Far too often, children and youth experience trauma, from rare events such as mass shootings, terrorism attacks, and school lockdowns, to very common occurrences such as bullying, exposure to drugs and alcohol, or various mental health issues. They can experience these events both directly and indirectly (from surfing the internet, watching television, or through their friends). Our children spend a large portion of their day at school interacting with other students, teachers, and school personnel, where these topics are raised and discussed. This edited volume addresses how our teachers and school personnel can help students deal with these potentially traumatic events to reach the most po...
ARE YOU TIRED OF PUTTING YOURSELF LAST? Women have been socialized to put the well-being of others first. The belief that we need to be there for everyone but ourselves can and does wreak havoc on our health and well-being and can make us lose touch with what actually excites and fulfils us. Feeling somewhat empty and directionless, we may be wondering, “Is this all there is?” In Is This All There Is?

The lively, insider story of the rise and rise of New Zealand's most successful logistics company. This is the story of a company built on the belief that with passion anything is possible. As they say at Mainfreight, 'Go anywhere as long as it is forward'. Mainfreight was founded in 1977 by the visionary Bruce Plested, who set out to make the company a family, a team, where everyone has a share in the riches and where the word 'management' is banned.

Why spend time preparing figures that are invariably out of date before the ink is dry? Just make more than la...
