  Choosing independent education is very expensive, yet its value can be incalculable. Choosing the right public school is therefore of great importance and involves a great deal of homework. Making the wrong choice could profoundly affect your child's educational, personal and social development. 
  This is not a definitive handbook nor is it intended to provide all the information needed for a particular school. But what it does give is a feel for the essence of the place, something which is often more important than facilities and much more difficult to capture. 
  The book includes important contributions from Anthony Wallersteiner, Headmaster of Stowe School, Barnaby Lenon, former Headmaster of Harrow, Sir Anthony Seldon, Headmaster of Wellington College, and Tony Little, Headmaster of Eton. 
  The first edition of this book was published in 2008. This updated and expanded edition examines the questions that remain: day vs boarding, co-ed vs single sex, academic rigour, all-round experience and, of course, affordability.

  3 books that will help you figure yourself out: 
  Book 1 - Personality Types 
  Who are you? No, not your profession or your sexiness, but your personality! Although we can all learn to behave a certain way, everyone has a certain tendency and energy about them. Everyone has a different personality type. But how do you find out your type? And how do personalities react to each other? How about figuring out how to live with your partner who has a different personality? So many people don’t understand others because they don’t understand themselves. And if you understand yourself, you will be happier, more productive, more patient with your own mistakes and others, and have an overall better life. So what’s keeping you from discovering how you can, more or less, categorize yourself? What lies at the basis of your true nature? 
  Book 2 - Emotional Maturity 
  Find out what it takes to be emotionally mature. Some people get older and never grow up. Others are very mature for their age. How can you determine when someone is really emotionally mature? And is there a way to become more mature faster?  Learn to be more mature now! We all know those people whom we consider to be mature. We all recognize it immediately. Women even claim it is one of the most important traits they look for in a partner. But how come we sometimes have a hard time pointing out why some people are more mature than others? 
  Book 3 - Enneagram 
  Different personality types seem to be all around us, despite of nature and nurture, they appear to stem from a higher, more essential self that has its own way of acting, thinking, and behaving. Despite the fact that each person's personality consists a neural complex mixture of experiences and emotions, there is a classification system that can help us recognize patterns and label them accordingly without judgmental tendencies.

  A History of English Place Names...

  An enlightening journey into the languages, meanings, and history behind the names on England’s map.   The origins of the names of many English towns, hamlets, and villages date as far back as Saxon times, when kings like Alfred the Great established fortified borough towns to defend against the Danes. A number of settlements were established and named by French Normans following the Conquest. Many are even older and are derived from Roman place names. Some hark back to the Vikings who invaded and established settlements in the eighth and ninth centuries.   Most began as simple descriptions of the location; some identified its founder, marked territorial limits, or gave tribal people a sense of their place in the grand scheme of things. Whatever their derivation, place names are inextricably bound up in history—and these are the stories behind them.

  "Multiplication Is for White...

  As MacArthur award–winning educator Lisa Delpit reminds us—and as all research shows—there is no achievement gap at birth. In her long-awaited second book, Delpit presents a striking picture of the elements of contemporary public education that conspire against the prospects for poor children of color, creating a persistent gap in achievement during the school years that has eluded several decades of reform. 
  Delpit's bestselling and paradigm-shifting first book, Other People's Children, focused on cultural slippage in the classroom between white teachers and students of color. Now, in "Multiplication Is for White People," Delpit reflects on two decades of reform efforts—including No Child Left Behind, standardized testing, the creation of alternative teacher certification paths, and the charter school movement—that have still left a generation of poor children of color feeling that higher educational achievement isn't for them. In chapters covering primary, middle, and high school, as well as college, Delpit concludes that it's not that difficult to explain the persistence of the achievement gap.
