Book excerpt: "Hudson & Halls: The food of love is more than just a love story, though a love story it certainly is. It is a tale of two television chefs who helped change the bedrock bad attitudes of a nation in the 1970s and 80s to that unspoken thing, homosexuality. Peter Hudson and David Halls became reluctant role models for a 'don't ask, don't tell' generation of gay men and women who lived by omission. They were also captains of a culinary revolution that saw the overthrow of Aunty Daisy and Betty Crocker and the beginnings of Pacific-rich, Asian-styled international cuisine. Their drinking, bitching and bickering on screen, their spontaneous unchoreographed movements across the stage that left cameras and startled production staff exposed broke taboos and melted formalities. They captivated an unlikely bunch of viewers, from middle-aged matrons to bush-shirted blokes. Hudson and Halls were pioneers of celebrity television who rocketed to stardom on untrained talent and a dream"--Title page verso.
Book Synopsis Private Gardens of the Hudson Valley by : Jane Garmey
Download or read book Private Gardens of the Hudson Valley written by Jane Garmey and published by The Monacelli Press, LLC. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Private Gardens of the Hudson Valley surveys the majestic landscape that borders the Hudson River, an area rich in history and unique garden designs. The scenery, which encompasses riverfront meadows, craggy hills, and long open valleys, is inherently dramatic. Twenty-six private gardens are presented here, chosen to establish a sense of place and to convey the romance of the landscape. John Hall’s photographs give a privileged view of the life within, while Jane Garmey’s warm and engaging narrative traces the development of the gardens and the great pleasure their owners take in nurturing them. As Garmey notes in her introduction, each of these gardens has been made by the owner, and special attention given to the transition between the cultivated garden and the grandeur of the larger landscape beyond. The splendid setting of the Hudson Valley encompasses an almost infinite variety of design approaches from formal and traditional to naturalistic and an equal range of scale from multiple gardens within a vast estate to charmingly diminutive spaces between historic village houses. All have much to tell us about the complexity, challenges, and finally the unforgettable pleasure of making a garden.
Book Synopsis Inventions That Didn't Change the World by : Julie Halls
Download or read book Inventions That Didn't Change the World written by Julie Halls and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2014-12-09 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A captivating, humorous, and downright perplexing selection of nineteenth-century inventions as revealed through remarkable–and hitherto unseen–illustrations from the British National Archive Inventions that Didn’t Change the World is a fascinating visual tour through some of the most bizarre inventions registered with the British authorities in the nineteenth century. In an era when Britain was the workshop of the world, design protection (nowadays patenting) was all the rage, and the apparently lenient approval process meant that all manner of bizarre curiosities were painstakingly recorded, in beautiful color illustrations and well-penned explanatory text, alongside the genuinely great inventions of the period. Irreverent commentary contextualizes each submission as well as taking a humorous view on how each has stood the test of time. This book introduces such gems as a ventilating top hat; an artificial leech; a design for an aerial machine adapted for the arctic regions; an anti-explosive alarm whistle; a tennis racket with ball-picker; and a currant-cleaning machine. Here is everything the end user could possibly require for a problem he never knew he had. Organized by area of application—industry, clothing, transportation, medical, health and safety, the home, and leisure—Inventions that Didn’t Change the World reveals the concerns of a bygone era giddy with the possibilities of a newly industrialized world.

Book Synopsis Why Can't You Afford a Home? by : Josh Ryan-Collins
Download or read book Why Can't You Afford a Home? written by Josh Ryan-Collins and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-11-26 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the Western world, a whole generation is being priced out of the housing market. For millions of people, particularly millennials, the basic goal of acquiring decent, affordable accommodation is a distant dream. Leading economist Josh Ryan-Collins argues that to understand this crisis, we must examine a crucial paradox at the heart of modern capitalism. The interaction of private home ownership and a lightly regulated commercial banking system leads to a feedback cycle. Unlimited credit and money flows into an inherently finite supply of property, which causes rising house prices, declining home ownership, rising inequality and debt, stagnant growth and financial instability. Radical reforms are needed to break the cycle. This engaging and topical book will be essential reading for anyone who wants to understand why they can’t find an affordable home, and what we can do about it.

Download or read book The Blind Child written by Rudo Moyo and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-06-12 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book highlights the problems and challenges encountered by disabled people especially the blind in their endeavour to climb the social ladder. It is a portrayal of the negative attitude among the public at large towards disability. Society associates disabled people with failure and under achievement which is of course untrue. The book is indeed an autobiography of the author himself as he struggled with social prejudices and marginalisation in country where there was scarcity of resources. The main character Tarutamba is Rudo himself and Mutsai is his wife Mukai. The book shows how vulnerable visually impaired people are. They are taken advantage of by playmates, family members and other misguided members of the society. It should be remembered that visual impairment is in the eyes and therefore blind people are capable of doing a lot of things which do not require sight. Males can impregnant whilst females can be impregnanted. The account also tries to give encouragement to those members of society who are disabled and therefore render themselves useless. The book is also a mirror of social practices and beliefs of the people of Belingwe in Zimbabwe. Its other aspect is the manner in which the way of the natives life is disrupted by the advent of the white men.
