Children's Anxiety: A Contextual Approach provides an introduction to anxiety in children and teenagers, emphasising the importance of understanding the life circumstances of young people. The book provides an up-to-date account of research on the developmental, familial and social context of child anxiety, along with nine vibrant and detailed case studies illustrating the ways in which young people can be helped to deal with serious and complex anxiety problems. In order to begin to understand complex anxiety within children's life circumstances Part One of the book provides the reader with a developmental framework for thinking about children's anxiety. Part Two then presents nine in depth case studies, organised not by the type or nature of anxiety but by the context within which problematic anxiety can occur. Part Three acts as a summary of the key points emerging from the clinical case studies. This book will be essential reading for those working and training in the specialist field of child mental health, as well as community and hospital professionals working with children and young people, including teachers, doctors, social workers and nurses.
In this experimental dream-poem a famous European cathedral literally takes off and travels - as in a Japanese animated film - calling in at the Sargasso Sea, then the West Mariana Ridge in the western Pacific, and on to the Transantarctic Mountains. On board are a small band of people who happen to be in the cathedral when she takes off, led by a young and bemused cathedral canon. The East Anglian Fenland - especially as it was in early medieval times - lies deep within the cathedral's sense of herself and her people as she travels the globe. But she isn't all local memory; her twenty-first-century almost-silent Octagon engyn powers her and her crew on a tour through geological and historic time. In her newfound freedom the cathedral gets up close and personal with Archean grey gneiss, discovers eel leptocephali, finds magical ancient plants in her own transept, and welcomes a stowaway cat called Mrs Chippy. Drawing on many sources of inspiration, including Geoffrey Chaucer's The House of Fame, this poem is surreal, intricate and sometimes comic.
