That Option No Longer Exists - Britain 1974-76 (Paperback): John Medhurst That Option No Longer Exists - Britain 1974-76 (Paperback)
John Medhurst
R379 Discovery Miles 3 790 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

It is time to look afresh at the 1970s. It was not a grey decade of decline, defeat and power blackouts. Bursting with cultural experimentation, sexual liberation and industrial militancy, the 1970s saw the ruling elites of Britain challenged at every level, most especially by a Labour left led by Tony Benn which aimed to effect a "fundamental and irreversible shift in the balance of wealth and power in favour of working people." That Option No Longer Exists reveals a hidden history - how Benn and the left tried to reform British industry, to introduce democracy in the workplace and overturn the power of Finance; and how Whitehall, the security services and the City fought back, paving the way for Thatcher to re-establish the rule of money and the markets. Britain almost took a different path in 1974-76 to that of massive wealth inequality, the dominance of the City, and the slow death of the welfare state. This is the story of a struggle within government almost forgotten, and of a tragic turning point in British history.

The Medical Discoveries Of Edward Bach Physician (Paperback): Nora Weeks The Medical Discoveries Of Edward Bach Physician (Paperback)
Nora Weeks
R324 R261 Discovery Miles 2 610 Save R63 (19%) Ships in 9 - 15 working days

In 1912 Edward Bach qualified as a medical doctor and embarked upon a career which not only had a profound effect on medical science, but brought to ordinary people the world over, a simple, safe and effective system of healing. Dr. Bach made a detailed study of bacteriology, immunology and homeopathy and found a clear connection between chronic disease and negative mental attitudes. It was the relationship between mind and body which formed the basis of his further research and as he became increasingly convinced that emotional harmony was the key to good health, he was determined to find a simple, non-invasive and harmless method of healing which could be used safely by everyone. The Medical Discoveries of Edward Bach tells how Dr. Bach's work developed, from his childhood hopes and dreams of a healthy society, to the discovery of a complete system of 38 natural remedies which address all aspects of human nature, emotional outlook and personality. Edward Bach was an eminent physician whose remarkable contribution to medicine, healing and humanity has yet to be fully realised.

Designed for secondary school and college student research, this work is a readable history and ready-reference guide to the Holocaust based on the most recent scholarship. It provides the reader with an overview of Nazi Germany's attempt to exterminate world Jewry. Fischel, a leading authority on the Holocaust, combines narrative description, analytical essays, a timeline of events, lengthy biographical profiles, and the text of key primary documents relating to the Nazi plan for the "Final Solution" to help students gain a comprehensive understanding of the causative factors and major events and personalities that shaped the Nazi genocide. A glossary of key terms, selected tables, and an annotated bibliography of recommended further reading will aid student research. Topical essays designed for the student and general reader provide an accessible historical overview and analysis of Hitler and the Jews, the racial state, genocide, the "Final Solution," and resistance to the Nazis. Fischel explains the factors that led to the Holocaust, the implementation of the decision to exterminate the Jews, the response of the free world and the Papacy, the role of "righteous gentiles" who risked their lives to save Jews, and the resistance of the Jews to their fate under the Nazis. Biographical sketches provide valuable information on the key personalities among both the Nazis and Allies, and the text of key primary documents brings the Nazis blatant plan for genocide to stark reality. In providing valuable information, analysis, and ready-reference features, this work is a one-stop resource on the Holocaust for students, teachers, library media specialists, and interested readers.

If you were to magically travel inside a honey bee colony it would be like entering another world, one that is amazingly cooperative, organised and energetic. IN THE TREES, HONEYBEES is a new picture book that takes children on a visual journey inside the hive. It hums with life! See thousands of worker bees - each one doing her job. Some are making wax, some are feeding the hungry brood, some are storing sweet honey. Can you see the combs, filled with honey and pollen? And there's the queen, laying eggs. IN THE TREES, HONEYBEES is an excellent introduction to the insects on which about one third of our foods depends for pollination. Like a smoothly running town, a honey bee colony is a remarkable place. And because honeybee colonies have been plagued with disease recently, we are reminded of the important role bees play in our lives. A book ideally suited to capture the interest of young readers - highly recommended as a way to share both the fascinating lives and the importance to humans of honey bees. Ages 3-8
