This book by London food and drink expert Susan Cohen helps narrow down the selection by presenting the crème de la crème of hot cocktail spots in London. 
London's Best Cocktail Bars is the hippest, most up-to-date guide to London's diverse and stylish cocktail scene.

An academic historian with a special interest in British Victorian and Edwardian social life, author Susan Cohen is sure not to skimp on the history of cocktails. For example, did you know that some of our most celebrated cocktails—martinis, daiquiris, and the Manhattan—first appeared right around Prohibition? Shortly after, speakeasies opened underground, and as a result, bartenders became more creative with their cocktail recipes.
These factoids and others are what make this book the perfect gift for Anglophiles, and a delightful guide for cocktail enthusiasts who want to immerse themselves in London drink history and then experience the local flair for themselves. Some of the venues presented in the book even offer cocktail masterclasses so you can hone your skills and become a master of mixology yourself!

Peripheral Concerns examines the influence of one "core" region of the ancient Near Eastern world-Egypt-on urban development in the southern Levant in the Early and Middle Bronze Ages, with emphasis on the relative stability and sustainability of this development in each era. The study utilizes a very broad scale "macro" approach to examine urban development using core-periphery theories, specifically in regard to southern Levantine-Egyptian interactions.While many studies examine urban development in both the Early Bronze Age and the Middle Bronze Age, few compare this phenomenon in the two periods. Likewise, there are few studies of urban development in the southern Levant that compare contemporary Egyptian policies in that region to those in Nubia, despite the fact that Egyptian activities linked the eastern Mediterranean, the Nile Valley, and Nubia into one interactive system. The broad chronological and geographic framework utilized in this study therefore allows for a new approach to urban development in the southern Levant.

Susan Cohen takes a nostalgic look at the world's most popular beverage, tea. The experience of taking tea is steeped in history, ritual and tradition and this book looks at that fascinating story from all angles - the tea leaf, tea ceremonies, the customs and habits associated with taking tea and the paraphernalia that surrounds it. This section concludes with a look at the extraordinary way in which tea became linked with dance and music, resulting in the tea dance, an event that is still popular today. The second section of the book looks at over 50 places in Britain where afternoon tea can be enjoyed. There are over 25 suggestions for London, from the opulent splendour of the Lanesborough and the Ritz, to the architectural wonder of the Great Court at the British Museum and the warmth of Louis Patisserie. There are also recommendations for places to take tea in the great historical cities, such as Bath, Oxford, York, Edinburgh, Cambridge and Windsor and the beauty spots of the Lake District, the Cotswolds and Devon.
