Are Labour values being realised within the Union?
How much really divides Yes campaigners from Labour voters?
Why Not? Scotland, Labour and Independence is a passionate and often personal appeal to Labour voters (and other progressive Scots) to consider the social, economic and political gains that could be won with Scottish self-government. Bringing together a range of diverse voices some from within the Labour Party, some from within the SNP, some from the non-aligned Left it presents the social justice case for a Yes vote and argues that independence offers the clearest route forward for socialist and centre-left Scotland.
Urgent, original and provocative, Why Not? is a vital contribution to the independence debate and essential reading for all Scots.

In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence.
