This book, first published in 1989, contains a spirited debate between eminent economists, journalists, and publishers about the spread of economic ideas. The examination of the flow of ideas among economists and from economists to the public is followed by a discussion of the public policy use and abuse of these concepts.

Faith, Hope and Charity explores the interaction between social ideals and everyday experiences in Tudor and early Stuart neighbourhoods, drawing on a remarkably rich variety of hitherto largely unstudied sources. Focusing on local sites, where ordinary people lived their lives, Andy Wood deals with popular religion, gender relations, senses of locality and belonging, festivity, work, play, witchcraft, gossip, and reactions to dearth and disease. He thus brings a new clarity to understandings of the texture of communal relations in the historical past and highlights the particular characteristics of structural processes of inclusion and exclusion in the construction and experience of communities in early modern England. This engaging social history vividly captures what life would have been like in these communities, arguing that, even while early modern people were sure that the values of neighbourhood were dying, they continued to evoke and reassert those values.

Danniella Westbrook's colourful life has played out in the UK tabloids for almost 25 years, but, until now, she has never been so honest about her trials, tribulations and triumphs. Faith, Hope and Clarity sees Danniella deal with deep-rooted issues previously buried in her troubled past. The actress delves further back into the timeline of her first book The Other Side Of Nowhere to tackle the demons that have tainted, haunted and defined her. She talks frankly for the first time about the high and lows of the last decade, and her hopes and aspirations for the future. This new book pulls no punches and finally gives Danniella clarity to move on like never before.

What do God's judgments have to do with history? Using historical events, Steven J. Keillor pursues the thesis that divine judgment can be a fruitful category for historical investigation, and that Christianity is an interpretation of history more than a worldview or philosophy.
