Occasions Lifestyle Books by Kate Spade Every occasion calls out for something extra, whether it's flowers you set on the table, foods to honor a special gathering, or the selection of music. For both hostess and guest, consideration of those around you is among the most important qualities for any enjoyable occasion. A smile and sense of humor are also essential, and before the canaps and night lighting a good hostess is ultimately defined by a welcoming and gracious demeanor. In Occasions, designer Kate Spade invites you into her world of easy, festive entertaining, where the emphasis is not on 'the perfect meal' but on having 'the perfect time.' It's a world where laughter and conversation at dinner parties are encouraged and where spilled red wine on the couch is no reason to stop the music. As Kate says, 'Making your guests feel at home is truly an art and it's one worth cultivating.' Any occasion begins with preparation, and at the outset Kate describes such basic components as lighting (votive candles are a must); table linens, flatware, and glassware; flowers (trimmed short and tightly massed); even bedding for overnight or weekend guests. Party shopping lists, hors d'oeuvres and cocktail favorites, and dinner party menus are all included. An 'Alphabet of Special Events,' from baby showers to tailgate picnics, is both anecdotal and useful for would-be hostesses everywhere. Whether you entertain a lot or a little, and whether your style is casual or formal, Occasions, with more than 230 charming watercolor illustrations, is a handy and fresh approach to the subject, a book to be treasured today and over the years. Above all, at any gathering 'hospitality makes for infectious fun.' Product Details: Hard Cover Genre: Lifestyle ISBN: 9780743250658

Rather than being adopted by the town's busy-bodies, they decide to set sail for new pastures in their father's last single possession, his sailing boat. But a vicious storm sees their boat capsize and the twins are separated. Two mysterious ships sail to their rescue - each picking up one twin before disappearing into the mist. Connor wakes to find himself on a pirate ship and is soon being trained up with a cutlass. Meanwhile Grace finds herself locked in a darkened room, as the vampirates wait for night to fall and their feasting to begin... Determined to find each other, yet intrigued by their new shipmates, the twins are about to embark on the biggest adventure of their life...

State of Africa by Martin Meredith Africa is forever on our TV screens, but the bad-news stories (famine, genocide, corruption) massively outweigh the good (South Africa). Ever since the process of decolonialisation began in the mid-1950s, and arguably before, the continent has appeared to be stuck in a process of irreversible decline. Constant war, improper use of natural resources and misappropriation of revenues and aid monies contribute to an impression of a continent beyond hope. How did we get here? What, if anything, is to be done? Weaving together the key stories and characters of the last fifty years into a stunningly compelling and coherent narrative, Martin Meredith has produced the definitive history of how European ideas of how to organise 10,000 different ethnic groups has led to what Tony Blair described as the 'scar on the conscience of the world'. Authoritative, provocative and consistently fascinating, this is a major book on one of the most important issues facing the West today. Martin Meredith is the author of many acclaimed books on Africa including lives of Robert Mugabe and Nelson Mandela and Coming to Terms: South Africa's Search for Truth. He lives near Oxford.

When she was ten Liza Barton shot her mother dead, trying to protect her from her violent stepfather. The court ruled the death a tragic accident. Many believed it to be deliberate murder. Twenty-four years later, Liza is known as Celia. Now a successful interior designer, living in Manhattan, she is happily married for the second time, with a young son, Jack, by her first marriage. Nothing can disturb their peace. But when her new husband surprises her with a gift, her world is suddenly shattered - for it is the very same house where her mother met her death.

