"I have what is called locked-in syndrome. Yes ... Read that again ... Locked. In. Syndrome. The trouble is that I'm the only person to have figured this out." Meet Dave. Dave is an eighteen-year-old blind, quadriplegic victim of medical negligence. He is highly intelligent, has an almost photographic memory, and is capable of absorbing knowledge at a phenomenal rate. Dave's world revolves around the antics of his dysfunctional, avaricious, unloving family and everything he learns from BBC Radio 4 which provides a link to an outside world he knows he will never belong to. Life is bleak for Dave. Until he meets the one person who may be able to save him. "Just when I'd thought things had got as bad as they could get, they got even worse. There's a singer called Morrissey who writes songs about stuff like this, and even he would struggle to make this sound as miserable as it is."

Newcastle's Grainger Town

Grainger Town is as much an idea as it is a place. It is an important phenomenon, both historically and in today's debate about conservation in our cities and towns. Richard Grainger, a native of Newcastle and a builder and speculator unparalleled in the region, in the middle decades of the 19th century co-ordinated a radical re-planning that turned the town of his birth from an already handsome regional capital to one which excited the admiration of visitors from far and wide. Grainger's particular achievement was to create a new commercial and residential heart within a historic town, a heart with consistent architectural quality starkly different from the piecemeal and eclectic character of most northern industrial cities. This book describes the evolution of the area and explains how recent planning initiatives have celebrated and exploited a unique urban landscape and injected new life into it.

Management of Historic Centres

This book examines key themes for the management of historic urban centres within a representative sample of centres in different European countries. The twelve historic centres that have been chosen are spread throughout Europe. They are diverse in character and the range includes small towns, cities and urban centres within cities. Some have been designated by UNESCO as World Heritage Sites or Cities, whilst others have recognition, or have been proposed as European Cities of Culture. The centres have all faced different problems and a variety of approaches have been utilised which are also examined. For each of the historic centres in the book the authors broadly cover a number of common themes: the policy and planning framework; management and regeneration action; environmental management; tourism and heritage management; and sustainability.

2022 Winner of the OIV Award in the Oenology category An essential guide to the faults and flaws that can affect wine Written by the award-winning wine expert, Keith Grainger, this book provides a detailed examination and explanation of the causes and impact of the faults, flaws and taints that may affect wine. Each fault is discussed using the following criteria: what it is; how it can be detected by sensory or laboratory analysis; what the cause is; how it might be prevented; whether an affected wine is treatable, and if so, how; and the science applicable to the fault. The incidences of faulty wines reaching the consumer are greater than would be regarded as acceptable in most other indus...
