What Afro-Cuban Ritual Can Tell Us about Scientific Practice and Vice Versa

Thinking with Ngangas

Make no mistake, a criminal trial is not about finding the truth, it is only ever about the question of proof. Babes in the Wood highlights the painstaking and frustrating, slow and, on occasion, ponderous route to achieving the goals of both proof and truth. It is an excellent observation of professionalism and downright persistence, working within the strict framework of relatively new legislation, achieving the successful prosecution of one of Britain’s most dangerous, paedophilic psychopaths. A triumph, this book is not just a testament to the police officers, but also to the parents and families of the victims, who had not only to endure so many years of distress and monumental grief, but also the lingering distrust and antipathy from their own community and neighbours, which thankfully was, eventually dismissed. The authenticity of this book, the honesty, professionalism and persistent investigation displayed, the array of characters, frustrations and procedures – all these are a shining example of both the truth and accuracy of an investigation, leading to one of the most dramatic re-trials seen within the United Kingdom to date. Babes in the Wood should be required reading for all budding detectives.

"Brilliantly suspensefulThe General&rsquo;s Cook offers a swift ride in the company of fascinating characters. Readers will never again see the first president in the same way, nor should they."&mdash;Elizabeth Cobbs, The Hamilton Affair "The General&#39;s Cook is redolent with savory details. Ganeshram brings Hercules, President Washington&#39;s cook, to mouth-watering life! This novel casts new valuable insight on the complicated legacy of our founding father and the institution of slavery, while showcasing the heartbreaking choices Hercules is forced to make. " &mdash;Michaela MacColl, bestselling author of Prisoners in the Palace  "A skillfully observed historical fiction debut."&#160;&mdash;Library Journal "A talented master chef yet at the same time the slave of an exacting master, the shadowy and intriguing figure of the historical Hercules, George Washington&#39;s cook, springs to life in this compelling fictional portrait. In The General&#39;s Cook, Hercules is a complicated, forceful, gentle man whose passions reside in the exquisite dishes he produces for the first President of the young American republic and with his beautiful biracial lover who is passing for white. A chef and award-winning journalist of the culinary arts, Ramin Ganeshram offers us a deeply-researched story of a life erased from history, a man whose last name is not mentioned in the record books. As Hercules ushers the young people in his kitchen out of slavery&rsquo;s shackles, you&rsquo;ll find yourself cheering for him to throw down his chef&rsquo;s hat and make his own bid for freedom."&mdash;Minrose Gwin, award-winning author of Promise &ldquo;This book is the true juxtaposition of food and history, taking us back to the days of George Washington and into the world of his chef, a slave named Hercules. Told with vivid and delicious description about a little-known part of our American history, The General&rsquo;s Cook is a book that food lovers really should not miss.&rdquo; &mdash;Crystal King, author of Feast of Sorrow &ldquo;The General&rsquo;s Cook intriguingly and vividly brings to life Hercules&mdash;President George Washington&rsquo;s enslaved African American cook, and a truly fascinating figure in early U.S. history. Ganeshram&rsquo;s thorough research and extensive culinary knowledge adds a depth to Hercules&rsquo;s biography that other historical accounts lack. You&rsquo;ll definitely hunger for more!&rdquo; &mdash;Adrian Miller, author of Soul Food: The Surprising Story of an American Cuisine and&#160;The President&rsquo;s Kitchen Cabinet: The Story of the African Americans Who Have Fed Our First Families, from the Washingtons to the Obamas  &ldquo;The General&rsquo;s Cook introduces the reader to a complex mix of people living in and surviving places that have rarely been described with such accuracy; kitchens, urban market places and back alleys, the rural plantation slave quarters and the elite dining rooms of an America predicated on and ruled by slavery.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Dr. Leni Sorensen, Retired African American research historian, Thomas Jefferson&rsquo;s Monticello &#160;