First, Break All the Rules (Aust) by Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman expose the fallacies of standard management thinking in First, Break All the Rules: What the World's Greatest Managers Do Differently. In seven chapters, the two consultants for the Gallup Organization debunk some dearly held notions about management, such as 'treat people as you like to be treated'; 'people are capable of almost anything'; and 'a manager's role is diminishing in today's economy.' 'Great managers are revolutionaries,' the authors write. 'This book will take you inside the minds of these managers to explain why they have toppled conventional wisdom and reveal the new truths they have forged in its place.' The authors have culled their observations from more than 80,000 interviews conducted by Gallup during the past 25 years. Quoting leaders such as basketball coach Phil Jackson, Buckingham and Coffman outline 'four keys' to becoming an excellent manager: Finding the right fit for employees, focusing on strengths of employees, defining the right results, and selecting staff for talent - not just knowledge and skills. First, Break All the Rules offers specific techniques for helping people perform better on the job. For instance, the authors show ways to structure a trial period for a new worker and how to create a pay plan that rewards people for their expertise instead of how fast they climb the company ladder. 'The point is to focus people toward performance,' they write. 'The manager is, and should be, totally responsible for this.' Written in plain English and well organized, this book tells you exactly how to improve as a supervisor. Marcus Buckingham is the co-author of the best-selling books First, Break All the Rules and Now, Discover Your Strengths. He is a renowned speaker and regular guest on American television. He lives in Los Angeles but was born in England and is a graduate of Cambridge University. Product Details: Paperback

One Thing You Need To Know by Marcus Buckingham Drawing on a wide body of research, including extensive in-depth interviews, The One Thing You Need to Know reveals the central insights that lie at the core of: Great Managing, Great Leadership and Great Careers. Buckingham uses a wealth of relevant examples to reveal that at the heart of each insight lies a controlling insight. Lose sight of this 'one thing' and all of your best efforts at managing, leading, or individual achievement will be diminished. For great managing, the controlling insight has less to do with fairness, or team building, or clear expectations (although all are important). Rather, the one thing great managers know is the need to discover and then capitalize on what is unique about each person. For leadership, the controlling insight is the opposite - discover and capitalize on what is universal to all your people, regardless of differences in personality, race, sex, or age. For sustained individual success, the controlling insight is the need to discover what you don't like doing, and know how and when to stop doing it. In every way a groundbreaking work, The One Thing You Need to Know offers crucial performance and career lessons for business people at every level.

What if there is a You that you have never even met and certainly never permitted to just be, without fear of judgment or condemnation? What if you live your life on the sidelines in constant fear of failing to please those who forever seem to stand in judgment of you and your life? What if you discovered that you had settled for what life has served up instead of what you really wanted and needed? What if you really think and feel things you have never allowed to come out, and certainly never acted on? What if your marriage is not at all what you really emotionally want and need, but you silently stay the course anyway, selling out your hope to be happy? What if you are allowing days to turn into weeks and weeks to turn into months and months to turn into years, all adding up to a lifetime of being what some nameless, faceless world has assigned you to be? If any of these 'What ifs' are true in your life, then we need to talk, and through these pages, we will. First, I have some bad news, and I have some good news.

So You're Going To Be A Dad (Revised) by Peter Downey Completely revised and updated for 21st century fathers-to-be, So You're Going to Be a Dad is written especially for unsuspecting Australian males, who know little or nothing about parenting, but are keen to have a go. This is a book that explodes the myths - a tough, uncompromising, no-holds-barred, no-beg-your-pardons look at fatherhood, from the sperm that started it all to the sleep deprivation you'll suffer as a consequence. In his wry and very funny style, Peter Downey tells all about the trials and joys of parenting, including advice about pregnancy, childbirth and baby care. Included is important advice on what to say - and what not to say - when you hear the news; taking care of mums-to-be; why embryos look like the monster in Alien; names not to call your baby; what childbirth feels like; how many cameras you should take to the birth; crying; nappies; who was the superior Batman: Michael Keaton or Adam West?; bathing; travelling; your baby's development; baby-proofing your home; how much this is all going to cost; and lots of stuff about sex. But that's not all! It comes complete with a glossary full of handy words new dads will need to know, and a lot more that they won't, plus the films to watch and the ones to avoid, and words of wisdom from real live fathers. So You're Going to Be a Dad is without doubt one of the greatest parental educational books ever written. Peter Downey is an author because he couldn't cut it as a musician! He is also a schoolteacher, and lives in the Sydney suburb of Balgowlah with his wife, three children and four guinea pigs. He wrote this book back in the nineties because he believed somebody should warn dads-to-be about the enormous changes fatherhood brings to their lives. He believes this to be so, more than ever. He also wrote this book because he believes that our society needs more good dads.

