The book covers the author's early years in Kent, followed by four years in post-war London, and then details the journey by ship in 1951 to Australia and the four years of hardship spent there. It describes the way in which her Mother made a home out of a garage (the only accommodation that the Australians were prepared to offer), the anti-British feelings encountered at school, and the difficulties that her Mother faced trying to find employment. Then the book takes the reader through the journey back to Britain by ship, to the joyous reunion in 1955 with family back in England, when the author was fourteen. The book finally brings the reader up to date with the author and her family, and provides a happy ending to a mesmerizing experience, laced with humour and challenges in equal measure.

Based on extensive research and interviews with leading sports executives, "Pommies" is the first book to investigate the management of professional cricket in England. Three years after the great Ashes victory in 2005, the England team has reverted to type. In 2007, it lost three out of four Test series and got nowhere in the ICC World Cup and Twenty20 tournaments. Since 1987, Australia has thrashed England 34-9 in Tests and won four World Cups to England's none. Today, Australia has five cricket stadiums with more than 30,000 seats to England's none. Their team is accessible to all on Channel Nine, but England fans have to pay GBP400 a year for Sky. Using Australia as the model and inspiration, "Pommies" explains what is wrong with England cricket and presents a radical plan to improve the national team and open up the game for fans.

Frederick Case is a 42-year-old New Zealand film-maker failing in London. He's separated from his wife, Sophie Carlisle, an actress who has run off with super-stud actor Matt Chalmers, her co-star in the smash hit movie Shag City - the first mainstream film ever to depict an erect penis being sucked. To make matters worse Sophie is pregnant. When Frederick is invited to fly out to the film world's party of the year on the remote Pacific island of Makulalanana, knowing that Sophie and Matt will be there, he hires 'Miss Melissa', a hooker, to play the part of his gorgeous new girlfriend.

Winner of the National Indie Excellence Award in New Adult Non-Fiction, 2018 The adventure of a lifetime - the journey of a generation: a discovered cache of letters prompts a boomer backpacker to reconsider lost loves and lessons learned traveling solo along Asia's infamous Overland Trail. Part travelogue, part time capsule, part confession..." Overland transports us to 1975, when an aspiring Chicago journalist traveling Solo While Female set out on a path traveled by thousands of adventurers in the 60s and 70s in search of enlightenment, cheap thrills, and free love. From Bali to Batu Ferringhi, from Bangkok to Burma and beyond, in the wake of war and the shadow of colonialism, the story recalls the challenges of travel in an Informationless Age, framed against a mind-bending backdrop of ethnic, cultural, and religious diversity. Rollicking yet reflective, it's a digitally remastered blast from a place and time past, when the ultimate measure of cool wasn't where you were from, but how far you'd come. Book club note: Overland frames distinctly feminine coming-of-age themes within a historic, societal, and political context that is sure to stimulate spirited debate. Our Reading Guide provides the prompts.

England, 1958: Young Higgs is a hard-working motorcycle mechanic in Milton-Keynes. The entire country is generally cold and damp. There’s got to be more out there for a man with his ambition. The future looks grey. Until he picks up the paper over a pint one night in The Carrington Arms. The Northern Rhodesia Police Force (NRP) needs men now. A phone call, some paperwork, and a few handshakes later, Higgs is aboard the R.M.M.V. Carnarvon Castle bound for Cape Town. The next three years see this handsome young ladies’ man get to grips with British law enforcement on the African continent; a rather different affair to the bobby-on-the-beat procedures of home. Cue hilarity, horror, and harrowing tragedy as Higgs builds a life of remarkable proportions as an officer of the Northern Rhodesia Police Force. Based on the true lives and stories of original NRP officers, Kwacha is both a fun-filled tale and an important historical document that captures and preserves a world order fast fading from living memory.

Every day, 1500 Americans die of cancer, and yet for most of us this deadly disease remains mysterious. Why is it so common? Why are there so many different causes? Why does treatment so often fail? What, ultimately, is cancer? In this fascinating new book, a leading cancer researcher offers general readers clear and convincing answers to these and many other questions. Mel Greaves places cancer in its evolutionary context, arguing that we can best answer the big questions about cancer by looking through a Darwinian lens. Drawing on both ancient and more modern evolutionary legacies, he shows how human development has changed the rules of evolutionary games, trapping us in a nature-nurture mismatch. Compelling examples, from the King of Naples intestinal tumor in the 15th century, through the epidemic of scrotal skin cancer in 18th-century chimney sweeps, to the current surge of cases of prostate cancer illustrate his thesis. He also shows why the old paradigms of infectious diseases or genetic disorders have proved fruitless when trying to explain this complex and elusive disease. And finally, he looks at the implications for research, prevention, and treatment of cancer that an evolutionary perspective provides. Drawing on the most recent research, this is the first book to put cancer in its evolutionary framework. At a time when Darwinian perspectives on everything from language acquisition to economics are providing new breakthroughs in understanding, medicine seems to have much to gain from the insights provided by evolutionary biology. Written in an exceptionally lucid and entertaining style, this book will be of broad interest to all those who wish to know more about this dread disease.

Danny Dawson lives in the middle of the Australian outback. His older brother Jonny was killed in an accident last year but no-one ever talks about it. And now it's time for the annual muster. The biggest event of the year on the cattle station, and a time to sort the men from the boys. But this year things will be different: because Jonny's gone and Danny's determined to prove he can fill his brother's shoes; because their fourteen-year-old sister is pregnant; because it's getting hotter and hotter and the rains won't come; because cracks are beginning to show . . . When Danny's mum admits she can't cope, the family hires a housegirl to help out - a wide-eyed English backpacker. She doesn't have a clue what she's let herself in for. And neither do they.
