This magnificently illustrated book celebrates the English countryside and sounds a warning over threats to it. In the introductory words of film producer David Puttnam, President of the Council for the Protection of Rural England, we all need a beautiful countryside, but securing it demands noisy dispute about the way in which our land is to be used. The CPRE has been at the centre of the argument and this book has been prepared in collaboration with them. Derrik Mercer's inclusive text pulls together all the key issues and problems and details specific projects already underway to help.The specifically commissioned photographs evoke the beauty and variety of the countryside and remind us that it has changed radically in the last 50 years and will change even faster if steps are not taken to conserve it. From national parks to the urban fringe, from heritage coasts to conservation farms, programes have been launched to consere England's natural beauty. As well as a clarion call for the future it is also a book of hope.

Known for their striking full-body tattoos and severed fingertips, Japan's gangsters comprise a criminal class eighty thousand strong—more than four times the size of the American Mafia. Despite their criminal nature, the yakuza are accepted by fellow Japanese to a degree guaranteed to shock most Westerners. Here is the first book to reveal the extraordinary reach of Japan's Mafia. Originally published in 1986, Yakuza was so controversial in Japan that it could not be published there for five years. But in the West it has long served as the standard reference on Japanese organized crime, inspiring novels, screenplays, and criminal investigations. David E. Kaplan and Alec Dubro spent nearly two decades conducting hundreds of interviews with everyone from street-level hoodlums and police to Japan's most powerful godfathers. The result is a searing indictment of corruption in the world's second-largest economy.\nThis updated, expanded, and thoroughly revised edition of Yakuza tells the full story of Japan's remarkable crime syndicates, from their feudal start as bands of medieval outlaws to their emergence as billion-dollar investors in real estate, big business, art, and more.

The standing of Rudyard Kipling, barrackroom balladeer to the common man and poet laureate of the high noon of Empire, has suffered at the hands of our changing social values in the five decades since his death. Now Martin Seymour-Smith has taken advantage of the lifting of constraints so long imposed by the Kipling family with the granting of extensive access to Kipling's personal papers. The resulting biography contains an investigation into Kipling's sexuality as a mainspring of his creativity, and the author's introduction to this edition offers a response to the criticism which his analysis provoked.
