Designed for psychotherapists and counsellors in training, An
Introduction to the Therapeutic Frame clarifies the concept of the
frame - the way of working set out in the first meeting between
therapist and client. This Classic Edition of the book includes a
brand new introduction by the author. Anne Gray, an experienced
psychotherapist and teacher, uses lively and extensive case
material to show how the frame can both contain feelings and
further understanding within the therapeutic relationship. She
takes the reader through each stage of therapeutic work, from the
first meeting to the final contact, and looks at those aspects of
management that beginners often find difficult, such as fee
payment, letters and telephone calls, supervision and evaluation.
Her practical advice on how to handle these situations will be
invaluable to trainees as well as to those involved in their
training.
In recent years non-fiction history programmes have flourished on
television. This interdisciplinary study of history programming
identifies and examines different genres employed by producers and
tracks their commissioning, production, marketing and distribution
histories. With comparative references to other European nations
and North America, the authors focus on British history programming
over the last two decades and analyse the relationship between the
academy and media professionals. They outline and discuss
often-competing discourses about how to 'do' history and the
underlying assumptions about who watches history programmes.
History on Television considers recent changes in the media
landscape, which have affected to a great degree how history in
general, and whose history in particular, appears onscreen. Through
a number of case studies, using material from interviews by the
authors with academic and media professionals, the role of the
'professional' historian and that of media professionals -
commissioning editors and producer/directors - as mediators of
historical material and interpretations is analysed, and the ways
in which the 'logics of television' shape historical output are
outlined and discussed. Building on their analysis, Ann Gray and
Erin Bell ask if history on television fulfils its potential to be
a form of public history through offering, as it does, a range of
interpretations of the past to and originating from or including
those not based in the academy. Through consideration of the
representation, or absence, of the diversity of British identity -
gender, ethnicity and race, social status and regional identities -
the authors substantially extend the scope of existing scholarship
into history on television History on Television will be essential
reading for all those interested in the complex processes involved
in the representation of history on television.

The 1980s saw an explosion in the use of the domestic video cassette recorder (VCR), arguably the most significant new form of home entertainment technology since television. In Video Playtime Ann Gray investigates what women themselves felt about the VCR, both in terms of the ways these entertainment facilities were used within their households, and what kinds of programmes and films they themselves particularly enjoyed. Ann Gray draws heavily on verbatim quotes from discussions to provide a rich description of different types of household micro-cultures and to give readers more direct access to the women themselves and the ways in which they accounted for their own experience. Video Playtime addresses questions of domestic technology as well as those of taste and cultural preference, particularly in relation to class, addressing the dynamics of power within existing social and cultural relations and thereby setting the analysis within a much wider social context.

Ann Gray investigates what women themselves felt about the VCR,
both in terms of the ways these entertainment facilities were used
within their households, and what kinds of programmes and films
they themselves particularly enjoyed. The ages, social, economic
and family circumstances of the women differ, but almost all live
with a male partner, and the book draws heavily on verbatim quotes
from the discussions to provide a rich description of different
types of household micro-cultures and to give readers more direct
access to the women themselves and the ways in which they accounted
for their own experience. This particular method of research
revealed the importance of first exploring the social and cultural
context of a new piece of technology in order to understand its
significance. "Video Playtime" addresses questions of domestic
technology as well as those of taste and cultural preference,
particularly in relation to class, addressing the dynamics of power

This book deconstructs and analyzes the impact of education-based
trauma. Drawing on wisdom from the fields of education, psychology,
neuroscience, history, political science, social justice, and
philosophy, Gray connects the dots across different forms of
education trauma that can occur throughout a student's life: from
bullying and anxiety to social inequity and the school-to-prison
pipeline. With respect to learning, memory, social group dynamics,
democracy, and mental health, this book serves as a call-to-arms,
demanding civil rights for all students and for education to
fulfill its ultimate duty as a force for the common good.
