"I loved this book. I'm a new fan of Bugsy (from Below Deck) and due to this book I recently started following her on Instagram. The pictures in the book are beautiful as well as informative. I feel greatly inspired by Bugsy's eclectic extravagance. Bugsy lends an immense amount of time and energy bringing her creations to life and her boldness and free spirit are fascinating. Fantastic find for anyone wishing to create the perfect setting for any fun gathering. Truly a treasure to be enjoyed. I received this book from NetGalley for an honest review." ―Richelle Rodarte
"I've always been a fan of Bugsy and her tablescapes on Below Deck Mediterranean. I found the book to have great tips for decorating tables and I can't wait to use them when the pandemic is over and I'm able to have people over again! Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC of this book." ―Melissa S.
"I watched Below Deck and have seen the author on tv. I was excited for her to have written a book about what she is so great at!! The book begins with talking about how she became a part of a sailing crew. Throughout the book there are gorgeous pictures of the the author showing different parts of boats and tablescapes. I loved that she shows you step by step on how to come up with a theme and how to transport the guests into what it is. She gives step by step on how to fold napkins for different themes. The whole book has gorgeous pictures where you feel like you are right on the boat with her. I would recommend this book to anyone who would like to start doing table centerpieces, or having parties." ―Christine R.

The Art of Tablescaping

In this important book, Peter Tyler gives us a sophisticated and subtle narrative of the varied and ambiguous languages of the soul in philosophy, Christianity and psychoanalysis, from Plato and Augustine to Ludwig Wittgenstein and Edith Stein. He brings to this story both rigorous analysis and a deep sense of what he calls "the poetic wonder of the unknowing soul".

Psychoanalysis, Soul-Making and the Christian Tradition

The Pursuit of the Soul

"A compelling, original, subtle and important exploration of a major subject." - Richard English, author of Does Terrorism Work? A History

"With eloquence, Cassam helps us untangle our thoughts and communicates with a clarity and directness that is unexpected of philosophers and academics. If you want to sort out your thinking about extremism this is a must read." - Gabrielle Rifkind, Group Analyst and Conflict Mediator, author of The Psychology of Political Extremism

"This book is philosophy at its best. It is deeply empirically informed and supported by a large number of case studies. It shows the direct relevance of rigorous analytic thinking for empirical research and, perhaps even more importantly, for policy based on such research." - Rik Peels, VU University Amsterdam, The Netherlands

"Intellectually fascinating and engaging, this pathbreaking book achieves the difficult task of bridging the gap between students and more expert research-orientated readers. It shows that philosophy has much to offer in understanding the many dimensions of extremism." - Christopher Finlay, Durham University, UK

"A masterful blending of play therapy theories and techniques in make-believe play sessions. Thought-provoking and insightful!"


Charles Schaefer, Ph.D., Registered Play Therapy Supervisor, Co-Founder & Director Emeritus, The Association for Play Therapy, USA


"Integrative Play Therapy with Individuals, Families and Groups provides a comprehensive blueprint to guide both beginners and seasoned practitioners. Ariel methodically links concepts from systems, linguistic and play theory to create an innovative, integrated approach to diagnosis and treatment, the Diamond Model. The application of the model is illustrated though compelling and in-depth case examples in varying treatment formats. The practice of integrative play therapy is further exhibited by thought-provoking dialogues about the cases with an interdisciplinary team. The complexity of issues confronting practitioners today is daunting. Ariel’s book offers a theoretically grounded, methodical, and thorough guide to construct effective and playful interventions."


Professor Anne Stewart, Department of Graduate Psychology, James Madison University, Harrisonburg, Virginia, Member of the Association for Play Therapy Board of Directors, Past President of the Virginia Association for Play Therapy


"Once again, Dr. Ariel has challenged and articulated insights into our play therapy field. Words like preparatory moves, integration of family and individual therapy, interdisciplinary　approaches and collaborative supervision come alive in this, his most recent book. Such a pleasure in our times to hear from a clinician with wisdom, not just knowledge, but wisdom with respect to the entire child and his/her family."

