collectors, offering insight and design inspiration through images
of built-in cabinets, stained glass windows, brick fireplaces, and
antiques displays.
A rich collection of imagery explores the actual homes of three of
the most esteemed wood artist/craftsmen of the modern era: Wharton
Esherick, Sam Maloof, and George Nakashima. Tour the private homes
of these masters and compare their innovations and vision through
the medium of their own homes, gardens, and work areas. Step into
their environments, where aesthetics are most accurately realized.
You'll delight in Esherick's humble mountaintop home where straight
lines were purposefully forbidden, and Maloof's sprawling
California home that expresses his inexhaustible creativity and
industriousness. Nakashima's home is a harmonious marriage of
Japanese influences with Pennsylvania's rich natural resources.
This book is a must-have for devotees of these artists, as well as
aspiring woodworkers who want tutelage from the top.

can tell you the story only now. I couldn’t back then, when it

what to believe. I am here to tell you what is true.' The
Afterlife, a journey to is an inspirational voyage of
discovery through heaven's many portals -Â you will experience
heaven’s many levels BEFORE you get there.

from around the United States in a wide variety of interior and
exterior projects. Large, full-color photography captures stone
constructions including retaining walls, steps, fireplaces, patios,
water features, and free standing structures. Each artist's work is
featured in a dedicated chapter and shows a selection of
techniques, including dry stacking, mortaring, paving, and carving.
Though these craftsmen adhere to different aesthetics, the

something with permanence is common throughout. From small garden
walls to two-story fireplaces, here is the grand, simple, and
sustainable work of contemporary stone artisans for designers,
students, and homeowners..
Sigmund Freud noted the importance of love in the healing of the
human psyche. So many of life's distresses have their origins in
lack of love, disruption of love, or trauma. People naturally seek
love in their lives to feel complete. Is therapy a substitute for
love? Or is it love by another name? This important book looks at
the place of love in therapy and whether it is the curative factor.
The authors continually stress, however, that within psychotherapy
both ethical and professional boundaries should govern this 'Love'
at all times in order for it to be experienced as healing and
therapeutic. This book offers explorations of the complexity of
love from different modalities: psychoanalytic, humanistic,
person-centred, psychosexual, family and systemic, transpersonal,
existential, and transcultural. The discussions challenge
therapists and other allied professionals to think about their
practice, ethics, and boundaries.
Globalization consists of an interlocking array of political,
economic, social, and cultural forces that challenge the
traditional international order in two key ways. First, states
historically had 'hard shells', by means of which they were capable
of consolidating differences between 'inside' and 'outside' to the
point where the latter could more easily be quarantined. Second,
for closely-related reasons they were largely able to 'absorb'
domestic society, such that the individual was less a citizen than
a subject. But through globalizing processes these (dubious)
attributes have been starkly exposed, which leads Haigh to ask,
Whither the state under globalization? Insightful and well-written,
this book is sure to spark lively debate while attempting to answer
its central question.
Discusses the reactions of seventeenth and eighteenth-century
writers of Irish history to the unprecedented turbulence of the
age. Ireland and the Irish, it is often argued, have been mired for
centuries in mindsets which employ the past in order to trace and
justify the enmities of the present. However, as Constructing the
Past: Writing Irish History 1600-1800 seeks to underscore, the
truth of such interactions with the Irish past is far more complex
and dynamic. Spanning two hundred years of history, this book finds
a relationship with the past which is as adaptive as it is rigid,
as iconoclastic as it is reactionary. Beginning with an
Introduction by Roy Foster, this innovative volume incorporates a
wide range of perspectives on how history in Ireland has been
written and perceived from the early-modern period onward. Drawing
upon both key moments - including the Cromwellian invasion, the
1688 Revolution and 1798, to name a few - as well as forgotten
incidents, each article discusses the ways in which the
presentationof the past in Ireland has been forged by the
circumstances of its writers and context of those memories. Drawing
upon contributions by both highly accomplished and up-and-coming
historians of Ireland, Britain and Europe, Constructing the Past
seeks to illuminate how the Irish past has been constructed, torn
down and again rebuilt by the Irish and historians of Ireland
alike. STEPHEN PAUL FORREST serves as the Director of Operations
forthe Lewis and Clark Trail Heritage Foundation; MARK WILLIAMS is
currently reading for a Doctorate in Modern European History at
Hertford College, Oxford.

