Doors of Chaos, Volume 2

"The deep connection with nature’s capacity for healing is intrinsic to all life throughout history and across all cultures. In recent times there has been renewed interest from psychotherapists to work with clients in nature. In this exciting new book, arts therapists Ian Siddons Heginworth and Gary Nash have chosen a collection of essays on Environmental Arts Therapy introducing new fresh voices to the discipline. As the practice develops and each Environmental Arts therapist forges a way with diverse emerging perspectives, there is simultaneously a return to older traditions where the wise elders are taking people back into nature for healing and growth. Our flourishing community of Environmental Arts therapists describe and reflect on their various considered and creative approaches."
- Hephzibah Kaplan, Art Therapist and Director of the London Art Therapy Centre

"This book is an exciting addition to the growing literature on environmental arts therapies. The editors show how this movement has become an established form of arts therapy, drawing on previous work by others, and leading to their environmental arts therapy course, the first of its kind, based on the cycle of the year. The book also contains fresh voices taking environmental arts therapies into new contexts. At a time of global environmental crisis, this book paves the way to a new way of envisioning therapy, showing the benefits of taking people and therapy out into nature, or bringing nature into the therapy room. It reminds us of the importance of our environment –not an optional extra but the ground of our being."

- Dr Marian Liebmann, OBE, Art Therapist, teacher and author of art therapy books

The Wild Frontiers of the Heart

Environmental Arts Therapy

This engaging book offers a refreshingly different social practice approach to the analysis of leadership narratives. Drawing on sources ranging from online celebrity interviews to workplace interactions and research interviews, the strengths of the consistently interdisciplinary approach are evident in the stimulating contribution the book makes to current theory in many areas. The illuminating analyses draw on a wide variety of approaches including CA, CDA and positioning theory. This book will prove invaluable to students of discourse analysis, humour, and media studies, as well as to leadership and narrative scholars of course.　
Janet Holmes, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand　
With this delightful book, the authors have achieved exactly what they set out to do: bridge a critical gap between leadership researchers interested in discursive approaches to leadership and linguists, who are interested in studying leadership. This no ordinary bridge, however. The authors have created an elegantly designed, skilfully constructed link that will be a genuine pleasure to cross from whichever side you travel. I look forward to observing the impact that this book will have on richer understandings of leadership.

Brad Jackson, Griffith University, Australia

Covering an impressive range of perspectives and aspects with considerable analytical depth, this volume constitutes a significant and strong contribution to the currently emerging understanding of leadership as something constructed, established and accomplished in social interaction.

Knowing Your Superpowers Is the Key to Your Success in a Changing World: Building Personal Agility for More Success in Your Job and in Your Life

Camden Town 6. Klassenarbeitstrainer. Allgemeine Ausgabe für Gymnasien

‘‘Part memoir and lessons learned, part ‘how to’ guide. In Cracking the Innovation Code, Andy Wynn, provides a framework to identifying and resolving the ‘internal factors’ holding your organization back from realizing maximum revenue growth from R&D investments. A cross functional view is taken from idea generation through commercialization of new products. It will be the first book I hand to new leaders so that they can take a short cut to what took me 20 years to learn.’’ - Philip Clark, Global Technical Director, Automotive and Aerospace Division, 3M‘’Most books in this space only focus on the theories behind innovation, or how to generate new ideas, but don’t address the practical realities of how to actually ensure the continuous delivery of innovation in a business. This book states clearly what the challenges are and how to overcome them.’’ - Maurits van Tol, Chief Technology Officer, Johnson Matthey plc‘’The author’s latest book is once again a pragmatic reinforcement that successful businesses not only foster a culture of innovation, but also have strong processes and checks in place to ensure successful new product development and deployment. A great read.’’ - Dominic Greensmith, President of Advanced Technology Group, DPS Engineering."There are so many books on innovation out there it’s confusing where to start, Cracking the Innovation Code sweeps all that aside and tells you like it is, no fancy jargon, no ‘get rich quick’ schemes, just practical business truths. Refreshing to see some honesty in this genre for a change.’’ - Robert Park, Managing Director, TPPS Investment Casting Ltd"Whether you are a business leader or a technologist, Dr Wynn explains clearly how to navigate the complex world of innovation to generate real results." - Peter Davies, Chief Executive, James Lister & Sons Limited　

"Cracking the Innovation Code is a practical guide for the way companies should look at how to grow their business. This book is about putting all the theory you read about into practice, in the real world, and it works!’’ - Mike Murray, Chief Technology Officer, The Vita Group

"Tom Barnes has written a fascinating study of the unevenness of India’s renowned industrial transformation. He shows that the growth process has been pertly driven by the interests of global capital, and that it depends crucially on informal labour drawn from the masses of people trying to scrape a living. The result is geographically unbalanced and class biased. Barnes combines empirical evidence, direct observation and careful political economic judgment to produce a cogent and insightful analysis. It is a thoroughly engaging book which changes the way in which Indian economic development should be viewed."
Frank Stilwell, University of Sydney, Australia
"Thomas Barnes has written a highly stimulating book on informal labour and capitalist development in urban India today. It provides new insights into Indian informalisation processes through a wide-ranging analysis of informal labour and uneven and combined development. Its focus on the growth of informalised wage labour, as opposed to self-employment, will provoke debate. Anyone concerned with informal work, wage labour and the underlying global and regional processes in India will appreciate this book."
Jens Lerche, School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London, UK

"The large informal economy of India, which has grown even in formal sector during the period of liberalization, has been a complex phenomenon for the mainstream economic theories. This book, which covers the three large and growing though different kinds of urban regions in the country, offers new insights on this issue. While depicting the analysis on a longer term canvas, this work is grounded in both the existing social structure as well as the flexible global labour system. The book thus signifies an important endeavour towards understanding the functioning of contemporary labour processes in India."
