Jane Ellen Panton (1847-1923) was the second daughter of the artist William Powell Frith, and an expert on domestic issues. First published in 1896, this is her guide to creating the 'dream house'. In it she draws on the experiences of Deborah and Dick, clients who sought her advice after looking unsuccessfully for a suitable home. The book is based on the notion that turning an existing building into a dream house is impossible, and begins by offering advice on finding land and building on it to create a home that could be 'the cradle of the race', passed on to successive generations. Panton devotes a chapter to each of the different parts of the house, from the governess's rooms to the maids' quarters. Providing a revealing insight into domestic middle-class tastes and concerns in late nineteenth-century England, this book remains of interest to social historians., Jane Ellen Panton (18471923) was the second daughter of the artist William Powell Frith, and an expert on domestic issues.

Talbot Hobbs?Contemporary policies and practices of long-term international engagement in the construction of democratic state capacities have been operationalised on the basis of the 'exceptionalism' argument: that is, the involvement of foreign agencies in the domestic institutional and policy-making processes of these states is seen as a necessary exception to the norm (of sovereign equality of states) because it is brought about by the need to contain or control global security risks (such as terrorism, crimes, illegal migration) arising from the weak governance capacity of 'fragile' or 'failing' states.While 'exceptionalism' has constituted the discursive and operational basis of these interventions, it has either been excluded from policy and academic discussions on state capacity-building or referred only to explain the pursuit of such policies in the context of the 'war on terror' following the 9/11 attacks Rather than emphasising how the exercise of 'exceptional' forms of power by intervening agencies undermines the sovereign capacity of intervened states, this book shifts the focus of the debate to the nature of contemporary intervention as an act of statemaking.Hobbs' powerful organisational skills positioned him as Australia's highest ranking soldier in Europe after the Great War.The Gorbachev Factortells the gripping story of Gorbachev's rise and fall, a story full of intrigue, secret meetings, and power struggles.DeVido steers the reader through the intricacies of the client-architect relationship and offers valuable suggestions on how to design for specific people who will live in specific spaces on a day-to-day basis.This book examines the results of empirical micro-level studies undertaken in the Okavango Delta and contributes to the formulation of relevant policies for sustainable development in the Okavango Delta.This book also places the show s use of irony in historical and philosophical contexts, connecting it to a rich cultural tradition reaching back to ancient Greece.
