Looking at the changed face of his country, hitchens finds a "politically correct zeal for the new" whose impact on daily life has been "as devastating in effect, if not in violence, as mao tse tung's cultural revolution in china"writing with passion and flair, hitchens targets the pernicious effects of tv culture, the "corruption and decay" of the english language, the loss of politeness, and the "syrupy confessional mood" brought on by the death of diana, which hitchens contrasts with the somber national response to the death of winston churchillif there is a term that summarizes everything that has gone wrong in britain, it is "tony blairism," which hitchens sees as having rewritten england's history, trivialized its journalism, subverted its educational system and cultural standards, and overthrown accepted notions of patriotism, faith, and moralitythe new britain is government by focus group in which people are told what to feel as a way of preventing them from asking how they want to be governedone english critic called the abolition of britain "an elegant jeremiad" in which peter hitchens identifies everything that has gone wrong with britain since world war ii and makes the case for "those many millions who feel that they have become foreigners in their own land and wish with each succeeding day that they could turn the clock backoxfam bookshop cheltenham a surprise best seller in england, the abolition of britain is bitingly witty and fiercely argued, yet also filled with somber appreciation for what "the idea of england" has always meant to the west and to the world at large" see oxfam website for delivery information read more

While most books about gothic cathedrals focus on a particular building or on the cathedrals of a specific region, the gothic enterprise considers the idea of the cathedral as a humanly created spaceoxfam bookshop brighton the great gothic cathedrals of europe are among the most astonishing achievements of western culturefinally, by drawing comparisons between gothic cathedrals and other monumental building projects, such as stonehenge, scott expands our understanding of the human impulses that shape our landscapescott explores why medieval people built gothic cathedrals, how they built them, what conception of the divine lay behind their creation, and how religious and secular leaders used cathedrals for social and political purposesscott's narrative offers a wealth of fascinating details concerning daily life during medieval timesscott also explains such things as the role of relics, the quarrying and transporting of stone, and the incessant conflict cathedral-building projects caused within their communitiessee oxfam website for delivery information read morethis engrossing book surveys an era that has fired the historical imagination for centuriesthe author describes the difficulties master-builders faced in scheduling construction that wouldn't be completed during their own lifetimes, how they managed without adequate numeric systems or paper on which to make detailed drawings, and how climate, natural disasters, wars, variations in the hours of daylight throughout the year, and the celebration of holy days affected the pace and timing of workevoking feelings of awe and humility, they make us want to understand what inspired the people who had the audacity to build themscott discusses why an impoverished people would commit so many social and personal resources to building something so physically stupendous and what this says about their ideas of the sacred, especially the vital role they ascribed to the divine as a protector against the dangers of everyday lifeas a traveller's companion or a rich source of knowledge for the armchair enthusiast, the gothic enterprise helps us understand how ordinary people managed such tremendous feats of physical and creative energy at a time when technology was rudimentary, famine and disease were rampant, the climate was often harsh, and communal life was unstable and incessantly violent
