Sinopse

365 Reasons To Be Proud To Be British is a year-long scenic route of jollyness taking in the quirky events, inventions, traditions, people, places and characters that make Great Britain a nation worth celebrating every day of the year. Because it is great. Come on, admit it, has there ever been a more inventive, adventurous, creative and eccentric race than the British? We don't think so and 365 Reasons To Be Proud To Be British proves it brilliantly. In the book you'll find a historical year's worth of the discoveries, delights and derring-do that make Britain a place to love and cherish, a place of wonder and an island that attracts 27 million people through its doors. From the Cornish beaches to the glorious Welsh mountains; from the square-eyed joys of BBC telly to the incredible 'Knowledge' of the London cabbie; from our peerless pop music royalty to the globally renowned remedial powers of the perfect cuppa Britain rules, every single day of the year.

    Apart from the headline-making politics, not much is known in the West about the Korean people and their ancient culture. Yet those who visit Korea, whether North or South, find a land of great interest. The Koreans, when not constrained by politics or other considerations, are friendly and sociable, and the peninsula has areas of outstanding natural beauty. The South’s cities, if not always beautiful, are vibrant and alive. The North, while very different, is complex and fascinating.The standoff between the two countries of the Korean Peninsula is a legacy of the Cold War and a potential flashpoint for future conflict. Despite a brief thaw in relations a few years ago, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) in the north, a secretive single-party socialist state with a centralized industrial economy, conducted nuclear tests in 2006 and 2009. The Republic of Korea (ROK) in the south meanwhile, a free-market democracy, has become a rising economic power and, in 2010, became the first former aid recipient to join the OECD Development Assistance Committee.This new, updated edition of Culture Smart! Korea looks at the changing social and economic situation and provides real insights into thinking and behavior in both countries. It indicates the pitfalls to avoid and introduces listeners to some of the many delights of the Korean peninsula.

    Turn to an ancient Japanese needlework technique to update your home in a striking and minimalist way—from the author of The Ultimate Sashiko Source Book. 
     
    The traditional Japanese embroidery technique, sashiko, is currently a major sewing trend in craft, interior design, and fashion. The big stitches are used to create stunning, geometric patterns and texture to make homewares with a stylish, Japanese minimalist look. 
     
    This collection of eight simple sashiko patterns allows you try the technique yourself—projects include a tote bag, greetings cards, cushion, table mats, coaster, pocket hanging, a long sampler and Ranru hanging. 
     
    Susan Briscoe is a leading expert in this traditional Japanese sewing technique, having first been introduced to sashiko in the early 1990s while teaching English in northern Japan. 
     
    “This book, like the craft that it takes as its focus, is minimalist and small . . . But I think that the simplicity of this collection really allows the individual pieces to shine . . . The photography is stunning, placing modern design against white walls with bits of Japanese art and decor sprinkled in.” —Right Sides Together
