Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A new edition of this book is available WINNER OF TES/NASEN BEST ACADEMIC BOOK AWARD 2000 `It is to be hoped that teachers and others who deal with children and young people in group settings will read this book and realize that there is a positive as well as a negative side to autism. Whilst it…is a huge burden for any parents to know that their child is different, if must help to know that that child can be happy. In trying to help children conform to a fairly arbitrary norm, do we risk turning some with much to contribute, into misfits whose families and schools apologize for them rather than celebrating their very individual learning styles, personalities and potential? - Jane Lovey, Cambridge University School of Education `In her book Martian in the Playground, Clare Sainsbury gives a scholarly and insightful description of the experience of people with Aspergers Syndrome. The accounts of their memories of school, both in the classroom and in social settings, should be read by all involved in education of students with an autistic disorder. This book will be if interest to all who are involved with Aspergers Syndrome: parents, professional and the young people themselves- Dr Jane Shields, Director NAS Earlybird Centre `This is amazingly informative book that should be read by every parent/family of a child with Aspergers Syndrome. It should also be included on the reading list of any teachers who have an Aspergers pupil in their class. I am deeply grateful to Clare Sainsbury for writing this book because now when I am forced to justify my sons outrageous behaviour to members of my family, friends and acquaintances I can save my breadth and just hand them this wonderful volume - Grapevine `An extremely perceptive account of the experiences that young people with Aspergers Syndrome go through during their schooling - Education Psychology in Practice `Written in a clear accessible style a profoundly optimistic book education manuals such as this one have an essential role to play in promoting inclusive practice, and as such it is highly recommended reading - Disability & Society `This deceptively little book contains more truth and provides more insight into what it is like to have Aspergers Syndrome than many weighty tome on the subject. It offers a view from the inside, but it is not yet another autobiography. Admirably and refreshingingly, the author has refrained from giving an account solely based on her own experiences. Instead she sets out observations from 25 different suffers, giving often astonishing and sometimes harrowing glimpses of what actually happens to a child with Aspergers s Syndrome in the classroom, in the playground, in the lunch queue and at home - Child Psychology & Psychiatry `This is an exceptional book which succeeds brilliantly in providing an insight into what life is like for a youngster with Aspergers Syndrome - Special Children `This is a wise and enabling book which is also a damn good read- Peter Clough, University of Sheffield This exceptional book aims to illuminate what it means to be a person who has Aspergers Syndrome by providing a window into a unique and particular world. Drawing on her own experience of schooling, and that of a network of friends and correspondents who share her way of thinking and responding, Clare Sainsbury reminds us of the unique potential for harm which education holds for those who do not fit. This book holds insights that take us beyond the standard guidance on how to manage autistic spectrum disorder. It challenges the way we might handle obsessional behaviour. It invites us to celebrate the pure passion of the intellect, which such obsessions can represent, and to recognise the delight which can be experienced by children who love to collect. It reminds us that many of the autistic mannerisms we might try to suppress actually help the child to think. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlig.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Implicit within claims that society itself is in some sense postmodern is an argument about the priority of consumption as a determinant of everyday life. In this view, mass media advertising and market dynamics lead to a constant search for new fashions, new styles, new sensations and experience…s. Material goods are consumed as `communicators; they are valued as signifiers of taste and of lifestyle. This volume examines the viability of this portrait of contemporary society. Mike Featherstone explores the roots of consumer culture, how it is defined and differentiated and the extent to which it represents the arrival of a `postmodern world. He examines the theories of consumption and postmodernism among contemporary social theorists such as Bourdieu, Baudrillard, Lyotard and Jameson and relates these to the actual nature of contemporary consumer culture. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 'In this brilliant new edition, Andy Field has introduced important new introductory material on statistics that the student will need and was missing at least in the first edition. This book is the best blend that I know of a textbook in statistics and a manual on SPSS. It is a balanced composit…e of both topics, using SPSS to illustrate important statistical material and, through graphics, to make visible important approaches to data analysis. There are many places in the book where I had to laugh, and that's saying a lot for a book on statistics. His excellent style engages the reader and makes reading about statistics fun' - David C Howell, Professor Emeritus, University of Vermont, USA. This award-winning text, now fully updated with SPSS Statistics, is the only book on statistics that you will need! Fully revised and restructured, this new edition is even more accessible as it now takes students through from introductory to advanced level concepts, all the while grounding knowledge through the use of SPSS Statistics. Andy Field's humorous and self-deprecating style and the book's host of characters make the journey entertaining as well as educational. While still providing a very comprehensive collection of statistical methods, tests and procedures, and packed with examples and self-assessment tests to reinforce knowledge, the new edition now also offers: a more gentle introduction to basic-level concepts and methods for beginners; new textbook features to make the book more user-friendly for those learning about more advanced concepts, encouraging 'critical thinking'; a brand new, full-colour design, making it easy for students to navigate between topics, and to understand how to use the latest version of SPSS Statistics; both 'real world' (the bizarre and the wonderful) and invented examples that illustrate the concepts and make the techniques come alive for students; an additional chapter on multilevel modelling for advanced-level students; and, reinforced binding to make the book easier to handle at a computer workstation. The book also includes access to a brand new and improved companion Website, bursting with features including: animated 'SPSS walk-through' videos clearly demonstrating how to use the latest SPSS Statistics modules; self-marking multiple choice questions; data sets for psychology, business and management and health sciences; a flash-card glossary for testing knowledge of key concepts; and, access to support material from SAGE study skills books. Statistics lecturers are also provided with a whole range of resources and teaching aids, including: the test bank; over 300 multiple-choice questions ready to upload to WebCT, Blackboard or other virtual learning environments; charts and diagrams in electronic format for inclusion in lecture slides; and, PowerPoint slides written by the author to accompany chapters of the text.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This practical and comprehensive guide demonstrates the essential interpersonal skills and techniques - including reflecting, paraphrasing, summarizing and empathy - which can be used to counsel the depressed person. The book explores the complexities of the depressive experience and examines the… central issues of abandonment, sense of failure, powerlessness, shame and guilt inherent in the nature of depression.

Using carefully chosen illustrations and case examples, Gilbert traces the steps appropriate at different stages in the counselling process and shows how the counsellor can help the client to change, and to take over the whole method of change, in order to cope independently. A final section looks at the special problems which arise in depressed clients. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting.
