its industry, agriculture and outlying islands. In Over Singapore, award-winning Singaporean photographer Richard W. J. Koh showcases the dynamism of this ever-changing nation. His photographs are complemented by the insightful text and captions of diplomat and international lawyer Professor Tommy Koh who provides reavealing historical introduction to the book and an insider's guide to the north, south, east and west of the country.
