Fury of the Beast is the final chapter of the international French eco-terrorist group, which has taken its name, 'Le Gang de la Cl de Singe', from Edward Abbey's novel The Monkey Wrench Gang. Le Gang de la Cl de Singe encounters many enemies, from elephant poachers in Africa to Japanese whalers in the Antarctic. Their targets range from Spain's most famous matador to have an International poacher meet his fate with the Death Worm of the Gobi Desert. The members of Le Gang de la Cl de Singe always leave a special calling card of a yellow flag emblazoned with a black skull with crossed wrenches hung around their victim's necks, along with a note telling why they took the action they did. They are ruthless and show no mercy, be it man or woman there are no exceptions. They are considered by just about every nation to be pirates & outlaws and are constantly on the run, they are backed and well financed by a secret international syndicate who support their cause in fighting the greed and self-righteous belief that the world is ours to destroy. They combat their adversaries in the only language they feel will be understood, death.

Ultima Thule; Or, A Summer in Iceland. Vol. 1 (Edition1)

Originally published in 1985, this book is concerned with the housing and service needs of the poor in Latin America and how they are articulated and satisfied. It examines the aims and implementation of government policies towards low-income housing dwellers and tries to relate those policies to the wider interests of the state. It discusses how the poor perceive the constraints on barrio servicing and improvement, their involvement in community organisations and the role the community and its leaders play in influencing state action. Since housing and servicing issues directly impinge on the interests of politicians, bureaucrats, landowners and real-estate developers, as well as on those of the poor, patterns of provision mirror closely the nature of the relationships between the poor and the wider urban society. The main theme of this book is thus the allocation of resources within urban society and the operation of political and administrative power at city level. The book will interest not only those concerned with housing and planning but also those who wish to understand social and economic policies towards the poor in most kinds of Third World city.
