About the book Melvyn Bragg's In Our Time series regularly enlightens and entertains substantial audiences on BBC Radio 4. For this book he has selected episodes which reflect the diversity of the radio programmes, and takes us on an amazing tour through the history of ideas, from philosophy, physics and history to religion, literature and biology. We can discover the reasons for the fall of the Byzantine empire, and why women were persecuted as witches in the seventeenth century. What happened in the peasants' revolt? What shape is the origin of life? Where does our calendar come from? We can unearth the influence of great Islamic thinkers, prime numbers, Socrates and Tectonic plates. Melvyn Bragg orchestrates the ideas of leading academics in each field so that the dynamic and lively discussion from the programmes comes through vividly on the page. In Our Time brings to life the signposts of history, the moments that significantly changed the world as we know it, and the individuals and ideas that made us what we are today.…

Zustand: Very Good. . Hardcover. Secker & Warburg / Book Club Associates, 1976, 1st edn. in laminated pictorial jacket in mint condition; blue cloth boards in mint condition; viii+504pp in mint condition. At the turn of the century Wigton in Cumberland was a smallish town, largely in part agricultural, in part industrial. Today it occupies much the same area, but in other ways it has greatly changed. It is the main theme of Mr Bragg's challenging and wonderfully human sociological study that these changes have been substantially for the better and that they typify what has been happening all over England in the past "three score years and ten". Speak For England is told in a wide variety of interviews with people of all ages and stations in life ? interviews made the more convincing and often poignant by the fact that Melvyn Bragg was born and bred in the town. There are the elderly, reminiscing nostalgically about the old days dominated by the Big House on the hill; the young men who went to the 1914 war and returned in bewildered disillusion to face the bad times ahead for working men in the Twenties; the dawn of better times for many ordinary people in the much maligned Thirties; the Second World War which so many used to acquire trades for the future, and finally the post-war social revolution which has given to the majority of Wigton's inhabitants greater leisure, wider horizons, more security. In this panoramic book Melvyn Bragg covers every aspect of English life. The people speak for themselves, and his pages are peopled with miners, farmers, dog breeders, pigeon fanciers, councillors, school teachers, factory workers, housewives and shopkeepers. They come wonderfully to life and the author maintains that for all our present difficulties there remains in Wigton, as in all England, a reserve of energy that bodes well for the future. 9½x6in. . . . .
