Books to be published

If you look at the section on Written but not Published, you will see a number of books that were written some time ago and which it is now time to update and publish. This one is being published late 2019 as a study into Victorian urban development using Grangetown, Cardiff, as an example. It is a comprehensive history covering a period from the Norman Conquest to the end of the Victorian era.

I explain in the Personal Profile section, that I have a deep interest in, and practice, Japanese Zen Buddhism. I taught this ancient oriental discipline for a number of years at our mountain retreat centre; during the same period I wrote a number of modest-sized volumes explaining the practice. 

During this same period of ten years I taught management and leadership, combining Zen with management. The result was a large volume entitled Slow Leadership (see the section on Authorship) accompanied by several smaller ones addressing Zen and management.

I am currently examining with the publisher the publication of these booklets, possibly in a different or a combined format.
