How Not to Raise a Child
Elner is a lonely child, raised in a remote valley in postwar North East England, mainly by paternal grandparents. Her mother, a young Italian woman, finds living in with the paternal grandparents difficult. Her father, suffering from post-traumatic stress disorders, seeks his lost adolescence with a motorcycle gang. The parents start divorce proceedings as Elner starts school, aged four. Just as Elner begins to feel accepted and befriended, problems over family finances cause her grandparents to move, with her grandmother taking work as a cook-caretaker in a tied cottage home. Elner is made to change schools, wasting a yearaEUR(tm)s progress and having problems making new friends. Her father finds work away from home, returning to his girlfriend at weekends. When Elner is eleven, her father and stepmother marry and move away. Elner passes her eleven-plus exam and enters a large highly competitive school of a thousand students aged eleven to eighteen. Her grandfather dies, and in a role reversal, she becomes her grandmotheraEUR(tm)s carer.

To open the pages of a book by Peter Bowes is to enter a quintessentially Australian world, but one that is also universal. We all know these people, see them on the streets, meet them, avoid them, want to know more about them. Bowes writes without judging, and by drawing us in to see others' lives from the inside, we, too, are less inclined to judge.

There is personal loss here, too, promises made to a dying father in What's Bes...

Professionals striving for accident reduction must deal with systems in which both technical and human elements play equal and complementary roles. However, many of the existing techniques in ergonomics and risk management concentrate on plant and technical issues and downplay human factors and "subjectivity." Safety Management: A Qualitative Systems Approach describes a body of theories and data that addresses safety by drawing on systems theory and applied psychology, stressing the importance of human activity within systems. It explains in detail the central roles of social consensus and reliability and the nature of verbal reports and functional discourse. This text presents a new approa...
