One Of The Largest Brewing Industry
1,239 wordsThe purpose of this investigation is to establish whether the acquisition of Bass by Interbrew should be allowed. There will be many elements to look at in order to reach a final conclusion but in the first light, it seems that the takeover is a good idea.

Turn Of The Century Robinson Crusoe

Sid Smiths debut novel at the age of 52, Something Like A House, is set during Chinas cultural revolution, and is praised by the judges for its ring of absolute truth proving that several months in the British Library poring over Taoist tracts and accounts of peasant life can be just as ...
