The southeastern corner of England is a densely populated region but one which holds many rich bird habitats. For example, on the south coast of East Sussex and Kent there are undisturbed shingle beaches supporting nationally important tern colonies, and inland there are Surrey heaths, important for many nationally scarce species like Dartford Warbler and Woodlark. In north Kent there is a network of important sites along the Swale estuary which are of great importance for passage and wintering waders and wildfowl. These counties also often attract large numbers of passage migrants, including vagrant rarities from the continent. This manual explores the best birding sites in Kent, Surrey and Sussex. Several new sites have been added to this revised and updated fourth edition. Each site is described in terms of habitat, species, access and timing, and the volume is illustrated throughout with line drawings and maps of each site. The manual seeks to enable birders to plan productive trips at any time of the year."

Since it was first performed in Athens in the 420s BC, Oedipus the King has been widely regarded as Sophocles' greatest tragedy and one of the foundation stones of western drama. Taken as a model by Aristotle in his Poetics, it became a yardstick for future generations. Since the play's rediscovery in the Renaissance, audiences - including Sigmund Freud - have found new interpretations and meanings in Sophocles' portrayal of the Theban king, inexorably pursuing the truth, only to discover that he has killed his father and married his mother. 
 This translation by Don Taylor, accurate yet poetic, was made for a BBC TV production of the Theban Plays in 1986, which he also directed. Commentary and notes by Angie Varakis.

Up Against the Wal-Marts presents a potent arsenal of strategies, tips, and advice collected from hundreds of small retailers who've successfully defended their markets against retailing Goliaths. It shows how you can combat cutthroat pricing, regain customer focus, identify and seize profitable market niches - and much more. Taylor and Archer identify ten survival strategies guaranteed to help you compete effectively and stay focused on change. You'll need to devote yourself to satisfying your customers; study the success of others; gather and analyze management information regularly; sharpen your marketing skills; increase the customer's perception of value; position your business uniquely; eliminate waste; find something to improve every day; embrace change with a positive attitude; and pull the trigger and start the battle. Both insightful and pragmatic, Up Against the Wal-Marts explores the ten strategies in detail and presents the reasons customers are flocking to the mass merchandisers and what to do to reverse the trend, low-cost advertising and promotion strategies that generate new business, the six-step customer service technique guaranteed to bring customers back again and again, the critical variable-pricing method that produces profits and gives customers the perception of value, the pieces of the financial puzzle that every business owner must have to survive, and hands-on management techniques to make your business grow. Up Against the Wal-Marts shows you how to turn your knowledge into market share - no matter how large the shadow of the mass merchandisers may loom.
