What really happened during the Thatcher years - the memoirs of the former Political Editor of the BBC

As it seemed to me: political memoirs

COLE, John

Weidenfeld&Nicolson

In 'Striper', this well-known editor, author and conservationist presents both a moving personal story and detailed natural history--reminiscent of William W. Warner's Pulitzer Prize-winning 'Beautiful Swimmers'--of the striped bass whose strength and grace have challenged and inspired American fishermen for centuries.

The geography of the European Community

The European Community does not exist just at a point or in a vacuum. It is made up of a mosaic of regions of various sizes, shapes and functions. The attributes of each region and its location in relation to other regions are vital for its existence and development as the way in which it is managed. Geography draws attention to the features and locations of regions and to their implications. People, natural resources and means of production are distributed in complex ways and people and products move or are moved from place to place. Increasingly the influence of the Community is being felt in its twelve member states and a new geography is emerging, with pressure to achieve convergence if not homogeneity. The author identifies and assesses the problems and prospects of the various regions of the EC and also views the Community as a system of interdependent regions. The EC has become increasingly important economically and more recently politically in a changing Europe, and its enlargement seems imminent. Attention is therefore given throughout the book to the activities and influence of the EC in the broader context of Europe and neighbouring parts of Africa and Asia. Its influence globally seems likely to grow and must also be taken into consideration.

This volume presents a global view of today's most pressing issues through an analysis of the twelve major regions of the world. Environmental degradation, natural catastrophe, population pressures and human conflict all impact in different ways and to different degrees on the society and environment of these regions. Economic and political restructuring within each region is covered, and topics include: natural resources; agriculture; industry and services; the role of the military; and the impact of global economic change. This work is intended as an introduction for students studying the changing geography of the world, but should also provide a useful overview to students researching specific regions, seeking comparative analysis of regions, or following general courses on the economic and political geography of both the post-industrial and the developing worlds. Over 250 photographs, maps and figures complement a range of boxed case-studies, key points, questions and guides to further reading.

Geography of the World's Major Regions

Can the European Union continue to grow and also converge? Is uniformity within the union desirable? The European Union has grown into a supranational entity formed from a mosaic of diverse regions. Its enlargement to encompass a number of Central European countries seems only a matter of time. With the EU's political and economic importance growing globally, the Union's influence is increasingly being felt within its Member States. A new geography is emerging with pressures to reduce regional disparities by a process of convergence. A Geography of the European Union provides a comprehensive introduction to the European Union, its identity, problems and prospects. Focusing on the key issues of integration and enlargement, the authors examine the major economic, social, environmental and political aspects of the EU, both in terms of its individual regions and as a system of interdependent states that form the single EU entity. Assessment of controversial issues is frank: problems of unemployment, social stress, ageing and the place of women are covered objectively, prompting readers to form their own interpretations. This completely revised and expanded 2nd Edition includes a wealth of new illustrations, data and analysis. Setting the EU within a broader European and global context, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to the changing geography of the European Union and its place in a rapidly changing world.
