A multi-disciplinary investigation of the links between people and animals, in reality and representation. Domestic animals played a range of roles in the imaginative world of medieval Icelanders: from partners in settlement and household allies, to violent offenders, foster-kin and surrogate wives, they were vital and effective members of the multispecies communities established from the ninth century onwards. This book examines the domestic animals of early Iceland in their physical and textual contexts, through detailed analysis of the spaces and places of the Icelandic farm and farming landscape, and textual sources such as The Book of Settlements, the earliest Icelandic laws, and various episodes from the Sagas and Tales of Icelanders. Taking a multidisciplinary approach to animal-human relationships, it sees animals not solely as symbols, metaphors, or objects, but as subjects in affective relationships with their human co-settlers who become the focus of intense exploration, delight, anxiety and condemnation in later textual narratives. By inviting readers to question how these sources form, embrace, or reject animal-human relationships, it provides a resource for understanding these archaeological sites and textual narratives differently: as products of multispecies communities in which animals and humans lived, worked, and died together.

The Pied Piper Principle: Lead, and They Will Follow is a practical and thoughtful approach to leadership techniques that will provide a basis to build or enhance your present methods of management.

Set in North-eastern Nigeria, this tale tells of Kif and Kumba who were asked not to stop by pools or trees. Out of exhaustion, they ignored their grand-mother's advice and were saved by their horse, Ebony, from being bitten by a dangerous black snake. In the process of trying to bury the snake, they dug up the ten-thousand-year old Punaku Treasure. Trouble started when Kif and Kumba were kidnapped, and the treasure in stolen.
