Ian White Livres

Presents the history of Air Intercept (AI) radar and its use in night-fighters in defence of the UK and in the protection of RAF bomber forces. This work also describes the development of jet-powered night-fighters, and the changes in the air defence situation with the introduction of strategic bombers by the Soviet Union, and the atomic bomb.

The Shell of Stone is Ian Nimmo White's third book-length collection of poetry. The author being a keen genealogist, many of these poems resonate with his passion for heritage, some marking major events of the twentieth century, with other poems travelling even further back to previous centuries. The author also touches on the inevitable passing of time and his own ageing, which he addresses with some mischief and fun. While there is always a presence of nostalgia, sometimes sadness, White balances this with poems about the joy of having grandchildren, observations of wildlife and the ever-increasing amount of time he is spending in his garden. The reader is left with feelings of respect for the past together with hope for the future. White's poetry is laced with warmth and humanity, not to mention a good helping of his native Scottish humour. The experience gained in a four-decade-long career in community service has given the poet a priceless knowledge and understanding of the lives of ordinary men and women, who will be able to relate to these poems and enjoy them.

This guide has been prepared by people who have brought about real change in organisations which had previously found change difficult - leopards that needed to change their spots. The core of the guide describes a systems approach to change management which is effective for organisations that need to make radical change, hence the title "Changing Spots". The focus of this work is to achieve a step change in performance - improvements in competitiveness, financial performance, customer service, quality of conformance, cost effectiveness and employee motivation.

Ian White follows his hugely popular study of Witchcraft & Black Magic in British Cult Cinema with an in-depth look at some of the screen's most celebrated hauntings. From the genteel spookiness of The Uninvited to the out-and-out terrors of The Amityville Horror and epic Eighties' shocker The Shining. Turn on the lights - this is definitely not a book to read alone in the dark!
