Four lives... Two people... One question... What do you really know
about the people around you? To the residents of leafy Acacia
Avenue, Mr and Mrs Smith were like any other couple. Living a very
ordinary life, in a very ordinary suburb, on the outskirts of a
very ordinary city. But behind closed doors, Mr and Mrs Smith were
at the heart of a world filled with deception and organised crime -
and they were the good guys. Inspired by true events and detailing
Mr and Mrs Smith's covert deployments, this is first in a series of
gripping tales. 'Undercover Legends' is a fascinating insight into
the double lives of two undercover officers. First as individuals
and then as a couple, they had to balance the stresses and strains
of their real lives, families and relationships, with the murky
underworld they found themselves enmeshed in. In many ways, their
legends, those false identities and lives that inhabited the
criminal world, were no less real than the lives they were born
into. That was a must as their lives may have depended on the
robustness of their cover. Four lives... two people. One
question... will you join them on their extraordinary story?
Personal Process in Child-Centred Play Therapy provides a very
specific exploration of the play therapy process from the personal
perspective of the play therapist. This volume examines the
personal challenges, opportunities, losses and gains, and numerous
obstacles that one has to negotiate through the course of both
training to become a play therapist and working as a qualified
clinician with children who have complex life difficulties. The
book aims to offer a forum within which the role, function and
process of the "personal" within play therapy can be explored.
Bringing together a number of experienced play therapists, the book
shares often deeply personal accounts of their experience of
training and clinical practice. Chapters challenge the unspoken
therapist taboos of shame, childhood trauma, vulnerability and
grief, shining a light on the more hidden areas of therapist
experience. Clinical issues around the unconscious process are also
explored, but once again from the personal position of the play
therapist, rather than the child. With a unique and distinct
perspective on the therapeutic process, this book is specifically
intended for both trainee and experienced play therapists, but will
be relevant to all psychotherapists involved in working
therapeutically with children and young people.

Sensing the World: An Anthropology of the Senses is a highly
original and comprehensive overview of the anthropology and
sociology of the body and the senses. Discussing each sense in turn
- seeing, hearing, touch, smell, and taste - Le Breton has written
a truly monumental work, vast in scope and deeply engaging in
style. Among other pioneering moves, he gives equal attention to
light and darkness, sound and silence, and his disputation of taste
explores aspects of disgust and revulsion. Part phenomenological,
part historical, this is above all a cultural account of
perception, which returns the body and the senses to the center of
social life. Le Breton is the leading authority on the anthropology
of the body and the senses in French academia. With a repute
comparable to the late Pierre Bourdieu, his 30+ books have been
translated into numerous languages. This is the first of his works
to be made available in English. This sensuously nuanced
translation of La Saveur du monde is accompanied by a spicy preface
from series editor David Howes, who introduces Le Breton's work to
an English-speaking audience and highlights its implications for
the disciplines of anthropology, sociology, and the
cross-disciplinary field of sensory studies.

Rapid developments in this successful diagnostic and operative
technique have called for a new edition of "Arthroscopy of the Knee
Joint." This second edition has been completely revised and retains
very little material from the first edition. The diagnostic section
has been considerably expanded and elucidated and the operative
section adapted to modern technology. The first part of the book
presents the external conditions and pre-requisites for diagnostic
arthroscopy. The endoscopic anatomy and pathology of the knee joint
are covered in detail. Particular emphasis is placed on practical
hints for accurate arthroscopic procedures. The second part then
discusses operative techniques. The reader discovers step-by-step
how and which pathological findings should, in the author's
opinion, be treated. Here, too, the problems and possible
complications of arthroscopic surgery relevant to the individual
techniques are dealt with in detail. Equipped with this book, the
reader will be thoroughly informed on all current arthroscopic
methods and possibilities.
In thc space of ooly a few years, reconstructive surgery of the
skeleton of the hand has become a foeus of attention. Thc reason
for this has been the advent of principles and techniques of stable
internal fixation, tbc unparaJleled advantages of which are
particularly evident in the treatment of the complex, multi-
structural lesions so typical of injuries of the hand, and also in
procedures such as replantation or revascularisatioss. What a
striking contrast on the other hand is to be seen in the slow and
painful progress made in Dur understanding of the biomechanics of
the radiocarpal joint! This is most elo- quently ilIustrated by the
embryonie state of prosthetic surgery of the wrist, compared with
the sophisticatcd advances made in hip and knee surgery. Yet it is
undeniable that painful condi- tions involving dysfunctions of the
wrist are increasing in number and affect young people in
particular; this should spur us on to seek more effective
therapeutic solutions.
