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.

This book takes an innovative approach to using narrative therapy in counselling people who have been subject to childhood sexual abuse. Reclaiming Lives from Sexual Violence presents an illustrative case study of the authors, Tim the therapist in consultation with Dale the client, who was sexually abused as a child by a clergy member. The book is unique in documenting their therapeutic work using transcripts taken directly from their sessions together. This narrative approach invites the reader to consider different ways of engaging in therapy in order to challenge the dominant social discourses around masculinity and shame. Looking at shame from a position of value awareness rather than a deficit perspective, this book extends counselling to consider the individual experience as political and one that must be shared outside the one-to-one therapy environment. This will be an essential resource for beginning or established therapists and practitioners working with clients who have been victims of sexual violence.

Watch it All, Collect it All, Control it All: In 1791, an Englishman named Jeremy Bentham designed a new kind of prison. It enabled a watchman in a central tower to see into every cell, but the prisoners could not see the watchman and never knew when they were being watched. Bentham called his building a 'Panopticon', meaning all-seeing. Today, we don't need special buildings. We have the ability to make every workplace, every public space, and every home a Panopticon. On the phone, on the Internet, and whenever we walk by a security camera, we are being watched. But who is watching, and why? In a world where everyone is under surveillance, Jack Stone becomes a Watcher. Assigned to the elite cases, he Watches live video of US Foreign Service personnel in their own homes. Soon, the games he sees them playing in their bedrooms turn violent, and Stone must decide whether to intervene or leave the victims to their fate. But Stone is also being Watched, and he is dangerously close to discovering the truth. Can he help the victims in time? And can he escape before he becomes a victim too? Warning: For Adults Only. Contains Adult Content (strong language; sex, including BDSM scenes; violence).

Eurhythmics, a dynamic, active approach to teaching and learning music, was developed by Swiss musician Emile Jaques-Dalcroze. These complete, sequenced lessons give clear examples of the method in practice. Ideal for preschool and early elementary music classes, the lessons include detailed procedures, stories for creative movement, songs with piano accompaniments, examples for piano improvisation, and numerous exercises in rhythmic movement.

The activities of a young boy on a small farm in the Texas Cross Timbers during the 1880s seem especially distant today. No one can remember the adventure of a sixteen-and-a-half-mile journey, which consumed the greater part of a day; or hurried predawn dressing in a frosty cold loft while the fragrance of a hearty breakfast wafted upward through the floor cracks; or a two-room schoolhouse, where the last half of Friday afternoon was given over to "speaking pieces" or to spelling and ciphering matches. Through the recollections of Edward Everett Dale we are able to view a pattern of life in rural America now gone forever. For The Cross Timbers is a story which, with but a few minor variations, could have been told about a vast number of small boys on farms cleared from the virgin forests in the timbered regions of many states. After presenting a brief introduction to the members of the Dale family and the plant, animal, and bird life of the Lower Cross Timbers countryside, the author describes his boyhood of a past century. He tells of his home, its furnishings, and the food served there, as well as the neighbors and relatives who come to visit. We learn of the superstitions, the humorous homespun expressions, the mores of early rural Texans. We hunt and fish with young Master Dale in the thick woods and along the clear creeks. Pioneer life demanded much hard work, but not to the exclusion of a diverting social life-both of which included the youngsters, as the author so graphically relates. Dale tells us also of the religious and secular education of the era, showing the significance of the home in supplementing these two influences. Anyone reading this volume must be impressed by the great differences in the lifeways of rural children today and of those of the end of the nineteenth century.
