Welcome to Wrexham! Everyone in the world is talking about Wrexham
AFC – the Red Dragons are on fire. In 2023, the team achieved
their fairy-tale dream of promotion after 15 agonising years of
languishing at the very bottom of the lowest league. They did it,
in part, thanks to two Hollywood superstars, Ryan Reynolds and Rob
McElhenney, who purchased the club in 2020, and promptly took the
team on a superhero-inspired adventure back to the top of the turf.
This provincial Welsh football club has now been catapulted onto
the world's stage, thanks to the hit Disney+ documentary that
followed the celebrities' acquisition, the mega-watt signings, and
the dramatic twists and turns that felt straight out of a Hollywood
script. "I love every second of hating it. Wrexham AFC is the
greatest drug on earth." Ryan Reynolds Founded in 1864, the same
year Abraham Lincoln was re-elected as president amidst America's
Civil War, Wrexham is the oldest football club in Wales.
This book offers an introduction to the key legal and ethical
topics confronting Australian journalists and strategic
communicators both at home and internationally and offers a suite
of reflective techniques for navigating them. It starts by
positioning morals, ethics, and the law in their historical and
philosophical frameworks by tracing the evolution of free
expression and professional media ethics. Media law and ethics are
then contextualized in their modern international human rights
framework. Readers are equipped with a skill set for reflecting on
the law and ethics of professional media dilemmas – including
mindful reflection, the Potter Box, journaling, concept mapping,
and discussion. Such approaches are then applied to key topic
areas, including free expression; reputation; confidentiality;
privacy; justice; intellectual property; national security;
discrimination and harassment; and conflicted interests. Each is
examined in terms of its philosophical underpinnings, relationship
to human rights, professional ethical context, international
examples, legal principles, key Australian laws, legal cases, and
strategies for applying reflective practice techniques. It
concludes on a confident note – imploring communicators to engage
in constructive and mindful strategic communication with the
authority and confidence that results from a working knowledge of
media law and ethics. This handbook is for professional
communicators and students in all fields, but particularly in
journalism, public relations, corporate communication, media
relations, and marketing.

The next explosive book in James Patterson's #1 bestselling Private
series For Hannah Shapiro, a beautiful young American student, this
particular nightmare began eight years ago in Los Angeles, when
Jack Morgan, owner of Private--the world's most exclusive detective
agency--saved her from a horrific death. She has fled her country,
but can't flee her past. The terror has followed her to London, and
now it is down to former Royal Military Police Sergeant Dan Carter,
head of Private London, to save her all over again.
In central London, young women are being abducted off the street.
When the bodies are found some days later, they have been mutilated
in a particularly mysterious way. Dan Carter's ex-wife, DI Kirsty
Webb, is involved in the investigation and it looks likely that the
two cases are gruesomely linked.
Dan Carter drawn on the whole resources of Private International in
a desperate race against the odds. But the clock is ticking...
Private may be the largest and most technologically advanced
detection agency in the world, but the one thing they don't have is
the one thing they need--time.
This book aims to be the first comprehensive exposition of "mindful
journalism"-drawn from core Buddhist ethical principles-as a fresh
approach to journalism ethics. It suggests that Buddhist
mindfulness strategies can be applied purposively in journalism to
add clarity, fairness and equity to news decision-making and to
offer a moral compass to journalists facing ethical dilemmas in
their work. It comes at a time when ethical values in the news
media are in crisis from a range of technological, commercial and
social factors, and when both Buddhism and mindfulness have gained
considerable acceptance in Western societies. Further, it aims to
set out foundational principles to assist journalists dealing with
vulnerable sources and recovering from traumatic assignments.
Social media has many advantages for professional communication -
but it also carries considerable risks, including legal pitfalls.
This book equips students and communication professionals with the
knowledge and skills to help minimise the risks that can arise when
they post or host on social media. It offers them strategies for
taking advantage of the opportunities of social media while also
navigating the ethical, legal, and organisational risks that can
lead to audience outrage, brand damage, expensive litigation and
communication crises. The book uses stakeholder theory and risk
analysis tools to anticipate, identify, address and balance these
opportunities and risks. It takes a global approach to risk and
social media law, drawing on fascinating case studies from key
international jurisdictions to explain and illustrate the basic
principles. Whether you are a corporate communicator, social media
manager, journalist, marketer, blogger or student you will find
this book an essential addition to your professional library as the
first reference point when social media and legal risks arise.
Using Expressive Arts to Work with Mind, Body and Emotions combines
theory, research and activities to produce practical suggestions
for enhancing client participation in the therapy process. It
surveys the literature on art therapy; somatic approaches;
emotion-activating models; use of music, writing and dreamwork; and
the implications of the new findings in neuroscience. The book
includes step-by-step instructions for implementing expressive
therapies techniques, and contains a wide range of experiential
activities that integrate playful yet powerful tools that work in
harmony with the client's innate ability for self-healing. The
authors discuss transpersonal influences along with the practical
implications of both emotion-focused and attachment theories. Using
Expressive Arts to Work with Mind, Body and Emotions is an
essential guide to integrating creative arts-based activities into
counselling and psychotherapy and will be a useful manual for
practitioners, academics and student counsellors, psychologists,
psychotherapists, social workers and creative arts therapists.

Governments need to know how much revenue their tax systems will
raise, who will pay tax and what the effects on the incentives to
save, work and invest will be. This book draws on the experience of
tax modelling in western European economies and economies in
transition to show the range of techniques involved from 'back of
the envelope' calculations to sophisticated econometrics. Personal
and corporate income taxes are considered, as well as the essential
task of developing an appropriate database.

`I felt inspired by this comprehensive detailed guide that offers a
wide range of ERC exercises, techniques, and examples. The stories
in the final chapter are heartfelt. I was left with the sense that
Pearson and Nolan are clearly dedicated in their search for ways to
help traumatized children rediscover themselves.' -Dramatherapy,
Vol.28, Autumn 2006 `This book provides a moral, philosophical and
practical basis by which carers can move towards a more proactive
practice... It explains why carers must find the courage to reflect
on their own psychological constitution in order to effectively
help the young people in their care.' - Community Care `Focusing on
past experiences of children and adolescents experiencing
depression, hidden grief and unpredictable anger, this book is
aimed at teachers, youth workers, counsellors and parents. It
provides a guide to the `release of emotional stress' in order to

and cohesion to the methods described. The appendices provide
photocopiable work sheets and further information on workshops and
training.' -Community Practitioner Focusing on past experiences to
begin the process of emotional healing, this book provides methods
for helping children and adolescents experiencing depression, fear,
