Sinopsis

In 1801, some five years after Robert Burns' death, nine of his friends sat down to dinner in what is now known as Burns Cottage in Alloway to celebrate his extraordinary life and to give thanks for his friendship. Over the years the informal theme from that evening has developed into the ritual known as Burns Night.
This best-selling book is the essential guide for anyone intending to hold or attend a Burns Night of any size. In addition to setting out the order of events for the evening, the Burns Supper Companion also offers fascinating insights into the traditions surrounding Burns Night.
Nancy Marshall has spent a large part of her life living and working in Edinburgh. She read English Literature and Medieval History at Edinburgh University, going on to write widely about Scottish song and the poems and songs of Robert Burns.

    Noah was directed by the Lord to make an ark, in which he, his family, and a number of birds and animals, would not be drowned by the flood. God's decision to bring a flood upon the earth was deeply influenced by the reality of evil that He saw carried out by the human race. The song by Chey, 'The Book of Life' at the end of the sermon, gives the listener an opportunity to reflect on the sermon.

    Urban sociology is the study of social life and human interaction in metropolitan environments. It is a field that explores the complex dynamics between individuals, communities, and institutions in urban settings. As cities continue to grow and transform, urban sociology provides invaluable insights into the structure and functioning of urban life, offering a lens through which we can understand how cities shape the behaviors, values, and relationships of their inhabitants. 
    The origins of urban sociology trace back to the rapid industrialization and urbanization of the 19th century. As people moved from rural areas to cities in search of better economic opportunities, new social challenges emerged, leading scholars to examine the effects of urban environments on social structures and individual behaviors. Urban sociologists have long been concerned with the ways in which cities influence issues like inequality, social mobility, family dynamics, crime, and community organization. 
    One of the central themes in urban sociology is the concept of social organization. Cities are intricate systems, with diverse populations, complex economies, and a wide range of institutions such as schools, businesses, governments, and religious organizations. Each of these institutions plays a vital role in shaping how people interact with one another and how they navigate their lives in an urban context. By studying these systems, urban sociologists seek to understand how cities function as both social entities and as arenas of competition, cooperation, and conflict.

    'I love this book' Fern Britton
    'Laugh out loud funny' Kate Bottley
    An explosive satire of gender stereotypes that flips patriarchy on its head to highlight sexist double standards.
    Exploring subjects like work and comedy, history and sport, the beauty industry and domesticity, anonymous author Man Who Has It All imagines a world in which men are bombarded with the same stereotypical bullshit as women. What if men's T-shirts were emblazoned with slogans encouraging them to be smiley, positive and kind? What if we laughed at jokes about fathers-in-law, male drivers and middle-class men of a certain age? What if men's history was a niche topic? Behind the jokes about crazy cat gentlemen, testerical men and the twenty-four-hour moustache, lies a deeper, darker message about language, power and control.
    Smart and provocative, Man Who Has It All shines a powerful light on the prejudice ingrained in our society. Told through fictionalised scenarios and wider cultural analysis, this is a feminist handbook that will arm you against the patriarchy.
    'Funny and insightful, but also fiercely radical' Victoria Smith
    'Takes on patriarchy with wit, verve and a mighty dose of good old British sarcasm' Viv Groskop, author of How to Own the Room
    'We need to hide copies in every locker room, Wetherspoons and B&Q' Eleanor Morton, comedian and actor
    'Man Who Has It All does a remarkable job of channelling anger into humour . . . a galvanising read' Rachel Hewitt, author of In Her Nature
