The Baram Venture


Book Description

When There Are Armies Gathered For Invasion, Hermits Foretelling Prophecies and Wizards Planning on Taking Over The World, Two Unlikely Heroes Emerge When Elves and Humans worked alongside each other, struggling to find meaning in the changing world around them, magic, greed and power threaten to destroy civilisation as they knew it Excerpt - "Night closed around the two travellers like a falling blanket of black cotton wool. The wisps of evening mist danced and teased before them, vanishing like a gypsy dancer when the travellers got too close. The sun had only just finished weaving its way through the thick trunks and canopy of trees that had been their shelter for three days, and the sudden plunge into darkness seemed even more dramatic because of it. A heavily wooded region this part of the Kingdom of Taron was reputed to be, and there was no evidence to challenge that belief here, except a slight thinning of the trees as a villagers’ evening lanterns filtered their light softly through the maze of trees, providing a beacon for the weary travellers to follow." Thought provoking and yet endearing, the characters are real, the setting is believable and the underlying messages are poignant. A fantasy adventure that has violence and sexual innuendo. Not suitable for pre-teens. Using their guile and wit, fighting their emotions and cultural belief, in a struggle to do the right thing, Halon & Saldon, with their mysterious allies, fight the madmen and try to restore order to the world in turmoil.

Responsible Leadership


Book Description

As Chairman of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group from 1991–2001 and Anglo American plc from 2002–2009, Sir Mark Moody-Stuart is as qualified as anyone on the planet to discuss the realities, dilemmas and lessons to be learnt from the last 20 years of corporate engagement with sustainability, ethics and responsibility. In this unique book – part memoir, part confessional, part manifesto for leadership – we hear a unique voice from the front line of corporate responsibility. Moody-Stuart retraces the steps of a remarkable journey from being a postgraduate geologist to being at the helm of two of the largest corporations in the world.We hear of dealings with dictators and prime ministers, colleagues and NGOs, rivals and friends. We travel from Syria to Nigeria; Iraq to Downing Street; and from the machinations of the United Nations to those inside the boardroom of Shell. We see Shell’s annus horribilis in 1995 unfold through the eyes of an insider, and how Brent Spar and the execution of Ken Saro-Wiwa sent shockwaves through the company, resulting in a complete reappraisal of its mission and principles. We hear about the oil and mining sectors and their complicated development role in areas of conflict and corruption; the way that markets have failed us on climate change and corruption; and how governments need to step up to the global challenges we face. We hear how Deepwater Horizon could have been avoided; what Shell were asked to do by Tony Blair during the UK fuel blockades of 2000 and why they declined; why China is too important to ignore; and why the Global Compact is too important to fail. We hear lessons from a life spent living in 10 different countries and we come to realize that, for corporations, trying to do the right thing can sometimes be almost impossible. We also come to know a deeply ethical and thoughtful leader who has always tried to do exactly that.




A History of Brunei


Book Description

The only full-length study of the Brunei Sultanate from the earliest times to the present. First published in 1994 and a sell-out success, RoutledgeCurzon is pleased to present this new edition, updated to the present. Saunders skilfully elucidates historiographical controversies over important events, persons and developments in Brunei's past which are still important issues in defining Brunei's identity and its political and social systems today. These controversies, over the antecedents of the Sultanate, the date of the conversion to Islam, the reigns of the early sultans, early contacts with Europeans and others, retain their relevance. Newly presented are interpretations of events since 1945 during the transition from protected state to full independence, and thence to the present Malay Islamic Monarchy.
