It advocates revitalization of the ethnographic methodologies of sociologists who entered newsrooms in the 1970s and 1980s, while simultaneously exploring new theoretical frameworks to better understand the evolution of online ...

David Paterson, Craig David

Birlinn Ltd, 2004

Perfect Title
This amazing picture-and-story book tells the harsh and poignant story of the Highland Clearances, a catastrophic event during which thousands of tenant-farmers were forcibly evicted from their ancestral homelands so that the cash-strapped landlords could treble their rents by bringing in sheep to take their place. The heartfelt writing is top-notch and Craig includes some fascinating interviews ...

Bridge to Terabithia: The Official Movie Companion (Offical Movie Companion)

David Paterson

HarperEntertainment, 2007

Great little book on movie
You want to be on the "in" to knowing about all things Terabithia? Well, be sure to get this book. Make sure you have read the book, "Bridge to Terabithia" as talking about events which take place both in the book and in the movie will spoil what happens if one is already not familiar with the book. The pages are filled with photographs, both of filming and behind the scenes. This book is nicely ...

A Long Walk on the Isle of Skye

3 reviews
David Paterson

Polygon, 2006

I loved it...
All my travel adventures start with a good book. This is definitely The Book for the Isle of Skye. I don't think you have to physically follow David Paterson's 8-day-long path from Armadale (south) to Duntulm (north) to come away with a delicious sense of having been there. The photographs are stunning. But unlike cheesy tourist photography books, A Long Walk is beautifully written, engaging, ...

The Scottish Electorate: The 1997 General Election and Beyond
David McCrone, Lindsay Paterson, ...

St. Martin's Press, 1999

This text discusses the outcome of the 1997 general election in Scotland and the likely future shape of Scotland's politics. It sets the 1997 Scottish result in a comparative context with the rest of Britain, and in a context of changing political attitudes and behaviour since the 1970s. The 1997 General Election ranks alongside 1945 and 1979 as a turning point in the post war United Kingdom. The overwhelming endorsement of a Scottish Parliament ...
