.The New Natural Death Handbook

from: Rider & Co

April 06, 2000
The physical business of funerals is unsatisfactory for many reasons. This book gives details of how various aspects may be varied from undertakers' routines. For example it is not obligatory to be embalmed. This means that instead of staying in a coffin saturated with formaldehyde indefinitely, the body will break down and rejoin the creative process naturally. This book also gives details, names, addresses and telephone numbers of green funeral sites - have a tree instead of a tombstone - and suppliers of shrouds and cardboard coffins. It tells in detail how to draw up a 'living will' so that your friends and relations will not be burdened with these arrangements which may well be considered unusual and therefore undesirable by ...

."Time Out" Book of Country Walks ("Time Out" Guides)

by: Nicholas Albery

January 05, 1997
This book is great for someone (like me) who has moved to London and needs to get out and see the country side at least every 2 weeks. I found the walks a great way to catch up with friends who live all over London. All meeting at the station and walking, chatting and catching up on news with the pub lunch a great idea, AND FRESH AIR!. An ideal day out in the weekend thats cheap. The book has heaps of varied walks, but the book's directions actual over complicate the route. Good "English" pub recommendations for a foreigner to enjoy and some landmarks to visit.
Well worth the tenner it costs!
PS If you want peace, avoid doing the same walk as the Walkers Club on the same weekend.

.Seize the Day: 366 Tips for Living

by: Albery Wienrich, Stephanie Wienrich

October 11, 2001
"It's better to give than to receive - especially advice", wrote Mark Twain. A funny line to open this book of advice, you might think, but it is no ordinary book of tips. Presented in calendar form, where each day is devoted to one page with one tip from the 366 "extraordinary people" who contributed to the book, it is an elegantly wrapped parcel of inspirations portioned in daily doses.

Turning to my birth date (that's what you're supposed to do isn't it?) I was instantly impressed. "Never ask a Pig to sing," it said. Actually I don't like pigs, but the gist I like and leafing through I quickly found plenty more.

For each tip a paragraph clarifies what the contributor means, and another describes ... Read More:
