There Was Only One Man Sammy Could Turn to…

Grandma, Me and Our Diaries at 23

Life Is Rosi

This book critically examines the current U.S. mental health treatment of children and adolescents, with a focus on diagnoses and use of psychotropic medications to address emotional and behavioral concerns. Based on decades of research and author Robert M. Foltz's more than 35-year career as a clinical psychologist, No Method to the Madness thoroughly reviews the research on diagnostic processes; medications, including stimulants for ADHD, antidepressants, and antipsychotics; and the powerful role that traumatic experiences can play. Designed for clinicians, mental health students, policy makers, and parents, this book offers integrative counseling strategies and suggestions as alternatives to the first-resort medical model to optimize outcomes for our youth and families.

A Memoir

Good Grief, Pass the Bread, Mom Is Dead

The Life and Work of Isaac Deutscher

The Heretic

This book uses illustrative snapshots from contemporary social work to critique the nature and extent of neo-liberalism's impact on social work. Discussing possibilities for resistance throughout, he explores how the interrelated processes of marketisation, consumerisation and managerialisation have changed, often negatively, how social work is both practised and experienced.

'We all need this book' Jameela Jamil 'A razor sharp manifesto by one of Britain's most vital voices' Yomi Adegoke 'Exceptional' British Vogue A groundbreaking memoir about what it means to be a disabled woman in Britain today from the acclaimed journalist and author, including insights and personal stories from over 50 contributors 'No one really talks about it. No one really talks about what it is to be a disabled woman, especially a young one. To go a bit mad. To experience pain or exhaustion or feel 92. To navigate all the standard parts of life - exams, careers, dating - but with a body that is different than everyone else's.' Part memoir, part manifesto, and full of Frances Ryan's trademark warmth, humour and honesty (as well as hard-hitting statistics), Who Wants Normal? explores six facets of life: education, careers, body image, health, relationships and representation, as well as how to survive life's bumps in the road. It draws on Frances's own experience, as well as from highly personal interviews with over 50 of Britain's best known women and non-binary people with mental and physical health conditions, including Jameela Jamil, Ruth Madeley, Sophie Morgan, Rosie Jones, Fearne Cotton, Emma Barnett, Tanni Grey-Thompson, Marsha de Cordova MP, Ellie Goldstein and Katie Piper. Who Wants Normal? lifts the lid off a subject that is too often shrouded in stereotypes and silence. It offers support, inspiration and a sense of solidarity to the 1 in 4 women with long-term health conditions - and will open the eyes of anyone wanting to better understand what life is really like with a disability. 'Beautiful, vital and important. I loved it' Jack Thorne 'I've never related to a book more. Disabled or not, you MUST read this' Rosie Jones 'Supercharged relevance [full of] robust analysis and wry humour... readers will find here stories to inspire, enrage and encourage' Observer

The Disabled Girls’ Guide to Life

Who Wants Normal?

A poignant new memoir from National Book Award–nominee Iliana Regan, author of Burn the Place and Fieldwork, and Michelin star–winning chef.

The Folklorists

It's 1977, and punk rock has just hit Liverpool. The legendary Eric's club is home to the city's rebels, posers and misfits. It's a place of attitude, adventure and new possibilities, and it changes lives. Some become pop stars; Penny Kiley becomes a music journalist. The story traces Penny's relationship with the music scene from the turbulent political 1980s into the changing culture of the 21st century. Throughout these years, she never stops being a misfit, and the question remains: how do you navigate normal life when punk is dead and you don't know you're autistic? Atypical Girl begins as a coming-of-age story and ends as a midlife reinvention. What unites them is a search for identity and the role that music plays in all our lives.

Liverpool, Punk Rock and Trying to be Normal

Atypical Girl

'One of boxing’s most honest and nuanced comment­ators'&nbsp;Times Literary Supplement 'A poignant farewell from a boxing obsessive to a sport he now barely recognises . . . characterised throughout by moral clarity”&nbsp;Literary Review ‘The Last Bell is one of the most engaging sports books I’ve read for a long time’ Mike Williams, ‘Today’, BBC Radio 4 ‘Few have covered professional boxing’s ugliness and exhilaration with McRae’s deftness of touch…artistry and compassion’ New Statesman Donald McRae has been immersed in boxing for fifty years. He has followed fighters around the world and won multiple awards for his writing. But, in recent years, McRae’s love has waned, as criminality and corruption consume the soul of boxing.&nbsp; &nbsp; In 2018, grieving the death of his sister and with his parents terminally ill, he sought refuge in boxing again – just as Tyson Fury completed an incredible comeback, proving that the ring can still offer exhilaration and redemption. &nbsp; From Fury’s resurrection to the first undisputed heavyweight champion this century, boxing can be epic and electrifying. It can also be disappointing, as McRae discovers when he documents doping’s insidious rise or travels to Saudi Arabia where boxing ignores state repression. In The Last Bell, McRae takes us ringside to thrilling bouts with great contemporary champions and fighters as different as Fury, Canelo Álvarez, Oleksandr Usyk, Katie Taylor, Regis Prograis and Isaac Chamberlain. Whether in London or Las Vegas, he shows us what it is like to see joy pour out of a boxer in the dressing room after a magnificent victory or to hold the hand of a fighter being wheeled away on a stretcher after a devastating defeat. As he tries to reconcile the contradictions which lie at boxing’s murky heart, McRae is unflinching and compelling. &nbsp; McRae helps boxers open up about their doubts and fears and charts the courage of fighters facing ordeals from depression to war. And in telling the heartbreaking story of Patrick Day, he faces death in the ring. The Last Bell is his most powerful and personal book yet, a riveting account of life, death and boxing.
