Never far from centre stage, Edwina Currie falls comfortably into that category of celebrity you simply cannot ignore. Her first published diaries explosively revealed an affair with former Prime Minister John Major. This second volume, which begins in 1992 with her refusal to serve in Major's government, is no less revelatory about her colleagues, encounters with others in the public eye and, of course, her extraordinary career. Honest, compulsive and of the moment, this collection covers her life in Parliament up to the election of Blair's Labour government, but more importantly sees Edwina's emergence as a mainstay in the public imagination, first as a bestselling author, then as a commentator, broadcaster, presenter and performer. Shot through with her trademark effervescence and sense of fun, this volume of diaries documents one of the biggest characters in British public life at her saucy, scathing best.

After Margaret Thatcher, Edwina Currie was the second most prominent woman in British politics during the 1980s. Indeed, she was often spoken of as a potential Prime Minister. Her outspokenness and her lively, media-friendly personality won her a much higher profile than her status as a junior minister would otherwise have commanded. When she was forced to resign from the government after warning of the danger signs of salmonella infection in eggs, she was already a national figure. Revealing her four-year affair with former Prime Minister John Major, Edwina's diaries caused a media sensation. A decade on, and now with previously unpublished material, the diaries still provide a remarkable insight into politics at the top by a writer with an observant eye and a sharp sense of humour. Edwina Currie's honesty, her frankness and her courage make these unexpurgated diaries an irresistible read.

A skilfully crafted tale of sex, spin and political skulduggery. Frank's rise up the greasy pole has seen his career reach Cabinet status, and the myriad problems that accompany it - a wife, a mistress and a spin-doctor screaming for him to choose between the two... Social Security Secretary Diane has the sort of sexual appetite that would make Bill Clinton blush. And though her newest office recruit, the young and good-looking Edward, is everything she could wish for, he is about to make her life heart-rendingly complicated... The Leader of the New Democrats, meanwhile, is facing pressure from his party to marry his attractive ambitious girlfriend. And far from relieving the accompanying stress, Benedict's pursuit of martial arts is about to turn his life upside down...

Helen Majinsky is sixteen, Jewish and confused. She is also in love - like every Merseyside schoolgirl - with four mop-topped young men, seduced by the Cavern Club and the exciting sound of 1963. In the year The Beatles have the world at their feet, Helen dreams secretly of reaching university and leaving Liverpool. Her Liverpool. Her world. For a grammar school girl to even consider a future outside the city is to break taboos stronger than the Mersey undertow, and as the prospect of a place at Oxbridge shimmers into view, Helen knows she is restrained by the very forces of stability she longs to escape. But when love intervenes - with Michael Levison, a locally stationed US serviceman - Helen finds the means to break the chains of the old life, and her guide through the hidden dangers of the new...

Elaine Stalker, newly elected MP, has worked hard for her election to Westminster. But the unequivocally masculine atmosphere of the House of Commons is a hostile environment for an attractive, ambitious woman and Elaine is frustrated when her talents are ignored. Relishing his powerful role as wheeler-dealer, whip Roger Dickson provides a sympathetic ear for Elaine. At first their relationship is strictly professional; but a shared passion for politics proves an aphrodisiac and late-night sittings offer ample opportunities for discussions of a more private nature...

As the rumours subside and the cheering stops, Elaine Stalker MP watches with a pang of regret as Roger Dickson takes up the reins of government as Prime Minister. She has intimate knowledge of just how competent and decent her ex-lover is, but his new role of necessity curtails their close friendship. Yet Roger recognises Elaine's drive and quickly appoints her Junior Minister in a newly created government department. It is a political hot seat, and one that finds Elaine ruefully concluding that in the corridors of power, a woman's place is usually in the wrong... A powerful sequel to A Parliamentary Affair.

What if 75 per cent of what we now call depression is actually unresolved grief? What if anger is actually an untapped energy source for creativity? What if obsessive worry is actually restrained passion? Clinical psychologist Dr Gail Feldman casts tragedy in a new light as she presents grief as a catalyst for creativity. Portraits of a wide range of historical figures including the biblical Job, van Gogh, Gandhi and Michelangelo - plus clinical case studies - illustrate how pain and depression can be transformed into powerful expressions of the self. The author's work in this field provides a map for finding possibilities and creativity among the ruins of personal loss and sudden life change.
