Paige Carson - starlet, diva, mess. The daughter of an 80s soap star and a rock god, it`s no wonder Paige has no idea what `normal` means. And Hollywood life isn`t helping. She`s sick of working with her latest co-star, a boorish Aussie heartthrob, sick of being told she`s over-the-hill at 29, and sick of dates that are nothing more than PR stunts. So when she`s offered a Shakespearean role on the London stage, it seems the perfect chance to get away from it all, gain some artistic cachet and catch up with her best friend who quit the States and the music business for a new life as lady of the manor with her British husband. But Paige is in for a surprise. London is damper, dirtier and far more carb-heavy than the life she`s accustomed...

The Holy Qur`an (also known as The Koran) is the sacred book of Islam. It is the word of God whose truth was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad through the angel Gabriel over a period of 23 years. As it was revealed, so it was committed to memory by his companions, though written copies were also made by literate believers during the lifetime of the Prophet. The first full compilation was by Abu Bakar, the first Caliph, and it was then recompiled in the original dialect by the third Caliph Uthman, after the best reciters had fallen in battle.Muslims believe that the truths of The Holy Qur`an are fully and authentically revealed only in the original classical Arabic. However, as the influence of Islam grows and spreads to the modern world,...

In his remarkable book, Jonathan Phillips explores the conflict of ideas, beliefs and cultures and shows both the contradictions and diversity of holy war. He draws on contemporary writings - on chronicles, songs, sermons, travel diaries and peace treaties - to throw a brilliant new light on people and events we thought we knew well. Although the notion of fighting for one`s faith fell into disrepute in the Enlightenment, Phillips traces the crusading impulse from the bloody conquest of Jerusalem in the First Crusade and the titanic struggle between Richard the Lionheart and Saladin up to the present day - to George W. Bush`s characterisation of the war on terrorism as a crusade.

Homage to Catalonia is both a memoir of Orwell`s experience at the front in the Spanish Civil War and a tribute to those who died in what he called a fight for common decency. Down and Out in Paris and London chronicles the adventures of a penniless British writer who finds himself rapidly descending into the seedy heart of two great European cities. This edition brings together two powerful works from one of the finest writers of the twentieth century.
