Over the centuries, theological studies have grappled with the
comprehension of Truth and Goodness. However, theology, unlike
philosophy, has neglected serious scrutiny of the study of Beauty
or Aesthetics. Jo Ann Davidson's Toward a Theology of Beauty
investigates this omission. Why should aesthetic dimensions be
ignored in theology's quest for ultimate truth? Davidson
convincingly states that these would contribute to the ongoing
search for a more comprehensive perception of the divine. This book
contends that theology is incomplete and impoverished without
fundamental deliberations within aesthetic values. A survey of the
literature up to the present currently reveals that theological
studies, by and large, do not yet realize the extent to which it
might be enriched by the biblical aesthetic. God's own nature, His
Word in both Testaments including narratives, poetry, literary
structures, and vocabulary are all embedded in aesthetic
expressions. A systematic study of the biblical aesthetic is one
that calls for attention and this book offers a solid and
thought-provoking beginning.

This book includes a short, easy-to-read theoretical background to
ASD focusing on the underlying impairments and their impact on
sensory processing, motor development, play, language and
communication skills, social skills, emotional development and
behaviour for the relevant age group. Each developmental area is
intrinsically linked and progress in one aspect of development is
dependent on progress in another so a multi-disciplinary approach
is essential. All the books examine the role of various individual
professionals while emphasising the need to develop a
multi-disciplinary approach combining their areas of expertise. The
book also describes a multi-disciplinary approach to groupwork
providing practical advice and photocopiable resources to enable
readers to: assess individual needs; organise groups (including
group members, venue and transport); set individual group targets;
plan group sessions (examples of activities for each developmental
area are provided); and, evaluate progress. It offers ideas for
developing good teamwork, including peer review, and working
towards a trans-disciplinary approach where professionals can step
into each others' roles where appropriate. This title features
256pp, A4, and it is wire-o-bound. It is suitable for children of
ages 11-16.
"Groupwork for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: Ages 3-5" is
the first of three books promoting a multidisciplinary approach to
working with children on the autism spectrum. The author team of
speech & language therapists and occupational therapists have
used their experience of working together in this way to create a
practical resource for professionals working with children with ASD
in small groups. The book aims to develop the children's skills in
seven key areas of development: Communication & language;
Socialisation; Play; Sensory; Motor; Behaviour; and, Emotional.
Case studies, working examples, photocopiable checklists,
assessment forms and session sheets are provided for group
facilitators to: assess individual needs; set individual targets;
create personalised programmes; plan & run group sessions;
evaluate progress; and, carry out peer reviews. Forty photocopiable
activities, differentiated according to the developmental area
being targeted as well as the developmental level of the child, are
also included. "Groupwork for Children with Autism Spectrum
Disorder: Ages 3-5" provides an invaluable resource for speech
& language therapists, occupational therapists,
physiotherapists, play therapists, family therapists, teachers,
support staff and all those working to develop the children's
skills in small groups. Parents and carers are actively encouraged
to participate in groupwork with their child. 'I enjoyed joining in
the group and being part of my child's therapy'.

their sanity in the midst of a dysfunctional relationship. Laugh,
cry and learn as Maggie and Ann struggle to keep intact their train

think you know how this turns out.) Ann and Maggie lose touch with
reality soon after pledging their respective I dos, traveling
further and further into a life of denial and abuse. Merely a silly
fable or a much-needed wake-up call, Chicken Nachos is both
entertaining and sobering. And we are enlightened as to what really
happens when needy marries control. Embark with Ann and Maggie on
their journey to find themselves.
