Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Six classic ghostly tales in the tradition of M. R. James
This delightful collection of classic ghost stories was the only
foray into the world of supernatural fiction made by the renowned
British architect Sir Thomas Graham Jackson. Jackson was born in
1835 and rose to become one of the most distinguished architects of
his generation. He spent much of his career working within the
academic environment of Oxford, England and his work on many
college projects is enduring and highly regarded. The
internationally famous 'Bridge of Sighs' over New College Lane is
notable among them. Perhaps it was his long association with the
world of academia that fostered a love of the 'Jamesian' style of
the ghostly tale. In any event his own literary efforts-executed
late in life at the age of 80- fall satisfyingly within that
tradition. This concise book is now very rare and among collectors
of supernatural fiction is a highly desirable find on the
antiquarian book market. This special Leonaur edition is therefore
an essential addition to the bookshelves of all enthusiasts.
Available as a paperback as a collectors hardcover edition with a
full cloth binding, head bands, gold foil embossed spine and dust
jacket.

of dementia care at a level appropriate to health and social care
students, as well as providing an update to experienced
practitioners. Authors come from a variety of backgrounds including
nursing, psychiatry, medicine, psychology and allied health
professions. There is a good mix of content from experienced new
authors, academics and practitioners. The book offers: a
comprehensive list of contributors from different disciplines input
from people living with dementia and their family carers relevant
research to inform practice case examples to illustrate and inform
the text. While directed primarily at a nursing and social care
readership, the book also provides a readable general text
appropriate for all involved in dementia care. It is written by
expert practitioners in the field, many of whom are leaders in
practice-based research. It incorporates the expertise of
representatives of Alzheimer Scotland, but also includes accounts
of people living with dementia, families, and carers, giving the
reader a unique insight into the disease.
Coronary artery disease is the most common cause of morbidity in
the developed and developing world. In the acute situation, in
contrast to the stable presentation, there is a need for urgency
with clear benefits from intervention. However it is imperative
that risks are assessed and addressed as part of the long term
strategy. Preventing acute coronary syndromes is more important
than dealing with them.
This concise, practical pocketbook opens with the background and
mechanisms leading to the acute event and how an understanding of
the pathophysiology can direct the overall management and not just
the acute presentation. The books intention is to highlight the
practical aspects of management and establish straightforward
management plans. It therefore looks at the syndromes via a team
approach to address all of the issues and optimise care.

The sixth amendment to the Directive on Administrative Cooperation
in the field of taxation (DAC6) and mandatory disclosure regimes
(MDRs) in many jurisdictions have led to a large number of
professionals potentially being required to disclose information in
relation to their clients' arrangements. The authors analyse the
operation of the various automatic exchange of information regimes
introduced in the last five years, including the OECD common
reporting standards, DAC6 and MDRs, setting them in their
historical context. They focus on the guidance offered by the Irish
and UK tax authorities with reference to other guidance in Europe
and beyond, where appropriate.
Sir Thomas Graham Jackson (1835-1924) was one of the most
distinguished architects of his generation, particularly renowned
for his work in Oxford for the University and the Military College.
Jackson was also a prolific author, producing numerous books
relating to the history of architecture, often illustrated with his
own sketches. Originally published in 1923, this book is formed
from a series of personal accounts describing experiences during
the author's extensive travels. The text also contains
illustrations by Jackson from a wide variety of locations. This is
a highly readable volume that will be of value to anyone with an
interest in travel writing and architectural history.
