Why Old Places Matter is the only book that explores the reasons that old places matter to people. Although people often feel very deeply about the old places of their lives, they don’t have the words to express why. This book brings these ideas together in evocative language and with illustrative images for a broad audience. The book reveals the fundamentally important yet under-recognized role old places play in our lives. While many people feel a deep-seated connection to old places -- from those who love old houses, to the millions of tourists who are drawn to historic cities, to the pilgrims who flock to ancient sites throughout the world -- few can articulate why. The book explores t...

Having used her psychic abilities to turn her own life around, journalist and psychic Sherron Mayes explains in this highly practical guide exactly how we can do the same for ourselves. A far cry from new-age, esoteric psychic books, Sherron's approach is fresh, modern and, above all, accessible. She cuts through the mysticism surrounding psychic phenomena, firmly believing that we all have the ability to tap into our innate intuition and apply its extraordinary gifts for success in every aspect of our day-to-day life. Illustrating her points with fascinating stories of her own experiences, and those of others, Sherron shows us specific techniques for strengthening intuition and interpreting the messages that it brings. She gives us simple-to-follow exercises to: use visualisation to strengthen the mind, 'tune in' through psychometry, program our dreams, understand communication from guides and angels, locate our strongest sense (whether clairvoyance, clairaudience or clairsentience). Exhilarating and eye-opening, this book is for anyone who has ever wondered how to make life infinitely successful.

The concept of a circular economy has been gaining increasing attention in recent years. Many of the sources of chemicals we have become reliant on are dwindling and the accumulation of waste products poses a serious environmental problem. Recovering resources from these waste materials can reduce our dependence on less sustainable virgin feedstocks, as well as reducing the quantity of material going to landfill sites. Bringing together a broad range of cross-disciplinary topics on resource recovery this book provides a valuable resource for those working in circular economy research, green chemistry and waste management.

"When David sat down later, he tucked one leg up under him and I noticed that the sole of his shoe was as clean as the day he’d bought it. OK, maybe the shoes were new, but it struck me that he hardly ever sets foot in the street. It’s all hotel, limousines, sterilized airports - the life I was about to lead. I shivered, feeling poised at the top of a rollercoaster about to sweep across the world." In 1978, Sean Mayes toured the world with David Bowie. Travelling first class and performing each night with one of the world’s greatest rock stars at the height of his fame was an amazing experience - fortunately, Sean had the foresight to document it. Here, for the first time in complete b...
