Maplewood
The images in this impressive collection date back to 1860 and the beginnings of Maplewood. Enhanced by the informative text of local historians John Bausmith and Howard Wiseman, Maplewood provides a fascinating journey through the history of this New Jersey community. When the first train station was built in Maplewood in 1860, city dwellers began to leave New York for this picturesque, suburban town. The community offered great schools, great transportation, and beautiful surroundings. The area became home to Asher Brown Durand, the father of American landscape painting, and Seth Boyden, who was called "one of America's greatest inventors" by Thomas Edison. Theodore Roosevelt spent summers at his uncle's Maplewood estate and enjoyed the clear mountain air.

Life After Encephalitis
Encephalitis is a devastating condition whose impact upon people should not be underestimated. It robs people of abilities most of us take for granted, it leaves people without their loved ones, and even in those families where the person affected survives the person they once knew can be dramatically changed. Life After Encephalitis provides a unique insight into the experiences of those affected by encephalitis, sharing the rich, insightful, and often powerful, narratives of survivors and family members. It shows how listening to patient and family narratives can help us to understand how they make sense of what has happened to them, and also help professionals better understand and engage with them in practice. The book will also be useful for considering narratives associated with brain injuries from other causes, for example traumatic brain injury. Life After Encephalitis will appeal to a wide range of professionals working in rehabilitation settings, and also to and survivors of encephalitis, their families, and carers.
