Physical description: xi, 206 pages, 12 pages of plates : portraits ; 25 cm. Notes: Includes index. Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary: This biography of Yehudi Menuhin explores the background to Menuhin's story. Acclaimed as a "second Mozart" as a young boy, he toured the capitals of Europe and America, astounding audiences with his extraordinary playing. Yet, in the 1940s, after the collapse of his first marriage and the horrors of the war, Menuhin's playing seemed to lose its magic. His conducting showed that he was still a powerful interpreter, yet the violin was no longer his "friend". The author attempts to explain the painful loss of Menuhin's exceptional gift and reveals that far from being a "golden childhood", as Menuhin has claimed, his upbringing was stifling. He and his two sisters had few friends of their own age and were claustrophobically over-protected. Though hardly equipped to deal with adult life, marriage seemed their only escape, with devastating consequences for all three. Originally a Channel 4 documentary, this book draws on extensive interviews with Menuhin's family and presents a clear and sympathetic portrait of one of the most remarkable, but also one of the most misunderstood artists of the 20th century. Subjects: Menuhin, Yehudi 1916-1999. Violinists - Biography. Composers &amp; musicians. Genre: Biography. Illustrated.

Mentoring and Preceptorship is a guide to the support roles offered to staff experiencing career transitions - nursing students, the newly qualified, those returning to practice after a career break, and anyone entering a new area or speciality for the first time. It provides help on all aspects of the planning and implementation of learning support systems, together with the background to policy changes in health and education which make the development of both roles essential for the personal and professional development of staff at all levels in their organisations. Intended primarily for nurses, it details the UKCC preceptor requirement and suggests practical ways in which support can be used to enhance the competence and integration of staff in the clinical area.

This well regarded series for students taking the commercial and airline transport pilot licences has been substantially revised to bring it into line with the new European Joint Aviation Requirements (JARs) for flight crew licensing. Each volume deals with the material required by one of the new JAR papers. 
This volume covers the General Navigation paper with the exception of the principles, construction and errors of compasses which are dealt with in the new Instruments volume. Compared with the Navigation section of the old Volume 3 (Navigation General and Instruments) there is much new material, including navigation plotting procedures, the use of navigation computers and a very detailed survey of all charts encountered by modern professional and amateur pilots. The opportunity has been taken to simplify the presentation of information so as to aid revision work. Many test questions and answers have been included, based on the JAR syllabus.
