Includes 'A Calendar of the Pipe Rolls of the Reign of Richard I for Buckinghamshire and Bedfordshire 1189-1199', by G. Herbert Fowler and Michael W. Hughes. The calendar in English is preceded by an introduction which explains what the roll contains and how it has been calendared and analyses some of the information in the pipe rolls. It is followed by copious notes and a fold-out map containing a reconstruction of the hundreds of Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire at the time of Richard I. The authors are careful to indicate that the hundred boundaries are approximations based on later parish boundaries and that the locations shown for vills are similarly only probable.

One Hundred Pages for the Future: Reflections of the President of the Club of Rome aims to show the nature and depth of human crisis and the dangers that threaten the survival of man as a species if the downward global trends are not stopped and reversed. The book first underscores the end of self-regulating mechanisms, age of great revolutions, and growth of population. The text then elaborates on the syndromes of decline, including devastation of nature, increasing threats on security, economic problems, and the ambiguity and ambivalence of science. The manuscript takes a look at the paths to change, giving importance to the contributions of The Club of Rome in defining the problems that imperil human future. The text also highlights the need to adopt policies and strategies that can effectively respond to the global interests of humankind, as well as assuring the governability of the human system. The book is a vital reference for readers interested in studying human crisis and the dangers posed to mankind in the midst of increasingly destructive global trends.
