Book Description
An award-winning cookbook celebrating the author’s Indian heritage with simple, healthy recipes for all occasions—in a beautifully illustrated new edition. Winner of the Jeremy Round Award for Best First Book and shortlisted for Best Book at the Glenfiddich Awards, this fully revised and redesigned edition of Cooking with Mummyji features newly commissioned photography and more than 100 scintillating, simple, healthy recipes that celebrate Vicky Bhogal’s Indian roots. These exciting recipes come from Bhogal’s own family and friends: traditional Indian cooking using accessible ingredients. As Vicky says, “Our home food is much simpler than the food you find in Indian restaurants. We use very few spices. The same ingredients are generally used for everything but, like musical notes, can be combined in many different ways to create beautiful melodies.” A treasure of culinary delights, this is “an enchanting book, suffused with charm, wit and the kind of fresh, light recipes that can dazzle a dinner party or make a perfect supper for one” (Red Magazine). “Written with openness and delight in its subject . . . intelligent and fascinating.” —The Guardian “A tribute to the Sikh community living in Britain, Vicky Bhogal’s book brings favourite family dishes to the table in much the same way as they would be in rural Punjab.” —Time Out London

Ordinary Lives

Author: Ben Highmore
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136905235
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 461

Book Description
This new study from Ben Highmore looks at the seemingly banal world of objects, work, daily media, and food, and finds there a scintillating array of passionate experience. Through a series of case studies, and building on his previous work on the everyday, Highmore examines our relationship to familiar objects (a favourite chair), repetitive work (housework, typing), media (distracted television viewing and radio listening) and food (specifically the food of multicultural Britain). A chair allows him to consider the history of flat-pack furniture as well as the lively presence of inorganic ‘stuff’ in our daily lives. Distracted television watching and radio listening becomes one of the preconditions for experiencing wonder through the media. Ordinary Lives links the concrete study of routine existence to theoretical reflection on everyday life. The book discusses philosophers such as Jacques Rancière, William James and David Hume and combines them with autobiographical testimonies, historical research and the analysis of popular culture to investigate the minutiae of day-to-day life. Highmore argues that aesthetic experience is embedded in the mundane sensory world of everyday life. He asks the reader to reconsider the negative associations of habit and routine, focusing specifically on the intrinsic ambiguity of habit (habit, we find out, is both rigid and adaptive). Rather than ask ‘what does everyday life mean?’ this book asks ‘what does everyday life feel like and how do our sensual, emotional and temporal experiences interconnect and intersect?’ Ordinary Lives is an accessible, animated and engaging book that is ideally suited to both students and researchers working in cultural studies, media and communication and sociology.

Migrant City

Author: Panikos Panayi
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300252145
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 360

Book Description
The first history of London to show how immigrants have built, shaped and made a great success of the capital city London is now a global financial and multicultural hub in which over three hundred languages are spoken. But the history of London has always been a history of immigration. Panikos Panayi explores the rich and vibrant story of London– from its founding two millennia ago by Roman invaders, to Jewish and German immigrants in the Victorian period, to the Windrush generation invited from Caribbean countries in the twentieth century. Panayi shows how migration has been fundamental to London’s economic, social, political and cultural development.“br/> Migrant City sheds light on the various ways in which newcomers have shaped London life, acting as cheap labour, contributing to the success of its financial sector, its curry houses, and its football clubs. London’s economy has long been driven by migrants, from earlier continental financiers and more recent European Union citizens. Without immigration, fueled by globalization, Panayi argues, London would not have become the world city it is today.
