Strange
He was almost a rock star, but not quite. From his early days leading cult heroes the Doctors of Madness, through to an unexpected shift into acting, the world according to Richard "Kid" Strange has been anything but predictable. These memoirs give a fascinating first-hand glimpse into life at the hub of London's music scene during and beyond the Punk era.
Strange Things Are Happening
'The rainbow reaches right across the sky, for miles and miles, and has landed right in the middle of our field. My mother, Alison, is standing at the beginning. I'm sure it's a beginning, rather than the end, as there's no pot of gold in sight. The point where everything forms or, perhaps, is not quite formed as yet. That's my favourite place. A place alive with possibility.' Strange Things Are Happening begins with the wonder of that rainbow, and continues with many escapades down the rabbit hole. From punk and the beginnings of the DIY scene, through Acid House, psychedelia, the rise of electronic dance music and much more, Richard Norris has been involved in countless countercultural rev...
The Life of St. Thomas Hereford
Father Richard Strange SJ was born in 1611 and entered the Jesuits in 1631. It may be of interest to append a few characteristic anecdotes of the Saint, drawn from the evidence of 'witnesses who knew him well.

Curios
Two confirmed bachelors, Mr. Pugh and Mr. Tress, are rival collectors between whom pass a series of bizarre and discomfiting objects—including poisoned rings, pipes which seem to come to life, a phonograph record on which a murdered woman seems to speak from the dead, and the severed hand of a 13th-century aristocrat. This volume collects all 7 classic tales in the series, with mystery, humor, and even horror alternately at the forefront!
Introduction to Plant Pathology
This invaluable resource introduces the eleven types of organism that cause plant disease, ranging from higher plants to viroids and describes examples of cash and staple crop diseases that have caused human catastrophes. Early chapters cover serological and molecular techniques for the diagnosis of plant pathogens, epidemiology, methods for estimating disease severity and its effect on crop yields and techniques for limiting inoculum. Later chapters are concerned with colonisation of the plant and symptom development and the underlying biochemical and genetic factors that control these events. Finally, the control of plant disease using a variety of techniques including genetic modification is discussed. Modern diagnostic techniques Epidemiology and the measurement of disease severity The biochemistry and molecular biology of plant disease Control through cultural, biological, genetic and molecular techniques A wealth of examples and applications including full colour photographs
