From steam engines & suspension bridges to canals, factories & pubs, the Industrial Revolution of the 18th & 19th centuries transformed the social & material landscape of Britain. Yet how many of us know why our local pub looks the way it does or why a railway station might resemble a cathedral? This book reveals how, by 'reading' buildings, structures & townscapes, we can understand their context & significance for the society that created them. Author Tim Cooper uses themes including transport, education & religion to show how the geographical & architectural remains of industrial Britain have shaped us as a people. He sheds light on how & why the pioneers of the Industrial Revolution redesigned our towns & countryside, & draws on a wealth of British sites to explain, for instance, how canals were instrumental in the expansion of industry, or why affluent suburbs are usually situated in the west end of a town. This book is a joy for anyone wanting to investigate our industrial heritage & discover the secret history behind familiar, everyday features of our urban & rural landscapes. ...

Running the country is a complex operation & with trust in politicians at an all time low, many of us find ourselves ranting at the telly in frustration. So who better than Haynes to produce a 'workshop manual' that explains in plain English how the system works
- a 'nuts & bolts' guide to all the big questions that politicians like to dodge.

Split into sections covering economics, politics & society, we show how to strip down the machinery of state & give it a good service.

Generously illustrated with cartoons & helpful photos throughout, this Haynes manual explains what's gone wrong, & how or fix it. The authors address difficult issues, like the country's enormous debts & rising levels of inequality, arguing that it's not too late to learn the lessons of the 2007-8 crash, which nearly bankrupted Britain.

So if you're fed up with squabbling politicians, this clearly written expert guide, with its focus on debunking technical jargon, makes the subjects of politics & economics accessible to all.
