Beschreibung

Ayrshire has a rich and varied history. The region has been inhabited from earliest times, as the remains of duns, cairns and barrows show. In the medieval period it played a key role in the emergence and consolidation of a unified Scotland, and it was from one of Ayrshire's many powerful families that the Stewart line of kings emerged. From this period there remain many castles and tower-houses. In more recent times, great houses such as Culzean were rebuilt by the finest architects of their day, and there are a number of important sites dating from the Industrial Revolution.
This book is both a narrative history and a guidebook featuring maps and plans as well as a detailed gazetteer enabling the visitor to locate and fully appreciate the many sites described.
Verfügbar seit: 15.05.2025.

    From Acorns to Oaks - An Urgent...

    When Michael Heseltine wrote his acclaimed autobiography, Life in the Jungle, he assumed his political career was over. He returned to Haymarket, his publishing business, and intended to explore more of the world and pursue his passions outside politics.
    His assumption was wrong. David Cameron called him, tentatively at first but gradually with increased responsibility, back to the corridors of power.
    This second memoir is a potpourri of reminiscences about Heseltine's life and previously unexplored aspects of his stellar political career. But the main reason for Heseltine taking up his pen again has been to look back on the fundamental changes he was able to mastermind while in government and to set out the policies that are urgently needed to unite the country by driving growth, increasing prosperity and restoring hope. He combines this with new revelations about the seismic Westland scandal, the establishment cover-up that caused him to resign from Margaret Thatcher's Cabinet, and a damning assessment of what he considers the grievous act of self-harm inflicted on Britain by Brexit.
    This extraordinary new memoir offers an urgent agenda to rebuild Britain from one of our last great statesmen, who has been at the forefront of business and politics for the past sixty years.

    Passive Aggression - Indirectly...

    Passive aggression is a form of indirect expression of hostility, where individuals communicate negative feelings, frustration, or anger without openly addressing them. Rather than confronting an issue head-on, the person engages in behaviors that subtly undermine or resist others, often making it difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of tension. These actions are often seen as passive because the aggressor avoids direct confrontation, preferring instead to express their displeasure in subtle, often disguised ways. While passive aggression can sometimes seem harmless or even humorous, it can cause significant distress and damage to relationships over time. 
    Understanding passive aggression requires an exploration of the psychological mechanisms behind it. People who exhibit passive aggressive behavior often struggle with direct confrontation. This may stem from fear of rejection, a lack of assertiveness, or an inability to express anger healthily. In many cases, these individuals are unable or unwilling to articulate their true emotions and instead choose passive-aggressive tactics to deal with frustration. This behavior can manifest in a range of actions, including procrastination, forgetfulness, silent treatment, sarcasm, and even sabotage. 
    One of the challenges of dealing with passive aggression is that it is often hidden beneath seemingly innocuous actions or words. For example, someone might agree to help with a task but intentionally delay or perform it poorly, thus conveying their resistance without direct confrontation. Similarly, someone might offer backhanded compliments or use sarcasm to indirectly express contempt while maintaining a facade of politeness. These subtle acts of hostility can leave the recipient confused, frustrated, and unsure of how to respond, as the negative feelings are often not openly acknowledged.
