London, 1938. Europe is on the brink of war. And in England Anthony Eden''s resignation as Prime Minister has rocked the tottering foundations of the country. So not much attention is paid when Michael Hensman, Member of Parliament for Crayshott East, leaves Westminster for a short holiday with his wife - and vanishes without trace. But Fleet Street journalist Simon Darrell is sent to investigate. His unorthodox methods get him taken off the case. But he decides to do some unofficial investigating of his own... After people connected with Hensman are found dead, it is clear that something sinister is going on. And before long Simon finds a disturbing connection between the murders and the threat of Nazi Germany. He is soon caught up in an ugly conspiracy that involves political intrigue, corruption, blackmail, death - and the fate of an entire nation.... And he must Run A Little Faster to stay alive.

The Complete Private Pilot leads students through the study material for the private pilot license, including all the aeronautical knowledge requirements for the license and rating. This book, with study material for the instrument and commercial pilot licenses, augments basic subjects with more advanced topics, such as instrument flight rules (IFR) systems, procedures and regulations, and details about radio navigation, flight plans, and cockpit organisation.

Harvard psychologist Howard Gardner has been acclaimed as the most influential educational theorist since John Dewey. His ideas about intelligence and creativity - explicated in such bestselling books as Frames of Mind and Multiple Intelligences (over 200,000 copies in print combined) - have revolutionized our thinking. In his groundbreaking 1983 book Frames of Mind , Howard Gardner first introduced the theory of multiple intelligences, which posits that intelligence is more than a single property of the human mind. That theory has become widely accepted as one of the seminal ideas of the twentieth century and continues to attract attention all over the world. Now in Intelligence Reframed , Gardner provides a much-needed report on the theory, its evolution and revisions. He offers practical guidance on the educational uses of the theory and responds to the critiques leveled against him. He also introduces two new intelligences (existential intelligence and naturalist intelligence) and argues that the concept of intelligence should be broadened, but not so absurdly that it includes every human virtue and value. Ultimately, argues Gardner, possessing a basic set of seven or eight intelligences is not only a unique trademark of the human species, but also perhaps even a working definition of the species. Gardner also offers provocative ideas about creativity, leadership, and moral excellence, and speculates about the relationship between multiple intelligences and the world of work in the future.

Howard Gardner is, in the words of the New York Times Book Review, "one of America''s most interesting psychologists.
