From the battle fields of Vietnam and the Cold War, to the streets of the Middle East, the author takes you through many battles against terrorism. Each battle is inspired by actual events, and described in detail by the emotions of the soldiers involved. The events are supported by each character's point of view! From the USMC warriors, to the battle hardened enemy, we learn of their motivation and desire to continue their unfortunate struggle, in spite of the sociological and political conditions of the times. Marion weaves the desires of the people involved in the "peace movement" into the families of all concerned, with the tragic events of the war dictating the outcome. After Vietnam, and the end of the Cold War, the families seek to rebuild their lives, but find that a new and most terrifying era was just beginning.

Agency and Participation in Childhood and Youth presents new critical engagement in conceptualising the roles of youth agency and participation in education, development and the pursuit of social justice.

This unique book brings together scientific knowledge on this topic from East, West, and Southern Africa and describes the relationships between forests, woodlands, people and their livelihoods.
