Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

There is increasing interest in young people's participation in the
design and delivery of health services. But young people's views
are not consistently sought or acknowledged, and they are still
often marginalised in healthcare encounters. Drawing on original
research and a diverse range of practice examples, Brady explores
the potential for inclusive and diverse approaches to young
people's participation in health services from the perspectives of
young people, health professionals and other practitioners. She
presents a practical new framework, embedded in children's rights,
that shows how young people's participation can be integrated into
services in ways that are meaningful, effective and sustainable.
This volume of essays explores the scope for a further extension of
ecocriticism across the environmental humanities. Contributors, who
include both established academics and early career researchers in
the humanities, were given free rein to interpret the brief. The
collection is unusual in that it considers collaboration between
individuals both in the same discipline and across creative
disciplines. Subjects include familiar environments close to home
and those such as Iceland and Antarctica, where narratives of
climate, geology and ecology provide a stark backdrop to creative
output. A further innovation is the inclusion of essays on public
art, natural heritage interpretation and the visualisation and
aesthetic impact of wind farms. The book will be of interest to
writers, artists, students and researchers in the environmental
humanities and those with a general interest in the cultural
response to the environment. -- .
The Classic Work on Helping People Become Closer to God
Fathers Barry and Connolly see the work of spiritual direction
as helping people to develop their relationship with God. In
thinking and practice they have absorbed the insights of modern
psychotherapy, but have not been absorbed by them. This highly
practical book reflects the authors' experience at the Center for
Religious Development in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where spiritual
direction is available and where directors are trained.
MORAL ISSUES IN BUSINESS, 13E examines the moral dilemmas that are
common to today's business climate and gives readers the analytical
tools to resolve those issues. Using a combination of true stories,
interesting reading selections, and a conversational writing style,
this edition prepares readers for the moral quandaries awaiting
them in the professional world. Featured topics include: the nature
of morality, individual integrity and responsibility, economic
justice, pitfalls of capitalism, and corporations' responsibilities
to consumers and the environment. Plus, this edition also discusses
situation-specific concepts such as downsizing, whistle blowing,
sexual harassment, job discrimination, animal abuse, and drug
testing.
A Country of Refuge is a poignant, thought-provoking and timely
anthology of writing on asylum seekers from some of Britain and
Ireland's most influential voices, among them Sebastian Barry,
William Boyd, A. L. Kennedy and Hanif Kureshi. Compiled and edited
by human rights activist and writer Lucy Popescu, this powerful
collection of short fiction, memoir, poetry and essays explores
what it really means to be a refugee: to flee from conflict,
poverty and terror; to have to leave your home and family behind;
and to undertake a perilous journey, only to arrive on less than
welcoming shores. These writings are a testament to the strength of
the human spirit. The contributors articulate simple truths about
migration that will challenge the way we think about and act
towards the dispossessed and those forced to seek a safe place to
call home.

The title says it all. But to provide some background you need to
know that Casino gaming is growing exponentially today. And it's
not Roulette, Baccarat or the traditional games that are being
played. It is Poker and the even more popular Blackjack that are
the big attractions. It's a numbers game and its mathematics are at
the root of winning. So statistics and probability are in the weave
of the text and exciting to the number nuts among us. This title
includes such contents as: Mathematics - Gaming and Blackjack;
Advantage Components; Expert Conclusions - Thorpe, Scarne, Arnold
and Others; The Best Strategy; Two-card Combinations: from the 52
card deck - 1326 hands; Mathematical Distribution - Expectations of
dealer and player over 100,000 hands each; For Dealer and Player -
The expected games analysis, every option analysed; Advanced
Staking; Probability Theory - The misleading fallacy; The Dealer's
Face-up - And all it portends; Comprehensive Tables - Cover every
situation; and, Destroying the Fallacies - Hole-card cheating - The
card counter.
