Barely out of film school, Rob Long struck the jackpot and landed a
job on the phenomenally successful TV sitcom, Cheers. However, with
the demise of the show, Long was faced with the question, 'Is there
life after Cheers?' Mercilessly witty about the daunting process of
setting up a new series and getting it on air, these two books tell
the absurd tale of what came next. Getting from pitch to pilot is a
tricky path to navigate successfully, from making non-negotiable
changes and deal-breaking edits, combined with accommodating the
whims of studios, networks and agents, often the finished product
ends up a long way from where the script-writer started. With the
help of his agent, her constant demands, monstrous salesmanship,
brutal irony and unswerving loyalty, Long's career fluctuates from
wannabe to player, from award-winning script-writer to burnt out
has-been. And it's all, as he says 'half true'.
A sense of loss can have a very disturbing affect on children
and can come about not only as a result of bereavement, but also
after divorce/seperation, moving away from friends, moving between
foster homes etc. This book looks at:

- listening to troubled children.
Understanding how children think and feel is the key to buiding
good relationships in the classroom. This book looks at:
- underlying causes of emotional conflicts
- the nature of maladaptive coping mechanisms
- why boys tend to act out and girls ten to act in
- interventions to promote the use of adaptive coping
styles.
Is there more disruptive behavior in schools today?
The simple answer to this often asked question is probably yes.
But the reasons lie more outside teenagers than inside. For too
many teachers there can be an attitude of: "I was a teenager once,
therefor I know what it is like." But we all develop in a unique
time and the issues are unique to that period. Pressures differ,
fears differ. There are times when schools are seen to be part of
the problem rather than the solution.
