The Clinician's Guide to Anxiety Sensitivity Treatment and
Assessment provides evidence-based strategies for clinicians
looking to treat, assess and better understand anxiety sensitivity
in their patients. The book delivers detailed guidance on the
theoretical background and empirical support for anxiety
sensitivity treatment methods, assessment strategies, and how
clinicians can best prepare for sessions with their clients.
Bolstered by case studies throughout, it highlights anxiety
sensitivity as a transdiagnostic risk factor while also looking at
the importance of lower-order sensitivity factors (physical,
social, cognitive) in treatment planning, implementation and
evaluation.

Grace is woken in the middle of the night to the sound of an armoured
horse in her back garden. The next thing she knows, a dying Grace
doppelganger bursts through her bedroom door and insists that she is
the fifteenth and final Grace, and it is her destiny to win the Worthy
War.
Grace's quest takes her to the county of Brokenshire, where she must
work with her trusty steed (who has a sharp tongue and a habit of
reminding Grace of all the ghastly ends her predecessors have met!) to
battle magical creatures and save the world.
A vegan T. rex, a distinguished dodo, bomber geese and the fearsome
trigger wolf are amongst the cast of memorable characters Grace meets
on her adventure.

'Immensely, cheerily silly' Guardian Dog lost in space? Grown an
extra head and don't know why? Pocket money stolen by a green blob?
You need the Space Detectives! Connor and Ethan are spending their
summer holidays aboard the world's first orbiting city, Starville
(basically Beverley Hills in space!). The amazing space station is
bursting with celebrities and the mega-rich. But Connor and Ethan
are too busy selling ice cream to see the sights. However, neither
of our heroes can resist a mystery and when they discover the space
station is hurtling on a collision course with the moon (eep!) they
know they need to step in. This is a case for the SPACE DETECTIVES!
Can Connor and Ethan find the culprit and save Starville from its
impending doom? LOOK OUT FOR SPACE DETECTIVES: EXTRA WEIRD
CREATURES
The UK shipping forecast covers the waters of Western Europe and
separates them into 31 sea areas encompassing the UK, from Dover to
Southeast Iceland to German Bight- of which Power photographed all
of them, over a period of four years. Each image is captioned with
the 0600hr forecast on the day they were taken. This newly edited
and revised second edition includes over 100 previously unpublished
images. 'The shipping forecast, of course, exists to save lives. It
warns those at sea, or about to put to sea, of approaching storms.
But for the majority of us, in Britain at least, its strange,
rhythmic language is unashamedly romantic and oddly reassuring,
despite forming an image of an island nation perpetually buffeted
by wind and waves. It manages to do all this while remaining
virtually incomprehensible: the general synopsis at 0 1 00. Low,
Southeast Iceland 995 moving slowly southwest, filling 1 00 7 by 0
1 00 tomorrow. Low, Biscay 958, expected Wales 1 00 5 by the same
time. Low, Trafalgar 1 00 3, moving slowly east, losing its
identity.'

and don't know why? Pocket money stolen by a green blob? Lost your
peculiar pet? You need the Space Detectives! What seems like a
simple case of a missing pet soon has the Space Detectives
completely bamboozled! This is no ordinary pet – it’s a
synthpet, where owners mix in different animals to make a totally
unique one-of-a-kind pet. The missing pet has the body and legs of
a cat, a duck’s bill, long rabbit-like ears and the scaly tail of
a crocodile. A creature like that should be easy to spot, right?
Not on Starville, the universe’s biggest space station where
every inhabitant looks different – it’s like looking for a star
in a galaxy. Where should our heroes Connor and Ethan even begin?

