In the mid- to late 1980s, rave culture developed. It influenced
music, design, art, drugs, fashion, language and even the law.
Originally emerging in the USA, it was refined in the UK by people
who wanted to dance, party and express themselves in terms of art
and music. It started in in small, sweaty clubs but such was the
popularity that soon enormous Raves, with tens of thousands of
people, were common. 'House' music and illegal drug ecstasy were
the driving forces behind what turned into a global phenomenon.
Events that started as secretive nights in underground clubs, with
word-of-mouth advertising grew from one-off take-overs of unusual
venues into huge open land-based events. Pager and telephonic
communication became the medium of message-passing, and flyers were
key to it all: informing the right people about the right place at
the right time. Chelsea Berlin was there from the beginning,
attending many of the now legendary events, from Club Shoom to
Energy and beyond. In Rave Art, the whole exciting movement is
documented through the flyers that were handed out freely (often
privately) to inform partygoers of the next venue. Flyer design
became an artform, and this book contains hundreds of the most
significant and rare examples from Chelsea's huge collection.
Together with personal reminiscences and quotes from famous,
infamous and not-so-famous attendees, Rave Art paints a vivid
picture of what is probably the last significant youth culture
movement of modern times.

What constitutes a lie? What are the different types of lies? Why
do people lie? Is dishonesty ubiquitous in human experience? And
what should be done with individuals who seek pschotherapeutic help
and yet can not reveal important aspects of their lives and even
fabricate histories, associations, and dreams? Such questions form
the backbone of this exceptional book. Starting with the emergence
of the capacity to lie in childhood and the formative influence of
the family in children's moral development, the discourse goes on
to include the variety of adulthood lies, including social lies,
existential lies, pathological lies, narcissistic lies, and
sociopathic lies. Contributions from distinguished psychoanalysts
like Salman Akhtar, Harold Blum, Ruth Fischer, Lucy LaFarge, Henri
Parens, and Michael Stone, along with others, explore the impact of
dishonesty on the internal and external realities of an individual.
Malignant forms of lies involving serious character pathology and
criminality, as well as their detection, are also discussed. The
book's aim is to help therapists enhance their empathy with
patients who are compelled to lie and to provide them with better
therapeutic strategies to deal with the clinical dilemmas that
arise in working with such children and adults.

This new text provides a concise and internationalized restatement
of the public value approach, an assessment of its impact to date -
in theory and practice - and of its particular relevance to the
challenges of public management in a time of crisis and austerity.

ECPA BESTSELLER - Build your Bible IQ and Christian worldview in just
fifteen minutes a day! Over the course of a year, Core 52 will help you
master the 52 most important passages in the Bible.
"You will gain the tools you need for living the life God has called
you to."--Kyle Idleman, pastor and author of Not a Fan
"For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for
all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to
come."--1 Timothy 4:8
Most of us want to know the Bible better, but few reach our goal, often
because we're too busy or we don't know where to start. Core 52 removes
both barriers, offering a common-sense solution that fits into our busy
lives. Respected Bible professor and teaching pastor Mark E. Moore
developed this proven process from thirty-five years of helping people
grow deeper in God's Word.
Each week features a brief essay, memory verse, Bible story, trajectory
verses, and practical ways to put what you've learned into practice. An
optional "Overachiever Challenge" offers the chance to memorize the top
100 Bible verses by year's end.
This simple approach allows you to become familiar with the big ideas
of the Bible in less time and with less effort than other reading
plans. In one year, you can master the core of the Bible--focusing on
topics from God's will to worry, happiness to holiness, and leadership
to love. These fifty-two core passages are lenses through which you can
read the rest of the Bible with clarity and confidence.
