Teaching the World to Sleep
Sleep problems are ubiquitous in the modern world, significantly impacting on quality of life, mental health, and performance at work and at home. More significantly, sleep problems accompany almost every mental health condition and are a significant driver in the development and maintenance of poor mental health. This book describes the current state of knowledge on the science of sleep, covering the various forms of insomnia and parasomnia that abound, before discussing the variety of assessment and treatment options available to the healthcare practitioner. Further discussion of psychological and behavioural interventions is made with particular reference to a new, second-generation Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for insomnia, how this is an effective treatment modality, and how it can be applied with clients presenting with more complex physical and mental health conditions. The final chapter presents the range of theories as to the purpose and function of dreams and dreaming, and how 'dream-work' has been applied in the therapeutic setting.

David and the Goliath Within
"Freshness has no smell" sliding down in life to the perplexities of struggle. One thing that individuals will come to the realization is that new experiences are what makes or breaks us. Sometimes these experiences happen on the outskirts of our psyche, other times they are part of us. But the newness of the experience is void of any smell from the past; by nature it cannot make a declaration to move is if it is contaminating yesterday's odor. This was the lesson that author David Lee Hereford had to learn. It has because of a long, contaminated journey through sex, infidelity, abandonment, superficial relationships and finally cancer, that has forced him to face the Goliath from within. This is a journey of realization and reflection, one of the reader will not be able to forget. It is a bold message that continues to be perpetual because life is organic and although the struggle continues both physically and emotionally, the author continues to prevail.

Independent Television Production in the UK
This book is the first authoritative account of the UK’s independent television production sector, following the creation of Channel 4 in 1982. It examines the rise of a global industry, increasingly interconnected through format development, distribution, ancillary sales and rights. Drawing on case studies, interviews and policy analysis; the author considers the cultural politics behind the growth of the ‘indies’, the labour conditions for workers in this sector, and some of the key television programmes that have been created within it. Filling an important gap in our understanding, this book constitutes a comprehensive account of this vital cultural industry for students, academics and researchers working in the areas of the cultural and creative industries, media and cultural policy and television studies.
