In "Saddam Hussein: The Politics of Revenge", the author draws on his own knowledge of and extensive contacts within the Arab world to produce both a thorough biography and a penetrating psychological profile of the most powerful and unpredictable man in the world today. He explains why Saddam behaves as he does by suggesting that his life has been marked by a series of personal quests: for recognition after being orphaned and brought up by a destitute uncle; for control of his country; for leadership of the Arab world; for mastery of the technology of destruction, and who now fights for Iraq's survival. This is the chilling story of how the man who, with the encouragement of western governments, made his country the most advanced in the Arab world in the 1970s, and through personal ambition led it to disaster at the end of the 1980s, now fights for its survival.

How do you make something feel finished?On New Year's Eve seventeen-year-old Amira texts the Irish ex-boyfriend she's been missing desperately since they broke up at the end of summer, when she returned to Canada. They agreed they wouldn't be friends, that it would never be enough. But that was then-back when Amira's separated parents had shipped her off to relatives in Dublin for the summer so they could test-drive the idea of getting back together on a long haul cruise. Back when Amira was torn away from a friend in need in Toronto only to fall in love with a Dublin screenwriting class and take a step closer to her dream career. And only to fall for cousin Zoey's bandmate, Darragh, the guy who is first her friend, then her enemy and later something much more complicated-the guy she can say anything to, the guy who makes every inch of her feel wide awake in a way she hadn't known was possible. The guy she confides in about the dead sister she has no living memories of but who has remained with Amira nonetheless. The guy she might never see again. Or is there, despite the distance, somehow still a chance for them?Chock-full of movie references and giddy love for Dublin, Ireland, Just Like You Said It Would Be is a frank exploration of the extraordinary highs and shattering lows of first love that will appeal to fans of Jennifer Echols, Tara Kelly, Sarra Manning, Trish Doller, and Kirsty Eagar.*Just Like You Said It Would Be has been accepted into Library Journal's curated SELF-e Select collection of exceptional quality indie books.

The beauty of great card play at bridge is something we can all admire, even if we can't all aspire to the heights reached by top-class players. Some of the greatest players seem almost to operate instinctively, and most of us probably feel that we could never hope to play at that level. Perhaps, though, if we understood more about their thought processes, it might be possible. The author presents 50 problems in play and defence taken from tournament play, giving the reader a chance to solve them for himself before any discussion takes place. Each problem is analysed, sometimes in great detail, to show how the logic of the situation, when looked at correctly, can lead players at any level to the 'right' solution. But in each case, the reader may be left feeling that the neat, elegant solution is 'easier done than said'!
