Book Description
Political prisoner and AIDS activist David Gilbert exposes the right-wing, racist and homophobic foundations of conspiracy theories surrounding the origins of AIDS, and shows how these in fact serve to divert attention from the less spectacular but all-too-real genocide facing Black people today. Includes commentary by the late Albert 'Nuh' Washington, BLA POW and others, and a special appendix on HIV causing AIDS.
Book Description
The entirety of the British Civil War has never been covered in a single volume--until now. While it is usually seen as an English conflict, Royle paints the picture on a large canvas to show that it engulfed the entirety of Great Britain. While the war began as the result of the Scots' unwillingness to accept Charles I's prayer book, their obstinacy inspired the Irish Catholics to rise against their English and Scot oppressors with the result that fourteen years internecine fighting was to be the norm for these islands. This is grand narrative military history at its best and a monumental achievement.

The fog of war history cleared.......2006-04-23
War can be a confusing time, and many are the wars fought over a long period for reasons that are hard to fathom. The English Civil War is, I think, one such case. In Civil War, Trevor Royle has taken some effort to sort out the convoluted happenings that led to and unfolded during the fighting.
Throughout, Royle takes the time to explain that the war took place in three kingdoms, so the term English Civil War is perhaps a misnomer. The subtitle is The Wars of the Three Kingdoms 1638-1660, and this makes a more descriptive and accurate term. However, it is the action in England and Scotland that is more dominant, with Ireland playing a seemingly lesser role in the overall events.
The book is exhaustive in its approach, sparing little in the detail. This can make for confusing reading for the reader, such as myself, who is mostly unfamiliar with the events and persons involved. All too often I found myself wondering which general was on which side and forgetting what brought the armies together at a particular time and place. As another reviewer has pointed out, there is a strong emphasis on military actions, particularly once the fighting begins. In the beginning and again at the end, Royle does try to bring it all together, with discussion on how the war was remembered in the popular consciousness that even includes brief mention of the much later American Revolution. Overall, however, the style is demanding of the reader. With proper attention, the interested reader can obtain clear and valuable insights into the issues that led to and came from the war and how it all influenced the subsequent development of British history.
Primarily a military history.......2005-08-16
This is primarily a history of the various and confusing wars in the Stuart/Cromwell era rather tha the political or religious issues. The book's greatest strength is the way it connects the events in the three kingdoms -- England, Ireland, and Scotland --which is essential to see the overall picture in a confusing time. This Royle does well. I would have liked more discussion of the religious issues and a bit less on the battle details, but otherwise a fine history.

Book Description
The years 1642 to 1651 were one of the bloodiest and most important periods in British history, as a series of civil wars brought backers of monarchy into death-struggle against supporters of a parliament. Follow the armies of Charles the First against those of Oliver Cromwell. Witness the only British king ever executed. Over 300 photos, 100 in color, offer authentic reconstructions of decisive battles, with complete details about winning commanders, tactics, and weapons.
Book Description
This is the second edition of Ronald Hutton's popular book on the unique period of history during which the British Isles were united under the rule of a republic, represented by a government and a series of Parliaments sitting at Westminster. It includes a new introductory section in which the author reviews the research undertaken into this period since the first edition appeared in 1990, and provides a personal and critical evaluation of it.
Book Description
In Cromwell, award-winning biographer Antonia Fraser tells of one of England's most celebrated and controversial figures, often misunderstood and demonized as a puritanical zealot. Oliver Cromwell rose from humble beginnings to spearhead the rebellion against King Charles I, who was beheaded in 1649, and led his soldiers into the last battle against the Royalists and King Charles II at Worcester, ending the civil war in 1651. Fraser shows how England's prestige and prosperity grew under Cromwell, reversing the decline it had suffered since Queen Elizabeth I's death.
