One of the world`s most brilliant economists and the bestselling author of "The End of Poverty", Jeffrey Sachs has written a book that is essential reading for everyone - politicians, people in business and industry, and you. Setting out a bold and provocative, yet responsible and achievable, plan, "The Price of Civilization" reveals why we must - and how we can - change our entire economic culture in this time of crisis. The world economy remains in a precarious state after the recent global recession - where quick fixes were implemented instead of sustainable solutions to systemic problems. Jeffrey Sachs argues powerfully for a new co-operative, common-sense political economy, one that stresses practical partnership between government...

To celebrate the bicentenary of the publication of Pride and Prejudice , the Collector`s Library will publish its lavishly illustrated edition in colour in January. Jane Austen`s best-loved novel is a memorable story about the inaccuracy of first impressions, about the power of reason, and above all about the strange dynamics of human relationships and emotions. Here, where Hugh Thomson`s delightful period illustrations were originally black-and-white, they have been sensitively coloured by Barbara Frith, one of Britain`s most accomplished colourists. Hugh Thomson (1860-1920) was the finest exponent of period illustration in what is sometimes known as the `powder and patch` school.
