Anne Glenconner reveals the real events behind The Crown as well as her own life of drama, tragedy and courage, with the wonderful wit and extraordinary resilience which define her.Anne Glenconner has been close to the Royal Family since childhood. Eldest child of the 5th Earl of Leicester, she was, as a daughter, described as 'the greatest disappointment' by her family as she was unable to inherit. Her childhood home Holkham Hall is one of the grandest estates in England. Bordering Sandringham the Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret were frequent playmates. From Maid of Honour at the Queen's Coronation to Lady in Waiting to Princess Margaret, Lady Glenconner is a unique witness to royal history, as well as an extraordinary survivor of a generation of aristocratic women trapped without inheritance and burdened with social expectations. She married the charismatic but highly volatile Colin Tennant, Lord Glenconner, who became the owner of Mustique. Together they turned the island into a paradise for the rich and famous, including Mick Jagger and David Bowie, and it became a favourite retreat for Princess Margaret. But beneath the glitz and glamour there has also lurked tragedy. On Lord Glenconner's death in 2010 he left his fortune to a former employee. And of their five children, two grown-up sons died, while a third son had to be nursed back from a coma by Anne, after having suffered a near fatal accident. Anne Glenconner writes with extraordinary wit, generosity and courage and she exposes what life was like in her gilded cage, revealing the role of her great friendship with Princess Margaret, and the freedom she can now finally enjoy in later life.

Cooking, Cleaning, Caring
The first survey volume to provide a historical perspective and analysis of artistic involvement in care work on a global scale, spanning from the 1960s to the present day.Since the 1960s, artists such as Margaret Raspé, Gabriele Voss, Tomaso Binga, Anna Daučíková, Hackney Flashers, Mako Idemitsu, Ana Victoria Jiménez, Mary Sibande and Jinran Ha have been critically examining care work on a global scale. In their art works, they address the physical strains of daily work, deconstruct the myths surrounding 'labour of love', demonstrate the conditions that structurally marginalize care workers and make visible the mechanisms by which cooking, cleaning and caring is still devalued today. With this in mind, they came up with new artistic practices in order to meet the complexities of care work in a globalized world as well as to reflect on their own role as artists and care workers.The bilingual catalog is the first overview publication on care work in art. It accompanies the exhibition of the same name, a joint project between a DFG research group at the Ruhr University Bochum and the Josef Albers Museum Quadrat Bottrop. In addition to rich visual material, the catalog contains the results of the research project as well as contributions from international experts, including Maria Bremer, Karen Cordero Reiman, Ane Lekuona Mariscal, zethu matebeni and Wiktoria Szczupacka.

curse of Berlin Africa after the Cold war
At the 1884 - 1885 Conference of Berlin a cartel of largely European states effectively set the rules for the partition of Africa, an event whose historical and structural importance continues to affect and shape Africa’s contemporary international relations. This `Curse’ is a recurring theme in Adebajo's trenchant historical analysis, even though its main focus is on contemporary African issues after the Cold War. The first part of the title examines Africa's quest for security with three chapters on Africa's security institutions such as the African Union and subregional bodies; another on the political, peacekeeping, and socio-economic roles of the United Nations (UN) in Africa; and a third on Africa's two UN Secretaries-General between 1992 and 2006: Egypt's Boutros Boutros-Ghali and Ghana's Kofi Annan. The second section of the book focuses on Africa’s quest for leadership, and five chapters examine the hegemonic roles of South Africa, Nigeria, the United States, China and France on the continent. The five chapters in the final section analyse Africa’s quest for unity, and examine the roles and significance for Africa of six historical figures: Mandela, Mbeki, Nkrumah, Rhodes, Obama, and Gandhi; as well as assessing the African Union and the EU in comparative perspective.

An empowering, unbiased guide and essential toolkit for pregnancy, labour, birth, breastfeeding and your baby’s first year by GP and TV presenter, Dr Sara Kayat. “No amount of time spent on YouTube watching births, episodes of Motherland, or antenatal classes will brace you for the enormity of what that extra line on the pregnancy test means for your life. My aim in writing this book is that by sharing my own honest experiences, with a hefty medical slant, you will hopefully feel more confident of the bits you can control, have a better understanding of the science behind all the variables so you can make more informed decisions, get a few practical tips, have a laugh and ultimately realise that even doctors are as scared as you are. We are all in this together, holding each other's clammy, anxious hands!” In a world where our instinct is to turn to the internet for answers, which can often simply lead to confusion, anxiety, and conflict, Sara’s book delivers everything you need and want to know about growing and raising a baby. The chapters cover everything from pre-pregnancy nutrition and early pregnancy symptoms and FAQs, to how and when to tell family and friends, what all the medical jargon at your scans really means, when to worry and when not to worry, what to expect, what is normal, and when to seek further help; moving onto your birth options, how to advocate for yourself and how to recover from birth, both physically and mentally, and so much more – Sara has it all covered! Dr Sara’s book will be a crucial resource for mothers during pregnancy, labour, birth, and the first year of their newborn’s life.
