| A Fair Feast |
£9.99 |
 |
| A FAIR FEAST is a highly desirable cookbook co-ordinated and compiled by Vicky Bhogal, and comprising 70 recipes donated from the top names within the food industry and beyond. It is part of the Make Poverty History campaign. From Jamie to Nigella, Sir Elton John to Minnie Driver, Ken Hom to Keith Floyd, Richard and Judy to Dido, Margaret Attwood to Delia Smith, Jemma Kidd to Sir Terence Conran, this book covers all styles of food and all the stars of food, coming together to make a difference in the best way they know how. An illustrated quote from each celebrity, introducing either their donated dish or the wider initiative and their support of it, prefaces every recipe. Alongside the beautiful Fairtrade photographs small vignettes of information are included to raise awareness of how fairer trade rules, more and better aid and the cancellation of Third World debts are needed to tackle poverty. The proceeds from the book will go towards promoting long-term food security and sustainable agriculture. |

| A Life Stripped Bare |
£10.99 |
 |
| Is it possible, in the twenty-first century, to lead a normal life – to have a job, kids, a mortgage, holidays in the sun – but at the same time be respectful to the planet and the people who share it? Over the course of a year, Leo Hickman conducted an unusual experiment to find out…Most people fight shy of giving up their cars, their toxic household products, their cheap washing machines, or dodgy, unethical bank accounts to make the world a better place. Could Leo live a more ‘ethical’ existence?As your average male consumer, he is no green warrior and an innocent abroad when it comes to ‘ethical’ living but he approached the experiment with real enthusiasm. Is it possible to live a life that is western but also aware, or is the ‘Good Life’ the preserve of the eco-warriors, new-age spiritualists and the organic-product endorsing Hollywood set?Appealing for help and guidance on the internet, he was inundated with advice from the extraordinary to the extreme: ‘The most sustainable food source is skips!’ to ‘Having children is the most unethical thing you can do, so try ceasing that for starters.’Leo then invited three ‘ethical auditors’ into his home. As they explored the murkier recesses of his life – his bathroom, fridge, holiday plans, shady DIY habits – he discovered that ethical living involved a lot more than changing his brand of washing-up liquid.A Life Stripped Bare is the record of an extraordinary transformation. Both funny and inspirational, it is a mine of information for all of us with a conscience. Who knows it might change your life, too. About the Author: Leo Hickman is 31. He grew up in Cornwall about 400 metres away from what was to become Eden. He is a journalist, editor and the consumer expert at the Guardian. He lives in south London with his wife, two small children and 3,000 worms. He is also the author of How to Buy and the editor of A Good Life: the Guide to Ethical Living (now in stock). |

| Another World is Possible if.. |
£10.00 |
 |
| By Susan George288 page paperbackParticipants in the worldwide citizens’ movement for social change and global justice like to proclaim that “Another World Is Possible.” But is it? To this popular slogan, Susan George adds a cautionary “If,” and proposes how we can indeed reach that Other World.Shifting the balance of power in favor of citizens takes a hard-headed understanding of globalization, knowledge of the adversaries who prevent change, intelligent organization, and exciting yet practical proposals and strategic thinking. In clear and straightforward prose, drawing on her thirty years of scholarship in the service of social change as well as decades of participation in social movements, George cautions against pitfalls such as violence or basing one’s actions on all-too-common illusions. Whether you are a seasoned campaigner and confirmed “world-changer,” someone who wonders how you can join in the growing citizens’ movement, or someone who simply wants to know what this movement is about, this book is for you. You will discover that we are not condemned to glaring North-South inequalities, obscene wealth gaps, environmental destruction or inordinate power remaining in the hands of a small minority, if . . . About the Author: Susan George, the author of eleven books, was born in the United States and lives in Paris. She is Associate Director of the Transnational Institute in Amsterdam and Vice President of ATTAC, andfrom 1990 to 1995 she served on the Board of Greenpeace International. She has acted as a consultant to several United Nations agencies and is a frequent public speaker for NGOs in numerous countries. Her work has been translated into many languages. |
