Описание: Since the success of "Philadelphia Here I Come!" in 1964, Brian Friel has written over 20 plays to critical acclaim, confirming him as one of the major dramatists of the 20th century. This collection of writing from 1964 to 1999 delves into his work and life before and after his landmark play.
Set in 1960s Auckland, amid the growing conflict in Vietnam. Monica Cook, a young exotic dancer, is hired along with her juvenile friend Diane Preston to entertain a group of visiting American and Vietnamese VIPs. Tragically, events get out of hand; when Monica witnesses the rape and murder of her friend, she narrowly escapes the same fate by hurling herself through a second-story window. The last thing the US wanted was some scandal that could jeopardise sensitive negotiations with New Zealand's entry into the Vietnam War. Therefore, the matter was put into the hands of The Eighth Floor (a covert cell within the CIA) to find and eliminate the girl.
Looking like she had just stepped out of a Renaissance masterpiece, Christopher Hunt, a twenty-year-old art student, was love-struck from the first moment he laid eyes on the beautiful life drawing model Monica Cook. However, he soon discovered that this angelic 19-year-old girl is caught up in a dark world of child abuse, prostitution, and murder. When Christopher learns a sinister assassin is hunting her, his carefree life is turned upside down, and he is propelled on a rollercoaster ride that will see him fighting for their very survival. The Eighth Floor is loosely based on actual events, and although it is set in New Zealand, the story it tells might well have arisen in any country. Drawn from the author's firsthand knowledge, It is a page-turning romantic thriller that reads like an action movie.

Описание: Penned with a compelling elegance and charm, the "Practical Art of Suicide Assessment" is brimming with clinical wisdom, enlightening case illustrations and a vibrant sense of compassion. Viewed as one of the classics in the field of mental health, and acclaimed by both beginning students and experienced clinicians alike, it describes in a step-by-step fashion exactly how to make a sound suicide assessment. Dr. Shea explores the causes of suicidal ideation as well as the nuances of risk actors, protective factors, and the complexities of the clinical formulation of risk. He skillfully integrates all of this information for the reader by using real-life case examples and addressing daunting clinical challenges head-on such as assessing suicide risk with clients coping with borderline personality disorder or psychotic process. In addition Dr. Shea brings to life the highly acclaimed interview strategy for uncovering suicidal ideation, planning, behavior and intent the "Chronological Assessment of Suicide Events (CASE Approach)". Dr. Shea, the originator of the CASE Approach, shows exactly how to creatively and flexibly use its innovative interviewing techniques to match the unique needs of every client. The CASE Approach has been described by the noted suicidologist and past President of the American Association of Suicidology, David Jobes, Ph.D. as follows: "The CASE Approach moves the clinician almost imperceptibly into the secret internal workings of the mind and soul of the patient tormented by suicidal ideation. I believe that the CASE Approach is a remarkable conceptual and clinical contribution to the field of suicidology. It should be taught to any front-line clinician. It has the power to meaningfully save lives." Dr. Shea concludes the book with a no-nonsense approach to documenting a suicide risk assessment that can both help to save a client's life as well as keep the clinician out of court. Respected across the globe, the Practical Art of Suicide Assessment has been translated into languages as diverse as French and Japanese. Mental Health Presses is pleased to re-issue this classic in contemporary suicide prevention (originally published in 2002).

Автор: Brian Christopher Jones Название: Democracy and Rule of Law in China`s Shadow ISBN: 1509949178 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781509949175 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 36950.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book provides detailed insight into some of the most contentious events occurring in jurisdictions operating within China’s vast shadow. Epic clashes between law and politics have become a regular fixture throughout the world, and no region has seen more of these than Asia. In some cases these conflicts have involved newfound democratic aspirations or democratic deepening, while in others it has arisen because of pushback against authoritarian or semi-authoritarian governments. Indeed, many of these clashes centre on or involve the region’s most powerful and controversial player: China. This book focuses on several of these critical struggles, examining how democracy and the rule of law play out in a number of jurisdictions highly influenced by China’s presence. Chapters provide insightful analysis on issues such as: major threats to the rule of law and attempts to uphold the principle, oath-taking controversies, foreign judges and the disparagement of the judiciary, unconstitutional and undemocratic provisions, changing ideas of representation, a right to democracy in international law, same-sex marriage rights, and the legal responses to civil disobedience in Taiwan and Hong Kong, among other topics. Ultimately, the book delivers a contemporary understanding of how democracy and the rule of law both complement and converge in this fascinating region.
