In the aftermath of the Second World War, the long-established Rover company of Solihull was fighting to survive. It needed a vehicle that would give it an advantage over its rivals. Taking the American Willys Jeep as inspiration, Rover designers came up with a four-wheel-drive utility vehicle that would become an all-time classic. The Land Rover has undergone a number of facelifts in its sixty-year life, but the vehicle still made today is fundamentally very close to the 1948 original. After 1970 the original was joined by a host of other models including the Discovery, Range Rover, and Freelander. This is this story of Land Rover, written by the foremost historian of the make, encompassing all the models and dividing them according to their use. The distinguished histories of Land Rover on expedition, in agriculture, warfare, and in many other fields are told separately.

The red double decker bus is one of the enduring images of London. Although now increasingly replaced by modern bendy buses, the classic rear-entrance double-decker still appears on postcards, keyrings, t-shirts and other tourist souvenirs. Successor to the horse-drawn London buses of the nineteenth century, the B-type double-decker first appeared in the Edwardian period, and was the first in a classic line of London motorbuses. Take a trip back in time to explore the story of the London bus, from horse-drawn to bendy bus. With special attention paid to the much-loved double-decker, the author discusses bus design, manufacture and operation, plus the work of drivers and conductors, making this the perfect celebration of the best-loved bus in the world.

The Human Primer illuminates our most basic common denominators for being human. Everything you will ever think, feel or do distills down to the same exact common denominators regardless of where you are being human on our planet. Location doesn't matter. Culture doesn't matter. Race, gender and age don't matter. We must all be human. Knowing how to be human is the greatest knowledge anyone can possess and it is identical for us all. If you are human, you might find it useful to know how you are being human. It is really that simple.All the mainstream sciences have discovered the impact humans have on human biology, chemistry, DNA and the quantum level. When we make a decision (free will) we can now see and measure that impact. We have always been, always will be and currently are impacting ourselves and the planet. It is time we all learned HOW we are doing it. The Human Primer explains the "How" through a cast of characters. There is Grandpa, Mom, Cousin Gene, Bubba, Goober and a cast of party animals. All members of the "The Atoms Family" - your family. As you will see, your entire worldview changes when the Atoms Family shows up. Discerning today's rhetoric, disinformation, propaganda and bias can be a daunting task. The Human Primer provides a new lens to distill your observation, assessment and buy-in skills down to a very simple filter.... by inviting the Atoms Family to the party. When the Family shows up, you will realize all sources of persuasion asking you to adopt their views and ideas to hate, anger and fear are really asking you to throw your family under the bus tires Should you buy into their negative disposition, you will cause your cells to stop reproducing, deteriorate your immune system, cause your DNA to react, affect your body chemistry and most importantly cause your own energy field to go negative which affects "Mom" - the electromagnetic field around the planet. This new lens illuminates the intended outcome and effect caused by the idea they are selling (bus tires)... so you simply opt out. It will become obvious that every free-willed moment in your daily existence is either making MOM happy or not. "If Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy" is actually true. Seven billion people on the planet are doing exactly the same thing using their locally-sold justifications to throw their families under the bus and affect Mom... positively or negatively. The resulting demeanor of Mom's frequency is measurable. This is Human Primer knowledge. It is just the science underneath it all. It is time you met the Atom's Family.

The Story: Emrick Mastaglia becomes the first woman head coach in the NBA when she takes over for her late father. A dream job becomes a reality. She was raised on pick and rolls and jump shots and is more than ready for the challenge. What she isn't ready for is the games behind the game. Her father never taught her about those. Now, she wishes he had. This job is way more complicated than just coaching. She is making history, but what will that history reveal? The Team: The Dallas Shooters. Owned by Robert Parasyn. He is actively seeking investors, the offer increasing from 10% to 40% seemingly overnight. What isn't he telling potential investors? Investor: Dillon Lennox is looking into the Shooters team on her father's behalf since he is currently in France at the Paris headquarters of Lennox Industries. Dillon sees Emrick as just another conquest until they actually sleep together. That changes everything for her. This time it's different; more than just fun and games. But Emrick knows the score and what kind of woman Dillon is and she's ready to move on. She's way too busy being under the microscope of public opinion to worry about what Dillon might think. The problem: Dillon digs into the books as part of the due diligence of investing in the team and soon becomes uneasy. It's not something she can point to and say this is off. But there is something wrong and it's hiding just out of sight. She wonders if Emrick is part of it. She wonders if Robert Parasyn is part of it. She wonders what the hell "it" is. She vows to find out, if only to ease her mind that the woman who occupies too much of her mind is not involved. What will she do if Emrick is involved in something nefarious? Will the team flounder or flourish under Emrick's rule? Will the public condemn her just because she's a woman, or will they rally behind her? Will they even give her a chance to find out? And is the team owner just using her as a marketing opportunity until he can get a 'real' coach in there next year? Read on to find the answers. There might be a couple of twists you're not prepared for-or maybe you are. Come find out
