The achievements of Elvis Presley and Buddy Holly, two of the greatest popular musical figures of the Twentieth Century have been extensively documented. This book describes the artists' early years, comparing their backgrounds and influences, chronicling their meetings and examining the many amazing parallels in their lives.
The plane crash of 3 February 1959 which claimed the life of Buddy Holly was both a human tragedy, and a tragedy for rock'n'roll. This book draws together a mass of Buddy Holly facts and information from a variety of published sources.
For nearly 20 years the National Physical Laboratory was operated on behalf of government by NPL Management Limited, a private company formed in 1995 specifically for that purpose. As Finance Director for almost the entire period, Alan Mann charts its transformation from a government agency to a thriving commercial business whilst at the same time protecting its scientific integrity and standing as one of the top three metrology institutes in the world. This could not have been achieved without a common understanding of shared values encapsulated in a document – ‘partnering in practice’ which remains as relevant today as it did then. His story describes how, through a period of government changes, political intrigue, economic upheaval and decant of operations from 82 buildings to a new state-of-the-art laboratory, it still emerged as a stronger and fitter organisation. It discusses the fundamentals that supported this sometimes uncomfortable cultural shift and how a truly effective partnership can be of significant benefit to government, the private sector and the taxpaying public alike.
A fresh—and perhaps controversial—look at Jesus by one of Britain’s most respected Christian authors. Who is the real Jesus? Do we remake him in our own image and then wonder why our spirituality is less than life-changing and exciting? Steve Chalke—a high-profile visionary in the United Kingdom and an evangelical recognized not only by Christians but by the general public as well—believes that the real Jesus is deeply challenging. And each new generation must grapple with the question of who he is, because only through a constant study of Jesus are we able to discover God himself. The Lost Message of Jesus is written to stir thoughtful debate and pose fresh questions that will help create a deeper understanding of Jesus and his message. It is an encounter with the real Jesus of his world—not the Jesus we try to mold to ours. Themes include: •The Kingdom of God—shalom—is available to everyone now, through Jesus •The world outside your own church needs to hear of the depth of God’s love and suffering •Jesus was a radical and a revolutionary! •Jesus offers immediate forgiveness, without cost, to anyone •Jesus shows us repentance isn’t a guilt-laden list of dos and don’ts, but an inspirational vision of a new way to live Focusing on some of the key episodes, events, and issues of Jesus’ life, we will see how too often the message we preach today has been influenced more by the culture we live in than the radical, life-changing, world-shaping message Jesus shared two thousand years ago.

Thomas's worst fears came true. As a young man, he faced active duty in the First World War as a medical officer, only to witness his children drawn remorselessly into the Second, two of the most significant conflicts in human history. However, out of the inevitable devastation came something more powerful - unquestioning love, in all its manifestations - from the dedicated care of the injured to the intense passion of unexpected romantic encounters, lasting a lifetime. From his copious diaries, Thomas resolved to record his and his family's experiences in a chronicle so that future generations might fully appreciate their legacy. It became an epic tome, a labour of love, describing their determination, courage, and self-sacrifice - an inspiration to all who opened its pages. Not only was history repeating itself, but extraordinary parallels between two generations in England and France were revealed, uncovering even more remarkable stories.
Harry Alan Towers' reputation rests upon a corpus of 95 low-budget productions shot post-haste in every corner of the globe. He took an integral part, however, in the development of the protocols that now underpin much transnational film production and he must be regarded as a pioneer. Towers' slash and burn strategy focused on parasitic, back-to-back productions, funded by rights bundles that were pre-sold globally. This strategy was substantially derived from his early days in broadcasting wherein he acted as a go-between in the American and the British Commonwealth markets. Though he became adept at procuring funds from pariah regimes and black market economies, primarily he continued to act as a broker bringing together American equity investment and European finance under the auspices of EC co-production agreements. He was also quick to exploit the burgeoning niche markets becoming available in the wake of technological developments and government initiatives.

This new Blackstone's Guide provides the complete text of the Companies Act 2006, together with a clear explanation of the legislation and its impact. The Companies Act is a major piece of legislation - comprising 1300 sections and 16 schedules. It represents an attempt to reform company law for the 21st century in accordance with the Government's stated objectives of encouraging small companies, promoting shareholder involvement and fostering a long term investment culture. It puts whole areas of company law which are the product of the common law such as directors' duties and derivative actions on a statutory basis for the first time, and implements EU Directives on Takeovers and Transparency Obligations. The 2006 Act almost completely consolidates companies legislation in one place with only a few minor provisions remaining in the 1985 Act. This Guide provides a clear analysis of the new legislation, explaining both its genesis and likely effect. The authors adopt a topic-based approach, focussing on the most important changes and developments for both private and public companies. The Blackstone's Guide Series delivers concise and accessible books covering the latest legislative changes and amendments. Published soon after enactment, they offer timely and expert commentary on the meaning and effects of the legislation, plus a copy of the Act itself. The Guides are a cost-effective solution to key information needs and are the perfect companion for any practitioner needing to get up to speed with the latest changes.
