Jach Malloch
Alan Brough heard whispered stories of Jack Malloch whilst growing up in Rhodesia: an amazing flyer who many credited with the very survival of the breakaway country. Yet on the surface, Jack seemed to be nothing more than a hard-working entrepreneur who owned a nondescript little cargo operation serviced by a few battered old aircrafts. After Jack's untimely death in 1982, many lamented the fact that the truth about his extraordinary exploits would never be known. And so began Alan's long and painstaking period of meticulous research. While this is a biography, it is also an action packed historical record that begins and ends in the cockpit of the iconic Spitfire with fast-paced accounts of tumultuous times in dangerous places. But when the dust settled, Jack Malloch was a dedicated family-man who was motivated by patriotism, compassion and strong Christian values. His honesty, reliability and courage, along with his detailed knowledge of Africa and the "Big Men" who counted, uniquely qualified him for the many covert operations he undertook for the Secret Services of France, Portugal, the United States and Rhodesia

Brough Superior
George Brough started building motorcycles shortly after the First World War. The machines were named Brough Superior both to distinguish them from his father's Brough machines and to denote the highest levels of performance and quality of manufacture. Throughout the 1920s and 1930s, the name Brough Superior was synonymous with the very best in motorcycle design. The machines gained fame in the hands of riders such as Bert le Vack, Eric Fernihough, Noel Pope and, of course, T E Lawrence 'Lawrence of Arabia'. This book documents the full story of Brough and Brough Superior from the early years of the twentieth century through to the end of production in the Second World War, and post-war attempts at revival.

Youth Power in Precarious Times
Does youth participation hold the potential to change entrenched systems of power and to reshape civic life? In Youth Power in Precarious Times Melissa Brough examines how the city of Medellín, Colombia, offers a model of civic transformation forged in the wake of violence and repression. She responds to a pressing contradiction in the world at large, where youth political participation has become a means of commodifying digital culture amid the ongoing disenfranchisement of youth globally. Brough focuses on how young people's civic participation online and in the streets in Medellín was central to the city's transformation from having the world's highest homicide rates in the early 1990s to being known for its urban renaissance by the 2010s. Seeking to distinguish commercialized digital interactions from genuine political participation, Brough uses Medellín's experiences with youth participation—ranging from digital citizenship initiatives to the voices of community media to the beats of hip-hop culture—to show how young people can be at the forefront of fostering ecologies of artistic and grassroots engagement in order to reshape civic life.

He's been there, got the T-shirt. Having suffered years of substance abuse, volatile relationships and self-destructive behaviour, Devon finally heeded the advice of R Narayan Murthy - that "Growth is painful. Change is painful. But nothing is as painful as staying stuck where you don't belong." The process of change begins with one simple decision.

From this comes the realisation that, no matter the mistakes of your past, you deserve to be happy and successful. In Get OVA It!, Devon presents his real-world method for anyone stuck in a life rut to break free from the pain and sadness holding them back. Ownership, Vision and Action stack together to form the structure of his programme - used in tandem, they provide an opportunity for profound transformation. They will allow you to: Master your mindset; Rewrite your limiting thoughts and beliefs; Positively shape how you think and what you feel; Empower yourself to make healthy choices; And, crucially, take action towards achieving your life goals.
