By joining ordinary people in these strange and wonderful distillations of their culture and beliefs, he hopes to gain a revelatory insight into how the world thinks and feels. Stefan goes on a wild emotional and spiritual rollercoaster ride, starting with a teenage girl's bizarre coming-of-age ceremony and ending with the Day of the Dead, a cacophonous cross-cultural festival of the senses during which Mexicans truly believe that their loved ones come back from the dead for three days every year to spend the day with them.

Summary
Cultural heritage and contemporary arts benefit from being showcased in events. Arts-related events are each unique in reflecting local culture; they may be therefore spontaneous (street art and so on) or planned (i.e. studio tours or arts festivals).The Arts and Events explores the nature and complexity of managing arts events and fills a significant gap in the available literature.

Summary
It is perhaps timely that this special edition of Gastronomy appears now. In recent years many issues have come further to public conscience in relation to our consumption of food and drink across the world. Our use and abuse of our resources have hit headlines around the world and at last there is perhaps the stirrings of unitary effort to try and feed not only ourselves but concerted effort to feed our neighbours in a sustainable manner. Consider though, food injustices for they are many.We have witnessed nations that are unable to feed themselves, we have heard statistics compare previously unheard of levels of obesity with similar numbers who starve or do not have enough food. We live in a time of plenty for some whom through bureaucratic legislation are forced to discard perfectly good fresh food - the north sea common policies of ?throwing back? fish because, for various reasons, it should not have been caught is one example of madness that surely our descendants will look back upon with incredulity. Our supermarkets stock out of season foodstuffs on a daily basis that costs countless thousands of food miles annually yet the paradox is that we have now engineered societies in developing nations who are dependant upon that business and income. Vast food producing companies have developed such complex food supply chain systems that is difficult to sometimes know the true origin of what we put into our stomachs. There are many others that could be listed but this journal intends to inspire and highlight hope and positive endeavours.
