Educating for Meaningful Lives
Why are students becoming disengaged from schooling? Many teachers, administrators and designers of policy and curriculum are expressing concern over this issue.

Freud and Psychoanalysis
Pocket Essentials is a dynamic series of books that are concise, lively, and easy to read. Packed with facts as well as expert opinions, each book has all the key information you need to know about such popular topics as film, television, cult fiction, history, and more. Freud was one of the giants of 20th century thought. His ideas have been hugely influential not only in psychology but in all the social sciences and the arts. This looks at Freud's life from his birth in 1856 to his death in Hampstead in 1939. Each of Freud's major works is summarized, his central ideas are explored, and controversies over his methods and practices are examined. Did he, as some recent critics have alleged, turn his back on evidence of genuine child abuse in 1890s Vienna and prefer instead to ascribe it to fantasy and wish fulfilment? What were the reasons behind his terrible quarrel with Carl Gustav Jung? Does his "talking cure" of psychoanalysis actually work?

Hewing to Experience
". . . The celebration of a point of view that Paul is uniquely equipped to communicate. . . . It provides an excellent treatment of the development and practice of a powerful poetic force in modern poetry today, showing the theoretic coherence of Emerson, Whitman, Pound, Williams, and particularly, Olson, as originators and practitioners of 'open' forms." --Thomas Merrill"This book is going to be of value to a number of different readers. For teachers and writers it is a resource and a stimulus for participating in an open poetics. On a utilitarian level it will help to respond to the recent
