Harajuku Girls
I don't know a girl who hasn't been groped on a train. There's always someone trying to cop a feel. Might as well get paid for it. On Jingu Bridge in Tokyo, teenage girls dress in cosplay outfits for fun, fashion, and the fantasy of being someone else, but for Mari, Keiko and Yumi, their schooldays are over... In a race to escape from overbearing parents, stifling dead-end jobs and economic deprivation, they find their way to Kabukicho, a district of panty shops, love hotels and image clubs, where every aspect of the body and soul can be bought and sold. Only they can decide how far they're willing to go. As the three young women grow up and apart, they tread a dangerously fine line between empowerment and victimhood as they struggle to pursue their dreams, despite the obstacles that society and tradition put in their way. A fascinating and ambitious play about adolescence, independence and sexuality set in the colourful, fascinating world of Japanese cosplay and style, Harajuku Girls premiered at the Finborough Theatre, London, in February 2015.

Suitable for those new to paper embroidery as well as more experienced crafters, this book will excite and inspire anyone with a love of Japanese style and clean, simple design.
In Bloom
The natural rhythm of the changing seasons is reflected not only in how we see ourselves, but also in how we adorn ourselves: the warm comfort of a chunky sweater is traded in for a delicate cardigan; an airy wrap makes its triumphant return over billowing cowls and scarves. In Bloom follows this gradual unfolding to reveal 16 fresh patterns that revere the return of light layers and the ineffable ease of spring. Guided by the notion of efflorescence, small accents of lace on cardigans and tanks blossom fully into refined shawls and wraps while a skirt and headscarf round out the collection. As you look back on winter and ahead to summer, the In Bloom collection pauses to reflect on the beauty of transition and change with dreamy, easy-to-wear garments and accessories

Palliative Care for Chronic Cancer Patients in the Community
The new global cancer data suggests that the global burden has risen to 18.1 million new cases per year and 9.6 million cancer deaths per year. A number of factors appear to be driving this increase, in particular, a growing and aging global population and an increase of exposure to cancer risk factors linked to social and economic development. For rapidly-growing economies, the data suggests a shift from poverty- or infection-related cancers to those associated with lifestyles more typical in industrialized countries. There is still large geographical diversity in cancer occurrence and variations in the magnitude and profile of the disease between and within world regions. There are specifi...
