'Fascinating' Margaret Atwood Can taking the law into your own hands be the right thing to do? In June 2013, three upstanding citizens of a small town in Nova Scotia murdered their neighbour, Phillip Boudreau, while out fishing. Boudreau was an inventive small-time criminal who had terrorised and entertained Petit de Grat for two decades. He had been in prison for nearly half his adult life. He was funny and frightening, loathed, loved and feared. Boudreau seemed invincible, a miscreant who would plague the village forever. As many people said, if those fellows hadn't killed him, someone else would have. Blood in the Water is a gripping story in a brilliantly drawn setting, about power and law, security and self-respect, and the nature of community. And at its heart is a disturbing question: are there times when taking the law into your own hands is not only understandable but the responsible thing to do?
This book brings together a global community of mental health professionals to offer an impassioned defence of relationship-based depth psychotherapy. Expressing ideas that are integral to the mission of the Psychotherapy Action Network (PsiAN), the authors demonstrate a shared vision of a world where this therapy is accessible to all communities. They also articulate the difficulties created by the current mental health diagnostic system and differing conceptualizations of mental distress, the shortsightedness of evidence-based care and research, and the depreciation of depth therapy by many stakeholders. The authors thoughtfully elucidate the crucial importance of therapies of depth, insight, and relationship in the repertoire of mental health treatment and speak to the implications of PsiAN’s mission both now and in the future. With a distinguished international group of authors and a clear focus on determining a future direction for psychotherapy, this book is essential reading for all psychotherapists.
How do beaches function? Where do the waves come from, and why are they always parallel to the shore, no matter which way the shore faces? Where does sand come from, and why are some beaches grey, some white, some beige? What plants and animals live there, and how do they deal with this harsh, plastic environment? And what do beaches mean to humans? Arrivals and departures, invasions and migrations, the first contact between the explorers and the indigenous peoples - they all take place in that sandy zone where the sea meets the land. When a film actor walks alone on a beach, the viewer knows s/he is contemplating change or reacting to it. On the summer sands, bishops and judges and executiv...
Donald and Spider’s family continues to grow. Their multiple, specialized operations continue onward and are doing great things. Not so great things for those in positions of power and those on the underbelly of society, but great for everyone else on the planet. When the twins, Donna and Donnie, take on the ambitious, impossible project of mapping the entire universe, the Waldheim family finds itself living off-world for a year. A lot can happen in a year. A lot does happen in a year. When the family returns to Earth, they discover a human population of less than three-hundred-million and that number is dropping, precipitously. No alien force, microbe, or world conflict has resulted in th...
Donald and Spider’s family operations are churning, fast and furiously. Nate has taken a distinct dislike to people on the internet who think they can say anything, with impunity. Silver can help with that. Karen does not like the filth on the internet. She is not too happy with the filth, in the American streets, either. Silver can help with that, also. Donna and Donnie have decided that it is time to make something of their lives. And why not? They will be two years old, soon. What should they do? Cure cancer? End the violence in America’s inner cities? Create a multi-billion-dollar business that lifts the residents of those inner cities out of poverty? Why not all of the above? Silver can help with that, as can the rest of their family team. The obstacles of city hall, the unions, organized crime, and, of course, other aliens, are no obstacles, at all, to Donald’s family. The opportunities are limitless, when Silver gains sentience. Spider says that is impossible for a machine to feel. Silver says that the word ‘impossible’ is no longer relevant. He may be correct.
