"Lyn Julius provides a riveting account of a fascinating, but disgracefully overlooked subject. Anyone who really wants to understand the Middle East, Israel and world history, should read it."--Tom Gross, former Middle East correspondent, Sunday Telegraph; contributor to The Guardian and The Wall Street Journal *** Now available in paperback! Who are the Jews from Arab countries? What were relations with Muslims like? What made Jews leave countries where they had been settled for thousands of years? What lessons can we learn from the mass exodus of minorities from the Middle East? Lyn Julius undertakes to answer all these questions and more in Uprooted, the culmination of ten years of work studying these issues. Jews lived continuously in the Middle East and North Africa for almost 3,000 years. Yet, in just 50 years, their indigenous communities outside Palestine almost totally disappeared as more than 99 percent of the Jewish population fled. Some 650,000-including a minority of ideological Zionists-went to Israel. Before the Holocaust they constituted ten percent of the world's Jewish population, and now over 50 percent of Israel's Jews are refugees from Arab and Muslim countries, or their descendants. This same process is now repeating in Christian and other minority communities across the Middle East. This book assesses how well these Jews have integrated into Israel and how their struggles have been politicized. It charts the growing clamour for recognition, redress and memorialization for these Jewish refugees, and looks at how their cause can contribute to peace and reconciliation between Israel and the Muslim world. *** "This is a story of Jewish exile, Jewish marginalization and Jewish loss of freedom. Through personal stories, writer Julius gives us the history of the Jews from Arab countries alongside historical facts. We read of the chaos of Jewish communities and lives that were totally changed by these experiences and that are still felt today." --Reviews by Amos Lassen, May 7, 2018 [Subject: Middle East Studies, Jewish Studies, History, Sociology, Politics]

Suicide is a confronting topic. As a parent, it may represent the greatest fear for our family. Yet, for many, there is a misguided belief that talking about suicide with young people causes further distress. Research shows otherwise -- not talking about suicide can be harmful. Psychologist Lyn O'Grady has spent decades working, researching and presenting on better mental health for children, young people and families. Along the way, she has witnessed the desperate struggle with life that suicidal thoughts and feelings bring. She has also seen countless books about parenting, usually featuring simplistic recipe-type approaches that can be appealing but challenging to implement at times of crisis. So she wrote this book to explain exactly what it means to be a parent of a teenager who is struggling with suicidal thoughts and behaviours and how to help. Drawing on practical experience across a range of community settings, the lived experience of people and families who have experienced suicidality, and the latest research and theories in the field, this book helps: - to arm parents with knowledge so they can better understand what's going on with their teenager - to provide space to reflect on their parenting and to look after themselves - to not feel alone; and - to know what to do to support their teenagers during difficult times. This book will help any parent or health worker working with families to understand how to connect and communicate with teenagers when dealing with the topic of suicide.

During the years 1971 to 2006, Lyn McGettigan and her husband Brian owned and managed six hotels, including the famous Sheila's Tavern in North Sydney. Raised in the bush, her rough-and-tumble country upbringing equipped her well to be a publican's wife. With a short stature, quick wit and three children in tow, she quickly learned how to handle all the characters who walked in and out of their lives, and God forbid that any one of them try to walk over her From the public-bar guys-salt of the earth, hard-working blokes-to the saloon-bar types-police and their informers, magistrates, media, advertising guys, politicians, office girls, girlfriends and wives-to the colourful characters who moved between both worlds-the underworld figures, crims and bikies and 'women of the night'-under Lyn's eagle eye, all mixed socially and minded their own business. While danger may have lurked around the bar-room door, the pub was their turf, and as she looked after them, they looked after her and made it a safe place. This is the story of the characters who walked in and out of the bar-room door, the antics they got up to, and the feisty little woman behind the bar who took it all in her stride.
The First New Zealand Himalayan Expedition, in 1951, was initiated by Earle Riddiford, who with Ed Cotter and Pasang Dawa Lama made the first ascent of Mukut Parbat, their target peak in the Garhwal Himalaya. Accompanying them on that expedition, though not to that summit, were two other New Zealand climbers, Edmund Hillary and George Lowe. Hearing of the success on Mukut Parbat, the New Zealand Alpine Club suggested to the Alpine Club in London that acclimatized New Zealanders would be a valuable asset on the forthcoming 1951 British Reconnaissance of Mt Everest, to be led by Eric Shipton. This resulted in an invitation for two New Zealanders to join the party: thrilling news the four climbers received while they were ensconced in the hill-country village of Ranikhet. A day and a half of bitter dispute rent the party asunder. Which two should go to Everest? In this enthralling narrative, journalist Lyn McKinnon tells the stories of Earle Riddiford and Ed Cotter, two extraordinary New Zealanders whose climbing achievements were forever eclipsed by the exploits of others. She draws on private papers as well as published work, and extensively interviews Cotter himself, and the families of both men, as well as many other contemporary climbers, to set the record straight.
