For ease of use and practicality Straightforward Second Edition is structured to provide one lesson per double-page spread (A/B/C/D), lasting around 90 minutes. All lessons are interlinked to promote better and more memorable learning, but the is the flexibility to pick out certain key sections to focus on certain language points. GRAMMAR — Clear and uncomplicated grammar explanations present new grammar elements. Students are always supported by the Language Reference pages at the back of their book allowing them to further work on a difficult area and understand the language. VOCABULARY — Difficult and out of context words from the text are presented in the glossary so students are not distracted by these lexical hurdles. READING — Texts are accessible for the relevant level, realistic and from a variety of different sources/contexts. FUNCTIONAL LANGUAGE — Students are not expected to learn in a vacuum and their interests and curiosities are met with 'Did you know' sections. CEF/SELF ASSESSMENT — Each unit culminates in a self assessment box so students can check and monitor their own progress and become more independent learners. The checklist is a selection of clear 'can-do' statements and therefore links to the CEF and portfolio elements of the course. FUNCTIONAL LANGUAGE — This section helps students to deal with common, every-day situations in an English-speaking environment — what we might think of as survival language.

Come on a journey sideways through time, and lose yourself in a world both deeply familiar and wondrously strange. In 1681, Sir Isaac Newton turns his restless mind to the ancient art of alchemy, and successfully unleashes Philosopher's Mercury, the key to manipulating the four elements. Powerful kings will battle to control it, till London itself is threatened with obliteration by a hellish device — unless a pair of unlikely geniuses can defuse it in time. This is a fantasy woven from the stuff of history, an enthralling quest whose outcome may raise humanity to unparalleled heights... or bring down the curtain of endless night.

A haunting tale of a woman revisiting her past, with shattering consequences Isabel, Owen, and Julia were childhood friends. But when they were 15, Julia disappeared without a trace — an event that had a devastating impact on the others. Years later, Isabel returns to her hometown in the north of England for Owen's funeral. She hadn't seen him since they recklessly burned down the local supermarket together; he was sent to prison and she, just shy of her 18th birthday, to a young offenders' center. Isabel suspects that Owen was responsible for Julia's murder, and she's hoping finally to find some kind of resolution. Feeling cut off from her husband and child in Turkey, and awash with unexpected memories, Isabel ventures further into the murky depths of her past. But nothing is as it seems — either past or present — and as Isabel's world unravels we finally realize the stunning, shattering truth.

The temperature is over 100. The rapids are some of the largest in North America. Water levels are rising. And JT Maroney, veteran river guide, is leading his 125th trip down the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon. For the next two weeks, his 13 passengers — strangers, mostly — will paddle, row, swim, ride the rapids, eat gourmet meals, sleep under the stars, and learn a lot about geology. They'll learn a lot about each other, too — perhaps more than they want to know. Allegiances form, and likewise dissolve, in the course of an afternoon. JT's decision on the first day to adopt a stray dog further complicates the group dynamics, leading to a series of fateful mishaps, one of which will alter the course of many lives.

Between the end of the nineteenth century and the Second World War, Macmillan published a much-loved and extremely successful series of books under the title of Highways and Byways. In them, the authors took readers on a delightful guided tour of the country, county by county, pointing out places of interest, key historical events and local lore and legend. Now, Macmillan is reissuing — in one beautifully designed volume — a selection of those highways and byways, which affords contemporary readers both a charming period piece and a wonderful glimpse of the very best of Britain.
