How is Christianity to express itself in the public forum within Western nations? This book seeks answers through a historical retrieval of the dynamic mission in post-war Scotland of Tom Allan and his contemporaries: the Iona Community; the Gorbals Group Ministry inspired by the East Harlem Protestant Parish; and Robert Mackie, Ian Fraser and Scottish Churches House. Allan's missiology focused upon the apostolate of the laity: allowing ordinary people to express their faith in word and deed in a full contextualization of Christianity to seek a missionary parish of constant witness and service. The book examines his work in parish ministry, nationally as leader of the Tell Scotland Movement, and internationally with the WCC; and the rich sources and context of his missiology. Key questions are asked about tensions caused by the role of the church, and the effect of the Billy Graham "All Scotland Crusade," which Allan instigated, on the rapid decline in Christian adherence from the late fifties. His work is placed alongside his contemporaries, who took bold steps beyond those of Allan to relocate faith to the rhythms of the streets. Utilizing present day missiology as a lens, their inspiration leads to derivations and principles, offered as guideposts for Christian mission now.

In Anarchy County is a humorous, politically charged novel that continues the tradition of Edward Abbey's The Monkey Wrench Gang. As Abbey's subversive novel, about rescuing the American Southwest from development through sabotage, brought the environmental group Earth First! into existence, so this novel explores the radical offshoot of that group, the Earth Liberation Front: the #1 domestic terrorist threat to the nation as claimed the FBI in 2005. Though to clarify: the Earth Liberation Front has never murdered anyone. Instead of sitting in a tree and hoping the loggers will give up, the ELF will blow up the logging trucks until they leave. Furthermore, some would say it's ludicrous to call this group's ecoterrorism the #1 threat to our country. Thus bringing us to the back-to-earth anarchists, feminists, and new agers of Rouge River Farm in southern Oregon who do not support the steamroller of corporate farming, genetic engineering, governmental coercion, and capitalist culture at large. But they don't all know exactly how to fight such powerful forces in the world. Three young anarchist farmers, fans of the ELF, decide to lead the charge by burning down a field of genetically modified corn. However, not everyone on the farm agrees with these methods and this action sparks heavy consequences for the small organic farming movement across the country. The FBI roused and the ELF becoming involved, these farmers will now have to best place themselves behind their beliefs as possible. A romp of radical politics from all sides of the spectrum from the start, and the clashing of youth subcultures whether they be anarchist, hippie, punk, hipster, or a mixture of all four, will challenge you to take a side, and then, hopefully, take action.

As the course of World War II turned against the Third Reich after Stalingrad some of the most inventive and radical proposals, and designs, were put forward by armaments manufacturers, scientists and technicians, aircrew and even private individuals to the Reichsluftministerium (German Air Ministry) for consideration. Some proposals were destined never to leave the drawing board, while others not only underwent trials but were issued to operational units and used in action. In this fascinating new book, leading Luftwaffe historian Robert Forsyth examines the many different types of weapons that comprised the Luftwaffe's increasingly potent arsenal during the second half of the war. This was the period that saw the development and adoption of aerial torpedoes, wire-guided rockets and missiles, batteries fired by photo-electric cells, chemical weapons, composite bombers and air-launched flying bombs.
Bruce Forsyth is known across four generations as the face of family entertainment classics such as The Generation Game, Play Your Cards Right and The Price is Right. His is an amazing story that spans more than two thirds of the twentieth century. In the late 1950s, over half of Britain would tune in to Sunday Night at the London Palladium, making Bruce a star in a few weeks. But it had been a long slog since his debut as a fourteen-year-old 'Boy Bruce the Mighty Atom' in 1942, then wartime work for the Red Cross and National Service, and playing every theatre, concert party, summer season, double act and review known to man. Bruce's first-ever account of his whole life is chock full of anecdotes, honest appraisals of tough times, failed marriages and affairs, comments on entertainment and what it took to be a comedian at the height of his powers. 'In the gameshow of life, Brucie hasn't just won the TV, the golf clubs and the hostess trolley. He's won the cuddly toy as well' Mirror