"To say I loved this book would be such an understatement. It's a
great, intensely fun, quick read that satisfied my Dresden Files
itch in a year during which I'm not sure we'll get a new novel in
the series." - Kirkus A war is raging between the vampire forces of
the Red Court and the White Council - a war that the wizards are
losing. So desperate are the Council that they've dragooned the
experienced and the outcast to reinforce their thinning ranks of
Wardens. One of these draftees is one Harry Dresden, Chicago's only
wizard-for-hire and a guy who's long been looked upon with
suspicion by the supernatural authorities. Now, he's one of them,
and his first big mission as a Warden is a doozy: take a small team
of greenhorns to a frigid town in the middle of nowhere to rescue a
handful of mortals who've been targeted by the Red Court. The
question is, why exactly are these particular mortals so crucial to
the outcome of the war? The answer will come only if Harry can keep
them, and his team, alive for one very long night. This graphic
novel collects the critically acclaimed, five-issue series in one
volume, and features a bonus section with Jim Butcher's original
story outline, sketchbook artwork from Carlos Gomez, cover gallery
with roughs from Stjepan Sejic, and more! Creator Commentary from
Jim Butcher: "The greatest frustration about writing the Dresden
Files is all the stories I come up with that are too small or too
straightforward to write into a novel. One of the great pleasures
I've had as a writer is getting the opportunity to tell some of
those stories in a short-story format, and in graphic novels like
this one! War Cry is one of the stories I always wanted to tell but
never got the chance to in the context of the novels, and I'm
extremely pleased with how well it's coming out."
Toy Story meets James Bond in the third book in this incredible action-packed series! Can Dan the teddy bear who is too strong, Arabella the rag doll with the bad temper and Flax the tech genuis robot rabbit save the day once more?

They'll need all their wits about them to defeat this baddie. And one thing is for sure: these kids don't play nice!

alliance with the notorious mob boss "Gentleman Johnnie" Marcone,
will the fast-and-loose Dresden and his young charge survive
unscathed? This graphic novel collects the critically acclaimed,
six-issue series in one volume, and features a bonus section with
Jim Butcher's original story outline, sketchbook artwork from
Carlos Gomez, cover gallery with roughs from Stjepan Sejic, and

The Young Americans were a nationalist movement within the
Democratic Party made up of writers and politicians associated with
the New York periodical, the Democratic Review. In this revealing
book, Mark Power Smith explores the ways in which-in dialogue with
its critics-the movement forged contrasting visions of American
nationalism in the decades leading up to the Civil War. Frustrated,
fifty years after independence, by Britain's political and cultural
influence on the United States, the Young Americans drew on a wide
variety of intellectual authorities-in the fields of literature,
political science, phrenology and international law-to tie popular
sovereignty for white men to the universalist idea of natural
rights. The movement supported a noxious program of foreign
interventionism, racial segregation, and cultural nationalism. What
united these policies was a new view of national allegiance: one
that saw democracy and free trade not as political privileges but
as natural rights for white men. Despite its national reach, this
view of the Union inadvertently turned Northern and Southern states
against each other, helping to cultivate the conditions for the
Civil War. In the end, the Young America movement was ultimately
consumed by the sectional ideologies it had brought into being.
Chicago's only professional wizard, IS BACK AND READY FOR ACTION,
in the new entry in the #1 New York Times best-selling Dresden
Files. Harry Dresden, Is working for Bigfoot. Three hard to find
Dresden short stories reimagined and interwoven with additional
material to make a wholly original graphic novel story featuring
Harry taking on a case and going under cover to watch over Irwin
Pounder, Bigfoots Scion. Featuring a cover by Chris McGrath the
current Dresden Files prose cover artist. Don't miss this sixth
all-new graphic novel story set in the official Dresden Files
continuity and exclusive to Dynamite.

custom-made police robot rabbit - are ready for their next task.
This time, the secret code that controls every Snaztacular Ultrafun
toy has been stolen and all over the world toys are revolting and
turning against the children who own them. Can Arabella disguise
herself as a super-sweet little doll in order to find out more from
the daughter of Snaztacular's top scientist? Can Dan and Flax chase

And can they save the day before the mind-controlled toys forget

without a blood sacrifice of his own?
