I am Taita the Slave. I was sold into slavery when I was a child, and I grew up as a slave in the land of Egypt. I was the slave of Lord Intef - the most powerful man in Upper Egypt. Lostris was his only child and it was my job to protect her. On the day when my story begins I was thirty years old. That day, the River Nile was shining as brightly as metal under the desert sun. I was sitting in a long boat - a galley. The men who rowed the galley were soldiers of Pharaoh Mamose, King of Egypt. Lostris sat in the bow of the boat. She was fifteen years old and she was very beautiful. And that day she was also very happy. She had never come with us on a hippopotamus hunt before. Retold by Stephen Colbourn.

The first kiss occurred in a dimly lit hallway on the upper floor of Elwin Hastings`s grand house. Louisa never saw it course, Anthony Stalbridge couldn`t possibly have had romantic intentions.

The river of Dawkins`s title is a river of DNA, flowing through time from the beginning of life on earth to the present - and onwards. Dawkins explains that DNA must be thought of as the most sophisticated information system imaginable: `Life is just bytes and bytes of information,` he writes. Using this perspective, he describes the mechanisms by which evolution has taken place, gradually but inexorably, over a period of three thousand million years. It is the story of how evolution happens, rather than a narrative of what has actually happened in evolution. He discusses current views on the process of human evolution, including the idea that we all trace back to a comparatively recent African `Eve`, and speculates that the `information...

A searing account of George Orwell?s observations of working-class life in the bleak industrial heartlands of Yorkshire and Lancashire in the 1930s, The Road to Wigan Pier is a brilliant and bitter polemic that has lost none of its political impact over time. His graphically unforgettable descriptions of social injustice, cramped slum housing, dangerous mining conditions, squalor, hunger and growing unemployment are written with unblinking honesty, fury and great humanity. It crystallized the ideas that would be found in Orwell?s later works and novels, and remains a powerful portrait of poverty, injustice and class divisions in Britain.
