A perfect example of modern photography, "Budapest - Photography By Richard J Jones" is photographic homage to the city, it's architecture and history. Through the use of textural overlays, grain, contrast and colour, the photographic infra-red and colour digital images have been pushed into a gritty, grungy, abstract artist world, creating surreal landscapes. This will make a great coffee table book, conversation starter or inspiration for budding photographer. For those that love Budapest, this will be a timeless journey through emotion and memories from many of the city's famous landmarks.

Tobias Smollett (1721-71) is best known today as a novelist whereas in the eighteenth century he was primarily regarded as a historian and critic. In Tobias Smollett in the Enlightenment, Richard J. Jones explores the diversity of Smollett's journalistic and literary writings and establishes new connections between Smollett's work and writers of the Scottish Enlightenment. Taking as his focal point Smollett's visit to Nice, between 1763 and 1765, and the account he wrote of it in Travels through France and Italy (1766), Jones argues that Smollett's account should be read as a "pocket encyclopedia" in the tradition of Voltaire, rather than as a conventional "travel narrative." Discussing Smollett's engagement with medicine, fine art, the theater and history, Jones offers a productive juxtaposition of authors, texts and contexts, presenting Smollett as a writer whose Scottish (and particularly Glaswegian) identity informed his involvement in a wider European Enlightenment.
