This book is the first to provide an account of the life of Rev. William Arderne Shoults (1839-1887) and his book collecting. It is also the first detailed examination of a true survivor, his book collection of some 5600 items, including medieval manuscripts, incunables, books on ecclesiastical history and primitive church rites and rituals, philology, bibliography, science, travel, and Arabic and Persian texts. The contents cover Shoults's early years at St. John's College, Cambridge University, his work in some of the poorer ritualistic parishes of London, his association with the Rev. Joseph Leycester Lyne (1837-1908), the controversial, enthusiastic, revivalist known as 'Father Ignatius', his work on Latin hymns, his marriage, and his travel overseas, which included visiting the Vatican Library. After Shoults's death at 48, his collection was gifted to Selwyn College, Dunedin, arriving in New Zealand in 1893. The survival of this collection is remarkable and it exists as a fine example of what a nineteenth-century curate could collect.

Abuse of the Innocent, investigates horrific first-hand accounts of abuse. Told in the graphic style of a gripping novel which concludes the KAL trilogy: a three-part adventure of suffering and recovery from modern megalomania. Emily Jackson; twenty-seven, tenacious and sometimes arrogant attends a psychedelic party to honour Kal's retirement. She stumbles onto appalling and harrowing accounts of abuse, retold by several recovering victims. Walking back into their past, Emily enters the circle of their distorted minds, inhaling the fear that chased them and feeling the guilt which embraced them for years. Incensed at the discovery, Emily investigates to expose stories of violation and physical harm, emotional torture and spiritual destruction. She discovers acts of commission and omission, often wielded by the hands of men the victims trusted. She unwraps the exploitation which resulted in actual harm to the health and survival of hundreds of youths; reveals the shattered development and broken dignity of children and adults by those in positions of responsibility, trust or power. It's the final part of the world surrounding Kal Saldana. Horrified by the actions of men he once stood alongside, Kal introduces the unshakable investigator, to unveil the Abuse of the Innocent. The intrepid TV journalist whilst tackling this emotional upheaval is challenged to face her own sexuality and personal nemesis. "You don't have to believe this account after all, you weren't there. But I was and trust me, I don't lie." Emily Jackson
'Unelmat on tehty toteutettaviksi' ajattelee nuori Alex Hartmann työllistyessään Federaation suurimpaan päivälehteen. Alexin joutuessa navigoimaan totuudenmukaisen ja toisaalta sallitun raportoinnin ristipaineessa pestin uutuudenviehätys karisee kuitenkin nopeasti. Kitka kasvaa päivä päivältä ja pakottaa Alexin lopulta journalistietiikkansa perimmäisten kysymysten ääreen:Onko journalistiikan tehtävä raportoida maailmasta vai muuttaa sitä?Onko median tehtävä välittää tietoa vai kehystää sitä sopivaan narratiiviin?Ja tietenkin tärkeimpänä: kummalla puolella rajaa oikeastaan seison?Saman todellisuuden toisella syrjällä Asa Ulfriksdottir kohtaa Pohjois-territorioiden yhtenäiskulttuurin nurjan puolen. Hänen avioton lapsensa sysää käyntiin tapahtumien vyöryn, joka huipentuu poliittisen sanapelin kiihottamaan kansan kapinaan, jota Asa huomaa olevansa kykenemätön hallitsemaan.'Mutta minulla on kerrottavaa' pureutuu sanan voimaan, sanankäytön rajoituksiin sekä siihen, kuinka vaikeaa on purkaa valheellista todellisuutta ilman avointa keskustelua. Teos on aina ajankohtainen kannanotto sananvapauden puolesta maailmassa, jossa kovin monet ovat valmiita puheen rajoittamiseen. Lisätietoja kirjailijasta ja lukunäytteet kirjasta www.jackandolini.com

Hailed by Mark Hyman, MD, as “a ray of light and hope” for autoimmune sufferers, this groundbreaking book provides research and solutions for those affected by autoimmune disorders including Crohn’s disease, type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and more.In the first book of its kind, journalist Donna Jackson Nakazawa examines nearly 100 debilitating autoimmune diseases—such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, Crohn’s disease, type 1 diabetes, and rheumatoid arthritis—that cause the body to destroy itself, mistakenly attacking healthy cells as the immune system fights off bacteria, viruses, and other invaders. As Nakazawa share the vivid, heartbreaking stories, including her own, of people living with these mysterious, chronic, and often hard-to-diagnose illnesses, she explores the alarming and unexpected connection between this deadly crisis and the countless environmental triggers we’re exposed to every day: heavy metals, toxins, pesticides, viruses, chemicals in the foods we eat, and more. With the help of leading experts, Nakazawa explores revolutionary preventions, treatments, and cures emerging around the world and offers practical advice for protecting your immune system and reducing your risk of autoimmune disease in the future.

In San Diego, not far from the gates of the fantasy world of Disneyland, tent cities lining the freeways remind us of an ugly reality. Homeless individuals are slowing rail traffic between Sacramento and the Bay Area and swarming subway trains in Los Angeles in search of a place to sleep when they’re not languishing on Skid Row. Drug use among the homeless is plaguing communities, with discarded needles threatening children playing at public parks. And every day across California, thousands of homeless youth who lack safe and stable housing struggle to stay in school, to perform well academically, and to form meaningful connections with their teachers and peers.Since the 1980s, countless research studies have been published on the topic of homelessness in America. Too often, however, social science research on homelessness is narrow in scope, mired in politics, and reliant on questionable assumptions about the root causes of the problem. The severity of the homeless crises afflicting cities requires innovative solutions backed by credible data and objective research. This book examines the causes of homelessness with a focus on unaffordable housing, poverty, mental illness, substance addiction, and legal reform. It examines the state and local policy environment to determine ways in which housing policy, social service programs, and employment opportunities interact to exacerbate, perpetuate, or reduce homelessness. The book also evaluates different strategies being used at the state, county, and local levels to prevent or reduce homelessness. Finally, the authors provide a mix of long-term policy solutions based on their findings that have the greatest potential to reduce homelessness.
