Britain's neglect of fungi as table delicacies has perhaps been responsible for our surprising ignorance of the natural history of such fascinating plants. This edition is exclusive to newnaturalists.com Puff-balls, more than a foot in diameter; mouls in jam-pots; dry rot; truffles; these are examples of the wide range of the Group, comprising over 100,000 species. Many are of economic importance – for example, the rusts that attack wheat and other crops, and the yeasts which ferment beer – and there are others of great biological interest, such as the mycorrhizal fungi which live in association with the roots of forest trees, orchids and other plants, and help them to absorb food from the soil. Penicillin, of course, has become a household word, and this book's final chapter on the industry is one of the best short accounts of the subject yet writtern. Dr. Ramsbottom was for many years Keeper of Botany at the Natural History Museum, and has devoted his life to the study of fungi in all their aspects. He is equally at home in the field, the laboratory and the library. One of the special features of Mushrooms and Toadstools is the wealth of historical allusion to fungi extracted from old books. Set out in a style reminiscent of Robert Burton, this volume can truly be described as a 20th century Anatomy of Toadstool. Indeed, in fairy rings, science and superstition have gone hand in hand to produce a lively story of alternating surmise and research – and even today a full and final explanation of these mysterious rings has not yet been made. Many of the larger toadstools are brightly coloured and lend themselves admirably to colour photography, as shown by the 80 remarkable illustrations by Mr Paul de Laszlo.

Foremost military historian Richard Holmes offers us a compelling and at times terrifying account of what it means to be a contemporary soldier. In this remarkable book, Holmes draws on the testimonies and personal photographs of the 700 soldiers of the Princess of Wales Royal Regiment in Iraq to vividly capture their day-to-day experiences of the conflict, from camp kitchens to the heart of an armoured convey barrelling out across the desert. As colonel-in-chief of the Princess of Wales Royal Regiment himself from 1999 until 2007, Holmes combines acute observation with heartfelt experience to produce a gripping and deeply moving vision of his regiment at war.

Hugh Thomas is a surgeon and forensic expert of international repute. His 1979 book, The Murder of Rudolf Hess, caused a world-wide furore as it alleged that the prisoner in Spandau Gaol was not Rudolf Hess.

The origins of this book lie in its predecessor, Heroes and Contemporaries, published by my good friends at Collins in 1983. It was then felt that these present memoirs and observations would represent an interim collection of writings before I embark upon the story of my complete cricketing career.There is such intense interest in the lives and performances of public figures that one would need to be a recluse of hermit-like proclivity to avoid revealing personal details, opinions and beliefs. The trick is to try to satisfy that interest without leaving oneself entirely naked and I have not, as far as I know, committed myself in this book on race, religion, sex, politics or on the cricket correspondents of popular newspapers. A Right Ambition starts where every book on cricket should begin, with a small boy’s wish to wield a bat. It ends, like all good fairy stories, with that small boy having grown up to join an England team which won back the Ashes from Australia and with his joy and delight at having been able to play the game in so many wonderful places and to have made so many lasting friends.

Singurul mod ?n care po?i s? afli dac? ai reu?it s? ui?i cu adev?rat o persoan? pe care c?ndva o iubeai cu toat? puterea ta este s? te ?nt?lne?ti cu ea, s-o prive?ti ?n ochi ?i s? nu-?i dore?ti s-o iei ?n bra?e.

William Stoner tizenkilenc évesen beiratkozik a Missouri Egyetem agrártudományi karára. Kés?bb tanár lesz ugyanott. Rosszul n?sül. Csendes, észrevétlen életet él, és halála után ritkán jut eszébe kollégáinak. A Stoner univerzális érték? t?rténetet tár elénk: ?szintén, részvéttel, átható er?vel. Az ember konfliktusairól, kudarcairól és diadalairól mesél, a szürke hétk?znapokról, amelyeket nem szokott meg?r?kíteni a t?rténetírás. Az egyedi élet jelent?ségének állít emléket. Páratlan olvasmány, dicshimnusza az irodalom erejének, olyan regény, amelynek minden mondatát élvezni kell. John Williams (1922–1994) amerikai író, k?lt?. Denverben tanult, majd tanított irodalmat. F?bb m?vei: Nothing but the Night (1948), Butcher’s Crossing (1960), Stoner (1965) és az Augustus, amely 1973-ban megkapta a Nemzeti K?nyvdíjat. Magyarul ez az els? k?nyve.
