The Must-Have for Renaissance Art Enthusiasts.......2005-04-30
I prodded my father to buy me this book back in the mid-90's and never regretted it. This book not only covers the artist's works, but her family's history and correspondence between Anguissola and her associates. Very well-thought out book and great pictures of her paintings.

Book Description
Governments worldwide are seeking to liberalize agricultural trade, and to change their role from one of controlling trade and prices. Instead these governments seek new roles in encouraging market developments, ensuring quality, and providing food security by giving income assistance rather than controlling food supplies. The issue of how this process is being managed in developing countries is the focus of this book. A series of case studies including India, Sri Lanka, Ghana, Zimbabwe, Kenya, and Ivory Coast highlights the individuality of approaches and the varying capability and will of governments to take on these new roles.

Book Description
Among the most dramatic changes to affect China in the 1990s is the upsurge in labour mobility and the emergence of a market-driven system of labour allocation, changes which profoundly affect the working environment and livelihoods of the Chinese people. Papers in this collection draw on a wide variety of data sources to analyse key elements of this transformation. Topics examined include the determinants of productivity and labour allocation in the rural sector, the motivations for the rural population to migrate, and the effect of reforms on rural-urban segmentation, sectoral labour allocation and wage determination. The longer term welfare implications of these changes are explored through a study of pension reform. These issues are central to an understanding of major policy challenges currently facing the Chinese government as it speeds up state entreprise reform bringing into the open formerly disguised un- or under-employment, and considers options for the construction of alternative, non-enterprise based social security provision in both rural and urban areas.
Book Description
In Mrs. Tully's Room makes a quiet but powerful case for the pedagogical skill and psychological insight that childcare providers--so often underpaid and undervalued--can bring to their work. It also emphasizes how warm, quasi-familial, even mentoring relationships can develop between childcare providers and their preschool families.

Paley does it again.......2004-07-20
This little story is a quick read. Having retired, Vivian Paley now tells the story of a school she visits and comes quickly to love. They are doing stories in the 2's class - which might involve just one word from a child. which is later lovingly acted out by the whole class.
As an early childhood educator, I read Paley to get ideas and wisdom for my own classroom. But this is a book that parents could enjoy as well, and it should certainly let others know through the warmth and wisdom of the school what good early care should be!

The Iron Duke.......2002-08-13
This is generally a fine biography of one of Britain's greatest generals. The bulk of the book is spent, appropriately, on the Peninsula campaign, although there is adequate discussion of Wellington's experiences in India and a fairly lengthy description of Waterloo. The book is well written and the author goes to some lengths to dispel her subject's reputation for coldness. However, although the author does not claim that Wellington is perfect, it appears that he never made a mistake if Ms. Longford is to be believed. Notwithstanding this minor reservation, this book is well worth reading.
A masterpiece.......2001-04-01
I do not think there could be a better biography of Wellington as to this first portion of his life. This volume covers his life to the victory at Waterloo. The description of the battle is very well done and brings this book to a triumphant conclusion.
One of the best biographies I have ever read!.......1999-02-24
Elizabeth Longford's "Wellington: The Years of the Sword" is one of the best biographies I have ever read. Ms. Longford covers her topic in exquisite detail. From Arthur Wellesley's early life in Ireland to his service in India to the Duke of Wellington's defeat of Napolean at Waterloo, this book provides excellent details and is thoroughly referenced. I consider this to be the definitive biography of the Duke of Wellington.

The Bellweather Biography.......2007-08-04
Elizabeth Longford's 1969 biography "Wellington: The Years of the Sword" may still be the most balanced portrait of the First Duke of Wellington in his years on active service as an officer in the British Army. Longford is blessed with a highly accessible prose style and an intimate understanding of the class system and social mores of the world in which Wellington lived. Her extensive access to Wellington's personal correspondence permits remarkable insight into his personality, revealing a more complex human being than the stiff, stoic leader of other biographies.
What emerges is a portrait of Wellington as, first, a dreamy and shallow young man, then a young and ambitious military officer, and finally as the mature and highly professional general who defeated Napoleon's Marshals in Portugal and Spain, and Napoleon himself at Waterloo.
Longford's coverage of Wellington's battlefield exploits is episodic and in no more detail than that required to advance the narrative and to provide examples of Wellington's leadership style. Where Longford excells is in her insights into the development of Wellington's character. She captures the challenge of Wellington's youth as the middle and seemingly least-talented of several children. She provides a balanced description of Wellington's ambition for opportunities to shine in the British Army in India. She is properly skeptical of some of the accounts of Wellington's alleged womanizing, while her discussion of the Duke's unhappy marriage to Kitty Pakenham is marked by emotional depth and nuance. Longford notes throughout the book the continuing influence of Wellington's family on his development as a person and and on his military career.
This book and a second volume, "Pillar of the State", on Wellington's career in government and politics post-Waterloo are both unfortunately long out of print but continue to influence more recent biographers.
This book is very highly recommended as an excellent and still relevant biography of the First Duke of Wellington's youth and career on active service in the British Army.

Book Description
Birds are hosts to many parasites, internal and external. The parasites inevitably form a burden to the host bird and therefore may affect its ability to grow, survive, and reproduce; its behaviour; and the distribution and abundance of the whole species. In consequence, bird-parasite systems have attracted attention from diverse fields and the literature has been spread out in a wide range of specialized journals. The editors of this book have drawn together a comprehensive range of experts in the field to provide an invaluable reference of current work in bird-parasite interactions. The book is divided into four parts. The introduction provides the contemporary context of research in bird-parasite systems and presents case studies which combine theoretical concepts with experimental data. Subsequent parts focus on the ecology; behavioural responses; and the effect of parasitism on sexual selection.
