This excellent little book is a wonderful introduction to the story of the trial of the witches of Pendle in 1612. In a very lively & readable style Christine Goodier provides a whos who of the events as well as an interesting angle on the trials themselves. She emphasises that the accused were merely flesh & blood not demons arguing that they were poor uneducated people who were at worst misguided.

Dr Mike Moreno's 17 Day Diet is a revolutionary new weight-loss programme that activates your skinny gene so that you burn fat day in & day out. The diet is structured around four 17-day cycles: Accelerate
- the rapid weight loss portion that helps flush sugar & fat storage from your system; Activate-the metabolic restart portion with alternating low & high calorie days to help shed body fat; Achieve
- this phase is about learning to control portions & introducing new fitness routines; Arrive
- A combination of the first three cycles to keep good habits up for good. Each cycle changes your calorie count & the food that you're eating. The variation that Dr. Mike calls 'body confusion' is designed to keep your metabolism guessing. This is not a diet that relies on a tiny list of approved foods gruelling exercise routines or unrealistic calorie counts that leave you hungry & unfulfilled. Each phase comes with extensive lists of what dieters can & can't eat while on the phase but also offers acceptable cheats. He advises readers not to drink while on the diet but concedes that if they absolutely have to then they should at least drink red wine. Dr Mike knows that a diet can only work if it's compatible with the real world & so he's designed the programme with usability as a top priority.

How do we know where we are in the current stock market cycle? Are we in the midst of a new long term bull market or a market rally within an ongoing bear market? The answers to the above questions are critical to forming an appropriate investment strategy to plan for the future. The difference between anticipating the end of a secular (or cyclical) bull market & reacting to the significant crash that follows will have a big impact on anyone's investment returns & retirement plans. This book is concerned with cycles. A cycle is a sequence of events that repeat over time. The outcome won't necessarily be the same each time but the underlying characteristics are the same. A good example is the seasonal cycle. Each year we have spring summer autumn & winter & after winter we have spring again. But the weather can & does vary a great deal from one year to another. & so it is with the stock market. Kerry Balenthiran has studied stock market data going back 100 years & discovered a regular 17.6 year stock market cycle consisting of increments of 2.2 years. He has also extrapolated the cycle forwards to provide investors with a market roadmap stretching out to 2053. He describes this in detail & outlines the changing character of the stock market through the different phases of the 17.6 year stock market cycle. Whether you are an investment professional or private investor this book provides a fascinating insight into the cyclical nature of the stock market & enables you to ensure that you have the right strategy for the prevailing stock market conditions. ...
