The Tomorrow People - Prime Factors

release date: Mar 27, 2025
The Tomorrow People - Prime Factors
When Carol senses what she believes to be a new Tomorrow Person breaking out, she’s excited at the possibility of a new addition to the team. However, when she, John, Stephen and Kenny discover that the person in question is the prime suspect in a series of mysterious disappearances in modern day Whitechapel, it raises dangerous questions. Is it possible for a Tomorrow Person to break out without the Prime Barrier that prevents them from killing deliberately? Or is there something even darker at work?

The Economic Modernisation of France

release date: Jan 26, 2022
The Economic Modernisation of France
First published in 1975, The Economic Modernisation of France presents the study of economic developments in France between 1730 and 1880. This period is conceived as one of growth in production within pre-industrial economic structures, succeeded from 1840-50 by rapid structural transformation and the creation of an industrial economy. Divided into four major parts it discusses themes like communication and the development of commerce; agriculture; industrial development; and population. Rich in primary sources, this will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of French history, European history, economic history, and history in general.

A Social History of Nineteenth-Century France

release date: Dec 24, 2021
A Social History of Nineteenth-Century France
First published in 1987, A Social History of Nineteenth-Century France argues that the social impact of the French Revolution has been greatly exaggerated, and that in 1815 France was still predominantly a rural and pre-industrial society. The revolution introduced only very limited changes in social structures and relationships – the daily lives of ordinary people remained virtually unchanged. A much more decisive turning point in French history, the author suggests, was the period of structural change in economy and society, which began in the mid nineteenth century. The first part of the book looks at many changes in the economy and their effect on living standards and social environment. The second part identifies the social groups which make up French society and provides detailed analyses of their lifestyles and social relationships. Part Three considers the influence of such key institutions as churches, schools, and the state. Drawing on an exceptionally wide range of primary sources, this is likely to be the definitive overview of French society for many years to come and will be of interest to researchers of French history and European history.

Religious Renewal in France, 1789-1870

release date: Dec 04, 2017
Religious Renewal in France, 1789-1870
This book provides a study of the manner in which the Roman Catholic Church in France responded to successive revolutions between 1789 and 1870 as well as to the cultural upheaval associated with accelerating socio-economic change. It focuses on the Church as an institution engaged in a dynamic process of (re)Christianization and determined, as the only repository of the true faith of Jesus Christ, to fortify belief , and to combat the ‘Satanic’ forces of moral corruption and revolutionary chaos and create a ‘counter society’, the société parfaite. Discussion of the Church as an institution in crisis, of the recruitment, instruction and mind-sets of its bishops, parish clergy, and the members of religious orders, of its hierarchical structures and internal discipline, and of the need to compensate for the losses suffered during a period of revolutionary upheaval, provides the basis for an exploration of its evolving doctrine(s) and sense of purpose; for an assessment of the pastoral care provided to parish communities; and of the leadership and moral qualities of the clergy; before final consideration of the reception of the religious message(s).

The Modernization of Rural France

release date: Jul 06, 2017
The Modernization of Rural France
This book, first published in 1983, is a major contribution to our understanding of how and why French rural peasant society became modernised by radical changes in the communications system – in particular, the coming of the railways. The author argues that complex changes in the transport systems, and their effects on agricultural market structures, finally brought traditional French rural civilisation to an end. With the extension of commercialisation, and the widening of horizons, new economic and social structures – and changed attitudes – rapidly came into being. Writing as an economic historian, the author has adopted an interdisciplinary approach to this study which incorporates economic, sociological, historical and geographical methods and data.

Documents on the Second French Empire, 1852-1870

release date: Jul 20, 2015
Documents on the Second French Empire, 1852-1870
In December 1851, Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte seized power in a coup d''état, believing he was destined to rule France and restore her to her former glory. He was committed to the modernisation of France through significant infrastructure investment and urban renewal. Although he felt pressured to make concessions to liberal, clerical and republican opposition from 1860, he remained determined to retain substantial power over foreign and defence policy. This would prove to be his undoing. In 1870, the Empire created by a military coup ended with a catastrophic military defeat, dramatically changing the balance of power in Europe. Documents on the Second French Empire presents students with a range of primary sources, covering the political, social and economic history of the era. The documents in each chapter are contextualised by an introduction from the author, and are grouped by theme, making them easy to navigate and analyse.

Successful Christianity

release date: May 23, 2008
Successful Christianity
The world is full of religions, espousing mans ideas of how to get to their particular gods or goddesses and to gain their favor. These people seem to be in a continuous state of failure. Successful Christianity explores the Christian faith, in which there are those also who struggle to be on top of things in life. This book gives multiple avenues of overcoming what is seen by some as a persons fate in life. From failures in finances to poor health, I point out that there has to be a change in our thinking if we are to ever be successful in our walk with the Lord. Proposing that God wants us to be successful in life, Scripture is called upon to point out the various avenues in which we please God by our faith and actions that back up that faith which will bring success. Our focus on a growing relationship with our Lord and His Word I am convinced is the avenue of success for the Christian. That is my experience and I pray you find it true also.
