Dolls' Houses have fascinated children and adults for centuries. This delightful book, revised and now presented in hardback with a new foreword by artist Rachel Whiteread, explores the astonishing skill and craftsmanship required to create these miniature homes.

Originating from the Latin for deity or goddess, our concept of what a 'diva' might be - or should be - has evolved in richness and complexity. Delving into public and private personas of performers from Sarah Bernhardt to Nina Simone and Rihanna this book looks at what it has meant to be a diva, and what unites and defines these unique artists.
