Who Killed Daniel Pearl?
Bernard-Henri Levy
Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, 2004
A sharing and shining of light
This is another of those books which by the very provocative nature of its title invites apprehension and misunderstanding from those who have not read it. Other reviewers have summarized the contents of the book quite adequately, so I shall confine my description ...
Philip of Macedon
Nicholas Hammond
Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, 1998
Philip of Macedon was one of the extraordinary figures of antiquity. Inheriting a kingdom near collapse, he left to his son Alexander the strongest state in Eastern Europe. He developed new military technology and made Macedonia the greatest power in the Western world. He created a united, multiracial kingdom based on liberal principles--and added ...
An Appeal to Reason
Nigel Lawson
Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, 2008
A Ph.D in Global Warming
This book is an extremely rational look at global warming that ultimately asks the reader, although not explicitly, to consider why human-kind still has a pronounced, if not suicidal, collectivist, and socialistic instinct when in all of human history only freedom has ...
Sheep and Man
Michael L. Ryder
Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, 2007
Traversa
Fran Sandham
Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, 2008
A rare jewel of travel writing
There are many things to admire about Mr. Sandham's book: the fact that he underwent great hardship at times in order to write it; the way in which he has unveiled some little-known parts of Africa to a wider audience; or his eloquent turn of phrase and sometimes ...
Murder on the "Minnesota"
Conrad Allen
Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, 2002
An exciting mystery on the high seas
George Porter Dillman and Genevieve Masefield did such a good job unmasking the murderer on the Lusitania, the cruise line has hired them as ship detectives. For nine months the duo sailed from England to New York but their faces were becoming too recognizable so when ...
The Zombie Survival Guide
Max Brooks
Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, 2004
"Exellent read"
The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks is amazing. It has humor, but is totally serious the entire length of the book. I feel that if a Zombie Outbreak happens anytime soon I will be better prepared having read mentioned book. A must for Zombie, Horror, and Survival ...
An Intelligent Person's Guide to Classics (Intelligent Person's Guide Series)
Peter Jones
Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, 1999
Peter Jones demystifies the Classics in this personal introduction to a subject often feared by those who do not understand Greek or Latin.
Mount Analogue
Rene Daumal
Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, 2005
A terrific read and a literary classic
This is a terrific book even for those who are not into mountain climbing or the spiritual philosophy of Gurdjieff. Indeed, when I first read Mount Analogue more than 25 years ago--back in the days when I ignored introductions and back-cover blurbs--I took it for a ...
Twenty Something
Iain Hollingshead
Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, 2007
Railway Ribaldry
Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, 1997
Man's Responsibility for Nature
John Passmore
Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, 1974
Passmore's compelling case for 'conservation'
John Passmore's book first appeared a number of decades ago, but is still setting the agenda for those with a concern for the environment who think that support humanity's actions in living and developing a coherent society and a care for nature are not mutually ...
