Take your therapeutic practice with children, youth, and families
out into nature The number of children, youth, and families seeking
help for a wide range of mental health concerns is growing at an
alarming rate, and many struggle to thrive despite well-intentioned
interventions from skilled helpers. Unplugging from technology and
reconnecting with the web of life is a powerful antidote to the
highly technological and fast-paced realities of so many.
Nature-Based Therapy addresses this underlying disconnection
between humans and their ecological home, exploring theories and
therapeutic practices undertaken with children, youth, and
families, including: Developing sensory awareness of outer and
inner landscapes Navigating risk in play Case examples with a
diverse range of settings, intentions, and interventions.
Nature-Based Therapy is for counselors, therapists, youth and
social workers, educators, and parents working in educational and
therapeutic settings who want to take their practice beyond the
office walls and into the powerful terrain of the wild, partnering
with nature as a co-facilitator to create lasting change.
This book is written by three commercial lawyers. Their clients
often ask them as much for help in getting out of a contract as in
getting them into one in the first place. Built around two business
case studies, the book highlights the various legal issues that a
business must address when faced with a contract it wants to walk
away from. In the first instance the business needs to discover
whether it is as shackled by a contract as it thinks it is. In many
cases a contract is not as binding as it might initially appear -
Getting Out of a Contract explains the circumstances in which this
applies. It then goes on to explore how to minimize the damage
should the agreement be inescapable and helps the reader to
understand what the consequences of any actions might be. Written
in plain English, the authors manage to demystify complicated
aspects of English law for the non-lawyer. This book will help
managers to: c address how they make contracts; c avoid making
wrong decisions because they fail to appreciate what contracts they
actually have or how to get round them; c become more attuned to
the legal ins and outs of contracts, enabling them to use lawyers
more cost-effectively Company secretaries, finance directors and
managers at all levels will find Getting Out of a Contract
accessible and an invaluable business planning tool.

The Penguin Classics debut that inspired a classic film and a
current Broadway revival
Reginald Rose's landmark American drama was a critically acclaimed
teleplay, and went on to become a cinematic masterpiece in 1957
starring Henry Fonda, for which Rose wrote the adaptation. A
blistering character study and an examination of the American
melting pot and the judicial system that keeps it in check, "Twelve
Angry Men" holds at its core a deeply patriotic belief in the U.S.
legal system. The story's focal point, known only as Juror Eight,
is at first the sole holdout in an 11-1 guilty vote. Eight sets his
sights not on proving the other jurors wrong but rather on getting
them to look at the situation in a clear-eyed way not affected by
their personal biases. Rose deliberately and carefully peels away
the layers of artifice from the men and allows a fuller picture of
America, at its best and worst, to form.

The Plant Healer's Path is the first of two volumes by Jesse Wolf
Hardin, cofounder of Plant Healer Magazine, with enchanting tales,
medicinal plant profiles and favorite herbal recipes by Kiva Rose,
as well as contributions by David Hoffman, Phyllis Light, Paul
Bergner and more. Hardin tackles topics vital to an effective,
empowered herbal practice, including many never addressed before,
with suggestions for taking control of and enjoying our lives, and
tips that can benefit herbalists and non-herbalists alike. Paul
Bergner says"Whether just beginning or already walking the path,
The Plant Healer's Path provides a panoramic road map of the
terrain - both internal and external - for any person called to
healing with plants... with thought-provoking essays on the issues
most important to our work," and Phyllis Light writes that this
book "does more than provide a working model of herbal practice, it
also addresses our hopes, our fears and concerns as herbalists,
acknowledging the differences, the uniqueness that each brings to
their art, craft and science. What more could we ask for?"
Most African-Guyanese today are descendants of enslaved Africans
who were victims of the trans-Atlantic slave trade. These captives
had previously been members of societies which had been
distinguished by significant achievements and were able to make a
valuable contribution to the land to which they were taken. Themes
in African Guyanese History seeks to deal in a balanced way with
the history of these forced migrants from the time of their arrival
in what were then the Dutch colonies of Essequibo and Berbice to
the present day.
'At the end, the teacher asked for some feedback. I had obviously
made an impression on a boy called Ben. `I'm glad you've come in
today because people think that I can't do anything in a
wheelchair. After listening to you I know that I can.' At the age
of 15, Hannah Rose had to come to terms with a life-changing event
when a virus paralysed her from the neck down. Her story was
featured in `Hannah, Same Both Ways', a book which had a huge
impact on many readers. In this follow-up, Hannah's remarkable
story continues. `Hannah: Moving On' is full of amazing
developments, unexpected surprises and hilarious anecdotes. From
beginning to end, Hannah never fails to inspire.
