THE SARTORIALIST

We’re extremely excited to be publishing Scott Schuman’s book THE SARTORIALIST to coincide with London Fashion Week this autumn. Scott has shot to fame for his stunning pictures of stylish people on city streets around the globe. He posts these pictures on his blog –  www.thesartorialist.com which now has 100,000 hits a day.

THE SPIRIT LEVEL

Here is a very small selection of the wonderful reviews Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett’s THE SPIRIT LEVEL has received since publication in March:

‘This is a book with a big idea, big enough to change political thinking …– John Carey, Sunday Times

‘Might be the most important book of the year’ – John Crace, Guardian

‘[That Inequality causes social ills] is a sweeping claim, yet the evidence, here painstakingly marshalled, is hard to dispute’ –Economist

‘Compelling and shocking. All free marketers should be made to memorize it from cover to cover’ – Yasmin Alibhai-Brown, Independent

WARRIOR OF ROME: KING OF KINGS
