This book explores the importance of effective multi-agency and
multi-disciplinary partnership work for the mental health of
children and young people in care and adoption. It takes an overall
systemic perspective, but the co-authors contribute different
theoretical approaches. It focuses on practice, showing how
practitioners can draw on their varied theoretical approaches to
enhance the way they work together and in partnership with carers
and with professionals from other agencies. The book provides a
context that looks at the needs of children and young people in the
care and adoption systems, the overall importance for their mental
health of joined up 'corporate parenting', and national and local
approaches to this. It then moves to focus on practical ways of
working therapeutically in partnership with others who contribute
diverse skills and perspectives, using specific case examples.
Additional chapters look at collaborative ways of working with key
carers to enhance their therapeutic role. Finally, some of the main
elements of partnership collaboration are explored, as well as the
challenges of work across agencies and disciplines.

Some of the foremost authorities in earth sciences contributed to
this volume, first published in 1992, to provide a highly
accessible and stimulating account of the rapid evolution of
knowledge about the processes that drive and shape the Earth.
Well-illustrated and extremely readable accounts cover many aspects
of the earth sciences that are often confined to the more esoteric
literature - from magma generation in the Earth to the formation of
sedimentary basins. From contributions on the Earth's interior and
its dynamic evolution to investigations of the natural and
human-driven disturbances to the environment, Understanding the
Earth reflects the increasingly integrated and multi-disciplinary
research that has fed our understanding of the Earth's origin and
its internal and surface processes, and provides an indispensable
guide to students of modern earth sciences.
'I want what I want ... not what other people think I ought to
want' Roy Clark insists to all those who attempt to help him: to
the psychiatrist at the mental hospital in which he briefly finds
himself; to his baffled but affectionate sister, whose clothes he
has stolen; to his father, who is appalled that he has produced
such a son. For Roy Clark wants to be Wendy Ross. When a small
legacy enables him - not to have the operation on which he has set
his heart - but at least to dress and live his life as a woman, he
feels brilliantly alive for the first time. But then he meets a man
called Frank and, realising he can't live without love, the stage
is set for tragedy. I Want What I Want is an extraordinary portrait
of a young man struggling with his gender identity. Devastating and
deeply moving, it is a modern classic and was made into a film by
the same title starring Anne Heywood.

This book is a definitive biography of James Brown, an
extraordinary and controversial superstar, that encompasses his
entire life until his death on Christmas Day 2006. For decades,
James Brown dominated the changing face of post-war popular black
music. Others have been as inspirational in the short term and
several of his successors have been bigger pop stars, but none has
matched Brown's independent authority, sustained influence or
commercial longevity. But while generations danced to the pulse of
James Brown, at the end of the 1980s the man himself was back in a
Southern US jail, a mile from there he was incarcerated in his
teens. Between two internments, is the compelling story of a man
who, by reaching from his roots and striving determindly for
himself, came to represent in music and personal power, the
post-war emancipation of black America. It is illustrated with rare
photographs and includes a comprehensive discography.
