. The Non-Designer's Design Book
by: Robin Williams
February 21, 2008
I bought this book based on the stellar "Presentation Zen" by Garr Reynolds. (A must-read if you do presentations of any type).
What I was seeking to glean from this book was how to improve the look of my PowerPoint presentations. Though Robin doesn't cover this specifically, everything she writes about can be applied to the design of the slides.
The book is aimed at 'non-professional' designers. By this I mean those of us who design things in our work, but aren't trained to do so, e.g. flyers, event alerts, newsletters, reports, business cards, studies, articles, etc.
I found it funny how often she tells us not to be "wimps" in our design choices. I mean she REALLY tells us a lot. But her point is we ... Read More:

. The Executioners: Taking a Life for a Life
by: Phil Robin Clarke, Liz Hardy, Anne Williams
May 01, 2008
If you watched the recent documentary series on The Crime and Investigation Network about executioners in the UK, France and the USA, then this book is the logical progression if you want to learn more. The book starts at the earliest forms of execution such as crucifixion and stoning and comes right up to date with Lethal Injection. We learn that stoning was truly a death in the name of the people as the public would carry out the sentence. We learn about how reviled early British hangmen were and how there was an occasion where one executioner was pardoned from his own death sentence in order that he may use his skills to dispatch other condemned inmates. The children of French executioners generally married into the families of other French executioners and the ... Read More:

. Edexcel GCE History: Stalin's Russia 1924-1953
by: Robin Bunce, Laura Williams
July 31, 2008
Bill Houston and Robin Griffiths combine original thought with a comprehensive understanding of cycles. This makes their book on water essential reading for anyone interested in the political , environmental and economic challenges the world faces in the next century.
The risks we potentially face from water shortages are frightening. This book discusses population movements and the possibility of military action to safeguard water supplies. It also clarifies for investors which countries are best positioned to face these challenges.
I found this book so gripping I read it in one sitting, Although no forecast is 100% accurate it is fascinating to consider the possibilities.

. The Garden Designer (Rhs) (Rhs)
by: Robin Williams
May 01, 2007
The Garden Designer by Robin Williams, with its beautiful photographs and hundreds detailed coloured drawings, is easy to read and follow. The lovely clear drawings are among the best I've seen in a garden design book - far superior to photographs, because of their intricate detail that is lost in a photograph. The reader can learn (and be really inspired) from these wonderful, comprehensive annotated drawings, without even reading (the very readable) text. I found the information on undertaking a survey and drawing up the site survey to be extremely useful, especially the detail on the many different ways of determining the changes in level of a garden and how to establish the exact position of the trees in my garden which I wanted to keep. This is ... Read More:
