All the Lonely People
'Empathetic, enlightening, deeply human' - Michael Harris, author of Solitude An intimate portrait of loneliness, All the Lonely People sees psychologist Dr Sam Carr collect hours of conversations with people young and old, including single parents, carers, teenagers and the bereaved – all shared over countless cups of tea. In stories of love and loss, of trauma and hope, told from care homes, living rooms, classrooms and kitchens, Carr discovers that while each of their stories is utterly unique, they are all born out of the same desire for human connection. As Carr interweaves these touching and powerful tales with his own personal narrative, he opens a window onto the inner lives of regular people – the forgotten, misplaced or misjudged – who all feel isolated in some way. Sparking a profound conversation about a universal emotion, which may simply be an inevitable part of life in an increasingly disjointed world, he questions what we can do to build stronger human relationships, and to be a part of something bigger than ourselves.
Attachment in Sport, Exercise and Wellness
Attachment theory is a concept well known to ‘mainstream’ psychologists, informing the literature in areas as diverse as psychodynamics, developmental psychology, social psychology and counselling. This important new book is the first to demonstrate the relevance of attachment theory to the psychology of sport, exercise and wellness, opening up important new avenues for research and professional practice. In this book, author Sam Carr explains that attachment theory can help us to better understand well established themes and processes in sport and exercise, including motivation, social relationships, cognitive models of coping, and group processes. By introducing the core elements of attachment theory and mapping out those areas in which it can inform the knowledge and practice of psychologists working in sport, exercise and wellness, this book represents an innovative and important contribution to the psychological literature.
Murder on a Seagoing Tug
When the body of a murdered sailor is found floating in New York Harbor, CPO Jack McCain, a criminal investigator, is ordered aboard the USS Lakota to gather evidence on why and who would have wanted the sailor dead. Instead of a routine assignment, McCain finds himself in a Navy he never dreamed possible. He is appalled at the unkempt appearance of the ship, the unmilitary bearing of most of the crew, and most of all, the CO: Ross Adams. On the other hand, in spite of a failed mutiny attempt, he believes the XO, Daniel Posey, has the makings of an outstanding young naval officer. McCains contempt heightens when he learns that Adamss wife in Norfolk and girlfriend in Bayonne are both pregnant. And to top it off, he discovers that several crew members have taken out now-delinquent personal loans for Adams.
