General help book
Title: Point It: Traveller's Language Kit
ISBN: 3980313026
Description: 'Point it' manages to be both useful and diverting. Crammed with photographs of everything you might ever wish to point at in an effort to make yourself understood in a foreign country, it is also very small and light, ideal for that already overweight rucksack you are taking on your travels. The book also makes interesting 'eye candy' and you could while away many hours on that cross-country train wondering in what situation you might need to simultaneously point at a sweet potato, a hypodermic and a large tree.

Those interested in photography and art might also find this book of interest. The book is a self contained and complete photography project that could serve as a starting point for your own work. Marvel at the still lifes and tableau that the photgrapher has laid out! Check out how fashions came and went when you see the cars, caravans, trousers and hairstyles!