Customer Reviews:
Great soldier but terrible political leader.......2007-10-07
Growing up an Irish Catholic American, I grew up hating Oliver Cromwell without really knowing why (an influence of my Irish grandmother). Fraser's biography of this brilliant and driven soldier is thoroughly researched and surprisingly sympathetic. She gives a great insight into what drove this man as well as giving a broad look at the political, cultural, and religious influences behind the brutal English Civil War. Cromwell was a brilliant general whose strategic and tactical genious beat the King's trained forces. His genius, unfortunately, did not extend to the political sphere. This is a great account of a flawed individual.
Nasty, Brutish, and Long.......2005-09-22
Most of my review will echo the discontents expressed by my fellow reviewers, but I hope I can provide an original analysis. If you are deliberating on whether to read this book, do not delve into the lengthy journey without prior knowledge of Cromwell. A more terse and concise biography is more suitable for the beginner. Antonia Fraser knows this time period intimately, and she would probably be incapable to produce a more superficial work on such a massive figure in English history. Although there is a small amount of side information and exposition about the historical events surrounding Cromwell (e.g., The English Civil War), the reader gets the feeling that the author assumes that we know much of the pertinent information already. This causes the novice reader on Cromwell to tend to find herself lost during some of the key events in his life. With some prior knowledge of the time period, this confusion could be avoided.
Antonia Fraser is an erudite writer with stylistic flair, but is also painfully verbose. The sentences are often long and protracted, often with frequent use of the characteristic British punctuation, the semicolon. The result is a biography that is over a hundred pages too long. This is especially true when one considers that this biography is purely a narrative, and there is little writing that delves into the theoretical and political ideas that motivated Cromwell. This may be because Cromwell was motivated by fanatical and zealous devotion to his religion. When one is so enthralled by an unsubstantiated, uncouth dogma, there is little room to ponder questions when an inept but clear answer is to be found. Cromwell was not a theoretician, but a pragmatic man. This is interesting because most of his language and actions are littered with references to the metaphysical, however crude and obtuse those references and underlying thoughts are.
Fraser paints Cromwell as an avuncular, charming man whose religious ethics seeped into his daily actions. While this may be true when applied to his personal life, it is impossible to reconcile this image with the man who sanctioned and even performed atrocities during his invasion of Ireland. The motivation for Fraser's subtle attempt at vindicating Cromwell can only be speculated on, but perhaps she is so enamored with English history that it became nature for her to fall in love with one of its heroes. Whatever the motivation, the bias is there, and needs to be acknowledged.
For those that merely want to get a sense of who Cromwell was and the time period he lived in, a shorter biography will suffice. Try and pick one without the verbosity and slight sycophancy of Fraser.
Detailed, pro-Cromwell, and a bit too long.......2004-01-19
Cromwell is perhaps the single most controversial figure in English history. Only John and Richard III have attracted as much venom as he has, and there are still people alive today who hate him -- see some of the other reviews here for at least one example. Naturally the truth is complicated, and Fraser lays out a good deal of detail in support of her case, which is that Cromwell was much maligned, and was on the whole a good and religious man trying hard to do what he thought was right.
I had no prior belief about Cromwell, but I have to say Fraser convinced me rather of the opposite -- that he was a religious fanatic, brilliant but limited, who was neither a great ruler nor personally very admirable. Her apologies for some of his worst sins, such as the terrible events in Ireland, are outlandish.
On the plus side, this is a thorough and detailed book, with enough information to allow a reader to make up their own mind. Fraser does at least keep the facts separate from her opinions. The book is excellent on Cromwell himself; it's pretty good on details of the Civil Wars, though it doesn't go to the level that an exclusively military history might. However, it's surprisingly weak on the overall political background. To truly understand Cromwell you need to know what came before and after. I would have liked to see more about the religious state of the country, and why it got that way, and also about the Revolution of only thirty years after his death. But in concentrating on Cromwell the man (at perhaps too great a length), Fraser has skimped on the surrounding politics.
