New Testament Apocrypha and Old Testament Apocrypha - why not all canoninical?

I heard a reading from Ecclesiasticus once at the Church of England. Why are these books not accepted as genuine scripture by many? Why do some Catholics accept 1 Esdras? Why are these books not included in the bible? E.g. Susanna, 1 Baruch etc. What are the New Testament apocrypha?
