Often featuring in lists of the world's best walks, the South West
Coast Path is 630 miles long, and passes through two World Heritage
Sites. This guide to the path is a modern take on the traditional
(turn right at the stile, and follow the footpath to the bridge)
guidebook: instead of telling readers where to go step by step,
Stephen gives fantastic ideas for what to do as they travel along
the path. There are so many amazing adventures and places to visit
(some 'secret' and some well known) and this guide highlights 1,000
of them, all situated along the route. After an Introduction giving
a history of the path and the stories of the people who made it
(Why is this path the most popular National Trail? Why is it so
closely associated with tales of King Arthur? When is the best time
to visit?) the bulk of the book focuses on all the amazing things
you can do along the path itself. It is divided into regions, with
over 70 adventures/highlights per region: West Somerset, North
Devon, Torridge, North Cornwall, South Cornwall, South Hams,
Torbay, Teignbridge, East Devon, West Dorset, Weymouth and
Portland, Purbeck and Poole. Each region is introduced with a 'Best
For' section, with the ten best places for secret swims, tidal
woods, fossils etc. It then highlights where to go, each place
accompanied by basic directions, a short description and
postcode/map coordinates. Readers can use this guide whilst walking
the path in either direction, and at home when planning - Stephen
Neale's engaging writing and beautiful photography make this book a
joy to spend time with.
Emotional Intelligence Coaching examines the vital role emotions
and habits play in performance. Emotional intelligence can help
leaders and coaches recognize how attitudes - both their own and
those of the people they coach - prevent individuals from reaching
their potential. Replacing these with more useful feelings and
thoughts can provide a powerful means of improving performance.
This book explains the principles of emotional intelligence and how
these relate to coaching for performance. It includes practical
activities for those seeking to identify and adapt their behaviour
in order to achieve more. Never before have emotional intelligence
and coaching been brought together in this way to help you develop
your own and other people's performance.
The definitive guidebook to the entire 3,000-mile length of the new
England Coast Path. For anyone planning a trip to the coast or a UK
summer holiday, the new England Coast Path national trail is a
hugely exciting prospect, and this guidebook shows you how to make
the most of every single glorious mile. Environmentalists,
volunteers, campaigners, land owners and politicians all came
together to create this 'ninth wonder of the world', and from the
opening of the path in 2020 onwards, anyone has been able to walk
and wild camp along the entire 3,000-mile length of the English
coast. It's a fantastic opportunity for all walkers, campers, fans
of the coast and the outdoors. Stephen Neale has spent many happy
months walking, camping and surveying the path, and from that
experience has written a fantastically detailed and rich guidebook
covering the route itself, along with everything from the best
places to swim, hunt for fossils and eat seafood to hidden away
beaches and canoeing spots. Fully updated for its second edition,
with 100 extra adventures from the newly opened sections of the
path and spectacular new aerial photography, the book is divided up
into the 16 coastal counties and features 1,100 places to see, camp
and explore around the coast. Each place has map coordinates and
basic directions from the path, allowing walkers to either visit
specific places or link highlights together, walking between them
along the path. The England Coast Path represents what makes
England so great: a little bit mad, a little bit proud, and the
lucky host to one of the most spectacular and wild coastlines in
the world. With this book you too can join the adventure.
From getting back to nature with a tent, some matches and a few
litres of bottled water, to enjoying a pub dinner and camping out
in the garden afterwards, this book shows how to get stuck into
wild camping in all its forms. Beautiful wildernesses; tiny
budgets; environmentally-friendly... What's not to like? There's an
idea that wild camping is illegal in Britain, but it isn't - you
just need to know the rules and where to go. This guide will open
up this amazing experience for all, covering: - what is wild
camping and why bother? - different types (bivvying, tenting,
hammocking, on the water) - what the law says (Scotland, England,
Northern Ireland, Wales, Ireland, EU, waterways) - how many of the
largest landowners in the UK are actively encouraging wild camping
- getting started (vital equipment, where to go, when to go,
safety) - drinking water and foraging for food The majority of the
book features the best places to go in England, Wales, Ireland and
Scotland, along with stories, tips, helpful maps and inspiring
photos. The new edition includes a Foreword by Ed Stafford, as well
as a completely new chapter introducing the exciting new English
Coastal Path, opening 2020 after years of campaigning. This fully
updated guide will give readers the knowledge and the inspiration
to escape the noise, clutter and stress of day to day life and go
wild.
Planning a fabulous staycation in the UK? This stylish and
inspiring book contains all the information campers need to make
the most of the wonderful waterside locations throughout the UK and
Ireland. Covering all kinds of camping (caravan, campsite and
wild), the book starts by showing how to plan your trip, what gear
to take and how to get stuck into all the fantastic water-based
activities on offer, such as sailing, kayaking, angling, surfing
and wild swimming. Tip boxes, top 10 features and gorgeous photos
combine to give readers all the knowledge and inspiration they need
to get out there, whether they're on their own, part of a family or
with a group of friends. The main part of the guide is organised by
region, but also searchable by activity. Each region has an
overview, and within it the best sites to visit, with useful
information (best times of year to go, activities on offer,
facilities, cost), advice on most attractive pitches, contact
details and photos. There is a huge variety of sites here, all with
something unique to offer, and helpful maps plot each one clearly.
With a Foreword by One Man and his Campervan's Martin Dorey, this
is the essential guidebook for all campers, showing how it really
is possible to pitch up in paradise. This 2nd edition is thoroughly
updated throughout, featuring new campsites and photography.

This wide-ranging text is one of the first to look in detail at
some of the principal genres, cycles and trends in Hollywood's
output during the last two decades. It includes analysis of such
films as Sense and Sensibility, Grifters, The Mask, When Harry Met
Sally, Pocahontas, Titanic, Basic Instinct, Coppola's Dracula, and
Malcolm X.
In 1905, Bertrand Russell argued that certain logical puzzles
are solved if definite descriptions are treated as quantified
expressions rather than referential expression, as Frege had
thought. Since then, philosophers and, more recently, linguists
have debated the relevance of this paradigm to the study of the
semantics of natural language. In Descriptions, Stephen Neale
provides the first sustained defense and extension of Russell's
theory, placing it in the center of a theory of singular and
nonsingular descriptive phrases and anaphoric pronouns.Stephen
Neale is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the University of
California, Berkeley.
