The first part of Book 8 of the Ringing Cedars series describes another visit by Megre to Anastasia and their son, showing in ever-greater detail how Anastasia s lifestyle of practical cooperation with Nature applies to our lives. Describing how the visions presented in previous volumes have already taken beautiful form to produce massive changes in Russia and beyond, the author discerns the birth of a new civilization. The book also paints a vivid image of a future America in which the conflict between rich and poor has been transcended.

A breathtakingly ambitious series that tackled over a thousand years of history, Kenneth Clark's Civilisation was the first color documentary series broadcast in the UK. Eager to show off its new second channel, the BBC had sent its finest directors and crew on an 80,000-mile odyssey in search of the finest examples of human creativity. The resulting thirteen-episode series became a milestone in television history, pioneering the "Presenter-Hero" model of authored documentary. For its fans the series gave hope for the future at a time of civil and political unrest; for its critics the series elicited only despair at its supposedly elitist values. Meanwhile, in the United States the series had an even deeper impact: a flagship for a new public broadcasting service, and the start of a new transatlantic partnership between the BBC and PBS.Forty years on Civilisation has become synonymous with the golden age of the BBC documentary series, even as many television professionals have come to deride it as patronizing and slow. Drawing on interviews with members of the original crew and extensive archival research, Jonathan Conlin goes beyond the g(u)ilt-edged caricature to reveal a series that combined healthy skepticism towards traditional ideas of progress with a genuinely inclusive approach to its audience. Special chapters contrast the British and American response to Civilisation - and consider its legacy to all those interested in putting art and history on the small screen.

In small-town, suburban New Zealand, with its seemingly average people, can be found many stories of lives, loves, aspirations, and, sporadically, a dark secret or two. As reported by a much-followed columnist and awarded journalist, these rich, fascinating, and occasionally disturbing stories of settlements follow people living throughout New Zealand, from Kawakawa in the north to Mosgiel in the south, and Samoa and Antarctica overseas. Funny, moving, and at times terrifying, this book provides a platform from which New Zealand reveals itself and proves that rarely are people and places as they first appear.

Beautifully bound book with gilded design on front cover and matching slip case. Civilization by Kenneth Clark, published by the prestigious Folio Society, London. Gift book.
