Since its first publication, Hugh Thomas s The Spanish Civil War has become established as the definitive one-volume history of a conflict that continues to provoke intense controversy today. What was it that roused left-wing sympathizers from all over the world to fight against Franco between 1936 and 1939? Why did the British and US governments refuse to intervene? And why did the Republican cause collapse so violently? Now revised and updated, Hugh Thomas s classic account presents the most objective and unbiased analysis of a passionate struggle where fascism and democracy, communism and Catholicism were at stake - and which was as much an international war as a Spanish one. Remarkable ... a definitive account Sunday Times A prodigy of a book ... about the most heroic and pitiful story of the twentieth century Michael Foot His masterwork Independent A full, vivid and deeply serious treatment of a great subject The New York Times Book Review Hugh Thomas is the author of, among other books, The Spanish Civil War (1962), which won the Somerset Maugham Award, Cuba: The Pursuit of Freedom (1971), An Unfinished History of the World (1979), and the first volume of his Spanish Empire trilogy, Rivers of Gold (2003).

Uncover common project management myths to improve project success How to Measure Anything in Project Management explains why popular methods for measurement in project management are flawed and describes how to conduct measurements that better inform decisions, reduce project risks, and improve the chance of project success. The authors argue that anything that matters to project management at all is measurable and that these measurements address many of the problems in project management. The authors leverage an exclusive survey on the state-of-the-art of measuring projects, new case studies of things that are seemingly hard to measure and a database, collected by Oxford Global Projects, of thousands of projects in software development, construction, energy, and many other fields, including some of the biggest projects in history. The book is accompanied by a set of useful spreadsheet-based power tools that support the more technical aspects of quantifying project risk, forecasting outcomes, and conducting seemingly difficult measurements. In this book, readers will learn: Why many of the methods they have been taught to use are little more than a type of ⠜analysis placebo⠝Why many popular methods lead to extreme overconfidence in estimatesHow some of the most important measurements a project could conduct are currently rarely used How to Measure Anything in Project Management earns a well-deserved spot on the bookshelves of managers, executives, auditors, controllers, and consultants seeking to improve project performance through superior measurement methodology.

Bristol and Bath are two beautiful, closely connected cities. They are portrayed through the eyes of their artists in a delightful variety of styles in this stunning book.The Bristol and Bath Art Book portrays two very different cities. The beautiful images in the book capture the breath-taking landscape of rivers, hills and gorges which they share, but also the citiesâ ™ sights that are so unique. Bristol is painted as busy, quirky and vibrant, where Bath glows in more tranquil hues. These important cities in the history of the world are intimately connected.The river Avon that flows through both cities, gouges the spectacular Avon Gorge at Bristol, which is where its international maritime connections begin.The regenerated old docks (the â ™floating harbourâ ™), Wapping Wharf and the quayside are lovingly depicted by various artists. Now that the main docks are outside the city, the harbour-side now bustles with shops, bars and offices, but there are still cranes to be seen at the M shed. Underfall boatyard remains a home to maritime businesses and is also pictured in this lovely book, along with pleasure craft and houseboats in the harbour.John Cabotâ ™s The Matthew is the ship that put America on the map. The reconstruction is depicted in drawings and paintings. She may have been a pirate ship at one time, too, as Bristol was the birthplace of Blackbeard and had a thriving piracy business.From this Atlantic connection, the list of items traded expanded from wool, wine and grain to tobacco and alas, to slaves. The profits from this trade endowed many of the fine public monuments drawn and painted here. Like many places, Bristol is undertaking a new reckoning with its history.The great engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel designed the Clifton Suspension Bridge to span the deep Avon Gorge. In the book, there are many images of this vertiginous bridge: ringed by balloons, luminous in the gloaming, stark in the snow, or painted to resemble a cathedral arch from below. It is a much-loved, living monument to the great man.His Great Western Railway terminus at Temple Meads features here in drawings and prints, along with his pioneering Bristol-built steamship, the SS Great Britain.Crossing Brunelâ ™s famous bridge over the Avon, you will find yourself in the tranquil Leigh woods, painted as a hotspot for bluebells in spring.The old Railway Path, flat, traffic-free and lined with greenery, takes you from Bristol to Bath, where you will find more gorgeous parks: the Georgian garden in the town centre, Alexandra Park with panoramas of the city and the Botanical Gardens with its aerial walkway.Bath is a UNESCO world heritage site because of its Roman remains and exquisite Georgian architecture. Its famous Roman Baths were built around a hot spring the Romans believed sacred to the Goddess Sulis and the city became a centre for health and an inspiration for artists.Its 18th-century architecture: The Royal Crescent, The Circus, Pulteney Bridge and Assembly Rooms, are all examples of Bathâ ™s heyday as a Georgian spa town and are featured in the art book in stunning paintings, drawings and collages.They capture the Bath that Jane Austen would have known from her time in the city. Here, movies of some of her novels have been filmed, along with many other Regency era series e.g. the record-breaking series Bridgerton.
