Books by Mike King

Examines the policing, and broader political repression, of the Occupy Oakland movement during the fall of 2011 through the spring of 2012. Mike King's active and daily participation in that movement, from its inception through its demise, provides a unique insider perspective to illustrate how the Oakland police and city administrators lost the ability to effectively control the movement.

This book contains much material seen for the first time; with colour images from both existing and new sources. With a huge variety of photographs, from pre-grouping stock that survived into the 1950s and 1960s to Southern built vehicles, all the photographs are in colour, and nearly all were taken to show the actual vehicle. Milk tanks feature in detail for the first time as well as horse boxes, ballast wagons and even a locomotive tender still lettered ''Southern''. Thought you knew everything there was about Southern rolling stock? Then stand by to be amazed...!''

Combining commercial success with philanthropy and social activism, Quakernomics offers a compelling model for corporate social responsibility in the modern world. Mike King explores the ethical capitalism of Quaker enterprises from the eighteenth to the twentieth centuries, testing this theory against those of prominent economists. With a foreword by Sir Adrian Cadbury, this book proves that the Quaker practice of total capitalism is not a historically remote nicety but an immediately relevant guide for todays global economy.
