Use these system-of-care concepts to better serve children with serious emotional problems and their families Providing services to children with emotional problems and their families continues to be a major challenge for social workers, family therapists, child mental health advocates, and psychologists in the new century. This valuable book addresses that challenge, detailing theory, principles, and application issues from the vantage points of both consumers and service providers. System-of-care values and practices were developed to address these concerns and meet the needs of these children and families, who tend to receive either no services at all or services that are far too restrictive, at a large cost to the organization providing the services.Child Mental Health: Exploring Systems of Care in the New Millennium identifies salient issues and offers suggestions for addressing the complexities of providing services for these troubled families. It also provides hope and encouragement for family members and professionals by identifying roles and practices that are effective in building collaborative community-based services.This book takes an incisive look at: the benefits and difficulties of partnering between practitioners and families the need for and benefits of partnering between practitioners of various disciplines within the system of care a working model of a wraparound process (the hallmark of the system of care) barriers that prevent effective wraparound services and what causes them the need to help social workers learn parent partnering skills the roles that families can play in the system of care the need for specialized training so that practitioners can learn to assess, understand, and integrate a family's spiritual beliefs into the system of care the development of an interdisciplinary, collaborative practice course at East Carolina University experiential training and shared-classroom experiences for studentsChild Mental Health: Exploring Systems of Care in the New Millennium is a tool that will aid practitioners and consumers alike as they shift their point of view from the provider-as-expert paradigm to one of building partnerships.

Words matter in terrorism research. Not only do they describe reality, but they actively take part in the construction of the world as we see, talk, hear, imagine and ultimately react to it. "The Tabloid Terrorist" introduces a constructivist approach to the study of terrorism by examining the discursive constitution of the terrorist in tabloid newspapers. It shows how language in the media affects our perceptions of "terrorists" and how particular constructions of the "terrorist" automatically make certain counter-terrorism policies possible, logical and seemingly appropriate.

This volume is an engaging and provocative introduction to Feminist Biblical Studies. The authors draw upon their own social, cultural and religious backgrounds and experiences in reading the New Testament as feminists in the context of globalization. They provide intentional interpretations of biblical texts that cast gender, race, class and power relationships as issues inherent in both the content and context of scripture and its interpretation. The essays call into question feminist social engagement that does not extend beyond academic halls, churches and Christians, suggesting directions for future research and teaching in Feminist Biblical Studies.

Interest in morphology has undergone rapid growth over the past two decades and the area is now seen as crucially important, both in relation to other aspects of grammar and in relation to other disciplines. "The Handbook of Morphology" brings together articles by authors at the forefront of this research effort. The chapters deal with traditional issues such as inflection, derivation, compounding, productivity, and various aspects of the interface question, the relationship between morphology and phonology, syntax, and semantics. Other chapters offer briefer discussions of specific questions that have more recently become the focus of attention. A further set of chapters explores the role of morphology in a wider perspective: language change, psycholinguistics, and language acquisition.

The "Handbook" concludes with a set of morphological sketches of a typologically and genetically diverse set of languages, each illustrating one or more particularly interesting morphological traits.

It started when four scruffy Civil War re-enactors walk into a bar in Gettysburg, get into a fight with a local patron, then run outside and disappear. The police suspect the eye witnesses drank too much until one of them sees the men later that night and watches them disappear. A full scale investigation starts and soon instead of four soldiers there are thousands. Are they ghosts? Lost Souls? No one really knows. What they do know is that they're not ordinary ghosts because the bullets from their guns are real - and kill. This is a story about how a small community deals with an army of lost souls from the Civil War who are trying to find peace with each other as well as God. They are in search of forgiveness and a final blessing so that their souls are freed to rest in peace until they are called home. It's also about how love can blossom anywhere and how our friends and family are truly one of the most valuable things in our lives.

