About this deal

Leading work expert Nick Williams has identified the twelve principles of the work you were born to do. unknown date – Persephone Books is founded in Bloomsbury, London, by Nicola Beauman, to reprint mid-20th century fiction and non-fiction, mainly by women. First book I’ve read since having a child and absolutely perfect for reading late at night when you’re waiting to sleep! In the words of the author, Century is "an attempt to outline the history of the twentieth century as the camera has seen it. While the retelling of Man Utd's famous treble-winning season in 1999 is excellent in terms of what happened on and off the pitch, it's actually the cultural and political context of 90s Britain that Matt Dickinson weaves throughout that really makes this a compelling read.

To serve and inspire others on a bigger scale – by then I had been pioneering in my own life for over a decade and wanted to share what I had learned. Driven by the indomitable will of skipper Roy Keane , supported by a nucleus from the Class of 92 - Beckham, Nicky Butt, Ryan Giggs, the Nevilles and Paul Scholes - who had grown up at the club, they went on a long unbeaten and unbeatable run, featuring some of the most dramatic games in English football history. He shows how we can activate these principles to amazing effect and utilise our inner power at whatever stage we have reached in our working lives.Everywhere hailed as a novel of rare beauty and power, White Oleander tells the unforgettable story of Ingrid, a brilliant poet imprisoned for murder, and her daughter, Astrid, whose odyssey through a series of Los Angeles foster homes--each its own universe, with its own laws, its own dangers, its own hard lessons to be learned--becomes a redeeming and surprising journey of self-discovery. WINNER OF FOOTBALL BOOK OF THE YEAR AT THE BRITISH SPORTS BOOK AWARDSLONGLISTED FOR THE WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARDIn 1999, Manchester United completed a unique Treble, winning the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League - but more remarkable than that was how they did it, and the stories behind the historic achievement. But this leaves it feeling more like an anthology and gives the book a collage-like quality I felt, patching together snippets from various sources rather than focusing on Dickinson's own take.

Reading this I relived it as an adult, rewatching every match highlights along with each chapter, a great way to experience this book that transports you back to never achieved again feet of the 1999 treble. Not just the ridiculous results and the ludicrous comebacks, but the characters involved: Keane, Beckham, Schmeichel, Neville, Giggs, and of course at the heart of it all, Ferguson.These changes, coupled with the legal aid reforms and the intended extension of conditional and contingency fees (following the decision of the Court of Appeal in Thai Trading v. Nonfiction isn't really my bag, but when my beloved United are involved I will probably read all the recounts and autobiographies.

United fans will score this higher than non-United fans, but still a well written book for anybody who remembers that season, or those who never lived it and want a glimpse of it. But this time Melinda fights back, refuses to be silent, and thereby achieves a measure of vindication. In one source it presents, the complete Rules for the High Court, Court of Appeal (Civil Division) and County Courts, with accompanying commentary from a distinguished team of over twenty expert editors. He’s pretty good about eating his vegetables and seems to like broccoli, spinach, and brussels sprouts. Totally unlike today, nearly every player was a character with leadership skills - a team of 11 captains.The technical storage or access is strictly necessary for the legitimate purpose of enabling the use of a specific service explicitly requested by the subscriber or user, or for the sole purpose of carrying out the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network.
