Light foxing to page tips. 238 pages text clean, binding tight. This highly readable book is the first to trace the evolution of farming in Western Europe from prehistoric times to the scientific and economic complexities of the present day; it is also the first to relate the island agriculture of Britain to Continental developments. Set against the background of the rural scene and country people, their customs and pursuits, it shows the effects in every age of soil, climate and events on man's efforts through history to sustain life from the land. The Roman method of rural organisation forms a prelude to an account of the'Manorial System' with open field farming in the hands of great ecclesiastics and laymen. After the recession of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries came a general renaissance in agriculture: farming for the production of food stimulated by an increase in the circulation of money, and the establishment of a rural squirearchy; the widespread reclamation of land; rural rebuilding; and the beginnings of a popular agricultural and rural literature. In the hundred years between the mid-eighteenth and mid-nineteenth centuries, soaring populations, industry and prices resulted in an agricultural revolution in Europe. Now came new crops, new stock and the early days of farm mechanisation. Finally, the story is brought up to date, covering the period from the 1870's, when New World food imports began to flood Europe, through two World Wars, to the Common Market. Mr Trow-Smith is not only an expert in his subject, well known as the author of several books including English Husbandry and the standard History ofBritish Husbandry, but he is also a farmer himself with the advantage of being able to relate past practices to modern techniques. His writing and asides, lively, informed and amusing, make this book a fascinating and enjoyable contribution to an important aspect of European history. ., Longmans, 1967, 3, Columbia University Press, 1992. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. First Edition. Moderate shelf wear to dust jacket.. Previous store stamp on bottom edge of closed pgs. A nice, sturdy, unmarked copy. The world's arid and semiarid lands are plagued with serious environmental problems and are deteriorating in their ability to sustain conventional crops. These problems have been long recognized by Drs. C. Wiley Hinman and Jack W. Hinman, experts on the subjects of arid lands and arid-land plant species. In their book the authors discuss the plight of these lands and, more importantly, practical solutions to reverse the present trend. Before, and certainly since, the recent African famines, much publicity in the popular media and at worldwide scientific conferences has been devoted to land degradation and the resultant problem of properly feeding people in the arid lands of the world. The Plight and Promise of Arid Land Agriculture describes the various causes of the problems and the current status of these areas. What's more, the book offers sorely needed guidance and innovative solutions for improved land and water usage and the use of alternative new crops for food, chemicals, and energy production. From a global perspective, the practical scientific and political recommendations suggest unique and attainable solutions not only to avert future tragedies, but to provide the economic boost of industrial raw materials production for many oppressed third world nations trying to enter the modern world. Anyone interested in understanding and altering the future course of the environment and the economy in arid regions of our planet will learn from and find fascinating this unique, concise, jargon-free book.., Columbia University Press, 1992, 3, London: BBC Books, 2003.

Hardback. First Edition. Dick Whittington. Fact and Fable. Tiny nip to top edge of back D/J. Foreword by The Right Honourable The Lord Mayor Sir Greville Spratt. Dick Whittingon achieved a unique double in that he not only won fame by his own efforts but also had fame thrust upon him. In acquiring fame, and fortune, he epitomised the best in the City of London in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. God, King, City govenrment and the welfare of the people of London, rich and poor alike, were all diven his due regard. The belief that cates, when loved and cared for, would bring wealth to their owners was the basis of stories in many lands and religions long before Dick Whittingon's time. So the people of England could have made no better choice than to have him as the hero of their version of the fable. The author has tried to make this remarkable man come alive to the reader. For those, who are presently enjoying the fruits of Dick Whitting's industry five hundred and sixty-five years after his death, such visionary thoughts will come a little easier.

This book speculates a broad range of background studies on urban land polices in India. Land and housing policies are of fundamental importance to sustainable economic growth and the well-being of the rapidly growing Indian population. Urban land, a scarce economic resource, quickly appreciate in value. Increasing pressure of population owing to industrialization, migration, and housing, lead to intense competition for this scarce resource. This consequently results in an abnormal rise in land prices. The send generation problems like urban poverty, non-behavioural, and socio-economic forces affect the land use patern and force a value to urban land. In view of public interest, the author indicates that need for policy intervention for regulating land supply and controlling its prices.

CRM was supposed to help businesses better understand their customers and increase efficiency. Yet most companies are not getting the return they expected. Is it possible to make your customers happy and, at the same time, improve ROI? Is there a practical, affordable way to get customers to tell you what they really want? In Why CRM Doesn’t Work, leading international marketing consultant Frederick Newell explains why it’s time to change the game to CMR (Customer Management of Relationships).

Newell shows by lesson and example why the current CRM isn’t working, what needs to change, and how to put the CMR philosophy to work at your company – without additional expense.
