Koviashuvik
On a slope above a mountain lake in AlaskaÕs Brooks Range, Sam and Billie Wright built a twelve-by-twelve-foot log cabin with hand tools and named it KoviashuvikÑan Eskimo word meaning "living in the present moment with quiet joy and happiness." SamÕs account of the twenty years they spent there is both a tale of wilderness survival and an inspiring meditation on the natural world and humanityÕs relationship to it.
Sam
First came the Exorcist. Then came The Omen. Now there's another creepy child to keep you awake at night. Sam by Iain Rob Wright takes everything you thought you knew about tales of possession and turns it on its head. You'll never see the ending coming. "Iain Rob Wright blows me away!" - J A Konrath, author of Origin and Afraid Want to hear a secret? When washed-up priest, Angela Murs, and skittish ghost hunter, Tim Golding, are summoned to a vast countryside manor to help a sick little boy, they have no idea what to expect. While it's clear that young Samuel Raymeady is a very disturbed child, there's surely no way he could be behind the recent spate of accidents and deaths around his home...
A Time of Novelty
In 'A Time of Novelty', Samuel Wright re-envisions the relationship between philosophy and history in premodern India through study of the tradition of Sanskrit logic between 1500 and 1700 CE. In examining these logicians, Wright expands the ways in which we study philosophical thought by considering philosophy as deeply immersed in the felt experiences of one's life, at the confluence of thinking and feeling.
It Ends With You
'A darkly clever teen murder mystery [...] that succeeds in undermining everything you've come to believe and trust. S K Wright pulls off a difficult trick with apparent ease' Crime Review If I'd told the truth, it would have been fiction. Everyone loves Eva. Beautiful, bright, fun, generous - she's perfect. So when her body is found in a ditch in the local woods the only thing anyone wants to know is: Who could have done this? It has to be Luke, her boyfriend. He has the motive, the means, the opportunity and he's no stranger to the police. Even though the picture is incomplete, the pieces fit. But as time passes, stories change. Who could have done this? You decide. It Ends With You is clever and compulsive. It challenges preconceptions, makes you second-guess yourself with each chapter, and it holds an uncomfortable mirror up to the way societies and systems treat outsiders.
Exam Nation
Exams, grades, league tables, Ofsted reports. All of them miss the point of school and together they are undermining our whole approach to education. 'An essential read – as entertaining as it is insightful – for anyone who cares about the way we treat young people' Observer What is school for? Drawing on his twenty years as a teacher, hundreds of interviews and his experience on the UK Government's Social Mobility Commission, head teacher Sammy Wright exposes the fundamental misconception at the heart of our education system. By focusing on the grades pupils get in neatly siloed, academic subjects, we end up ranking them and our schools into winners and losers: some pupils are set on a ...
Harry Wright
"Every magnate in the country is indebted to [Harry Wright] for the establishment of baseball as a business, and every patron for fulfilling him with a systematic recreation. Every player is indebted to him for inaugurating an occupation in which he gains a livelihood, and the country at large for adding one more industry to furnish employment"--The Reach Guide (1896). This full-length biography resurrects perhaps baseball's foremost-unrecognized legend, "The Father of Professional Base Ball," Hall of Famer Harry Wright. The son of a premier cricketer, Sam Wright, Harry converted (together with his Hall of Fame brother George) to baseball after emigrating to America from England. Harry Wrigh...
Chance and Choice: My First Thirty Years
Chance and Choice covers the first third of my life (1923-1952) from my childhood in a small German town to my early career as a biologist in London. While concentrating on family and friends, I have tried to convey the spirit of the times - how it felt to be a Jewish girl in Hitler's Germany, an "enemy alien" in war-torn England, and a "girl" scientist in what was then a largely male field. My memoir also recalls some interesting people, the countries I have visited, and the joys and tribulations of my research. The story ends with my marriage to Peter Staple, a young English dentist and doctoral student.
