John Burton

To lead good care, social care managers must have professional and personal authority: a clear understanding of the core task and the emotional challenges of care, and the imagination to create an organisation or team dedicated to meeting people's needs. This guide gives managers the understanding of systems of care and will inspire them to take the lead. Using the stories of four managers leading four different care services, John Burton explains the key issues and shows how, by focusing on the core task and taking the authority to lead, managers can transform social care. Furthermore, they will find their own work life-enhancing and immensely satisfying.

Hadith-samlingerne anses af muslimer for at indeholde traditioner om profeten Muhammad, hans ord og gerninger, overleveret af hans tilhængere og nedskrevet i det 8. og 9. århundrede. De udgør sammen med Koranen grundlaget for islamisk tro og praksis. Vestlige forskere har dog i årevis stillet spørgsmål ved traditionernes validitet, idet de mener forbindelsen til Muhammad er svag. Denne bog undersøger og diskuterer oprindelsen af de synspunkter, der findes i hadith-samlingerne. Den sammenligner dem med Koranens lære, især hvad angår faste, bøn og ægteskab, og ser på, hvordan de bliver behandlet i den tidlige eksegetiske litteratur. Bogen introducerer på en ukompliceret måde læseren til en række centrale problemstillinger i islamisk tænkning og vestlig islamforskning.

Bedworth's long history, from its Saxon origins to its Domesday entry as a small farming settlement, and later to near extinction in the Black Death, has always been marked by hardship and poverty. Seventeenth-century hearth tax returns show it as the poorest village in Warwickshire. Hardship has given its inhabitants a distinctive and a gritty determination that marks them still, despite the changes of the last hundred years. The need for huge amounts of coal to drive the Industrial Revolution transformed the village into a town, and the coming of ribbon-weaving to the area changed its physical appearance. Squeezed by Coventry to the south and Nuneaton to the north, Bedworth remains proud of its achievements, of traditions and fierce independence. The photographs in this book show the extraordinary changes that have taken place over the last 120 years.

Did Saskatchewan give away the goose that laid the golden egg? When it comes to potash, John Burton claims we did. And he asks, where is the money for the natural resource going now? In Saskatchewan, politics and potash are inextricably intertwined. The province is the world's largest producer of potash and the industry plays a significant role in the provincial economy. With global markets in upheaval, this book questions the ownership of natural resources and asks if average citizens are receiving a fair share of profits. An insider who helped nationalize the industry in the 1970s, John Burton expertly integrates behind-the-scenes accounts of the major players, archival material, and interview sources to produce a book that cuts through the bull to add to our understanding of the world's greatest fertilizer.

These three villages to the north-east of Coventry are within a mile of each other, yet are distinct communities with different histories, traditions and rivalries. Ansty has an imposing seventeenth-century hall, now a hotel, which influenced village life and employment. Ansty was also close to early coal mines and the Oxford Canal, now a popular tourist route. Shilton had many ribbon-weavers in the nineteenth century, as well as agriculture. Ansty and Shilton retain Anglican churches, and Shilton has a tiny Baptist church. Barnacle has a Methodist chapel and found itself split between nearby Bulkington and Shilton when parish boundaries mattered more. It used to have two pubs and a shop. Two farms have Civil War associations. The old photographs have been gathered over thirty years. The images compare starkly with the present day, when most residents have to work outside the villages.

The village of Bulkington, situated in the county of Warwickshire, has a long and rich history. The earliest records of the village and surrounding area can be traced back to the eleventh century. Throughout the medieval period Bulkington remained predominantly agricultural, but this changed with the introduction of the ribbon-weaving industry. The village has since changed from an agricultural and ribbon-weaving village into a commuter suburb for Nuneaton and Coventry. It is admirable that many in the village strive to retain the identity and memories of the communities of Ryton, Weston, Bramcote and Bulkington. Since 1990 a new generation has grown up with no memories of old Bulkington. It is for those readers, and for those who have moved into the village, that this book will provide particular interest. For those who remember old Bulkington this book will also provide nostalgic pleasure.

How could I be going to Hell? What I was experiencing messed with my theology to a radically uncomfortable degree. The Holy Spirit was making sure I would never be the same again. Mission accomplished.The Terror of Hell is a shocking true story of awakening. The contrast between the horror of Hell and the overwhelming wonder of intimacy with the Lover of our souls is stunning.

If, throughout the Bible, God causes men and women to do things that defy human logic, why do we default to common sense when making decisions in our lives? If God told Gideon to secure only 1% of his army to go into battle, which obviously defies solid and time-tested military wisdom, why don't we consider that God may also cause us to advance in our lives via nontraditional and even bizarre means?Job 11:7 "Can you search out the deep things of God? Can you find out the limits of the Almighty?" The message of Revelation Driven Prayer will help launch you into the unusual and deep things of God that he has prepared specifically for you.
