With comprehensive details of every episode, writer, director and actor, this is an invaluable reference source not just for MINDER fans but anyone interested in television history. This new edition is updated, revised and expanded from the bestselling 2002 edition (titled 'The Phenomenon That Was Minder'), now with discussion of the new MINDER series in 2009, 'missing' material not intended for general transmission, and information on MINDER in Australia, where the show had its biggest success outside Britain. The Author: Cockney born and bred, raised in and around East London, a committed 'Minderphile', and with extensive research and writing experience, Brian Hawkins was the ideal person to put together this fascinating and detailed study of an important chapter of British television history.

Sleep, or rather the lack of it, is the issue of paramount concern to the overwhelming majority of new parents. Getting enough sleep is vital for the health of a growing baby or toddler, and the sanity of mums and dads. Yet striking the right balance between their differing needs can be hard to achieve. Once sleep problems set in, they can fast demoralise and exhaust parents, undermining confidence in their ability to cope. Gina Ford has come to the rescue with her answer: the key to a good night's sleep for the whole family lies in teaching parents to understand the changing sleep needs of their growing baby. This book informs and reassures parents, dispelling many common myths and anxieties and offering practical solutions that work. By creating a structure of regular feeding, sleeping and playing times, Gina explains how parents can help their baby to find a rhythm that will be comfortable for all concerned. Whether parents want to establish good sleeping habits from the start, or find they need to cure sleep problems and get their child back on track, Gina has the answers.

"One of the most important Stoic philosophers is Epictetus. Epictetus (c. 50 - 135 CE) was a Greek enslaved person who established an important school of Stoic philosophy in Rome. Epictetus is appreciated for his clear, good-humored way of explaining difficult ideas and his focus on daily life rather than metaphysics. This may be because he did not write down his lectures and discourses, as Marcus and Seneca did-rather, he delivered them aloud and they were carefully recorded by his students. Thus we should not refer to them as "writings" but as "works." The complete oeuvre consists of his popular handbook on virtue (enchiridion), also known as "The Art of Living," a set of discourses, and a number of fragments. This set of translations, framed by an introduction and notes, is geared expressly to general readers and students, though it will be enormously helpful to scholars as well"--

Do you have a baldy clue as to who the bears and junglies are? Confused by the thought of some cheekywatter from your cargo? Fancy a day out at Fort Weetabix? Or would you rather settle down with some swedgers? After all, you don't want to be a stank dodger. Confused? You need this book. Michael Munro has won the eternal gratitude of Glaswegians for his efforts in popularising their city's dialect, universally known as the 'patter'. This book is the most extensive collection of this rich and expressive language ever made. Often hilarious, sometimes coarse (but never dull!), good knowledge of the patter is the key to understanding Glasgow and its inhabitants.

The Complete Novels of Charles Dickens (Illustrated Edition) presents a comprehensive collection of Dickens' iconic works such as 'Oliver Twist', 'Great Expectations', and 'A Tale of Two Cities'. This edition includes vibrant illustrations that bring to life the vivid characters and settings created by Dickens. Known for his social commentary, intricate plots, and memorable characters, Dickens' writing style blends realism with humor and sentimentality, making his novels timeless classics in English literature. Each novel explores themes of poverty, injustice, and redemption, set against the backdrop of Victorian England, showcasing Dickens' keen observations of society. Readers can immerse themselves in the detailed descriptions and rich dialogue that characterize Dickens' unique storytelling. Charles Dickens, a prominent Victorian novelist, drew inspiration from his own tumultuous life experiences, including childhood poverty and struggles with social inequality. His firsthand encounters with the harsh realities of industrial London fueled his writing and deepened his empathy for the marginalized in society. Dickens' commitment to advocating for social reform is evident in his literary works, as he sheds light on the plight of the lower classes and calls for compassion and understanding. I highly recommend The Complete Novels of Charles Dickens (Illustrated Edition) to readers who appreciate classic literature, rich storytelling, and profound social commentary. This collection not only offers a glimpse into Victorian society but also showcases Dickens' enduring influence on literature and his timeless relevance in addressing universal themes of human nature and society.