Overall, I'd recommend this only if you're deeply interested in knowing a lot about Cromwell's life, or if you already know the political and religious framework of the years 1640-1660. If you know both, this is a fine book (allowing for Fraser's open bias) but it's no place to start.
One other note: the paperback edition (which is what I have) does not have any of the photographs or other plates that are apparently in the hardback -- Fraser makes occasional reference to "the plate opposite page 709" and so on, so I would bear that in mind in choosing between the two editions.
Yet another attempted read from Fraser.......2003-12-28
As an Irish woman, I have hated Cromwell since early adolescence, yet never quite knew the history as to why, other than the fact that it was just what I should do. I felt the opinion incomplete and unfounded, as well as impossible to defend and when I came upon this book, chose to give it a read and discover for myself if in fact I hated him with purpose and full knowledge, or just blind adherence to a certain unspoken code. And after giving up two chapters into the book, I realized the truth behind my searching, hate is the correct emotion, only it is now directed at the author, Antonia Fraser.
I do not disrespect due to her opinion, which from the very cover is subjective to the murderers cause, but from the sheer audacity she has, writing an enormous book compiling the crap she read elsewhere about a man whom I still know nothing about.
Tedious and boring, full of superficial details.......2003-08-24
This book was so incredibly boring, that I was tempted to skip parts of it. Some of the other criticisms leveled are true such as the fact that she completely skips his childhood.
She also is completely void of any humour or literary style in terms of presenting his life as an interesting story.
Instead, you are bombed with such trivial details about things that you wouldn't even get quizzed on Jeopardy about.
Avoid this book like SARS.
Book Description
England in Conflict 1603-1660 tells the story of the disintegration of the early modern polity. By questioning the meanings of the body politic it is able to bridge not only the high and low but also divergent approaches to the period. The book's opening explorations of the practices and assumptions of politics, of religious life in center and locality, of social relationships and of economic patterns, are followed by a turn to narrative. The drama of the slide from royal peace into civil war and revolution, and the trauma of the failure of that revolution, are caught with a clarity that does not come at the price of distortion. Derek Hirst has blended his own continuing researches with more than a decade of challenging scholarship that appeared since his Authority and Conflict (from which this book is descended). The result is a wholly fresh work. Centered around ambiguities of community in early modern England--the community of the realm embodied in the king, the local communities with all their strengths and subversions, the political community as an autonomous agent--the text enlivens such debates as those over revisionism, Puritanism, the church, and witchcraft while at the same time making sense of the complexities of crisis and continuity.

Book Description
Examining works which supported the abolition of monarchy and its replacement with a republic, Jonathan Scott ventures beyond existing studies of individual authors or specific themes to offer the first general account of an influential body of writing. Poets such as John Milton as well as journalists, political leaders, theorists and whig martyrs were among those contributing to the cultural ferment. The result is a major contribution to our understanding of seventeenth-century England, from one of its foremost historians.

Book Description
Since their publication in the Camden Series over 100 years ago, Sir Charles Firth’s editions of the papers and New Model Army secretary William Clarke, Clarke Papers I–IV (1891–1901), have formed a fundamental source for students of the English Civil War and Interregnum, 1642–1660. This volume offers a further selection, deciphered for the first time since they were written by Frances Henderson, from the many documents which Clarke disguised in one of the rudimentary shorthand systems of his day. The new material consists mainly of the political intelligence which was being passed at every level from informed sources in London and elsewhere to English army headquarters in Scotland, where Clarke was based during the 1650s. The text is fully annotated. Appendices include a list of correspondents identified by Clarke in shorthand letters otherwise written en clair, and a survey of the use of shorthand in early seventeenth-century England.
Book Description
Counting Sheep is excellent popular science, opening up the nature of sleep and explaining its mysteries. Does the early bird really catch the worm or end up healthy, wealthy, and wise? Can people exist on just a few hours sleep? Does everybody dream? Do fish? Is anybody getting enough sleep? Even though we devote a third of our lives to sleep, we still know remarkably little about its origins and purpose, and sleep-related events like yawning, sleepwalking, and nocturnal erections still confuse most of us. But with Counting Sheep, readers will gain respect, understanding, and a more full enjoyment of the time when theyre lost to the world.
