Maybe it's time to stop ignoring God, and start embracing him
instead . . .
Teens grieve differently from adults and often get lost in the
shuffle after the death of a loved one. "Weird Is Normal When
Teenagers Grieve" is unique because it is a self-help book for
grieving teens written by an actively grieving teen. Author Jenny
Lee Wheeler lost her father to cancer when she was fourteen and
validates for her peers that they have the right to grieve in their
own way and according to their own timetable, that their grief
attacks might be different from those of adults around them, and
that they aren't going crazy if they see signs from their loved
one. Dr. Heidi Horsley writes in the Foreword, "Teen grief is often
overlooked and unacknowledged. ... Jenny's journey will strike a
note with teenagers everywhere who have experienced the loss of
someone they love. She gives sound advice and lets them know they
are not alone."

Groundbreaking essays show the variety and complexity of the roles
played by inquisition in medieval England. Inquisition in medieval
and early modern England has typically been the subject of
historical rather than cultural investigation, and focussed on
heresy. Here, however, inquisition is revealed as playing a broader
role in medievalEnglish culture, not only in relation to sanctions
like excommunication, penance and confession, but also in the
fields of exemplarity, rhetoric and poetry. Beyond its specific
legal and pastoral applications, inquisitio was a dialogic mode of
inquiry, a means of discerning, producing or rewriting truth, and
an often adversarial form of invention and literary authority. The
essays in this volume cover such topics as the theory and practice
ofcanon law, heresy and its prosecution, Middle English pastoralia,
political writing and romance. As a result, the collection
redefines the nature of inquisition's role within both medieval law
and culture, and demonstrates the extent to which it penetrated the
late-medieval consciousness, shaping public fame and private
selves, sexuality and gender, rhetoric, and literature. Mary C.

A heartbreaking and moving true story of two sisters separated at
birth, and their journey towards finding each other, celebrating
the true meaning of family. Helen Edwards grew up in a pit village
in Tyneside in the post-war years, with her gran, aunties and
uncles living nearby. She felt safe with them, but they could not
protect her from her neglectful mother and violent father. Behind
closed doors, she suffered years of abuse. Sometimes she talked to
an imaginary sister, the only one who understood her pain. Jenny
was adopted at six weeks and grew up in Newcastle. An only child,
she knew she was loved, and with the support of her parents she
went on to become a golfing champion, but still she felt that
something was missing. . . Neither woman knew of the other's
existence until, in her fifties, Jenny went looking for her birth
family and found her sister Helen. Together they searched for the
truth about Jenny's birth - and uncovered a legacy of secrets that
overturned everything Helen thought she knew about her family.
Happily, they also discovered that they were not just sisters, they
were twins. Inspirational and moving, My Secret Sister by Helen
Edwards and Jenny Lee Smith, is the story of two women brave enough
to confront their past, and strong enough to let love not
bitterness define them.

Children in public care complain that they have too many
placements. Professionals agree but little is known about the
reasons for this instability or how it affects different groups of
children. The Pursuit of Permanence explores this core issue for
children's services. Based on the largest study of the English care
system in recent years, the book examines the children (what they
need and what they want), their movements into, out of and within
the care system, the nature and quality of their placements and the
outcomes (whether the children are settled or happy). It analyses
the reasons for movements and outcomes in different groups of
children, and the relative impacts of the departments, social work
teams and placements. It concludes with suggestions about how the
care system should work, what it should offer and how it should be
managed and inspected. This detailed, innovative and comprehensive
study is essential reading for all professionals and academics
involved with fostering, leaving care, adoption and children's
services, as well as policy makers and students on social work
courses.
