Nerd gangstas, weed, and The Boss combine in a darkly comedic story of resurrecting shattered dreams within a bureaucratic circus. Fight Club meets a Half-Baked Big Bang Theory with a CSI twist in an Office Space, but only cake gets punched. Yes, that’s right, cake.Pharmers is a fictional story written for the newly found literary genre of ‘dark nerd-comedy’. Meet Deymann, a down and out medicinal scientist slaving away in corporate America. He feels trapped in a godless machine, toiling for the Boss and a thick-witted supervisor, a man he calls Dummy-Bear (not to his face, but he probably wouldn’t get it anyway). After surviving the most embarrassing Piñata debacle in human history, Deymann meets a secret white-collar group of misfits knows as the Pharmers, who help him break out of his rut with some corporate espionage and herbal chemistry experimentation. What’s that smoke and funny odor coming from the incinerator? Did I hear laughter in there? Will you find out before the Boss?

Part of the GREAT PHILOSOPHERS series.John Locke 1632-1704What Newton did for physics in the seventeenth century, Locke did for philosophy. The revolution wrought by these two giants established the intellectual underpinnings of the modern world.Yet out own age has called their contributions into question. While Newton''s universe has come to seem unduly mechanistic, Locke has been out of favour for his wordy rhetoric, the apparent imprecision of his thought and the perceived irrelevance of his once-radical empiricism.This fascinating guide restores an underrated thinker to his rightful place at the very centre of modern philosophical enquiry. Basing his exposition upon a resourceful re-reading of An Essay concerning Human Understanding, Michael Ayers explains the historical significance of Locke''s philosophical project, and its continuing capacity to challenge and compel.

Kinetic is Michael Ayres' third collection. It displays a distinct evolution from the poetry of its predecessor, the epic and turbulent a.m. Embodied largely in short, lyrical poems, language in Kinetic shimmers with images of love and of lovers caught up in a world of intensifying change and restless motion. Michael Ayres was born in Nottingham in 1958, and has lived in Dorset, Leicestershire and Cleveland. He gained a degree in English from the University of Hull in 1982, and has lived in Cambridge since 1986. By day, Michael Ayres is a graphic designer.
