Book Description
Jaws, movie, or book. However, one came to the story. It shaped a generation of readers and moviegoers in the year of releases and after. Coming to the book first or the book via the movie. Steven Spielberg and Peter Benchley created a phenomenon that broke records. Bums on seats, book sales, the story of a shark, a big one, and the people on the island of Amity swept the world. In 1975, I was a small boy coming to this movie from growing up in a small market town called Wimborne. Wednesday afternoon, half day opening for the shops, everything shut on Sunday, apart from lunchtime pubs and petrol stations open. Back then, petrol stations just sold fuel and cigarettes.

Book Description
The 17th Century Civil Wars of The Three Kingdoms had caused a rift across the Country. After three years of pillage, plunder and seen unlawful taxation following the King raising his standard in 1642, and a war now between Parliament and King, the generality of the south and west of England as well as other parts of this country, decided that they had tasted enough of the "miseries of this unnatural intestine war." This association of the generality came to be known as Clubmen "The third sort, greater than either of the other, both in fortune and in number." Clarendon "This third party hath peeped, for many months in many corners, they will have an army without a king, a lord or a gentleman almost" Parliamentary Newspaper A look at a description of neutralism chose by those willingly and then how that neutralism is seen by opposing warring parties changed as the Civil War grew ever longer. The Clubmen in their neutral stance by 1645 had forced the Parliamentary and Kings armies to deal with the grievances of The Clubmen. The importance of The Clubmen as an association historically and their knock-on effect passes down the ages in the form of petition, organisation and community.

Book Description
Clinical work with difficult populations requires the sharpest, most effective set of clinical tools a clinician can acquire. Most importantly, it requires clinical tools that are direct, speaks a therapeutic language, but also includes no nonsense talk that the population can relate to, and understand. These attributes are exactly what Dr. O’Banye’s Group, Individual and Family Clinical Therapy Cards offers both the client and the clinician. Dr. O’Banye’s Group, Individual and Family Clinical Therapy Cards contains 37 cards and a companion manual. The clinical cards direct and assist the client to open up about many difficult topics. The cards contain questions clinicians have difficulty formulating. These questions explore the roots of the clients’ issues, as well as their impact, in the deeper levels of the individual's mind, body and spirit. Cards are typically used by having clients read and address the DIRECTIVE group or individual sessions. This then leads to clinical discussion about the issue prompted by the card. Each issue is related to a particular facet of treatment, and expected to provide the client with insight or coping skills to achieve therapeutic progress, in their area of treatment. After processing the therapeutic prompt, clients can read the TASK, which explains how their DIRECTIVE connected to treatment. A Manual is included with each set. The manual explains the theory and etiology of each Therapy Card topic from a client-centered systems approach. This information is very approachable and can be used to psychoeducate clients about the issues they are experiencing. The manuals also give step-by-step instruction in how to use the Therapy Cards during session, ways to present the cards, and how to integrate the cards into treatment. The manual provides content for each card that can be used by the therapist as follow-up information for clients, making Therapy Cards a truly out-of-the-box product that can be used by an clinician. Clinicians appreciate Therapy Cards because they help establish therapeutic rapport, create positive associations with processing therapeutic issues, and help clients make progress in treatment. At the end, clinicians can list the goal given on each card in the therapy notes for each client, to document the clinical intervention used. Therapy Cards can be used in individual, group, or family settings.