Style by Kate Spade A few lucky women have been born with style - think Diana Vreeland and Jacqueline Onassis - but for most of us, style is something that comes with time and experience. Above all, style begins with a sense of who you are and your self-confidence. Style comes from opening yourself to the world around you - to books and movies, art, music, travel, and especially to other people. In this upbeat and engaging book, designer Kate Spade talks about the many people and experiences that have inspired her. For Kate, movies as varied as The Swimmer and The Red Balloon have influenced her vision of style, as have such places as Mexico (where she and her husband, Andy, vacation each year), Napa Valley, and her hometown of Kansas City. In the pages of Style, you'll find a large section devoted to the colors Kate most loves and suggestions for combining them. Accessories, which are the backbone of her wardrobe, are given full treatment here, including shoes, handbags, hats, gloves, and jewellery; and a portfolio of Kate's personal favourites from her own closet is showcased. Style in the office, evening style, even ideas for style when you travel and when you play are all featured here. The last section of Style focuses on maintaining your wardrobe, including tips on organizing your closet, caring for vintage clothes, and keeping your jewelry in good condition. Style, with 230 watercolour illustrations, is a wonderfully personal and friendly book intended for readers of all ages and style temperaments. If there's one rule Kate espouses, it's that true style comes when you follow your own rules. Moreover, as the writers William Strunk, Jr., and E. B. White once wrote, 'To achieve style, begin by affecting none.' Kate Spade and her husband and partner, Andy, created Kate Spade in 1993. In addition to handbags, the world of Kate Spade now includes a line of tabletop, bedding, and other accessories for the home; shoes; glasses; social stationery; and a beauty

Wagamama Ways With Noodles by Hugo Arnold The Wagamama Cookbook told the story of the company and was driven by the menu and the specials attached to it. Ways with Noodles takes its inspiration from wagamama's core expertise; noodles: how to cook, serve and eat them. Noodles are the fast food of today, the pasta of the 21st century. The distinctive wagamama flavour originates from the traditional 200-year-old ramen (noodle) stalls of Japan that guaranteed nourishment with ingredients to cleanse and nurture the mind and body. Minimum fuss and maximum enjoyment are what wagamama noodles are about. Noodles to soothe, noodles to celebrate, noodles to share, noodles for that impromptu supper for one when nothing else will do. Hugely versatile, noodles turn up in soups, side dishes, as a nest for meat, fish or vegetables, as a bed for curry or in a salad. They can be stir fried or dressed, or poached in a heady broth, aromatics being provided by freshly chopped herbs. And they are healthy too: high in complex carbohydrates, low in fat, while most recipes make much use of fresh vegetables and fish. Brush up on your noodle knowledge and get to know your soba from your somen. Try the mouthwatering recipes, which include wide-ribbon hot-pot with seven vegetables, char grilled chicken, soba and miso soup, and marinated salmon ramen. Look no further for delicious noodle recipes for every occasion, from appetisers to family meals to elegant dinner party dishes. Hugo Arnold is mad about noodles. Having written The Wagamama Cookbook, the opportunity to indulge in even more noodles was too great a temptation to ignore. So armed with chopsticks... Hugo has written food columns in the London Evening Standard, the Financial Times and now the Irish Times. He is the author of seven books, and won a Glenfiddich food award in 2001 for his innovative writing. Product Details: Paperback Genre: Cooking ISBN: 9781856266468
