Captives: Britain, Empire, and the World, 1600-1850
by Linda ColleyIn this meticulously researched book, the author explores the phenomenon of British subjects held captive by non-European peoples between 1600 and 1850. She focuses on three arenas - the "Barbary coast" of North Africa, eastern North America, and India. During the 17th and 18th centuries, pirates from Morocco, Algiers, and other North African countries seized British ships and took captives into "white slavery." In North America and India, Britain's reach for empire led to conflict with native peoples, and British subjects were often taken captive. "Captivity narratives" became an established literary genre during this 250-year period. Colley draws upon dozens of such published accounts to bring the experience of British captives to life, and to place it in a broad historical framework.

by Publication Division GoiBuilding a strong industrial sector is always on top of the agenda for policy makers and those governing the country.

While the big industries like iron & steel, cars, electronic items, etc are in focus while discussing GDP and economic growth, there is a small industrial sector that plays an important role in both manufacturing products and employment generation but is hidden from view of economists and policy makers. This is the micro, medium and small industries sector.
Slut! Growing Up Female with a Bad Reputation
by Leora TanenbaumGirls may be called "sluts" for any number of reasons, including being outsiders, early developers, victims of rape, targets of others' revenge.
