Brickwork is a form of masonry that utilises bricks and mortar. Rows of bricks—or, 'courses'—are placed on top of each other in order to create a structure such as a wall. This is volume I of William Frost's “The Modern Bricklayer”, a detailed guide to all aspects of bricklaying, including slating, tiling, planning, materials, tools, and more. Contents include: “House Drains”, “Egg-Shaped and Circular Sewers”, “Sand Courses”, “Retaining Walls”, “Reinforced Brickwork”, “Arches”, “Cornices”, “Gauged Brickwork: Introduction”, “Gauged Work—Various Forms of Arches”, “Gauges Work—Arches”, “Gauged Work: Ninches, Panels, and Mouldings”, “Terra-cotta and Glazed Ware”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on DIY.

Attachment Theory is one of the most important theoretical developments in psychoanalysis to have emerged in the past half-century. It combines the rigorous scientific empiricism of ethology with the subjective insights of psychoanalysis, and has had an enormous impact in the fields of child development, social work, psychology, and psychiatry. This is the first known book to appear which brings together John Bowlby and post-Bowlbian research and shows how the findings of Attachment Theory can inform the practice of psychotherapy. It also provides fascinating insights into the history of the psychoanalytic movement and looks at the ways in which Attachment Theory can help in the understanding of society and its problems.
