Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Every time I find the meaning of life, they change it. The words of Reinhold Niebuhr provide the title and set the tone for what is a wryly humorous look at some of the great philosophical pronouncements on how life ought to be lived. Fifty years ago Daniel Klein embarked on the study of philosophy… at Harvard, where he began gathering wise words from the world's greatest thinkers. Now in his seventies, he revisits these pronouncements with characteristic warmth, charm and wonderfully dry sense of humour. Distilling the wonders of our greatest thinkers, from Epicurus and Nietzsche, all the way to Samuel Beckett, Klein is enlightening and never dull. This is a pithy and eminently readable meditation on one of the most profound subjects there is. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. June 1940: France has fallen and Great Britain is the only nation left standing between Nazi Germany and total domination of Europe. Faced by the greatest possible crisis, Winston Churchills emergency coalition government must lead the way. In this illuminating and engrossing work, award-winning hi…storian Jonathan Schneer draws on original research to disclose, for the first time, the inner machinations of Britains wartime government. Dispelling the popular myth that the War Cabinet constituted an unbreakable band of brothers, Schneer reveals that they were in fact a team of rivals, steeped in quarrels, power plays, unexpected alliances and intrigue. Beyond the war itself, Ministers at War traces how the prospect of peace saw this ensemble of political titans fall apart, ultimately paving the way for a unified, progressive government and the birth of the welfare state.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Winner of the Arthur Ellis Award 2015 In this first Birder Murder mystery newly appointed police inspector Domenic Jejeune doesnt mind ruffling a few feathers to flush out suspects in the brutal murder of a renowned ecological activist Newly appointed police inspector Domenic Jejeune doesnt mind ru…ffling a few feathers. Indeed his success has elevated him into a poster boy for the police. The problem is Jejeune doesnt really want to be a detective at all; he much prefers watching birds. Recently reassigned to the small Norfolk town of Saltmarsh, located in the heart of Britains premier birding country, Jejeunes two worlds collide with the grisly murder of a prominent ecological activist. His ambitious police superintendent foresees a blaze of welcome publicity, although doubts soon emerge when Jejeunes best theory involves a feud over birdwatching lists. A second murder does little to bolster confidence. Jejeune must call on all his birding knowhow to solve the mystery and deal with unwelcome public acclaim, the mistrust of colleagues and his own insecurities. For, in the case of the Saltmarsh birder murders, the victims may not be the only casualties. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
