release date: Nov 12, 2016
Jasmine and Revolution: Tunisia
"Tunisia was the epicenter of a string of revolutionary movements in 2010 and 2011 that spread across the region from Morocco to Bahrain, overthrowing leaders such as Tunisia''s Ben Ali and Egypt''s Mubarak, or bringing about populist changes by the leaders in order to retain power." This book shows a slice of time around the November 23, 2014 election when the people of Tunisia went to the polls to choose the first president since their revolution.

Deckchairs in June

release date: Mar 15, 2022
Deckchairs in June
Tim grew up on an Exmoor farm where an early memory was the harsh winter of 1962/3, when a helicopter was the only way of rescuing a neighbour who had broken his leg. After university in Kent, a summer job assisting on a course for Mexican students led to a career in teaching, which has enabled him to live in several places, work in a variety of schools and publish a couple of text books. He now lives on The Quantock Hills in Somerset with his wife and an almost spaniel. This is his first collection of poems. *** I fell in love with Tim Scott''s poetry at a writing group and, again, when I heard him reading his work on the radio. His writing bristles with honesty and humour. Each poem whispers in your ear about our shared human experience with wit, warmth and a heaped spoonful of irreverence. This book is certain to be a pick-me-up for everyone who loves Ayckbourn, Coward, and who feels the need for some refreshing British humour in these troubled times... Judy Leigh, author of The Age of Misadventure

Putting Social Media to Work 3. 0

release date: Jan 09, 2017
Putting Social Media to Work 3. 0
Social media continues to influence - dominate, even - many aspects of our personal and professional lives. How we communicate and collaborate. How we market and sell our businesses and services. How we engage and communicate with the people that work for us and buy from us. How we consume information. How and where we do the work that we do. In particular, social media has profound implications for the leaders of organisations. We live in an increasingly open and transparent world which offers organisations the chance to rethink some of the old ways of working - but for many leaders and businesses alike, social media is still misunderstood or a missed opportunity. This book is part of a practical series about how to use social media and is targeted at the busy executive or business leader. It will explain why understanding and being social is important for individuals and organisations alike and why, whatever your personal perspective on all things social media, leaders cannot afford to ignore it. The authors share their own experiences of what social has done for them and give you some ideas on how to implement social for the benefit of you, your leadership style and your business. This is the social world. Are you ready?

Cadmon Druce

release date: Mar 09, 2016
Cadmon Druce
By the year 1215, King John had lost most of England''s continental holdings. He taxed and humbled his barons. So enraged were they by John''s excesses that by winter, they had offered England to Louis, King of France, if only he would land an army and take it. This, Louis was about to do. But, King John, the wrong man for the times, stubbornly would not yield. Despite his many faults, John was a tire-less organizer, and with a third of England''s nobility behind him, and in resolute command of his mercenary army, he began to turn the situation around. The barons recognized it was time to change tactics. If battle could not win the day, perhaps assassination could. To little villages hidden away in the Cotswold Mountains, all this grand activity seemed little more than the words of a troubadour song -- until Cadmon Druce, a knight not seen since the Third Crusade, returned home."

The Case for a New America

release date: Jan 01, 2012
The Case for a New America
America as we know it will soon no longer exist. Our jobs are gone. Our wealth is gone. Our prosperity is gone. Corruption, poverty, and unemployment are rampant. Government and corporations are one and the same. We are a bankrupt nation on the verge of a transformational period in our history. "The Case for a New America" is an account of recent political and economic events, using facts, figures, and quotes, making an easy-to-read argument that Americans have lost control of our country, and must now face a decade or longer period of economic Depression. Before we can change anything, we must first understand what it is that needs to be changed. "The Case for a New America" explains the failed monetary system, exposes those who helped create the financial crisis, the corruption surrounding the 2008 bailout, Obama''s presidency, the imminent collapse of our entitlement programs, the impending energy crisis and finally, what we need to do as Americans to take control of our nation again and lead ourselves to a New America.
