Apprenticeships are the most favoured way of winning the global skills race and giving more young people a great start to their working lives. It is a race that employers and Government want to win. More parents should want it too. How are we doing and how can we ensure this is a race that the UK wins?

David Way CBE has a wealth of experience of apprenticeships. As a former CEO of the national Apprenticeship Service, he saw every aspect of apprenticeship success and the challenges that lay ahead.

David uses his extensive network of apprenticeship supporters and analysts to produce the widest range of insights into apprenticeships ever assembled in the UK. The contributors draw on their knowledge and experiences across Europe and around the world.

What is the current state of apprenticeships in the UK? What is working well? What more is needed to transform apprenticeships into the chosen route for ambitious young people and their parents? How can we ensure apprenticeships become the best means of attracting and managing new talent?

Will the Government achieve its ambition for three million more apprenticeships by 2020? How should success really be assessed? What more can employers, unions, trainers, schools, colleges, universities, careers services and others do?

Mark Byford searches for the spiritual meaning of the biblical story of the Annunciation through more than a hundred conversations and over two hundred images.

Facsimile edition, with an introduction and annotated transcription by Neil McCaw.

The Creeping Man is perhaps the most eccentric of all the Sherlock Holmes stories. A heady mix of familiar detective-investigation and seemingly outlandish science-fiction, it is the tale of the mysterious Professor Presbury, and the extraordinary consequences of his unremitting quest for eternal youth. And, as always, the only person who is able to decipher the clues and uncover the truth behind the peculiar, and even the outright bizarre, is the Great Detective, Sherlock Holmes. It is he who diagnoses the Professor’s apparent pathology, and he who in so doing re-establishes the status quo.

Bishop Morley of Winchester 1598-1684: Politician Benefactor Pragmatist by Andrew Thomson

“Christos Yannaras is one the most original and revolutionary thinkers of modern Europe, and in this arresting, demanding book he sets out his vision of how a post-truth society might rediscover the reality of shared meaning and the hope of authentic life. Bringing the Greek fathers into dialogue with the foremost thinkers of modernity, he gives us a comprehensive picture of what “logos” really means and why it matters.” - Dr Rowan Williams
