SIRENS' SONG
The Byzantine Empire is a time and place of enlightenment and diversity, but also zealous piety. Young Adila hungers for this wealth of culture, but as a girl, she's barred from partaking in the richness of society.Her abusive father's solution is to force her to be his longed-for son, Adilsen. He moves their family from Finland to an abbey village in Russia. Outwardly, Adilsen goes along with her father's disguise. It allows her to enter the all-male religious order, where she discovers her love of music, knowledge and God. But Adila lives with the constant threat of her secret being exposed.Adila flourishes in the choir, and the Bishop of Constantinople selects her to travel to the capitol. But he doesn't choose her for her singing The Bishop wants Adilsen as a pawn in his treasonous scheme, entangling her in political corruption at the highest levels of the empire.At the Byzantine monastery in Constantinople, Adilsen must deceive everyone to conceal her true gender. But then she falls in love with Majidi, a visiting dignitary from the far south of the realm. When she shocks the Bishop with a dramatic miscarriage, he banishes her to Majidi's harem in Trebizond. Enslaved in the citadel, she must now fight the harem hierarchy to escape rape, abuse and death. As a boy, Adila's resourcefulness and strength were lauded, but as a concubine, she is a dangerous threat to tradition.SIRENS' SONG is an epic historical fiction adventure of Adila growing into a forceful, intelligent, independent woman in a time when these qualities in a female could get her killed. Through music, spirituality and the challenges of loving a man of a different race and religion, Adila learns from those on the fringes of society how to battle through layers of convention, and claim power in her femininity.

The Bells of Little Woodford
The town of Little Woodford seems peaceful and picture-postcard beautiful, with its marketplace, ancient church, and immaculate allotments. But behind the tranquil facade, troubles are brewing. Olivia Lewthwaite, former town councillor, pillar of the WI, and all-round busybody, has been forced by her husband's gambling debts, to sell their house -- her pride and joy. She hates the new estate they've moved to and knows she needs to humble herself to apply for a job. To make matters worse, a thoroughly disagreeable woman has bought Olivia's beloved Grange and sets about objecting to everything she can, from the ringing of the church bells, to the market stall selling organic local meat. It isn't long before the town is in turmoil.

Migration, Immigration and Social Policy
This thought-provoking and authoritative collection of papers tackles a subject of urgent international concern - migration, immigration and social policy. The volume's thirteen authors are drawn from diverse academic and professional backgrounds, in social work, social policy, sociology, psychology, government and international relations, and bring a wide range of expertise to bear on the subject. They offer readers a broad spectrum of informed perspectives on this most challenging and multi-faceted of policy dilemmas. The volume presents forthright yet realistic analyses of the key issues: from the case for a world-wide system of migration management, to the quest for an EU asylum policy; from a review of European countries' treatment of asylum seekers, to the welfare and citizenship implications of actual reception arrangements in Britain; from the tortuous implications of direct democracy in Switzerland to the pace of new positive integration moves in Denmark and Norway. Taken together, these papers constitute an important intervention in policy debates about migration and immigration.

A Stay Balanced Scale, designed by a leading nutritionist, helps people take control of their diets without ever feeling deprived.

Business of Research
The practice of research has long become more a business activity than scholarly pursuit. It takes particular know-how, not merely to secure financial backing and thence deliver to order, but to manage and keep control of an entire intervening research operation. Yet these are activities academics are not normally trained in or formally prepared for. This collection breaks new ground in its offer of frank commentary on aspects of the research process - as supplied by experienced academics together with a senior representative of one key funding agency - based on first-hand experience and observation of the management of social science projects from within Britain/the EU. The collection is also conspicuous for the variety of research projects covered. Most contributors are reporting with reference to a particular "case-study" experience. But these range from the most localised to the most multi-national; from the most specialised to the most multi-disciplinary undertakings.
