The gripping, jaw-dropping rise and fall of Sir Philip Green, the self-styled 'king of the high street'.
Sir Philip Green is no stranger to scandal. He was once hailed one of Britain's best businessmen and had prime ministers and supermodels on speed dial. But his reputation came crashing down when Oliver Shah uncovered the truth behind his doomed BHS deal.
The collapse of British Home Stores left 11,000 employees without jobs and put 20,000 people's pensions at risk. Green eventually paid £363m towards the company's £571m pension deficit, but it wasn't long before he found himself in trouble again. In October 2018, Green was named as the business figure at the heart of Britain's #MeToo scandal. With accusations of sexual and racial harassment flooding the press, and with Topshop's pension deficit rising to almost double the figure that toppled BHS, can the retail tycoon survive yet another scandal?
In Damaged Goods, Oliver Shah, the award-winning journalist who first broke the BHS story, shines a light on Green's past and his uncertain future; this is the extraordinary account of the retail magnate Sir Philip Green's fall from grace.

A comprehensive text that looks at respiratory disorders in
general, but concentrates on those that are more prevalent in
tropical regions. The text is extremely well-illustrated and
provides a comprehensive view of different respiratory diseases. A
highlight of the book is the discussion on the threat of pulmonary
tuberculosis and its unsolved challenges. The epidemiology, the
subtle variation in clinical presentation, and the natural history
of respiratory diseases in regional contexts have been clearly
emphasized. This second edition has been thoroughly revised and
updated. Prevailing concepts in lung cancer, asthma, interstitial
lung disease, and several other diseases have been discussed at
length. The section on newer diagnostic aids involving genetic and
molecular biology, has been extensively revised. Every chapter of
every section is illustrated wherever necessary with high-quality
images contributing to a better understanding of the text.

Horror in which a clinical trial at a remote facility goes terribly
wrong. Among those who sign up to test ProSyntrex's latest drug
Pro9 are Adam (Aneurin Barnard), Joni (Alex Reid), Carmen (Skye
Lourie) and Jed (Oliver Coleman). The trial is highly secret, with
no-one, including the staff who administer injections, aware of who
is receiving the drug and who is in the placebo group. Shortly
after the trial begins it becomes clear that something has gone
wrong. There are unexplained disappearances, bizarre silhouettes
and screaming from behind locked doors. Locked inside the facility,
unaware of the true nature of events, the surviving patients and
staff must band together to try and find a way out of the
nightmare.
