Set in 1947 The Case of the Grease Monkey's Uncle tells the story of James Arbuthnott and Archibald Cluff, two recently demobbed soldiers and their first case for the Arbuthnott and Cluff Detective Agency. An unlikely pairing, James was the taller of the two, with wavy fair hair and a moustache to match, very much the Officer and Gentleman and although of Scottish descent he had no trace of an accent, educated at Eton he had that distinguished confident air that immediately says, good breeding whilst his colleague was shorter and an altogether rougher diamond with ginger hair, from the East End of London, it would be true to say that one was tall and good looking whilst the other was not so lucky in the looks department and was built like a brick out house. Their first case involves the mysterious disappearance of the Uncle of William Trubshaw and involves, criminality, murder, intrigue, heroism and occasionally downright stupidity.

This book is designed to help those learning and teaching Computer Science. The aim of the book is to help students build fluency in their Python programming. The book would suit students who have already been introduced to the three basic programming constructs of structured programming, namely sequence, selection and iteration. The learning curve for programming can be quite steep and this book aims to ease this transition by encouraging practise and gradually introducing more complex concepts such as lists and 2D lists, file writing and using procedures and functions. Originally, the book was written for my 14-16 year old students studying for their GCSE Computer Science programming exam. However, I hope a wide range of students and teachers will find this book useful.

Some people are naturally generous. For the rest of us in this increasingly individualistic, selfish society, generosity seems like a worthy but impractical aspiration. Generosity is a skill that can be practiced and learned. This book shows you how to do it through: REAL-LIFE EXAMPLES; RELEVANT BIBLE PASSAGES and PRACTICAL ACTION POINTS. St. Paul encouraged everyone to "be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God" (2 CORINTHIANS 9:11 NIV). These 31 bite-size devotions, plus 5 reflections for special occasions, take you on a journey of generosity. They are suitable for personal study, small groups, and church worship services."These talks are filled with insight, wisdom, and life perspectives, accompanied by a touch of gentle humor." Dr. Edmund Janzen, former President of Fresno Pacific University
