A stunning follow-up to Animetrics, this innovative 'colour by numbers' sticker book contains 12 striking pictures of animals, sea creatures, famous landmarks and scenes to complete. The numbered shapes on each page can be filled with corresponding stickers to create beautiful, intricate artworks. Projects include a spectacular seahorse, a magical unicorn and a breathtaking Statue of Liberty. Featuring over 1,400 geometric stickers, it's the ultimate sticker-by-numbers challenge for children and adults alike.

Three topics dominate discussions of the global environment: pollution; the consequences of the affluent running ever faster through finite resources; and the growing tensions between rich and poor as a third of humanity continues to live and die in desperate poverty. In this exceptional book Barbara Ward (co-author with Rene Dubos of the bestselling Only One Earth) refused to see these processes as inevitable. It describes new technologies for recycling waste, for energy, for ?getting more or less?, linking them to ordinary people's working lives. It also suggests a strategy for meeting the basic needs of the disadvantaged, and shows how the vast inequalities between countries can be reduced. This perceptive survey of policies outlines a planetary bargain between the world's nations that would guarantee individual freedom from poverty and keep our shared biosphere in good working order. Originally published in 1988

Although many educators and curriculum specialists tout the values of using discussion in the classroom, it isn't always clear exactly what discussion is or how it impacts its participants, particularly the females in the classrooms where discussion is used as part of the teaching methods. The voices of students, especially females, are rarely heard in the research studies that examine classroom practices, and this study attempts to amplify those voices in order to understand how they experience discussion as a classroom practice and what lies behind their reasons for speaking or not speaking during classroom activities ostensibly devised to encourage them to participate. This qualitative study uses participation observation, teacher interviews, and interviews with the five students selected for the study to gain understanding into the reasons behind silence in the classroom. The study concludes with a discussion of the implications researchers and educators my draw from its results.

It is so often said that an understanding of the present relies upon an understanding of the past; in the present age the truth of this is perhaps less patent than formerly. Never before has the world been so divided by conflicting ideologies, never has so much depended upon the finding, not, perhaps, of a reconciliation of the ideologies, but of a means of coexistence. The very continuation of the human race would seem to hang upon a solution of this problem. Through all these lectures runs a single thread, the inevitability of the freedom of man, even if that freedom is liberty for self-destruction. All history has shown that domination of man by man must in the end bring revolt, passive or active, when the right of the individual or the group triumphs over suppression . . . The past may no longer be a certain guide to the future; let us hope that in this one respect history will be the signpost, and that intolerance and exploitation and inhumanity of man to man may some day vanish from the earth. -Kwame Nkrumah, from the Foreword

An unofficial report commissioned by the Secretary-General of the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment.

Three topics dominate discussions of the global environment: pollution; the consequences of the affluent running ever faster through finite resources; and the growing tensions between rich and poor. Barbara Ward refused to see these processes as inevitable. Here, she describes new technologies for recycling waste, for energy, for 'getting more or less', linking them to ordinary people's working lives. She suggests a strategy for meeting the basic needs of the disadvantaged, and shows how the vast inequalities between countries can be reduced.

"Wondrously lucid, richly informed and trenchantly argued, tough-minded but never failing to assume that intelligence and will can move human society forward. . . . Miss Ward is at her scintillating best in analyzing just how difficult it is for the rich and the poor nations to reach rapport. . . . We could be a good deal more certain [of the future] if Americans would stop feeling overwhelmed by the world long enough to read this wise and inspiriting book." - Eric F. Goldman, New York Times Book Review, front-page review

"If, as I believe, there is more real security for Americans in understanding than in H-bombs, Barbara Ward has done us an inestimable service with this absoring, enlightening book. I strongly urge my fellow countrymen to read it, for they will find in it essential information on the state of the world and essential inspiration to do what needs to be done. The ideas presented here are stimulating and provocative and illuminating. The ideas are new and they make the news more understandable. And they suggest a policy for the West. A rewarding book . . . exceedingly important." - Adlai E. Stevenson