“A touchingly simple story with a profound and poignant message of reassurance . . . that our loved ones live on in the most exquisite of ways." —Patrice Karst, bestselling author of The Invisible String
“This is a beautiful story about love, loss, healing, the role of a grandmother in her grandchild’s life, and how even in her death, her impact lives on for eternally. Children aged five to nine will cherish this thoughtful tale the most.” –Portland Book Review
"Losing someone we love is one of the hardest experiences we will have to go through. Books are a wonderful way to help children understand difficult topics like this in a safe space. The River of Birds, written by Libby Moore and illustrated by Michael Boardman, does a marvelous job of showing the wonderful memories that a grandma and grandchild share and the grief the child feels after his grandma passes away. Libby Moore says it beautifully in these lines: 'When a living thing dies, its body stops working. But its love is still here with us, in everything and everyone it has ever loved.' This heartfelt book reminds us that it's okay to feel sadness and grief, and that even though our loved one is no longer physically with us, their love remains with us forever.” —Joanna Rowland, author of The Memory Box: A Book About Grief 
"What a beautiful, important little book this is! Simply told and gloriously illustrated, The River of Birds shows grieving children that loss is universal, that memory is a balm, and that the burden of grief need not be carried alone. And it’s not just for children; as a recently bereaved grown-up, I found it immensely comforting." —Monica Wood, author of The One-in-a-Million Boy
The River of Birds, by Libby Moore, is a lovely book filled with poignant messages to be read with a grieving child. I love the use of drawings of birds (angel messengers in symbology) as a way to help children understand loss and to heal their hearts. This book shows that although people die, love continues. Kudos to Michael Boardman for his beautiful illustrations. Highly recommended." —Virginia A. Simpson, PhD, FT, founder of the Mourning Star Center for Grieving Children, and author of The Space Between: A Memoir of Mother-Daughter Love at the End of Life 
"We live in a culture that hides death away. No wonder we grow to be adults who fear it so. What if instead as children we learned and talked about death the way we do other facets of life? Libby Moore's book is a tender, honest story for children of all ages which gently normalizes death and grieving as part of the human experience.  It is a universal tale that will speak to all families."—Mary Harkins Becker, MD, Palliative Care Physician
"Libby Moore manages to both crack open and fill our hearts with this wondrous story of the life force, flowing through deed, word and love; continuing, always continuing. Sensitive watercolors perfectly compliment the narrative, a balm for the familiar ache of anyone who's lost someone dear."—Julie Zickefoose, author of Saving Jemima: Life and Love with a Hard-luck Jay

"If good character education is good education—and I agree with Marvin that it is—then you are holding in your hands a blueprint for good school design. Lucid, research-based, and practical—I recommend this to anyone who cares about the future of our children."
—Angela Duckworth, Rosa Lee and Egbert Chang Professor of Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, USA, and author of Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance

"In PRIMED for Character Education, Marvin Berkowitz unpacks character education in a way to understand our personal responsibility to the future of our societies: the diversity of youth who cross our paths along the K-12 corridor. Through multiple personal and professional examples, he clearly points out to adults the power of our personal presence upon others. Dr. Berkowitz brings decades of teaching and mentoring of K-12 leaders to the academic landscape, and in this book he offers proof that ‘Character education embraced and lived out lays the foundational requirements for creating a better world.’"
—Clifton L. Taulbert, President and Founder of The Freemount Corporation and author of Eight Habits of the Heart for Educators

"In my last endorsement of his writing, I wrote, ‘This is Berkowitz at his best.’ I was wrong. This is. The PRIMED framework is one of the most important developments in character education in a long time."
—Thomas Lickona, Director of the Center for the 4th and 5th Rs at SUNY Cortland, USA, and author of Character Matters and How to Raise Kind Kids

"Marvin Berkowitz has dedicated his life to the flourishing of young people and, in this most recent of books, provides a reliable guide on how to get ‘PRIMED for Character.’ Clear, thorough, and readable, this is a very accessible book written from long and tested experience. This book is a must for educators and parents and will stir debate on why character matters so that young people can flourish regardless of what life brings."
—Professor James Arthur OBE, Director of the Jubilee Centre for Character and Virtues at the University of Birmingham, UK

