This clear and detailed analysis, first published in 1976, of recruitment methods, staff development techniques, staff motivation, and organisational structures will be valuable to data processing managers and personnel officers alike. Its practical flavour and real understanding will also be welcomed by general management. The guidelines and detailed checklists will help cut the direct costs of recruiting and the often astonishingly high indirect costs of rapid staff turnover.

What began as an online book order for an early edition Walt Whitman, grew into an unlikely friendship between Sandy Barton, a teacher from Buffalo, New York and Anthony Chandor, an antiquarian book seller from Bath, England. Total strangers on December 8, 2010, Anthony and Sandy found that by December 10th they were hooked, so began their journey. Through the cold months of winter they exchanged daily emails, telling tales of their families, of their careers and of their vastly different lives. By March there were nearly 1,500 emails - enough to convince Sandy that it was time to turn their correspondence into a book. Her excitement about the project was met with less than raging enthusiasm. Anthony believed their "story" mirrored that of Helene Hanff's '84 Charing Cross Road'. Sandy had never heard of Hanff's book and stormed ahead with her idea. Abjectedly Yours tracks this unlikely friendship from its beginning, through life's challenges and triumphs, and eventually across the Atlantic for a face-to-face meeting. Their friendship spans a generation and two continents, yet it tenderly weaves two lives together in an enchanting, undeniable way. Abjectedly Yours treats the reader to a glimpse of life in Buffalo and Bath, of world travels and hometown joys, and of the precious gift two strangers gave to one another. Pull up a chair, get comfortable, and listen in on their conversations. See for yourself what grew from one simple email.

Anthony and Maryanne Chandor suffer a disaster when a scoundrel embezzles most of the working capital of their British-based computer software company. Determined not to sit about moaning, they move from Surrey to Bath. After Anthony had practised in a Bath Wednesday Market, he bought the lease of a hairdresser's shop near their flat in Brock Street, Bath, England. In Not So Dusty, Anthony recalls how they built up the bookshop from nothing, and explains the mysteries of the auction room, and what goes on in the dark world of the Ring. There are helpful instructions on how to deal with drunks, the ever-present problem of thieves, and the less ever-present but no less formidable problem of the seductress, flaunting herself before the imprisoned shopkeeper. Read of celebrities visiting the shop, of visits by other book dealers and about book fairs held all over the country. And lest we forget, the excitement of house calls, somehow always 'two hundred yards before a telephone kiosk and with white gates you can't miss...' - except when it's pitch dark on a winter's evening. Every page is both funny and informative, invaluable to anyone thinking of starting a book shop, and as pleasant a read as you are likely to find, enhanced by brilliant illustrations by Tim Jaques.
