Reading the book made me wish I could start teaching all over again. It is thought provoking with lots of suggestions for new and old teachers alike. I would recommend as a must to all NQT's, trainees and non specialists'. Teresa Bird, Maths teacher, Burnley It has challenged the way I approach, teach, and even think about maths myself. It is great to read a book written with such passion offering suggestions that anyone can try the next day. The ideas I have tried have been really successful and provided enjoyable and sometimes memorable experiences.

When his wife walks in on the thief, the situation quickly teeters out of control, leaving an empty safe and a lifeless body.

With two elusive criminals on the loose, Detective Lindsay Boxer calls on the Women's Murder Club to help her stop them before they continue their spree.
How to Rise to the Top...and Stay There!: A Leadership Manual
The present dire economic environment has greatly affected business and the opportunities for advancement or even holding a job. Even universities, although not directly in business, are feeling the impact of diminishing endowments, resulting in lower disposable funds and reduction in innovative, unproven programs, which, in the past, often led to breakthroughs. These conditions we hope are only temporary, and they will not affect careers in the long run. This book is written to guide the reader on how to progress in his or her chosen career, how to reach a high position in which one is actually in charge of a unit, department, school, or business and how to run it successfully.

Origins: A Short Etymological Dictionary of Modern English
This dictionary gives the origins of some 20,000 items from the modern English vocabulary, discussing them in groups that make clear the connections between words derived by a variety of routes from originally common stock. As well as giving the answers to questions about the derivation of individual words, it is a fascinating book to browse through, since every page points out links with other entries. It is easy to pursue such trails as the longer articles are written as continuous prose clearly divided up by means of numbered paragraphs and subheadings, and there is a careful system of cross-references.