Customer Reviews:
Weak Title...Strong Book.......2004-11-29
I almost passed on this book because the title gave me the impression that it was probably a piece of fluff. In reality this is a very comprehensive study on all aspects of sleep. I really liked how the author put many things I already knew, more or less, into perspective. Such as: Driving while having slept too little is like driving after having drunk too much. Alcohol gets all the blame, while people pride themselves on going without sleep. One problem: I often have dreams that foretell some incident that occurs later in the day, and found this true for many others also. Psychic dreams seem to be as common as rain, but the author dismisses them as mere coincidence. I subtracted one star for this factual error.
An Encyclopedic Sleep Manifesto.......2004-11-22
"The mere presence of an alarm clock implies sleep deprivation." What's the purpose of sleeping and dreaming? Some would just as well ask what's the purpose of wakefulness, or elegant dining, and I've been happily one of them since I was kid who early understood the delicious and miraculous sensuality of that mere third of our lives spent sleeping and dreaming. (Some of us wish it was an acceptably higher percentage.) With whimsical puns and humor appropriate to any lover of sleep ("Give sleep a chance." "Falling asleep again, what am I to do?"), Dr. Martin covers everything from the art of lucid dreaming to the history of beds -- and everything his delightful and agile mind can squeeze into 432 pages in between. No kidding. Despite the format that already feels like a sad "remainder," no self respecting sleep aficionado will be without this book on a nightstand (or coffee table, perchance to recruit other sleep and dream connoisseurs). Loaded with countless "aha" and "wow" current research facts and implications -- and plenty of encouragement to include the exquisite pleasures of sleeping and dreaming in daily life. Highly recommended educational material for the materially insane Western world. Zzzzzz.
"The Science and Pleasures of Sleep and Dreams".......2004-10-23
A very good subtitle for this encyclopedic book, also the title of this review, which could have included the words "and everything that can go wrong with sleep and the lack of it". Easy to read, exhaustively referenced (but without numbered references), Martin's dry humor is sparse at the beginning, but expands nicely as the book progresses. There are no picures, tables or graphs. For my taste, too many myths, legends, personal anecdotes, and non-scientific thoughts including poetic fantasies detracted from the many experimental findings that were presented.
Every aspect of sleep was addressed: REM, NREM, deep-wave, insomnia, too little sleep with many warnings about its effect on driving and other activities, alcohol and sleep, falling asleep, snoring, apnea, dreaming, waking up, SIDS...everything! Some conclusions were not surprising - many people in industrialized countries are suffering from too litttle sleep or too little deep sleep, and wake up to alarm clocks, a stress. Many school children sleep through classes because of poor regular sleep.
Martin demonstrated a few lapses in content. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome was said to have complex causes, including "malfunctioning immune reactions" (p21). Actually, it is proven that food allergies, especially grain allergies, are a common cause of CFS. People who get sleepy 90 minutes after eating a meal (p157) was not connected with hypogycemia from high-carbohydrate food. ADHD may well be caused by poor sleeping (p232), but no mention of its possible connection with diet was made (J. Am. Phys. Surg. 2003;8(2):58-60). Serum cholesterol levels were said to be a risk factor for heart disease (p263), which they are not when age is taken into account (see The Cholesterol Myths, Uffe Ravnskov). Eating fat, unless it was all trans fat, was not likely to be the cause of Elvis Presley's early death (p280). Grinding of teeth while sleeping was adressed with several types of treatments (p283), yet the simple plastic tooth guard was not mentioned. Irritable bowel syndrome (p284) was not connected with grain allergies. SIDS causes (p328) did not include too many vaccines too early in life as a possible cause.
Despite the caveats, this is a very good book.