Book Description
Lady of the Cards documents the relationship of publisher and artist Rosita Fanto and Richard Ellmann, famed biographer of W. B.Yeats, James Joyce, and Oscar Wilde. Fanto describes their meetings in Monaco, London, Oxford, and New York, the growth of their friendship, its flirtations with romance, and the developing tensions with Ellmann’s family, who imagined that the artist and the writer had become lovers. It chronicles the Ellmann-Fanto publication of the Oscar Wilde Playing Cards, the course of Ellmann’s debilitating illness—Lou Gehrig’s Disease—his death and its legal and emotional consequences, focusing on his close relationship with “Rosita”(Fanto) at the end of his life. The memoir written in the form of a novel explores private archives and summons true identities. Intellectually and emotionally stimulating, Lady of the Cards is a sensitive and rich description of that delicious frisson of excitement which occurs between two people walking along the edge of an emotional cliff. Merlin Holland, author of The Wilde Album and Oscar Wilde, a Life in Letters Book Review. A platonic midlife romance strikes creative sparks in this winsome roman á clef. Fanto, a publisher and artist, knew Richard Ellmann, acclaimed biographer of James Joyce and Oscar Wilde, for several years before his death in 1987; the two had collaborated on the creation of a line of arty Wilde-themed playing cards. In Fanto’s fictionalized version of their relationship, they are also soul mates. Nearing 70, Dick Ellmann is a rumpled, warmhearted American scholar, devoted to caring for his invalid wife Mary. Rosita, radiating in all directions from her home in Monte Carlo, is a middle-aged jet-setter who can’t eat dinner in Manhattan without Andy Warhol dropping by her table. But she’s also smart, spontaneous, and a devotee of the l’acte gratuit, the hidden gesture of uncompensated kindness. (She meets Dick while helping a friend auction off some Joyce letters.) A professional connoisseur of fascinating lives, Dick savors Rosita’s colorful stories of growing up in a wealthy Rumanian family, wartime exile in Brazil, a brother’s assassination, and her adventurous encounters with the rich and famous—from Salvador Dali to Orson Welles. In turn, Dick shares his subtle insights into the psyches and geniuses of writers and poets. Their affection grows but is stymied by Dick’s dutifulness toward Mary. It sustains itself on sporadic intercontinental visits, longing letters and hesitant glances full of unspoken desire. A consummation of a kind occurs when Rosita proposes the playing-card project to complement Dick’s soon-to-be-completed Wilde biography, but the aesthetic and intellectual glow of their collaboration darkens as Dick slowly succumbs to Lou Gehrig’s disease. Fanto fills the narrative with risqué witticisms and piquant sketches of the glitterati, but her breezy, stylish prose still conveys the passion and pathos of an attraction that seems all the more intense for being so tightly constrained. A vibrant story of late-blooming love.—Kirkus Discoveries

Book Description
Daniel is a smart, young man of humble origins, who has been beaten down by his tough childhood in the mining basins of northeastern Spain. Unexpectedly, he embarks on an unwitting journey of discovery and personal growth that will bring him up-close to the best and worst of humanity. His interactions with a cast of secondary characters will shape him, little by little, until he becomes a new man who takes control of his life and goes down an unexpected and morally questionable path. All In is a fantastic choral story, full of rich characters who follow their own personal descents to hell in a world of extremes where nothing is what it seems. Love, hatred, passion, anger, fear; all these feelings have a place in this story of revenge, which forces readers to continually rethink their positions about the moral dilemmas at every step.

Book Description
A journalist's obsession brings her to a remote island off the California coast, home to the world's most mysterious and fearsome predators--and the strange band of surfer-scientists who follow them Susan Casey was in her living room when she first saw the great white sharks of the Farallon Islands, their dark fins swirling around a small motorboat in a documentary. These sharks were the alphas among alphas, some longer than twenty feet, and there were too many to count; even more incredible, this congregation was taking place just twenty-seven miles off the coast of San Francisco. In a matter of months, Casey was being hoisted out of the early-winter swells on a crane, up a cliff face to the barren surface of Southeast Farallon Island-dubbed by sailors in the 1850s the "devil's teeth." There she joined Scot Anderson and Peter Pyle, the two biologists who bunk down during shark season each fall in the island's one habitable building, a haunted, 135-year-old house spackled with lichen and gull guano. Two days later, she got her first glimpse of the famous, terrifying jaws up close and she was instantly hooked; her fascination soon yielded to obsession-and an invitation to return for a full season. But as Casey readied herself for the eight-week stint, she had no way of preparing for what she would find among the dangerous, forgotten islands that have banished every campaign for civilization in the past two hundred years. The Devil's Teeth is a vivid dispatch from an otherworldly outpost, a story of crossing the boundary between society and an untamed place where humans are neither wanted nor needed.
