We have practiced "social distancing" since the beginning of time, whether it be because of a modern day virus or a virus that has permeated human relationships throughout history. We continue to practice social distancing through the virus of prejudice, discrimination, judgement, superiority, bullying, and fear. Our world has become a global village where, irrespective of race, religion, nationality or colour, we, as social beings, are socially distanced from each other. Modern technology has allowed us to communicate with distant strangers but makes it more difficult to communicate with the person sitting next to us. "Freckles and Dara - A Fable for all Ages!" is a modern day parable about how two innocent but gifted lambs try to eradicate social distancing and remind us that life is richer and more colourful if we see it in all its diversity. But are we willing to pay the price? The end of the book contains two sets of reflection and discussion questions. One can be used by parents to discuss issues raised in the book with their children. The other contains questions adults can use to reflect on how such issues may have affected them on their journey to adulthood.

The Production of Political Television (1977) is a study of the organization and methods of production of political television that covers not only news broadcasts and current affairs programmes but all programmes involved with the policy making process in Britain. It examines the procedures by which producers put their programmes together, and analyses the impact of external institutions on the programme-making process.

William M. Thackeray, said that "the world is a looking glass and gives back to every person the reflection of his own face." Life holds a mirror to us daily. We see our own reflection in the faces of others; our own story etched in their brows; our own thoughts imbedded in their brain; our own heartstrings entwined in theirs; our own secrets hidden deep within their psyche and our own story told through the pages of their lives.If you need food for thought; a short reflection; a nightcap that is not addictive; a shot in the arm that doesn't hurt; a cure for insomnia; a marriage of your head and heart; a lucid moment; a scrambler of your thought process; a heart stress buster; a soul sojourn; then this book will tickle your funny bone and even allow you shed a tear or two. It will help you climb a mountain of doubt and embrace a plethora of new insights. It will cure your myopic view of life with laser precisions and replace it with a panoramic view of life.In the comings and goings of your life, May the Wind be always at your Back.
