Much like in the present day, building a house in the sixteenth century involved masons, carpenters and glaziers, among others, and in many cities such trades had separate companies to govern their own affairs. In Edinburgh, however, they banded together in a single body – the Edinburgh Incorporation of Mary’s Chapel. Building Early Modern Edinburgh traces the history of the organisation, which sought to control the capital’s building trades and defend their privileges. By utilising a range of previously missing charters and archival documents, the author offers a new perspective on the prestigious and important craft guild in its 543 years of existence. Developing a crucial theme of ‘composite corporatism’, and using the concepts of ‘family’ and ‘household’ to approach an urban institution, this book is a valuable resource of comparative material for the study of craft guilds and urban history in a global context.

To be a "poet" or not to be, that is the question I ask my mind all the time. "My Poetic Mind" is a new collection of poems by up and coming poet/author Aaron Allen. Here again, he has written his dramatic life and mind into a poetic prose as each poem speaks to one issue at a time.

Two people walk into life with the same intelligence and opportunities. One comes out incredibly successful, and the other fails. What makes the difference? That's the question bestselling author Robert G. Allen kept asking himself. He had spent most of his life writing finance books and teaching courses for hundreds of thousands of students. He noticed that certain students would put his systems to work with incredible results, while others would stumble, become overwhelmed, and stop working towards their goals. If the students were the same, and the information was the same, what was the problem? The problem was the follow-thru. We all want to follow-thru--to reach our goals, to earn more, to have closer relationships, better health, and more time freedom. But our lives are full of distractions. It's easy to lose sight of what we really want. Even the most powerful course or book only stays with us for a few days. Most people fail to change long-term because they don't create habits to reinforce what's truly important. What's needed is a simple daily system to help us stay on target. Welcome to The Four Maps.
