The Cloud
The Cloud is the debut collection of short stories for adults by Welsh author Lee Holland. Having previously written for children, this book represents a change in direction for the author. Included in The Cloud are 9 tales, filled with dark humour and misery. Whilst the cover may be cutesy, the content within is most definitely not!

Can a man dressed as a zebra put things right? William - William is a lonely old man. Does he eat children to keep himself looking young? Love Bites - When women no...
Catholic Schools and the Common Good
The authors found that Catholic schools have an independent effect on achievement, especially in reducing disparities between disadvantaged and privileged students. Today’s Catholic school, they show, is informed by a Dewey-like vision of the school as a community committed to democratic education and the common good of all students.
Passionate Medicine
Passionate Medicine is a compelling record of the journeys of five doctors and two veterinary surgeons from conventional medicine to homeopathy. In search of truth and healing in their profession, the contributors challenge the shortcomings of conventional medical training and methods, in particular the notion that effective clinicians should be objective and emotionally detached. Their insightful autobiographical stories clearly demonstrate the cost of the `dehumanising' principle to the medical profession and argue for a more holistic, caring model that regards self-knowledge, passion and the ability to create successful practitioner-patient relationships as central to the healing process. The contributors make a convincing case for the inherent ability of people to heal themselves and for the changing role of the clinician from expert to facilitator. This book is a thoughtful and illuminating consideration of the relationship between the medical profession and alternative therapies, and will prove compelling reading for all trainee and practising medical professionals.

The Guardians
Cassie isn't your typical underdog. She'd found a way to navigate high school and become the popular girl. The only thing that matters now is the reality she's created for herself, until the day she meets "him". How could she meet something she didn't believe existed? Angels aren't real. Or are they? A challenge is laid before her and six misfit teens. Can they become sword-wielding warriors of the Most High? Can the light of God's love change Cassie's mean-girl spirit and biting sarcasm into words of life? And if it can, will she let it?

Devotional Reflections on the Sermon on the Mount
The Sermon on the Mount, as recorded in the Gospel of Matthew, is the superlative body of religious statements in all literature. It’s the pinnacle substance of the teachings of Jesus, with the Beatitudes being the centerpiece of the discourse. It’s revered for the eloquent and inspiring way it introduces the means to happiness and purpose in life. However, there’s much more to the sermon than inspiration and beauty of expression. In Devotional Reflections on the Sermon on the Mount, author Dr. Charles Lee Holland Jr. offers an interpretation of one of the best-loved and best-known portions of the New Testament. In this devotional, he doesn’t provide a verse-by-verse analysis, but he...
