'Vivid and exciting' The Times WINNER OF THE PRIX DU MASQUE She was found hanging in a dingy London bedsit with a blood orange in her mouth. Diane Heybridge, a young woman without a past or much of a future, has captured in death the compassion denied her in life. For the prosecution, this seeming suicide is nothing more than a bungled killing and a disgusted public looks to Court 2 of the Old Bailey for justice. Her callous, jilted partner Brent Stainsby stands accused of her murder and he's turned to the maverick legal team William Benson and Tess de Vere to defend him. However, as the trial unfolds it soon becomes clear that there is far more to Diane Heybridge than meets the eye. She wasn't the weak and downtrodden victim now being presented to the jury. She was capable of a sophisticated form of vengeance. By the same token, Brent Stainsby isn't who he seems to be either. He's hiding a motive for murder unknown to the police and may well be playing a deadly game of poker with the judicial process. What began as a simple trial rapidly turns into a complex search for the truth beyond the confines of the courtroom...

One of the earliest documented Scottish song collectors actually to go 'into the field' to gather his specimens, was the Highlander Joseph Macdonald. Macdonald emigrated in 1760 - contemporaneously with the start of James Macpherson's famous but much disputed Ossian project - and it fell to the Revd. Patrick Macdonald to finish and subsequently publish his younger brother's collection. Karen McAulay traces the complex history of Scottish song collecting, and the publication of major Highland and Lowland collections, over the ensuing 130 years. Looking at sources, authenticity, collecting methodology and format, McAulay places these collections in their cultural context and traces links with contemporary attitudes towards such wide-ranging topics as the embryonic tourism and travel industry; cultural nationalism; fakery and forgery; literary and musical creativity; and the move from antiquarianism and dilettantism towards an increasingly scholarly and didactic tone in the mid-to-late Victorian collections. Attention is given to some of the performance issues raised, either in correspondence or in the paratexts of published collections; and the narrative is interlaced with references to contemporary literary, social and even political history as it affected the collectors themselves. Most significantly, this study demonstrates a resurgence of cultural nationalism in the late nineteenth century.

In a world where many are disillusioned with the highly drug-dependent medical establishment, integrative medicine is gaining popularity because of its more holistic approach. Holism by definition implies greater than the sum of its parts, and is a response to reductionism, especially biological reductionism in medicine. The holistic model widely accepted in integrative healthcare today is a biopsychosocial model that aims to treat the whole person. It is a systems hierarchy model that includes the universe to a cell particle, so one’s understanding of holism will be reflected in what one considers relevant. To a pulmonologist, holism might mean the whole respiratory system, to a geneticist, holism might mean the whole family history, but...who is treating the whole “person”? This groundbreaking book sheds light on the limitations of integrative healthcare in exploring the full potential of homeopathy in treating the whole person. It argues that we don’t need a new approach, definition, or understanding of holism. We sometimes just need to step out of the systems hierarchy model of the reductionist paradigm itself to get a larger view, and redefine the boundaries of what constitutes the wholeness of a person. With a clear and engaging writing style, the book takes readers on a journey through the history and evolution of the concept of “whole”, and presents a compelling case for the adoption of an anthroposophic paradigm as a more comprehensive and effective approach to holism, healing, and homeopathy. Whether you are a homeopath, a healthcare practitioner, a patient, or simply interested in holistic medicine, this is a must-read book that will challenge your assumptions and expand your understanding of what it means to treat the whole person.

Henry James' 'The Complete Works: Novels, Short Stories, Plays, Essays, Memoirs and Letters' is a literary treasure trove that encapsulates the full breadth of James' prolific and influential career. Known for his intricate character studies and psychological depth, James' works often explore themes of privilege, morality, and the complexities of human relationships. This comprehensive collection showcases his mastery of both long-form and short-form fiction, as well as his insightful essays and poignant memoirs. James' elegant prose and nuanced storytelling make this collection a must-read for any lover of classic literature. Set against the backdrop of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, James' works continue to resonate with readers today for their timeless exploration of the human experience. Henry James was a celebrated American-British author whose keen observations of society and intricate narratives secured his place as one of the greatest novelists in literary history. His extensive travels and exposure to different cultures greatly influenced his writing, leading him to create rich and complex characters that navigate the complexities of life and love. James' nuanced exploration of human psychology and social dynamics set him apart as a master of the psychological novel. I highly recommend 'The Complete Works' to readers looking to immerse themselves in the beautifully crafted world of Henry James. This collection offers a comprehensive showcase of James' literary genius and insight into the human condition, making it a valuable addition to any bookshelf.

Frist published in 1997, this book aims to answer if European ‘post-national’ citizenship provide a practical opening and a conceptual challenge to cope with the diverse and close-circuiting crises of national European social models? What then might a new sphere of European social inclusion look like? This book also provided the first attempt to go well beyond ‘national gridlock’. Old solutions will no longer do. Is new land in sight? With monetary integration almost implemented this is a highly relevant exploration of a central complementary ‘common currency’ in Europe’s future.
