Treating Traumatized Children
Listening to a small child describe a parent's murder can tax the most seasoned professional. Cases of physical and sexual abuse where trauma was deliberately inflicted can particularly challenge a practitioner's defenses.Treating Traumatized Children is the first handbook to provide specific guidance and tools for treating children who have been traumatized by physical and sexual abuse, disaster, divorce, or witnessing violent events. This book will provide helping professionals with a clear blueprint for assessing the impact of trauma and developing specific treatment plans.Beverly James, a specialist in evaluating and treating traumatized children, outlines creative exercises and techniques that will enable clinicians to join with children in slowly and carefully reviewing their experiences and helping them understand and accept their feelings related to the trauma. Art, play, and drama techniques, among others, are presented in a sophisticated yet straightforward style, useful to clinicians with specialized training in such techniques or those using them for the first time.

For the Love of the Game
Exploring the complex issues of class and gender relations, community building and sport reform, this work analyses how local culture shapes the meanings of sport and examines the tensions that exist when athletes and sports teams become important symbols for the community. Nancy Bouchier traces the increasing importance of amateur sport to Woodstock and Ingersoll, two small nineteenth-century Ontario towns, revealing its intricate ties to urban boosterism and middle-class culture. Focusing on civic holiday celebrations, the establishment of organized clubs for cricket, baseball, and lacrosse, and the rise of spirited urban sports rivalries, Bouchier shows that small town interest in sports was much more than a pale imitation of the sporting life of Canada's major urban centres.

Touching Distance
Double Olympic gold-medal winner and endurance athlete, James Cracknell. His story before and after his life-changing accident. James Cracknell has rowed across the Atlantic, competed in the Race to the South Pole, and was the highest placed Britain ever in the epic Marathon Des Sables. He was on track to be one of the greatest endurance athletes our country has known. But it was one challenge in 2010 - a gruelling cycling race across the USA that nearly saw it all slip away. Whilst on his bike, the wing mirror of a petrol tanker smashed into the back of his head at high speed, causing severe frontal lobe damage. The doctors weren't sure if James would recover and, if he did, whether he would ever be the same again. Written with his wife, Beverley, this is an inspirational and powerful account of James's fight back to become the man he once was. 'A rower's extraordinary story is movingly told.' Daily Telegraph 'The couple write with an unflinching candour that is, by turn, comic and deeply moving.' Hello!
