The author provides an informed account of the psychological processes which make up the skill of listening, and...

Those who love Chopin will find the source here. Difficulty: intermediate (ABRSM Grade 6–7). The piece calls for flowing left-hand arpeggios, refined pedalling and cultivated tone aw...

Key Ideas

The term ‘social capital’ is a way of defining the intangible resources of community, shared values and trust upon which we draw in daily life. It has achieved considerable international currency across the social sciences through the very different work of Pierre Bourdieu in France and James Coleman and Robert Putnam in the United States, and has been widely taken up within politics and sociology as an explanation for the decline in social cohesion and community values in western societie...

Striped bass, or simply “stripers,” are a premier saltwater sportfish that can grow to over 50 pounds and swim in giant schools that will churn the surface of the water to a froth as they feed on baitfish, creating heart-pumping, fast-paced fly fishing. Originally native to coastal Atlantic States and eastern Canada, they have also been introduced to the Pacific as well as many inland reservoirs and the rivers that flow into them, making stripers arguably the most accessible and popular sa...

Approaches to Local History

Field names are not only interesting in themselves, but also a rich source of information about the communities originating them. The earliest recorded names often describe only the location or nature of the land, but changes in language, technology, social organisation, land ownership and even religious and political thinking have all contributed to a surprisingly complex picture today. A pioneering history.

The concept of this book is just as the title suggest. It was designed to explore ideas that were an actual concept or event, but fantasized in a fictional story like setting.

The book itself will pull at you heart strings and enrage you at times. It plans to be an emotional rollercoaster which will incline you to discov...
