The detention of children and young people as a response to
delinquent and antisocial behaviour remains a topical and
controversial issue. In this new edition of Working with Young
People in Secure Accommodation, Jim Rose provides an historical
perspective on the topic of young people in custody and discusses
the changes that have taken place in youth justice and the secure
estate over recent years. Rose introduces new material and has
updated the original content in order to reflect changes in policy
and practice. New areas covered include a consideration of the
issues arising for children and families who are detained while
issues of immigration and removal are being determined and the
detention of children in police custody. Using a framework of ideas
and theories to support staff thinking, the central chapters
explore in detail the dynamics that emerge when the daily work of
staff requires them to engage with vulnerable young people in the
intense conditions of a locked environment. The relationships
between staff and young people are shown as critical for the
achievement of positive outcomes. Taking a unique look at the issue
of detention and its impact on young people, this highly topical
book will be invaluable reading for practitioners, academics,
policy makers and senior managers as well as students of social
work, youth justice and education.

With the increasing awareness of environmental problems, there is a
growing desire for a detailed understanding of superficial deposits
in general, and glacial deposits in particular. This is because
these sediments have a profound influence on groundwater
protection, waste management and nature conservation. They are also
of vital importance to civil engineering, because they provide the
foundation for, as well as the materials extracted to build our
roads and buildings. The greater part of the British Isles was
glaciated, at least once, during the Quaternary Era. In the regions
subjected to glaciation, glacial deposits underlie much of the
present land surface. Although there have been many recent
publications on various Quaternary geological topics, the present
volume is the first dedicated to a detailed assessment of the
glacial deposits of Britain and Ireland. After introductory
chapters presenting the glacial history, the sedimentary sequences
in 24 critical regions are discussed. These regions include all of
Ireland, the glaciated area of Great Britain, and the adjoining
offshore region of the North Sea. The controversial evolution of
the Irish Sea Basin during the Last Glaciation is discussed from
various viewpoints. A collection of 'critical topics' presented in
the later part of the book range from the classification of
glacigenic landforms and deposits to the results of geophysical,
geotechnical and geochemical analyses. The book includes 368
figures, 40 tables and 51 colour photographs, a detailed index and
a list of over 1000 references. With 45 contributions by 48
scientists, this volume represents a truly contemporary view of
this field of research. Together with its companion volume the
Glacial deposits in North-West Europe, this book provides an
excellent textbook for the advanced student or the amateur, as well
as an indispensible source- and guidebook for the professional
scientist.

This book explores the ways in which pupils with social, emotional
and behavioural difficulties can be effectively engaged in
schooling - either in school or at home. It explains the social and
emotional underpinnings of learning and presents practical
strategies for aiding engagement. Nurture groups, originally
devised and implemented in the 1970s, are specially designed
classes that cater for pupils having difficulties in adjusting to
the requirements of mainstream classrooms. Paul Cooper and Yonca
Tiknaz present evidence of the success of nurture groups from the
perspectives of the children participating in them, their parents
and school staff members who manage nurture groups in schools, and
examine what factors affect the success of the group. From this
they draw key messages for effective practice, including the
fundamental importance of recognising a child's emotional needs and
meeting them, and the pivotal role of the relationship between the
teaching staff co-ordinating the group. Nurture Groups in School
and at Home will provide essential information and accessible
advice for teaching professionals running nurture groups in schools
and for parents and carers running them at home.