"Marvin Berkowitz is our world’s foremost character educator and his new book overflows with useful tools and spot-on ideas. PRIMED for Character Education is nothing short of an evidence-based roadmap for educators to help their students understand, care about, and practice the character strengths that will enable them to flourish in school, in the workplace, and as citizens."
—Arthur Schwartz, President of Character.org

"I believe that there are no silver bullets or shortcuts in character education. Educators, parents, and children must ‘do the work’ if we are to build a better world in which human goodness can flourish. Having said that, Marvin Berkowitz has spent decades breaking down the code of what this looks like in real, practical terms, and here we have the result. The PRIMED model strikes the difficult　balance between academic rigor and user-friendliness, and this book serves as a field guide for anyone in education who wants to make character education　happen.　Marvin's stories, sense of humor, and simple steps towards character have been transforming schools across the world."　 
—Henry May, CEO and Co-Founder of Coschool

"Based on his knowledge and experience, Marvin Berkowitz probably knows more than anyone about what works, and what doesn’t work, in character education at all grade levels. This book is an absolute treasure—a valuable resource for any educator who wants to bring out the best in our young people."
—Hal Urban, author of The Power of Good News

"Marvin Berkowitz has spent a lifetime studying and experimenting with best practices that promote what he calls ‘the flourishing of human goodness.’　 As a psychologist first concerned with enhancing adolescent moral development, he has evolved into the country’s premier character education advocate and spokesperson. The PRIMED model he developed grew out of 40 years of his academic investigations, his contacts with educators and thought-leaders throughout the world, and his practical experiences as the director of the gold standard in university-based character education leadership.　PRIMED for Character Education will become the model for excellence in morally based democratic education and should be widely read by all those responsible for the education of our children."
—Jacques Benninga, Professor of Education of California State University, Fresno, USA

"Marvin Berkowitz’s PRIMED model combines research, illustrated with solid examples and common sense, to illustrate and inform educators on how they can develop schools that promote excellence for all stakeholders. This book should be required reading for all educators and others who are passionate about how schools can change the lives of students as well as the adults who teach and love them." 
—Philip Fitch Vincent, Director of the Character Development Group

"PRIMED for Character Education will be a classic. A must-read for every educator, it is a treasure trove of big ideas about character and scores of strategies for principals and teachers. It’s an extraordinarily useful text because Marvin Berkowitz gives us the conceptual framework and practical tools to help our students become good people and productive citizens."
—Thomas R. Hoerr, Scholar in Residence at University of Missouri–St. Louis, USA, Emeritus Head of New City Schools, and author of Taking Social Emotional Learning Schoolwide

2020 Freeman Book Award Honorable Mention recipient in the Young Adult category!&#160;"While 'Tiananmen' calls up the famous image of a single citizen facing down a tank, Zhang&rsquo;s information-dense graphic memoir, cowritten with journalist Gombeaud, details the larger student-led movement for political reform behind the protest that culminated in the Chinese military killing hundreds, perhaps thousands, at Tiananmen Square."&#160;&#160;&mdash;Publishers Weekly"Artist Ameziane&rsquo;s noir-esque documentary style provides the ideal, dynamic complement to Zhang&rsquo;s memories. Together, the auspicious quartet bears witness to more-crucial-than-ever protest history." &mdash;Booklist"A&#160;gripping account of an&#160;event&#160;that the China&rsquo;s communist party has all but wiped from the history books...&#160;it is imperative to have cultural reference of oppression so that future generations never forget." &mdash;The Beat"The subject matter would probably appeal to high school students, as the power of youth movements has a timeless appeal. It's also a good read for adults with an interest in history and politics, as it is a valuable eyewitness narrative of one of the most significant events of our time."&#160;&mdash;ICv2"It teaches anybody, if they needed telling, how graphic novels can at times be the perfect format for portraying such deathly serious subjects with emotional sympathy yet factual detail. And it certainly shows what happened thirty years ago, in that famous concrete public area. The author's hopes of it being a suitable memorial have been superbly met." &mdash;The Bookbag
