Harnessing the inspiration available from the arts and the
imagination brings to life sensitive and effective social work
practice. Workers feel most satisfied while service users and
communities are more likely to benefit when creative thinking can
be applied to practice dilemmas. Drawing on contributions from
Canada, England and Utrecht this book illustrates the transforming
effect of creatively applied thinking to social problems. The first
part of the book considers how use of the self can be enhanced by
analytic reflection and application to difficulties facing
individuals and communities. The second part shows psychodynamic
theory to be a valuable aid when thinking about issues faced by
social workers facing threats and accusations, therapeutic work
with children and restorative youth justice. The third part of the
book considers the implications of working with the arts in
community settings - an ex-mining community in North West England,
the Tate Gallery in London and the 'cultural capital' of Liverpool.
Taken as a whole these chapters combine to inspire and provoke
thought of how the arts and the imagination can be used creativity
to help service users confronted by problems with living and the
workers who attempt to get alongside them to think about these.
This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Social

An indispensable guide to visual ethics, this book addresses the
need for critical thinking and ethical behavior among students and
professionals responsible for a variety of mass media visual
messages. Written for an ever-growing discipline, authors Paul
Martin Lester, Stephanie A. Martin, and Martin Rodden-Smith give
serious ethical consideration to the complex field of visual
communication. The book covers the definitions and uses of six
philosophies, analytical methods, cultural awareness, visual
reporting, documentary, citizen journalists, advertising, public
relations, typography, graphic design, data visualizations,
cartoons, motion pictures, television, computers and the web,
augmented and virtual reality, social media, the editing process,
and the need for empathy. At the end of each chapter are case
studies for further analysis and interviews with thoughtful
practitioners in each field of study, including Steven Heller and
Nigel Holmes. This second edition has also been fully revised and
updated throughout to reflect on the impact of new and emerging
technologies. This book is an important resource for students of
photojournalism, photography, filmmaking, media and communication,
and visual communication, as well as professionals working in these
fields.
Images are inscribed in the memory more easily than words, and some
remain with the viewer for a lifetime. Combining hindsight, insight
and foresight, the chapters in this book turn a spotlight onto
various aspects of health, social work and socially engaged arts
practice. The visual imagination is evoked in this book to help
practitioners see beneath the surface of contentious and
problematic issues facing human services today. Risk assessment,
child sexual abuse, work-life balance, old age, dementia, substance
misuse, recovery, sex work, homelessness, isolation, biography,
death and dying, grief, loss, vulnerability, care, and the function
of the museum as a preserver of memory, all come under the
sustained gaze and examination of the contributors. Grounded in the
arts and humanities, the visual sense as a gateway to empathy is
explored throughout these chapters. References are included to
visual art, curating dramatic performance, poetry, film, dance,
photography, diary entries, and public exhibitions. In an age when
people increasingly compose their lives by staring into various
screens, this book celebrates the visual modality that can humanise
services with 'human-seeings'. This book was originally published
as a special issue of the Journal of Social Work Practice.
Martin Smith--one of the leading voices in the modern worship
movement--shares his story, his insight, and his challenge to
change the world. For seventeen years, Smith held the microphone
for Delirious?--the mega-selling, Dove Award-winning,
Grammy-nominated band that helped bring the modern worship movement
into existence. Here Martin reflects on everything from the craft
of leading worship to the challenges of parenthood to how to find a
place of compassion within a culture of consumerism. Along the way,
he challenges readers: Are you going to be spectators--or agents of
change? Are you going to read history--or make it happen? Are you
just going to sing the songs--or will you live them out? Always
personal and often surprising, Smith's story will spur readers to
embrace the action God wants them to take.

This is the first comprehensive analysis of the development of
relations between Russia and NATO since 1991.
Since the re-emergence of Russia as an independent state in
December 1991, debates and controversies surrounding its evolving
relations with NATO have been a prominent feature of the European
security scene. This is the first detailed and comprehensive
book-length analysis of Russia-NATO relations, covering the years
1991-2005. This new volume investigates the nature and substance of
the 'partnership' relations that have developed between Russia and
NATO since the end of the Cold War. It looks at the impact that the
Kosovo crisis, September 11th, the Iraq War and the creation of the
NATO-Russia Council have on this complex relationship. The author
concludes that Russia and NATO have, so far, developed a pragmatic
partnership, but one that may potentially develop into a more
significant strategic partnership.
This book will appeal to students and scholars of international
relations, European politics and European security.
If human burials were our only window onto the past, what story
would they tell? Skeletal injuries constitute the most direct and
unambiguous evidence for violence in the past. Whereas weapons or
defenses may simply be statements of prestige or status and written
sources are characteristically biased and incomplete, human remains
offer clear and unequivocal evidence of physical aggression
reaching as far back as we have burials to examine. Warfare is
often described as 'senseless' and as having no place in society.
Consequently, its place in social relations and societal change
remains obscure. The studies in The Routledge Handbook of the
Bioarchaeology of Human Conflict present an overview of the nature
and development of human conflict from prehistory to recent times
as evidenced by the remains of past people themselves in order to
explore the social contexts in which such injuries were inflicted.
A broadly chronological approach is taken from prehistory through
to recent conflicts, however this book is not simply a catalogue of
injuries illustrating weapon development or a narrative detailing
'progress' in warfare but rather provides a framework in which to
explore both continuity and change based on a range of important
themes which hold continuing relevance throughout human
development.
Since the end of the Cold War, and especially since September 11
2001, the future of NATO has been the subject of intense debate.
This book brings together a group of international relations
specialists in order to offer fresh perspectives on the Alliance's
current and future purposes and roles. Rather than revisiting
long-standing debates in areas such as NATO enlargement, the
contributors focus instead on relevant contemporary issues. These
include the prospects for NATO 'going global', NATO's role in the
US-led 'war on terror' and the challenges posed by the
transatlantic 'capabilities gap' and the emergence of a military
dimension to the European Union. The paradox facing NATO today is
that, whilst it is busier than it has ever been before, it still
does not appear, to many observers, to have found a viable core
role or roles in the contemporary international security arena. By
exploring key issues and debates on NATO's current agenda, this
book helps us to better understand the prospects for its long-term
survival and viability. This book was previously published as a
special issue of the leading journal, Contemporary Security Policy.

For the record-breaking third time London will be hosting the
Olympic Games in 2012. From the inception of Baron Pierre de
Courbetin' s crusade to revive the Games of the ancient Greeks, in
the 1890s, through the triumphs and disasters of twenty-nine
Olympiads, The Daily Telegraph has been there to provide
eye-witness accounts of the greatest sporting moments in history
with characteristic authority. This comprehensive and colourful
review of the summer Olympics takes you back to 1908, the first
time London held the Games, with Dorando Pietri' s infamous
disqualification in the marathon. Then to Fanny Blankers-Koen and
Emil Zatopek lifeting the War-scarred capital in the Austerity
Games of 1948. With more recent record-breaking moments from the
Olympics of Sydney, Athens and Beijing, this is the perfect
scene-setter for the Games' return to London. From Sebastian Coe
and Steve Ovett to Jesse Owens and Carl Lewis, Kelly Holmes, Steve
Redgrave, Ian Thorpe and Daley Thompson, the tears and the glory of
all the heroes and villains from 116 years of Olympic history are
collected here in this wonderful anthology of the greatest show on
earth.
