You're not failing. You're just caught in a trap designed for struggle. Modern parenting is drowning us. We have more information than ever, yet parents are more anxious, burnt out, and disconnected than they've been in generations. We're told to manage behaviour, enforce rules, and stay in control - but not how to stay emotionally present during meltdowns or manage the old wounds that get pressed when our children's behaviour hooks something deep inside us. After twenty-five years working with families, therapist Lisa Taylor knows the truth: the real problem isn't your child's behaviour. It's the invisible heartprints from your own childhood - the emotional imprints that still shape how you respond when stress runs high and nothing goes to plan. The Perfect Parent Trap offers something different. Not another technique to master, but an invitation to break free from inherited patterns of control, perfectionism, and fear. When you learn to respond to the child in front of you instead of reacting from the child within you, everything shifts. This isn't about doing more. It's about being more present - with yourself first, then with the people you love most. Your children don't need you to be perfect. They need you to be real.

Epic Lives and Monasticism in the Middle Ages, 800–1050
Anna Lisa Taylor
Cambridge University Press

sidottu
This is the first book to focus on Latin epic verse saints' lives in their medieval historical contexts. Anna Taylor examines how these works promoted bonds of friendship and expressed rivalries among writers, monasteries, saints, earthly patrons, teachers and students in Western Europe in the central Middle Ages. Using philological, codicological and microhistorical approaches, Professor Taylor reveals new insights that will reshape our understanding of monasticism, patronage and education. These texts give historians an unprecedented glimpse inside the early medieval classroom, provide a nuanced view of the complicated synthesis of the Christian and Classical heritages, and show the cultural importance and varied functions of poetic composition in the ninth, tenth and eleventh centuries.

Career Development as Strategy: A Practical Guide to Creating Internal Career Centres

This resource is designed for organizations building stronger talent from within, including: executives, HR and talent leaders, L&D professionals, career development practitioners, and workforce or post-secondary partners focused on mobility, retention and long-term performance. Career Development as Strategy is a practical, evidence-informed playbook for organizations that want to make career development more coherent, visible and effective as a core part of workforce strategy. Many employers invest significantly in learning, leadership, internal mobility and employee well-being. Yet these efforts are often designed and delivered in silos, limiting their impact. Leaders struggle to see results, employees lack clarity about growth opportunities, and organizations miss the chance to align people development with evolving business priorities. This book introduces the concept of the internal career centre as essential workforce infrastructure. Rather than a new program or platform, the internal career centre is a co-ordinated system that intentionally connects existing career, learning and talent initiatives. When aligned, these efforts support internal mobility, capability-building and adaptability at scale, helping organizations respond more effectively to change. Designed for real-world organizational conditions, Career Development as Strategy focuses on strengthening what already exists. The playbook avoids one-size-fits-all solutions and instead provides practical frameworks, guiding questions and tools that help organizations assess readiness, prioritize action and make informed decisions without adding unnecessary complexity. Key topics include: Why fragmented career and talent efforts limit organizational impact How internal career centres support mobility, reskilling and workforce adaptability Assessing organizational readiness before investing in new initiatives or technology Building an evidence-informed business case, including ROI considerations Prioritizing actions that improve workforce performance and resilience Organizations use Career Development as Strategy in multiple ways. It can serve as a standalone guide to clarify thinking, align internal conversations and establish a shared language around career development as a strategic asset. It can also function as a diagnostic tool to identify gaps, assess readiness and determine where to focus first. For organizations ready to move from insight to action, the playbook provides a clear entry point into deeper, applied workforce development work, including more structured approaches such as the Internal Career Centre Bootcamp. Ultimately, this book reframes career development not as an individual benefit or isolated HR activity, but as a critical lever for organizational performance, adaptability and long-term success.
Behind the Fog is the first in-depth, comprehensive examination of the United States’ Cold War radiological weapons program. The book examines controversial military-sponsored studies and field trials using radioactive "simulants" that exposed American civilians to radiation and other hazardous substances without their knowledge or consent during the Cold War. Although Western biological and chemical weapons programs have been analyzed by a number of scholars, Behind the Fog is a strong departure from the rest in that the United States radiological weapons program has been generally unknown to the public. Martino-Taylor documents the coordinated efforts of a small group of military scientists who advanced a four-pronged secret program of human-subject radiation studies that targeted unsuspecting Americans for Cold War military purposes. Officials enabled such projects to advance through the layering of secrecy, by embedding classified studies in other studies, and through outright deception. Agency and academic partnerships advanced, supported, and concealed the studies from the public at large who ultimately served as unwitting test subjects. Martino-Taylor’s comprehensive research illuminates a dark chapter of government secrecy, the military-industrial-academic complex, and large-scale organizational deviance in American history. In its critical approach, Behind the Fog effectively examines the mechanisms that allow large-scale elite deviance to take place in modern society.
