Dr. Cook has compiled a list of articles that will be highly
relevant to practicing pediatricians because he organized the issue
on issues that are most commonly seen, those that may have
confusing assessment and management recommendations, and those that
may have some change or advancement in treatment. The issue is
focused on 4 major sections: the hip, sports, office pediatric
orthopedics, and advances in pediatric orthopedics. Readers will
leave with a thorough update on the most common orthopedic clinical
challenges that face them in their practice.
Spirituality, Theology and Mental Health provides reflections from
leading international scholars and practitioners in theology,
anthropology, philosophy and psychiatry as to the nature of
spirituality and its relevance to constructions of mental disorder
and mental healthcare. Key issues are explored in depth, including
the nature of spirituality and recent debates concerning its
importance in contemporary psychiatric practice, relationship
between demons and wellbeing in ancient religious texts and
contemporary practice, religious conversion, and the nature and
importance of myth and theology in shaping human self
understanding. These are used as a basis for exploring some of the
overarching intellectual and practical issues that arise when
different disciplines engage together with an attempt to better
understand the relationship between spirituality and mental health
and translate their findings into mental healthcare practice.

This is the published version of Christopher Cook's celebrated play
based on Washington Irving's haunting tale Available for the first
time, this handsomely bound edition of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
presents all the splendor and mystery of Washington Irving's
lyrical prose in dramatic form. Beautifully adapted by
award-winning playwright, Christopher Cook, this stage version
brings to life the eccentric characters and pastoral landscapes of
Irving's timeless masterpiece. In the peaceful little hamlet of
Sleepy Hollow, all is not as it appears. For behind its genteel
facade lies a secret that has long loomed over the bucolic
community since the Revolutionary War. The year is 1795. Our story
revolves around Christian souls who share cautionary tales of
ghosts and goblins, a favorite being that of a Hessian soldier who
was beheaded by cannon fire. A stranger's arrival presages unusual
events when Ichabod Crane, a journeyman schoolmaster, takes up
residence in the quaint village. Fate plays a dark role as his
relations with Katrina, heiress apparent to the Van Tassel fortune,
disintegrate. Courted by another suitor, the rough-edged Brom
Bones, Katrina rebuffs the teacher's advances, opting instead for
his formidable rival. Enter the infamous headless horseman,
wielding a razor-sharp scythe in one hand and a pumpkin in the
other. Galloping wildly through brush and bramble, the goblin tears
through the woodlands on a quest of revenge. An unforeseen
encounter between Crane and horseman ultimately results in the
pedagogue's mysterious disappearance. With a host of Irvian
characters as colorful as they are authentic, and a veritable
tapestry of words painted in rich images, magic and suspense abound
in this tale of dark humor and gothic horror. This play and its
subsequent productions is certain to secure Cook's theatrical
treatment as a bona fide Halloween classic in the annals of the
American stage
