All About Love reveals what causes a polarized society, and how to heal the divisions that cause suffering. Here is the truth about love, and inspiration to help us instill caring, compassion, and strength in our homes, schools, and workplaces. œThe word ˜love is most often defined as a noun, yet we would all love better if we used it as a verb,ù writes bell hooks as she comes out fighting and on fire in All About Love. Here, at her most provocative and intensely personal, renowned scholar, cultural critic and feminist bell hooks offers a proactive new ethic for a society bereft with lovelessness--not the lack of romance, but the lack of care, compassion, and unity. People are divided, she declares, by societys failure to provide a model for learning to love. As bell hooks uses her incisive mind to explore the question œWhat is loveù her answers strike at both the mind and heart. Razing the cultural paradigm that the ideal love is infused with sex and desire, she provides a new path to love that is sacred, redemptive, and healing for individuals and for a nation. The Utne Reader declared bell hooks one of the œ100 Visionaries Who Can Change Your Life.ù All About Love is a powerful, timely affirmation of just how profoundly her revelations can change hearts and minds for the better.","brand":"HARPER Entertainment Services","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40827558428760,"sku":"9780060959470","price":28.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/8343\/1000\/files\/9780060959470_1.jpg?v=1759207582"},{"product_id":"freedom-only-freedom-the-prison-writings-of-behrouz-boochani","title":"Freedom, Only Freedom: The Prison Writings of Behrouz Boochani","description":"\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e.cs4639DCB{11pt;font-weight:normal;color:#000000;font-style:italic;Calibri;} .cs3388614{text-align:left;margin:0pt 0pt 10pt 0pt;line-height:1.15;text-indent:0pt} .cs95B300B{11pt;font-weight:normal;color:#000000;font-style:normal;Calibri;}\u003c\/style\u003e\r\n\t\r\n\t\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003eOver six years of imprisonment in Australia's offshore migrant detention centre, the Kurdish-Iranian journalist and writer Behrouz Boochani bore personal witness to the suffering and degradation inflicted on him and his fellow refugees, culminating eventually in his prize-winning book \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs4639DCB\"\u003eNo Friend but the Mountains\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e.

This book takes an innovative approach to using narrative therapy in counseling people who have been subject to childhood sexual abuse.Reclaiming Lives from Sexual Violence presents an illustrative case study of the authors, Tim the therapist in consultation with Dale the client, who was sexually abused as a child by a clergy member. The book is unique in documenting their therapeutic work using transcripts taken directly from their sessions together. This narrative approach invites the reader to consider different ways of engaging in therapy in order to challenge the dominant social discourses around masculinity and shame.Looking at shame from a position of value awareness rather than a deficit perspective, this book extends counseling to consider the individual experience as political and one that must be shared outside the one-to-one therapy environment. This will be an essential resource for beginning or established therapists and practitioners working with clients who have been victims of sexual violence.Tim Donovan is a registered mental health social worker, an experienced practitioner passionate about assisting people in living their lives in their preferred way. With graduate qualifications in social work and narrative therapy, Tim is committed to person-centered practice in supporting individuals, families and groups who have experienced acts of oppression.Dale Johns is a survivor of childhood sexual violence who has devoted his life to Pastoral Care and Advocacy, working with the lonely, homeless and drug affected. Dale hopes his story brings freedom to other survivors through gaining a deeper understanding of shame, and teaching mental health professionals showing care and compassion is a vital component of effective counseling.","brand":"Taylor and Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40827560624216,"sku":"9781032188898","price":53.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/8343\/1000\/files\/9781032188898_1.jpg?v=1747471413"},{"product_id":"the-boy-who-was-raised-as-a-dog-3rd-edition-and-other-stori-es-from-a-child-psychiatrists-notebook-what-traumatized-c","title":"The Boy Who Was Raised as a Dog 3rd Edition And Other Stori- es from a Child Psychiatrist's Notebook--What Traumatized C","description":"In this instant classic of developmental psychology, a  renowned psychiatrist examines the effect that trauma can have on a  child, reveals how PTSD impacts the developing mind, and outlines the  path to recovery.What happens  when a young brain is traumatized? How does terror, abuse, or disaster  affect a childs mind ” and how can that mind recover? Child  psychiatrist Dr. Bruce D. Perry has helped children faced with  unimaginable horror: genocide survivors, murder witnesses, kidnapped  teenagers, and victims of family violence.In The Boy Who Was Raised as a Dog, Dr. Perry tells their stories of trauma and transformation through the  lens of science, revealing the brains astonishing capacity for healing. Deftly combining unforgettable case histories with his own  compassionate, insightful strategies for rehabilitation, Perry explains  what exactly happens to the brain when a child is exposed to extreme  stress ” and reveals the unexpected measures that can be taken to ease a childs pain and help him grow into a healthy adult. As a senior fellow at the Child Trauma Academy, Dr. Perry and his clinical group worked with hundreds who endured severe childhood neglect and  abuse with incredible resilience and strength. Through the stories of  children who recover ” physically, mentally, and emotionally ” from the  most devastating circumstances, Perry shows how simple things like  surroundings, affection, language, and touch can deeply impact the  developing brain, for better or for worse. In this deeply informed and  moving book, Bruce Perry dramatically demonstrates that only when we  understand the science of the mind can we hope to heal the spirit of  even the most wounded child.","brand":"Alliance Distribution Services","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40827560886360,"sku":"9780465094455","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/8343\/1000\/files\/9780465094455_1.jpg?v=1750310632"},{"product_id":"the-daily-stoic-366-meditations-on-wisdom-perseverance-and-the-art-of-living-by-ryan-holiday-and-stephen-hanselman","title":"The Daily Stoic 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living by Ryan Holiday and Stephen Hanselman","description":"\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e.cs4639DCB{11pt;font-weight:normal;color:#000000;font-style:italic;Calibri;} .cs3388614{text-align:left;margin:0pt 0pt 10pt 0pt;line-height:1.15;text-indent:0pt} .cs95B300B{11pt;font-weight:normal;color:#000000;font-style:normal;Calibri;}\u003c\/style\u003e\r\n\t\r\n\t\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e'No role is so well suited to philosophy as the one you happen to be in right now.' - Marcus Aurelius\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Stoics' unique blend of practicality and wisdom has been inspiring the most successful among us for centuries, from Roman Emperors to Barack Obama, and most recently via Ryan Holiday's bestselling \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs4639DCB\"\u003eThe Obstacle is the Way\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e.

