Emotions and Virtues in Feature Writing
This book provides an important and original way of understanding how journalists use emotion to communicate to readers, posing the deceptively simple question, ‘how do journalists make us feel something when we read their work?’. Martin uses case-studies of award-winning magazine-style features to illuminate how some of the best writers of literary journalism give readers the gift of experiencing a range of perspectives and emotions in the telling of a single story. Part One of this book discusses the origins and development of narrative journalism and introduces a new theoretical framework, the Virtue Paradigm, and a new textual analysis tool, the Virtue Map. Part Two includes three case-studies of prize-winning journalism, demonstrating how the Virtue Paradigm and the Virtue Map provide fresh insight into narrative journalism and the ongoing conversation of what it means to live well together in community.
Jemmy Button
Inspired by the life of Jemmy Button - a native of Tierra del Fuego who was brought to England in the mid-1800s to be 'educated' and 'civilised' by Captain Robert FitzRoy - this book illustrates Jemmy's bizarre encounters and his return back home. Collaborating across continents, without a common language, Valerio's precision and Jennifer's primitive style have resulted in a story unlike any other. AGES: 4-7 years AUTHOR: Alix Barzelay has an MFA from Sarah Lawrence and teaches children creative writing. This is her first children's book. Jennifer Uman is a self-taught painter and illustrator. Her works have been in the New York Times and in publications throughout the world. This is her first book. Valerio Vidali is an Italian illustrator. His work has received notable recognition in competitions and exhibitions around the world. SELLING POINTS: * Winner of the fourth CJ Picture Book Award (Korea) * Templar debut of art style, reminiscent of Michael Foreman's 'The General ' * Based on a true story, offering insight into 19th century culture and attitudes * Hardback met with warm reviews
Child Protection
This exceptionally well-researched book's intention is to reveal what is really happening in our society and to spur people into action to turn this shameful and complex problem around so that abuse stops and healing can begin. It should be a compulsory handbook for all whose work involves children, especially in the legal system, all human services, schools, pre-schools and foster care. It covers all aspects of child abuse and neglect and presents recent case studies of acts of abuse and the ways they have been dealt with in recent times. It is books such as this that 'get the message out there' so that something is done in this supposedly enlightened age.

Guarani e Kaiowá: Modos de Existir e Produzir
O Volume 5 desta série abrange algumas das mais relevantes e atuais reflexões sobre a trajetória dos Guarani e Kaiowá em Mato Grosso do Sul. Apontando novas demandas teóricas e analíticas necessárias para dar conta de uma realidade socioespacial profundamente injusta e instável, traz a contribuição de autoras/es indígenas e não indígenas com formação em Geografia, História e Antropologia, em diferentes estágios de carreira universitária e com múltiplas perspectivas. A publicação é resultado de uma ampla rede de colaboração entre investigadoras/es de importantes centros de pesquisa no Brasil e está conectado com iniciativas semelhantes ao redor do mundo. O diálogo entre as/os autoras/es cobre uma ampla gama de temas, sobressaindo-se — independentemente de área de conhecimento e temática — o elemento espaço. O livro demonstra os Kaiowá e Guarani envolvidos em intensos processos de transformação, no esforço de compreender, situar e reverter expropriação territorial e marginalização político-espacial, assim como formar alianças com outros segmentos e grupos étnicos da classe trabalhadora.

Saying Yes to Life
'Ruth Valerio’s book is perfect for individuals and groups to think, reflect, pray and be challenged together.' JUSTIN WELBY, from the Foreword Saying Yes to Life lifts our focus from natural, everyday concerns to issues that are having an impact on millions of lives around the world. As people made in the image of God, we are entrusted to look after what he has created: to share in God’s joy and ingenuity in making a difference for good. Ruth Valerio imaginatively draws on the Days of Creation (Genesis 1) as she relates themes of light, water, land, the seasons, other creatures, humankind, Sabbath rest and resurrection hope to matters of environmental, ethical and social concern.
