Healing Through the Arts for Non-Clinical Practitioners
Time and time again the arts have been called on to provide respite and relief from fear, anxiety, and pain in clinical medicinal practices.

What More Can I Say?
In this, her fifth book of poems, Prinnie gives us her quirky take on the issues confusing and complicating her life. She analyses, in beautiful verse, some of the unusual people she encounters, the mysterious aspects of nature that stir her heart, and the too-often baffling technology of today's world that intrigues her mind. Who else can make us mourn the short life of a common moth, or lament a robin with a broken beak? Prinnie can.

Recent years have seen a growing impetus to explain social life almost exclusively in biological and mechanistic terms, and to dismiss cultural meaning and difference. This book presents evidence to contest such theories and to provide a multifaceted account of the complexity and variability of the human condition.
