Brain, Attachment, Personality
This book is intended as an inspiration and as an introduction to what Susan Hart has called neuroaffective developmental psychology. As an underlying theme throughout the book, she seeks to emphasize the importance of attachment for the formation of personality in all its diversity. This book presents a merger of systems that are not normally brought together in a structured psychodynamic context. Thus it operates on three levels: a neurobiological level, an intrapsychological level, and an interpersonal level. It also focuses on the brain structures that are essential for the formation of relationships, personality development, and emotions. It attempts to provide an understanding of the way that the uniquely human nervous system develops capacities for empathy, mentalization, and reflection that enable us to address such aspects as: past and present, interpersonal relations, ethics, art, and aesthetics. Susan Hart has endeavoured to make the text meaningful and comprehensible in order to make the topic interesting and inspiring to the reader, and to spark an interest in further studies.
Hell Is Not a Place; It's a Time
Susan Hart Snyder doesn't sleep very well."It's those darn hamsters endlessly spinning the wheels in my brain. On and on they run, their tiny paws racing, their itty-bitty tongues flapping, their pea brains leading them down the circular path to nowhere."In this collection, the title essay "Hell is Not a Place; It's a Time" is a metaphorical reassurance to those who also happen to have their own hamsters scratching around in their brains that they are not the only ones who have raised sweating the small stuff to an art form.In "The Great Thing about Women Is..." and "You Have the Right to Bare Arms" Susan takes a humorous look at her membership in the female tribe. "Everyone Gets a Hall Pass" and "Living Life Every, Every Minute examine lessons generated by her experiences as a teacher. In "What If" and "No Fair" she explores the often poignant and always rocky ground of life's middle ages.For those of you interested in joining Susan's therapy group, the meeting time is 2:30 AM. She hopes to see you there.
Finding Harmony
Living, loving, and working in Los Angeles, thirty-three-year-old Sydney Roberts is struggling against the confining security of sameness. The only solution she can settle on is change-of the life-altering variety-and so, setting her sights on New York City, she breaks up with her boyfriend, sells her belongings, and packs a few essentials into a motorhome. But just a few days into her cross-country jaunt, her beast of a vehicle breaks down and she's forced to bide her time in the strange town of Harmony, Utah, while the local slow-as-molasses mechanic repairs it. But while Harmony may be small, Sydney quickly discovers it's brimming with drama, much of which seems tied to the neighboring polygamists. From a cold case involving two missing girls from the polygamist compound to an unexpected romantic encounter with a strikingly sexy rancher, Finding Harmony tells a truly unique tale of love, laughter, courage, and perseverance. Introducing a vivid cast of characters whose unforgettable stories weave together to create a plot that constantly surprises, you'll feel like a Dusty's Diner regular by the time you read the last page.
Learning Without Limits
This book explores ways of teaching that are free from determinist beliefs about ability.

Doing Practitioner Research Differently
Doing Practitioner Research Differently encourages those embarking on practitioner research to consider the validity of innovative methods and styles of reporting. The book looks at three methods of enquiry and reporting - visualisation, conversation and fictional writing. Using practitioners' own accounts and research reports as case studies, this book explores the reasons why some practitioners reject the traditional research methods. It looks at the challenges faced by these practitioners and the conditions in higher education that encourage or inhibit innovative practitioner research. The case studies used illustrate that there are modes of enquiry and reporting that can foster the development of professional thinking and practice.
Beyond Special Needs
'Susan Hart’s book is a welcome relief from the prescriptive empiricism of much current writing on how to respond to the difficulties in learning experienced by many children and young people. The detail of the sustained analysis is also in marked contrast to the superficial summarising that often passes for critique' - Support for Learning 'The author places a refreshing emphasis upon the dynamic, interactional nature of learning and teaching, reminding us of the need to recognize the active part played by all pupils in shaping their own learning, which is mediated through the agendas which they bring to bear on classroom activities and which may be quite different from those of their teachers' - Intern
