My father W.G.L. Tonkin was born in Bodmin in 1904 where he lived
until he went to Exeter University to train as a teacher. He went
to London in 1923, married and had two sons. He taught in Hackney
and later became a headmaster in Westminster. He returned to
Cornwall, which he loved, whenever he could. His father was a well
known ironmonger who owned a shop in Fore Street. Four generations
of Tonkins were ironmongers in Bodmin. After retirement he was
asked by my brother, Gregory, to recount his experience of life in
Bodmin when he was young. A 'Boy in Cornwall' is an account of his
experiences.

The Uncapturable is a wide-ranging reflection on the art of the
mise en scene from the perspective of leading Argentinian theatre
director Ruben Szuchmacher. It offers a timely and concise, though
comprehensive, survey of the role and responsibility of the theatre
director from the earliest times to the twenty-first century.
Szuchmacher defines theatre as the confluence of four art forms -
architecture, visual art, sound and literature - whose works only
truly exist in the moment of encounter with an audience. He argues
that, by taking full account of these four art forms, analysing
them in detail and engaging thoughtfully with the many specialists
who come together to bring a mise en scene into being, the director
of today can still create work that innovates and inspires. The
Uncapturable is as valuable to the apprentice director emerging
from their training as it is to the veteran in need of fresh
reflection. Szuchmacher draws on the unique learnings gleaned from
working in Argentina, be it the impact on theatre of politics, the
need for inventiveness in times of hardship, the phenomenon of
Argentine 'circus theatre' or the adaptation of literary giants
such as Borges, affording the Anglophone reader an alternative
perspective on the ideas of theatre we often take for granted.
Szuchmacher offers a unique blend of global knowledge, historical
awareness and a pragmatic, resourceful and creative approach from a
theatre artist working in Latin American through decades of change.
The book is translated from the Spanish by William Gregory.

At the age of thirteen, chemistry enthusiast Justus von Liebig
(1803-73) witnessed the devastation caused by a summer of crop
failure. Three decades later, Liebig had become a leading German
chemist based at the University of Giessen and had made significant
contributions to agriculture and medicine in addition to his
pioneering work in organic chemistry. This 1842 study in animal
metabolism includes detailed analysis of the chemical
transformation undergone in healthy and diseased organisms.
Although Liebig considers that chemical analysis alone is not
sufficient to explain physiological processes driven by 'vital
forces', he argues that it offers quantitative research methods
that are superior to mere observation. Several of his works,
including this one, were translated into English by his colleague,
Scottish chemist William Gregory (1803-58). Liebig's
laboratory-based teaching methods quickly gained popularity among
British researchers and contributed to the founding of the Royal
College of Chemistry in 1845.
Eight-year-old Garang, orphaned by a civil war in Sudan, finds the
inner strength to help lead other boys as they trek hundreds of
miles seeking safety in Ethiopia, then Kenya, and finally in the
United States. 'Brother in Hope' is aimed at children aged seven
and over.
