Richard Grant is a Chief Constable in an English County Police Force. He is married with two children and, after a very successful career, he dreams of the good times to come, when he retires. His dreams are shattered when his wife and family are killed and he finally leaves the Police Service to go into private security. He is hounded by an al-Qaeda terrorist who has vowed to kill him. This terrorist plans and executes an atrocity greater than that of the World Trade Centre, for, in one fell swoop, he kills all the members of the 27 European Governments, plus the Government of Turkey and all the European ministers and deputies. Owing to Richard Grants swift action and superb planning, the final plan for World domination by the Islamists is thwarted and the terrorist organisation defeated, leaving Richard Grant with the unenviable task of rebuilding Europe.
Physical punishment at schools in Iran continued until being banned by the Ministry of Education in September 1960. The author spent four years at “Safa” school in the north area of Tehran, in Iran from 1953 to 1957. In this book he recalls the social and educational conditions of those years, the morale and status of students and the teachers’ way of thinking. He also discusses the prevailing culture of physical punishments and the hardships the students endured along with their entertainments, recreations and access to academic facilities. He wants to show what devastating effects beatings and physical punishments have on children and what irreparable and lasting impacts they leave on the soul of children in the form of anxiety, panic and permanent fear. The pain of being beaten and punished was not just for the students, but the ones who did it also suffered from the memory of their actions in the course of time. Some regretted their mistakes and oppressions. There were some teachers among them who were sensitive by nature and were aware that physical punishment was not right. However, the social structure of that time required the beatings.