You take the Princes Highway past Geelong, and keep going west in the direction of Colac. Late in August 2006, soon after I had watched a magistrate commit Robert Farquharson to stand trial before a jury on three charges of murder, I headed out that way on a Sunday morning, across the great volcanic plain.On the evening of 4 September 2005, Father's Day, Robert Farquharson, a separated husband, was driving his three sons home to their mother, Cindy, when his car left the road and plunged into a dam. The boys, aged ten, seven and two, drowned. Was this an act of revenge or a tragic accident? The court case became Helen Garner's obsession. She followed it on its protracted course until the final verdict.In this utterly compelling book, Helen Garner tells the story of a man and his broken life. She presents the theatre of the courtroom with its actors and audience - all gathered to witness to the truth - players in the extraordinary and unpredictable drama of the quest for justice.This House of Grief is a heartbreaking and unputdownable book by one of Australia's most admired writers","brand":"TEXT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40827581005912,"sku":"9781925240689","price":24.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/8343\/1000\/files\/9781925240689_1.jpg?v=1754191715"},{"product_id":"indigenous-education-in-australia-learning-and-teaching-for-deadly-futures","title":"Indigenous Education in Australia edited by Marnee Shay and Rhonda Oliver","description":"This is an essential, practical resource for pre- and in-service educators on creating contexts for success for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.

As Stanner writes in his introduction to the 1963 collection, 'I thought I should take Aboriginal religion as significant in its own right and make it the primary subject of study, rather than study it, as was done so often in the past, mainly to discover the extent to which it expressed or reflected facts and preoccupations of the social order'.

Remote Freedoms explores the contradictions and tensions of localized human rights work in very remote Indigenous communities. Based on field research with Anangu of Central Australia, this book  investigates how universal human rights are understood, practiced,  negotiated, and challenged in concert and in conflict with Indigenous  rights. Moving between communities, government, regional NGOs, and  international UN forums, Sarah E. Holcombe addresses how the notion of  rights plays out within the distinctive and ambivalent sociopolitical  context of Australia, and focusing specifically on Indigenous women and  their experiences of violence. Can the secular modern rights-bearer  accommodate the ideals of the relational, spiritual Anangu person?  Engaging in a translation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights  into the local Pintupi-Luritja vernacular and observing various  Indigenous interactions with law enforcement and domestic violence  outreach programs, Holcombe offers new insights into our understanding  of how the global rights discourse is circulated and understood within  Indigenous cultures. She reveals how, in the postcolonial Australian  context, human rights are double-edged: they enforce assimilation to a  neoliberal social order at the same time that they empower and  enfranchise the Indigenous citizen as a political actor. Remote Freedoms writes Australia's Indigenous peoples into the international debate on localizing rights in multicultural terms.Sarah E. Holcombe is Senior Research Fellow at the University of Queensland and a Visiting Fellow at the Australian National University.","brand":"ABOUT3","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40827606040664,"sku":"9781503606470","price":65.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/8343\/1000\/products\/22e65af2-8abe-4d18-aed0-827cd982366b__16395_fbcc6b56-5219-4751-b1c7-5ce64b04767b.jpg?v=1706245123"},{"product_id":"singing-saltwater-country-journey-to-the-songlines-of-carpentaria-by-john-bradley-with-yanyuwa-families","title":"Singing Saltwater Country by Yanuwa Families with John Bradley","description":"John Bradley's compelling account of three decades living with the Yanyuwa people of the Gulf of Carpentaria and of how the elders  revealed to him the ancient songlines of their Dreaming.

Over three decades he learns their  language and their country, becoming intimately drawn into other ways of being, both practical and spiritual. With passion and pride they teach  him their songlines, relating what they know and value - ancestors, kin, allegiances; places, plants, animals; seasons, ceremonies, stories -  and the spirit that sustains all.

There are strategies for developing sensitivity to a student's cultural background, creating a tone in the classroom conducive to learning, building strong teacher-student relationships and effectively managing student behaviour. The authors show how to bridge the demands of the curriculum with the learning Indigenous students bring with them to the classroom and how to work with the learning styles of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. There is a focus on the best approaches for assessment and an exploration of the particular challenges for teachers of students in remote locations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoth practical and inspiring, this is an essential reference for all teachers working with Indigenous students, whether they be in the city or rural areas, in a class of twenty-five or just one student.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs4639DCB\"\u003eTeaching Indigenous Students\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eshould be essential reading for all educators.
