This book, drawing together the work of 15 scholars, is the first attempt to discover what really happened during the war in British agriculture. It shows just how closely directed agriculture and individual farmers were in wartime, and the determination with which uncooperative or 'failing' farmers might be dispossessed. It describes the tensions between agriculture and the military, showing how the ploughing up campaign added land to the national farm but just at the time when the military were taking it for airfields and training grounds. This revelatory book challenges received wisdom about farming in wartime. It is essential reading for all interested in the evolution of twentieth-century farming and in the historical origins of farming's present predicament.

Front-line employees who deal directly with customers are the face of any organization. Not only do they have the most impact on how a brand is perceived, but they are also the most valuable source of insight into what customers want and how to give it to them. Unfortunately, as management experts Chris DeRose and Noel M. Tichy explain, most organizations don't know how to evaluate the risk of giving employees more autonomy. Many of those who are willing to try haven't even invested resources in ensuring that-once the shackles are off-front-line employees make good judgments. Tichy and DeRose offer powerful examples of front-line leadership, such as: How Zappos trusts its people to do anything in service of a customer, including providing free product or reimbursing for mistakes How Mayo Clinic of Arizona enabled its nurses to challenge the hierarchy in order to improve patient care

The funny, inspiring story of a family who went from die-hard urbanites to bonafide farmers, to revolutionaries in good food and sustainable farming. In an effort to ditch the rat race and live a life that was true to their values, Brent Preston left the city with his wife, Gillian Flies, and their two kids to start a farm. After a series of missteps and mishaps The New Farm became a beacon in the good food movement, an example of successful, sustainable agriculture. Brent shares the unquestionably hilarious story of his journey from city slicker to agrarian advocate, from turning the bathtub into a chicken coop (with malodorous results) to earning a respected reputation among North America's top chefs for the farm's organic produce. At a time when readers are keenly aware of the overwhelming environmental, social and moral costs of our industrial food system, The New Farm offers a vision for a hopeful future, a model of agriculture that brings people together around good food and promotes a healthier planet.

The tragic and devastating consequences of the Asian tsunami, December 2004, and the hurricanes and cyclones of 2005 were a wake up call for the global community, dramatically drawing attention to the dangers of undermining the services that coastal ecosystems provide to humankind. This report has gathered lessons that have been learned since these events that will be relevant to future management of the coasts in the context of severe weather events and other potential consequences of global warming. The publication aims to help decision and policy makers around the world understand the importance of coastal habitats to humans, focusing on the role of coral reefs and mangroves. As well as coastal protection, it also addresses the huge range of other benefits provided by these ecosystems and the role that they can play in coastal development and in restoring livelihoods for those suffering from the effects of extreme events

Theorizes the experiences of women in wartime, and specifically of African women during Zimbabwe's anti-colonial struggle. A Zimbabwe-specific study, focusing on the lives of women in a small locale (Chiweshe) during the anti-colonial insurgency, this book is also a challenge to established and still current modes of thought and research orientationswhich over-simplify the complex realities women face in the full range of violent conflicts, both past and present. By contextualizing the voices of women of Chiweshe, not only is an important and under-developed aspect of Zimbabwean and African history revealed, but a new approach to comprehending the highly-tensioned lives of women in war is presented, which is characterized here as Gendered Localised Resistance. This is examined through the prism of life in the Protected Villages in Chiweshe experienced in everyday social relations, revolutionary roles, and food security. It traces how women forged strategies of survival and resistance in the middle of guerrilla warfare pitted between the forces of the state and the revolutionary resistance movements. The book can be read as a unique and richly detailed account of the lives of women during the Zimbabwe civil war and liberation struggle; as a wider argument about how researchers can approach and incorporate lived experience into accounts of larger dynamics (war/revolution); and as a substantial and important contribution to feminist historiography and writings on women and war. Eleanor O' Gorman is Senior Associate at the Gender Studies Centre and a Research Associate at the Department of Politics and International Studies at the University of Cambridge; an independent consultant who has advised the UN, the UK Government (DFID and FCO), the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs, the European Commission, and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Zimbabwe: Weaver Press

The Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs needs to scrutinise and challenge its arm's length bodies so that it can oversee cost reductions with minimal disruption to frontline services, according to this report from the National Audit Office. Those bodies understand their own costs reasonably well, but the Department still has more to do to achieve the full understanding of the relationships between cost, outputs and outcomes needed to be confident that it is securing value for money. The Department gives the bodies considerable operational autonomy. It has begun to develop ways of more systematically collecting high level financial management information from the bodies and has now rolled out a standard template for collecting financial management data. As the template focuses on the monitoring of expenditure against high level budgets it does not show whether the full costs of frontline activities are accurately measured and well managed. This study uses four of the Department's larger delivery bodies as case studies. The report notes that the Department has few indicators to assess whether the costs of activities in these bodies are high or low. All four of the bodies that the NAO examined have started to assess costs against internal benchmarks. However, Defra has not requested this data. Arm's length bodies have struggled to identify external cost benchmarks. The Department does not have comparable information about the unit costs of front-line work and has not asked arm's length bodies to explain the basis of their cost calculations.