This book provides an introduction to and a dynamic description of
a new psychological paradigm that balances the excesses and
distortions of the positive psychology paradigm. It offers valuable
theoretical and practical content to its readers on the vital need
for, nature of and potential for the reality psychology paradigm.
It includes concrete steps for this new paradigm to restore the
real power of vital psychological knowledge and techniques, which
need to be brought back from their association with artificial
positivity. This will provide real human benefits, including real
mindfulness, real resilience, real behaviour change, and real
communication. The book features a presentation of the underlying
principles of reality psychology – including the value of a full
connection with reality as it really is - rather than as we would
like it to be. This will help people thrive in response to as well
as survive our great real-life challenges, by developing
a deeply practical understanding of reality psychology
knowledge and related practice techniques. The book provides
considerable theoretical and practical benefits to students of a
variety of psychological courses, including positive psychology
related courses, and also of many other wellbeing related courses.
The book also provides valuable benefits to non-student readers –
expert and non-expert.
All Hiroto has ever known is a life on a tiny coastal speck of
Japan. Much of the country has been swallowed by Yokohama Station,
a mysterious, ever-growing series of buildings that's been around
for as long as anyone can remember. The few who live outside its
many entrances have never seen Inside and know only rumors and
legends of the station's interior. That all changes when Hiroto is
given an 18 Ticket, a mysterious item that lets him enter the
massive complex for five days. The young man has always sought a
purpose, but the one he finds may not be the sort he'd hoped for...

Practitioners across many counselling approaches acknowledge that
the therapeutic relationship is central to therapy and its
outcomes. This book argues that the therapeutic relationship cannot
be reduced to particular words or therapeutic skills, but is a
relationship encounter that promotes dialogue, contact and process.
In each chapter, experts in different fields interpret the
therapeutic relationship through the lens of their own modality,
offering: Summaries of the key theoretical and research bases
Example case studies of therapeutic interventions that illuminate
key relational components of the approach and the development and
management of the therapeutic relationship Study of the
limitations, challenges and complexities of maintaining a
therapeutic relationship Exploration of new developments in working
with clients - capturing work that the authors and other colleagues
have been involved in developing in that area The Therapeutic
Relationship Handbook is a broad ranging guide for students as well
as both new and experienced practitioners. Divine Charura is a
Senior Lecturer in Counselling and Psychotherapy at Leeds
Metropolitan University, UK. He is an Adult Psychotherapist who
works in the NHS, voluntary sector and in private practice, as well
as an independent trainer, supervisor and coach. Stephen Paul is a
client-centred psychotherapist, practising in the areas of therapy,
supervision and coaching. He retired as Director of The Centre for
Psychological Therapies at Leeds Metropolitan University, UK in
2012 after 20 years of service. "The editors and authors of this
book have produced a volume of theory and practice that has
tremendous breadth and scope and that is a thorough analysis of the
many facets of the therapeutic relationship. Rich in knowledge and
practical applications, the authors demonstrate not only an
understanding of their field, but also an ability to communicate
this with vignettes and examples that are relevant and enable
understanding for both students and practitioners alike. The
limitations and challenges of each approach are recognised and a
detailed list of further references is given for the reader to
explore if desired. I highly recommend this book for both students
and practitioners and congratulate the editors and authors on their
work. I will certainly use it in our Counselling Education Programs
for both Bachelor and Master of Counselling students." Dr Ann
Moir-Bussy, Program Leader and Senior Lecturer Counselling,
University of Sunshine Coast. Queensland, Australia
This schools' edition of Mark Haddon's multi-award-winning novel
adapted for the stage of the National Theatre by Simon Stephens is
perfect for Key Stages 3 and 4. Featuring the play script from the
Modern Plays edition but with the language adjusted for school
use*, this edition includes a wealth of classroom activities for
the English and drama classrooms. Christopher, fifteen years old,
stands beside Mrs Shears's dead dog. It has been speared with a
garden fork, it is seven minutes after midnight, and Christopher is
under suspicion. He records each fact in the book he is writing to
solve the mystery of who murdered Wellington. He has an
extraordinary brain and is exceptional at maths, but he is
ill-equipped to interpret everyday life. He has never ventured
alone beyond the end of his road, he detests being touched and he
distrusts strangers. But Christopher's detective work, forbidden by
his father, takes him on a frightening journey that turns his world
upside-down. This educational edition in Methuen Drama's Critical
Scripts series has been prepared by national Drama in Secondary
English experts Ruth Moore and Paul Bunyan. Building on a decade of
highly effective work and publications endorsed by national
organisations and supported by teachers and consultants across
Britain, each book in the series: > meets the requirements at
KS3 and GCSE > features detailed, structured schemes of work
utilising drama approaches to improve literary and language
analysis > places pupils' understanding of the learning process
at the heart of the activities > will help pupils to boost
English GCSE success and develop high-level skills at KS3 > will
save teachers considerable time devising their own resources. Simon
Stephens's adaptation of Mark Haddon's bestselling, award-winning
novel, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time offers a
richly theatrical exploration of this touching and bleakly humorous
tale. * The instances of stronger language have been tempered in
this edition specifically for school use. Teachers may still wish
to satisfy themselves that it is suited to the age of their pupils.
