The internationally acclaimed dramatist Edward Bond endures as one of the towering figures of contemporary British theatre. His plays are read at schools and university level. "Edward Bond is the most radical playwright to have emerged from the sixti This collected volume contains three plays which continue Edward Bond's exploration of themes from Shakespeare and other classical authors. Bingo puts Shakespeare himself on stage in a critical account of the writer and Stratford landowner's final days. The Fool is based on the life and madness of the 19th-century working-class poet John Clare and The Woman is set at the end of the Trojan War with Hecuba as a main character, but instead of offering a resolution its Tempest-like second half defines the nature of social conflict. All three plays deal with the origins of the tensions of the modern world. Also included is Stone, a one-act parable of oppression. Edward Bond is "a great playwright - many, particularly in continental Europe, would say the greatest living English playwright" (Independent)

In a 24/7 world and a global economy, there is no doubt that relationships impact virtually every economic transaction. In Relationship Economics, Lindon Robison and Bryan Ritchie argue that what needs to be understood is not just whether relationships matter (which, of course, they do), but also, how much, and in what circumstances they should matter. Providing a rigorous and measurable definition of the way that relationships among individuals create a capital, social capital, that can be saved, spent, and used like other forms of capital, Robison and Ritchie use numerous examples and insightful analysis, to explain how social capital shapes our ability to reduce poverty, understand corruption, encourage democracy, facilitate income equality, and respond to globalization. The first part of the book explains how social capital can be manipulated, stored, expended, and invested. The second part explores how levels of social capital within relationships influence economic transactions both positively and negatively, which in turn shape poverty levels, economic efficiency, levels and types of political participation, and institutional structures.

About the Book This is a story of a boy–spending his first grade through half of sixth grade (1948-53) on a rural NY farm in a foster-type environment. Farm work happens every day and the only thing he can control is his mind. A close UFO encounter that occurs near the end of his internment on the farm turns his mind toward science and unknown paths of endeavor in manufacturing and the wild. In 1962, the largest Rochester manufacturing unit is his first encounter with highly educated and driven management. They want reasonably competent, obedient, yes men, which is a sad reminder of life on the farm. Michael resents exacting bosses who use people to achieve their personal goals while giving workers little in return. He desires and thrives in the wild world of creation, science, experimental fixtures, and the unknown. Happiness is out there in the form of poetry, painting, dream control, gravity and his last good job, which is at Xerox. His desire of retribution against the system fades as he realizes the Lord has helped him all along.
