      Poutavá kniha Ptáci na zahradě potěší každého milovníka přírody, který se touží vyznat v nepřeberném množství ptačích druhů a zároveň by rád na své zahradě či pozemku přivítal alespoň některé z nich. V knize najdete praktické rady a tipy, jak osázet a upravit svou zahradu tak, aby byla pro ptactvo dostatečně přitažlivá. Dozvíte se, jak postupovat při stavbě ozdobných ptačích budek a dalších „projektů“, které vám pomohou ptáky do zahrady přivábit. Naleznete zde i zajímavé náměty na krmítka a koupadla, která se hodí do každé zahrady a zvládne je vyrobit i méně zkušený kutil. Navíc se dočtete o rozmisťování budek, jejich kontrole a čištění i o tom, kdy a čím ptáky přikrmovat. Součástí knihy je také podrobný ilustrovaný atlas ptáků, kteří se vyskytují ve středoevropských zahradách.

      In Solitude's Shadow
    • The Author, a young conscript, fought with The Glorious Glosters at the legendary Imjin River battle. Heavily outnumbered by the Chinese and subjected to 'human-wave' infantry attacks, he and his colleagues suffered the trauma of being over-run and the vast majority of those who were not killed became POWs. This serious reverse of fortunes shocked post-war Britain but the bravery of the Battalion caught the public's imagination. The inhuman treatment suffered at their captors' hands by the survivors, including the author, has possibly never been fully realized. This memoir written from the perspective of a fighting soldier will surely bring home some most unpalatable truths.

      This Palgrave Pivot uses a simple model from game theory to explain the behavior of countries disputing ownership of resources and of small islands in the South China Sea. It argues that the rapid transformation of the region's economy - the rise of Factory Asia – is not being acknowledged, leading countries to take chances beyond what a rational picture of costs and benefits would suggest. Regional economic cooperation may be a viable alternative to the present conflicts. However, the varied experience of regional initiatives in Southeast Asia provides a cautionary note that, while there is the potential for peaceful development of the South China Sea, there are significant challenges to structuring successful programs.& nbsp;