What is the perfect recipe for untold disaster? Add together the deplorable state of governance in the Developing World, the notoriously recurrent wars, the uncontrolled population increases (especially in countries whose economies are so rickety they cannot absorb the bombardment by humanity), and the inescapable natural calamities (volcanic eruptions, earth tremors, floods). This all sets the stage to beckon the most unscrupulous child trafficker who taps into this free "resource" the unprotected child and other vulnerable members of society. The innocent are exposed to all kinds of abuse through no fault of their own. A new dimension is taking shape in Africa and the continent is urbanizing abnormally fast. Cities are stunned frozen, unable to provide shelter, food, and other life necessities, leaving the weakest and the vulnerable homeless. This becomes the pool from which terrorists obtain potential assassins; body-part hunters obtain "free" human spare parts; and sex slavers join the melee. See all the chaos abound in Twisted Gift. The story travels from the jungles of Africa to Brazil; to Indonesia, India, Nepal, Lesotho and South Africa; to China, Belgium, Scotland, Germany, and finally to space, only to end up back on Earth with a BANG. An author of twelve books, Kenyi A. Spencer is a consultant for the World Bank in South Sudan and writes articles on economic matters for local newspapers and magazines.

Spencer, this book offers hair-brained fun for the whole gang. Who hasn't wanted to snip, snip, snip a stray wisp or two on a particularly bad hair day? The fact is Becky's mane issue has been bugging her all day. She can't do a thing with her hair. Her locks are loopy and wild; all she wants to do is tie them back and keep them out of her face.

So the following day, she makes a plan, which seems like a really, really good idea at the time, but all too soon proves to be a short, short, shortsighted strategy.

He would witness his mother's sexual immorality and drug abuse, and then she would be removed from his life. Her choices would adversely affect his young life and would send him into a pattern of fear, hopelessness, rebellion, and rage that would take him into a world of darkness he could not escape.

Life Changes provides those who are undergoing significant changes in their lives with an easy to follow road map of the normal ups and downs in the adjustment process. The seven stages of any transition process are described with clear advice about what to expect and, more importantly, what can be learned from each stage. Whatever the transition might be - the death of a loved one, a new job, a divorce or a marriage - the authors point out that people can either "go" through change or they can "grow" through change. It's up to the individual. The book also provides additional support for people making life changes, as the authors give advice on clarifying life purpose, protecting health, and maintaining balance during and after these major transitions.

Dr Mark Spencer is a forensic botanist - in other words, he helps police with cases where plants can unlock clues to solve crimes, from murder and rape to arson and burglary.

Murder Most Florid is an enthralling, first-person account that follows Mark's unconventional and unique career, one that takes him to woodlands, wasteland and roadsides, as well as police labs, to examine the botanical evidence of serious crimes. From unearthing a decomposing victims from brambles to dissecting the vegetation of a shallow grave, Mark's botanical knowledge can be crucial to securing a conviction.

More widely, this gripping book challenges our attitude to death and response to crime. It picks holes in the sensationalized depictions of policing we see on TV, and asks pertinent questions about public sector funding in the face of rising crime. Most importantly, it shows us how the ancient lessons of botanical science can still be front and centre in our modern, DNA-obsessed world.

Regardless of where you live or work, Silicon Valley undoubtedly touches your life; indeed, the tech industry's ubiquitous gadgets promise us more efficiency, convenience and fun. Yet despite Silicon Valley's utopian promise, more and more of us find ourselves addicted to our smartphones, made insecure by social media, and alarmed at how tech companies profit off our personal data. And while Silicon Valley's CEOs are often viewed as visionary prophets, their companies' policies have sown social discord around the world, led to mass evictions in the Bay Area, and perhaps enabled far-right nationalist parties in the Western World. A People's History of Silicon Valley follows the history of the people exploited, displaced, and made obsolete by the tech industry, from the colonization of the Bay Area to the present day. From the first Macintosh to the rise of social media, A People's History of Silicon Valley peels back the curtain on an industry that brands itself as visionary yet which may be chipping away at the foundations of society, including our democratic institutions.
