Why are geese in a gaggle? Are lions actually proud? And do crows
deserve their murderous moniker? Collective nouns are one of the
most bizarre and baffling aspects of the English language, and this
absorbing book tells the stories of these evocative phrases,
exploring and explaining the etymology behind them. Each collective
noun summons up the animal or event it describes. But where did
they come from? 'A parliament of owls', for example, seems to have
its origins in the 1950s children's classic The Chronicles of
Narnia in which C.S. Lewis references a phrase from Chaucer, 'the
parliament of fowls'. Lewis' version changed 'fowls' to 'owls' and
due to the international success of his books it caught on and is
now recognised as dictionary compilers as the 'correct' term for a
group of owls. Perfect for any history or language buff, this is an
entertaining and fascinating look at many of the bizarre phrases
which have stood the test of time.

We won't make progress by doing the wrong things righter". The
Green Book challenges current disregard for the inter-relationship
between the State and the citizen in nurturing sustainable
communities where love and care are valued more than profits. The
format of stories, analyses, poems, verses and questions challenges
and entertains. In Much More to Life than Services (2010) Bob
Rhodes invited readers to consider the often unintended and
destabilizing consequences that result from outsourcing so many
aspects of our lives, and particularly those associated with caring
for each other from the cradle to the grave, to public institutions
and businesses. More than 40 years as an innovator, practitioner,
thinker and leader in the community care field had caused him to
doubt the sanity of converting care into commodities. Much More to
Life was littered with inspiring stories and advice about how to
secure good lives", rather than simple survival, in the face of
disability. The Green Book is very different but complementary.
Through stories, analyses, poems, sometimes humorous verses,
parodies and songs it sets out to encourage readers to think about
what really matters and how they might want to order their lives in
accordance with those priorities. It asks questions about how we
are socialised or, as Bob provocatively often poses, 'groomed' to
accept and even support expectations of compliance and
subordination that may not be in the interests of ourselves or
those we love. Implicitly it challenges us to give a little time,
now and then, to musing upon the meaning of our lives, the
importance of our relationships, and, perhaps, the society we
aspire to. It is a call to action. Bob's writing is bolstered by
thought-provoking contributions from LivesThroughFriends stalwarts,
Colin Campbell and Ken Davies.
