Throughout most of human history, our ancestors have done rather
poorly when dealing with acts of violence. To cite but one of many
shocking examples, let us perhaps recall a case from 1801, of an
English boy aged only 13, who was executed by hanging on the
gallows at Tyburn. What was his crime? It seems that he had been
condemned to die for having stolen a spoon (Westwick, 1940).
"Form-Meaning Connections in Second Language Acquisition" is an
interdisciplinary and timely edited book of essays and empirical
studies, most of which are based on the papers presented at the
Form and Meaning Conference held in Chicago in 2002. The goal of
the conference and now of the book is to present linguistic and
cognitive approaches to second language acquisition, attempting to
integrate external and internal issues in interlanguage
development, while outlining directions for future research. The
editors address questions, such as: What is the nature and sequence
of the form-meaning mapping process? How are these connections
made? How are these connections used to construct grammars and
lexicons? And, how can conditions and external factors be
manipulated to improve the chances of making these form-meaning
connections?
Contributors to this volume include such second language
acquisition scholars as Susan Gass, Nick Ellis, Kathleen
Bardovi-Harlig, Catherine Doughty, and Diane Larsen-Freeman. They
address these form-meaning issues from a variety of settings and
from multiple perspectives.
Researchers and graduate students in applied linguistics, cognitive
psychology, linguistics, and language pedagogy will find this
volume to be an important resource.
Prisons are not ideal environments in which to practice
psychotherapy, but they are places in which it is urgently needed.
Unfortunately, too many people do not understand either the needor
what therapy can offerand ignorance is a powerful enemy of
practice. The Prison Service has the difficult task of attempting
to ensure that all needs can be catered for. Its most intractable
problem is with those at the extreme end of the difficult,
dangerous and disruptive spectrum, whose treatment cannot solely be
a matter of control. These are the prisoners whose treatment and
needs are described in this book.Psychotherapy should not be seen
as antithetical to the ethos of a prison it is important that
prison staff understand therapists, and vice versa. The value of
Life Within Hidden Worlds is that it helps to fill the gap by
explaining, simply yet graphically, the challenges that face
therapists.Sir David Ramsbotham, HM Chief Inspector of Prisons,
from his Foreword.

Imagination can create - or it can destroy. Sam Little, a wildly
imaginative ten-year old boy, holds that power in his mind. In an
effort to cope in the ordinary world, Sam makes one heartfelt wish
to make his imagination real. He doesn't quite realize the
seriousness of his wish until his once imaginary, but now quite
real friend, Yetews, unexpectedly draws him into the hidden world
of Imagia. Though he believes that he is merely on an adventure of
his own creating, he begins to see that he's wrong. What begins as
an exciting adventure quickly spirals into a waking nightmare. With
the help of his Guardian and the friends he makes along the way, he
discovers just how powerful imagination is and how dangerous it can
be when used by the wrong mind. His unique ability will alter the
course of his life and change the very world he's in. Once he finds
that he's been brought into this world in the midst of dark and
dangerous times, he's forced upon a decision that no child should
be forced to make - return home, or become one of the lost children
in Imagia forever.
