KEY BENEFIT: This sixth edition of the best-selling Learning the
Art of Helping: Building Blocks and Techniques emphasizes the
techniques and skills necessary to be effective in the art of
helping, from basic building blocks to advanced therapeutic
techniques. The text is practical, innovative, and focused on the
relationship between helper and client. The author incorporates the
latest research on effective treatments, while offering an
integrative perspective. The author's conversational tone is
appealing to students, yet the book is carefully referenced for
instructors. The goal is to make beginning helpers become
"reflective practitioners." "Stop and Reflect" sections, exercises,
homework, class discussion topics, and Journal Starters support
this approach. The sixth edition includes new sections highlighting
issues of culture in research, challenges related to gender
differences, and helping skills specific to children. KEY TOPICS:

The face of entertainment has changed radically over the last
decade--and dangerously so. Stars like Britney, Paris, Lindsay, Amy
Winehouse--and their media enablers--have altered what we consider
"normal" behavior. According to addiction specialist Dr. Drew
Pinsky and business and entertainment expert Dr. S. Mark Young, a
high proportion of celebrities suffer from traits associated with
clinical narcissism--vanity, exhibitionism, entitlement,
exploitativeness--and the rest of us, especially young people, are
mirroring what we witness nightly on our TV and computer
screens.
A provocative, eye-opening study, The Mirror Effect sounds a
timely warning, raising important questions about our changing
culture--and provides insights for parents, young people, and
anyone who wonders what the cult of celebrity is really doing to
America.
Mark Yonge had, for many years, wanted to write a book about
railway projects that were started but never completed. The
physical evidence of these works throughout England although
rapidly vanishing, can still be seen in places to this day. The
reader can view several examples which include viaducts,
earthworks, bridges, partially completed tunnels, an abandoned
tunnel boring machine and the beginnings of a major London airport.
Behind all these tales are stories of intrigue, manipulation,
interference by the armed forces and sometimes great sadness
brought about by personal ambition and ruin. These remaining assets
are in the main, not protected by legislation and are thus at risk
of demolition at any time. It is to be hoped that this record of
their existence in the 2020s may go a little way towards recording
some of our more interesting and neglected features of railway
history for the benefit of future generations.
Advances in Marine Biology has always offered marine biologists
in-depth and up-to-date reviews on a variety of topics. As well as
many volumes that provide a selection of important topics, the
series also includes thematic volumes that examine a particular
field in detail. Two recent thematic volumes, one on ocean
biogeography and another on the biology of calanoid copepods,
provide comprehensive reviews of these topics and include
previously unpublished data.
This volume contains two detailed reviews. The first discusses the
population genetics of bathyal and abyssal organisms. The second
covers growth performance and mortality in aquatic macrobenthic
invertebrates.
Giannozzo Manetti (1396-1459) was an Italian diplomat and a
celebrated humanist orator and scholar of the early Renaissance.
Son of a wealthy Florentine merchant, he turned away from a
commercial career to take up scholarship under the guidance of the
great civic humanist, Leonardo Bruni. Like Bruni he mastered both
classical Latin and Greek, but, unusually, added to his linguistic
armory a command of Biblical Hebrew as well. He used his knowledge
of Hebrew to make a fresh translation of the Psalms into humanist
Latin, a work that implicitly challenged the canonical Vulgate of
St. Jerome. His Apologeticus (1455-59) in five books was a defense
of the study of Hebrew and of the need for a new translation. As
such, it constituted the most extensive treatise on the art of
translation of the Renaissance. This ITRL edition contains the
first complete translation of the work into English.
