One of the co-founders of the Mass Observation project, Tom Harrison used many of the then-unpublished records of the organisation to put together this record of people's experiences on the British home front during the bombings of the Second World War- first-hand accounts recorded by people as they lived through the Blitz. Unlike earlier histories of the war, whether propagandist or simply patriotic, Harrisson's version doesn't close its eyes to the terrors and misery of the bombings, nor to the failure of the authorities to alleviate the suffering caused by the raids. 
Published posthumously in 1976, Living through the Blitz was part of the first wave of revisionism that washed clear the rose-tinting of earlier historians and made the blitz experience comprehensible for future generations.

Saturday Night Press Publications

This, Tom Harrison's original book about the amazing psychic/ spiritual phenomena of 'materialisation' they had through his mother's mediumship is being reprinted by special request of several friends who like to give it as a gift to those they feel need its help. Throughout the 8 years the circle was able to sit they had the whole range of phenomena from apports to voices and fully formed Spirit people standing amongst them. Four years after Tom originally had this book printed he realised that he had omitted to mention anything about life in the Spirit world and so a folded loose sheet was inserted with each copy; the following year another sheet with the extract from Col. Dixon Smith's book 'New Light on Survival' was also added. We have reproduced the book as Tom first set it up but with the two extra pieces now included in the book itself. The story is more fully told in 'Life After Death: Living Proof'(2008) but this is an introduction to the subject

Teaching Character and Virtue in Schools (Citizenship, Character and Values Education)

Teaching Character and Virtue in Schools addresses the contemporary issues of quantification and measurement in educational settings. The authors draw on the research of the Jubilee Centre at the University of Birmingham in order to investigate the concern that the conventional wisdom, sound judgement and professional discretion of teachers is being diminished and control mistakenly given over to administrators, policymakers and inspectors which in turn is negatively effecting pupils’ character development. The books calls for subject competence to be complemented by practical wisdom and good character in teaching staff. It posits that the constituent virtues of good character can be learned and taught, that education is an intrinsically moral enterprise and that character education should be intentional, organised and reflective. The book draws on the Jubilee Centre’s expertise in support of its claims and successfully integrates the fields of educational studies, psychology, sociology, philosophy and theology in its examination of contemporary educational practices and their wider effect on society as a whole. It offers sample lessons as well as a framework for character education in schools. The book encourages the view that character education is about helping students grasp what is ethically important and how to act for the right reasons so that they can become more autonomous and reflective individuals within the framework of a democratic society. Particularly interested readers will be educational leaders, teachers, those undertaking research in the field of education as well as policy analysts with a keen interest in developing the character and good sense of learners today.
