Between Sanity and Madness: An Anthology of Verses
ISBN: 9781514620083 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 34 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This Anthology consists of poems - or 'verses' as I like to call them - taken from four slim volumes and written over a period of six difficult years in my life. One of the poets I have always found most readable is Byron - particularly in his epic poems. In these he airs his innermost feeling and opinions, almost as if he were having a conversation in a room full of people. My verses, although not in any way in his league and certainly not epic, are written in a similar way. The feelings and observations are written in order to connect, sometimes with anger, sometimes with humour, and, in...

Philosophers and Kings: Education for Leadership in Modern England
ISBN: 9780521892551 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Philosophers and Kings examines how the theme of "education for leadership" has developed, changed and declined in English secondary education during the twentieth century. Gary McCulloch examines the contributions of significant educators such as Cyril Norwood, Victor Gollancz and Eric James, and shows how an inherently "elitist" notion could in fact be adapted to form an important part of radical and even socialist educational thought, and share in the discrediting such notions have suffered during the 1980s. In so doing Philosophers and Kings makes an important contribution not only to the...

In 1960, however, it became known that even relatively brief exposure to asbestos can cause mesothelioma, a virulent and lethal cancer.
Yet the bulk of the world's asbestos was mined after 1960. Asbestos usage in many countries continued unabated. This is the first global history of how the asbestos industry and its allies in government, insurance, and medicine defended the product throughout the twentieth century. It explains how mining and manufacture could continue despite overwhelming medical evidence as to... In the early twentieth century, asbestos had a reputation as a lifesaver.
