This book explores the murky world of Mother and Baby groups. Nowadays, these groups may be called Parents and Baby groups, but don't be deceived - this is still a mother land. This hilarious book is about me and my one-year-old daughter as we attend a variety of children's playgroups for the first time. Up until 14 months, Betsy spent her life in my backpack as we walked over some very big hills. Some days, if she was particularly well behaved, I would take her to a playground. She never touched an iPad or Kindle until she was at least 18-months-old - that's how much of a great dad I am. But in Autumn 2013 we decided to infiltrate the women's world of playgroups, on a mission to see if standing in a room full of mothers really was as terrifying as I was letting myself think it was. This fear of mad mothers saw me face my own prejudices and fears and even saw me taking advice from a Californian psychologist. He tried to blame my parents. Stay At Home Dads Are Not Welcome Here is a book which documents my brave journey from stealth walker to reluctant talker and, through research from around the world, tells how playgroups (child care and pre-school) are not necessarily the best thing for your child.

Brash, flash in-your-face photography exposing smokers in their last days of smoking indoors. This 8.5ins x 11ins book is packed full of flash-lit images of smouldering cigarettes. In uncompromising style, documentary photographer Garry Cook turns his attentions on smokers. With stark brutality he documents their final days as free smokers, before the ban on smoking in public came in to force in England on July 1, 2007. A 64-page full colour photo book. These photographs show smokers in bingo halls, pubs, clubs and nightclubs before the ban came in to force in the summer of 2007. The photographer then followed the smokers as they were forced to go outside. Shot across England, from London to Liverpool and including Blackpool, Manchester and Preston. Five years after the ban, these images offer a nostalgic look at a way of living never to be repeated.

Do you judge people by the way they look? Garry Cook's Outsiders is a series of interviews and portrait photographs with the unique, unusual and misunderstood. This collection of profiles examines how we judge others through prejudice, appearance and ignorance. Travelling across several continents for this project, Cook has compiled a fascinating insight into human experience and behaviours, while also covering major social issues including religion, war, sex and paedophilia. Quotes from Outsiders: 'They came at us with spears crying 'argghhhhh ' 'People see a Muslim woman and you can see all the word association flashing through their minds: Bin Laden, terrorism.' 'My Thai wife paid someone to push me off a third story balcony.' 'I was on fire but I couldn't see much, the flash had burned my eyes. Just thought I'm going to die.' 'If you're going to dedicate your life to serving yourself, and your lust, God hates you. That's what the Bible says.' 'I don't regret the relationships, only the sexual part of it.' 'Some of my friends in Israel, they don't see the Palestinians as humans.'
