Fifteen psychologists, twelve secondary schools, four
expulsions, four rehabs, two house-arrests and innumerable
arguments... the cast and plot line for a season's worth of Law and
Order? No. This was the real-life drama of Heather Stone's
adolescence. Now in college, Heather, the once rebellious teen, has
sat down with her father to pen an insider's guide for parents and
teens alike.
Charles and Heather don't offer Cleaver family ideals or promise
Brady Bunch thirty-minute solutions. They, instead, share the
realities of their 6-year nightmare, in the hopes of fostering hope
for the millions of families trying to survive the years from
thirteen to eighteen. Replete with faith, honesty, and
practicality, it offers readers nine practical lessons and provides
a compass for even the worst tempests of teen rebellion.
This edited collection provides an inter- and intra-disciplinary
discussion of the critical role context plays in how and when
individuals and groups remember the past. International
contributors integrate key research from a range of disciplines,
including social and cognitive psychology, discursive psychology,
philosophy/philosophical psychology and cognitive linguistics, to
increase awareness of the central role that cultural, social and
technological contexts play in determining individual and
collective recollections at multiple, yet interconnected, levels of
human experience. Divided into three parts, cognitive and
psychological perspectives, social and cultural perspectives, and
cognitive linguistics and philosophical perspectives, Stone and
Bietti present a breadth of research on memory in context. Topics
covered include: the construction of self-identity in memory
flashbulb memories scaffolding memory the cultural psychology of
remembering social aspects of memory the mnemonic consequences of
silence emotion and memory eyewitness identification multimodal
communication and collective remembering. Contextualizing Human
Memory allows researchers to understand the variety of work
undertaken in related fields, and to appreciate the importance of
context in understanding when, how and what is remembered at any
given recollection. The book will appeal to researchers, academics
and postgraduate students in the fields of cognitive and social
psychology, as well as those in related disciplines interested in
learning more about the advancing field of memory studies.

Trouble stirs in the kingdom of Happyland when rumors of the dead
rising from their graves strike terror into the hearts of every
fairy tale character present. When a little girl suffers a terrible
accident on the way to visit her grandmother, she is mysteriously
granted a host of dangerous powers, and the king asks for her aid
in exterminating the undead menace and bringing the mastermind of
the virus to justice. But is there more to the dark wizard's plan
than meets the eye?
What happens after you die? For a girl named Christine, the answer
is Purgatory - a place much like a video game. On her search for
answers, she enrolls at the Purgatory High School for Demon
Hunters, where her and dozens of other teenagers are given a
variety of demon-slaying powers. The series begins with this
explosive issue, and the bonds between the members of the Magenta
Serpent team begin to form. But are the powers they are given
enough to face the growing demon threat, and can the faculty
members of this strange school be trusted?
