A report  by Dr Seimon Brooks, Associate Professor at Swansea University's School of Management.  Following Academi Hywel Teifi's Swansea University grant from the Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol, Dr Simon Brooks was commissioned to produce a report on taxation policies and planning for second homes in Wales and Cornwall.

Araith a draddodwyd gan yr athronydd J. R. Jones yn Eisteddfod y Barri 1968 yn trafod y Cymry Cymraeg fel pobl a'u hawydd i oroesi.

Cyfrifir Ludwig Wittgenstein gan lawer yn athrylith hynotaf yr ugeinfed ganrif mewn athroniaeth. Y mae hefyd yn unigryw yn ei faes gan iddo greu nid un athroniaeth ond dwy, y ddwy yn wreiddiol, dylanwadol a gwrthgyferbyniol. Ceisir yn y gyfrol hon esbonio mewn iaith seml ei ddau safbwynt sydd i'w gweld yn Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus ac yn yr Ymchwiliadau Athronyddol.

Lenin oedd y gwleidydd cyntaf mewn unrhyw wlad i greu chwyldro ar sail egwyddorion Karl Marx. Ai llwyddiant ai methiant fu'r hyn a gyflawnodd ef rhwng 1917 a'i farw ym 1924? Cyn y gellir gosod llinyn mesur ar yr hyn a wnaeth, y mae angen deall yr amgylchiadau y digwyddodd y Chwyldro Comiwnyddol ynddynt, amgylchiadau a oedd yn bur wahanol i'r rhai lle disgwyliasai Marx weld gweithredu ei syniadau. Disgrifir yn y gyfrol hon gyflwr pethau yn Rwsia cyn y Chwyldro, gan amlinellu'n gryno ddatblygiad y gymdeithas a'i sefydliadau. Eir ymlaen i roi braslun o yrfa gyffrous Lenin ac olrheinir rhediad ei syniadau wrth iddo ymlafnio i droi dadansoddiad Marx yn rhaglen o weithredu ymarferol.