Scientific and Artistic Appreciation for Sleep.......2004-08-05
We spend about a third of our lives sleeping, but we don't like to admit it. We are likely to praise the person who skimps on sleep in order to get the duties of the rest of life, "real life," done. Scientific sleep research was not even considered until recent decades. Correcting this sort of neglect of a biological necessity is one of the purposes of _Counting Sheep: The Science and Pleasures of Sleep and Dreams_ (Thomas Dunne Books) by Paul Martin. The deliberate neglect of sleep manifests itself in many ways, as if, Martin writes, we all somehow "ceased to exist at night." There is an enormous literature about sleep, not just the scientific studies that have been conducted over the past five decades, but also poems, essays, and novels having to do with sleep and dreaming. Martin gives quotations from many authors (especially Shakespeare and Dickens) in epigraphs and also as illustrations within the text to show how universal the literary concern for slumber has been; his reading is obviously wide and rich, and his book is crammed with interesting facts about aspects of sleep that ought to convince anyone that sleeping is more important, and more virtuous, than we currently esteem it.
Sleep is universal, even among other animals besides humans. Humble insects and mollusks sleep. Fruit flies find a location where they can remain immobile for a couple of hours, around the same time of day, and if you keep them from sleeping, they catch up as soon as they can. What is sleep for? Nathaniel Kleitman, the founder of modern sleep research, dodged the question. He said he would explain the role of sleep once someone had explained the role of wakefulness. Most hypotheses of the action of sleep have been shot down, and non is completely convincing or comprehensive, so there are many mysteries still to be solved. Martin makes the case that almost all of us in modern societies are deprived of sleep at least some of the time. "Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty," says the Bible, and even Dr. Franklin roused the sluggards with the reminder that there will be sleep enough in the grave. Our eagerness to stay up, our fortitude in setting the alarm so we get an early start, are not virtues at all, Martin shows. Sleep deprivation robs the next day of comfort and productivity, but can also produce disasters. The grounding of the Exxon Valdez, the Challenger explosion, the near-disaster at Three Mile Island nuclear power station and the true disaster at Chernobyl might not have happened had the personnel involved all been sleeping well. There are many sleep diseases, but the very worst is Fatal Familial Insomnia, in which sufferers endure worsening sleep until their brains become incapable of generating sleep brain waves. Not even the strongest barbiturates bring sleep, and death invariably results.
There isn't much here about that other bed activity, sex, but there is chapter on the universal phenomenon of nocturnal erections and the equally universal one of yawning. There is a chapter on beds, many of them strange or expensive. Cardinal Richelieu was so devoted to staying in bed that he traveled in his bed, with porters carrying him. If he visited you, you would have to tear down a wall or two so that he could be carried, still abed, into your house where he would begin his meetings, again still abed. There is the story of how the Soviets harnessed sleep deprivation by amplified music and flares to keep Nazis from sleeping and overtaking Leningrad. Famous sleepers are profiled. The pianist Anton Rubinstein would have overslept every morning except that his wife found the perfect solution. She would play an unresolved chord on his piano, and he would leap out of bed to complete it. You can learn here about increasing the likelihood that you will remember your dreams, or how to increase your chances of lucid dreaming, during which you have more control over the dream than usual. Throughout this informed survey runs the recurrent and welcome message: Sleep is important, you probably don't get enough, and you should enjoy a good sleep just as you do a good meal. And naps are good for you. Brightly written, Martin's book cannot itself induce somnolence, but can just make us act upon it more readily and knowingly.

Book Description
There is today a growing awareness that many wetlands are more valuable in their natural, or only slightly modified state, than if drained, dyked or built upon. Past neglect of wetlands has meant that there is insufficient material available on policy guidance, planning techniques, or management methodologies for their conservation and sustainable use in different regions This publication begins to redress the balance by reviewing the importance of wetlands, examining the reasons for wetland loss, and identifying ways and means to improve wetland management.
