Nurses and Nursing (Britain’s Heritage)
Nurses and nursing are firmly rooted in Britain’s heritage, for the profession as we know it today owes much to the pioneering work of Florence Nightingale. Before she helped establish the first nurse training school in Liverpool in the late 1800s, the women who looked after the sick were a motley mix. The role of the nurse has developed from the untrained handywoman and private nurse, through the early nurses who acted as ‘health missioners’, to the highly trained professionals we recognise today. Nurse training has evolved to reflect the advances in medical treatment and nurses have been able to engage more widely with the community by undergoing additional training as, for example, district nurses, school nurses, midwives, health visitors and mental health nurses. During both world wars, nurses made a special contribution on the home front and overseas. Using first-hand accounts from nurses through the ages, Susan Cohen takes us on a nostalgic journey through the history of nurses and nursing in Britain, from the pre-Nightingale days through to the post-NHS era. This book is part of the Britain’s Heritage series, which provides definitive introductions to the riches of Britain’s past, and is the perfect way to get acquainted with nurses and nursing in all their variety.Read more

Dr Jim Jolly Lecturer School of Healthcare University of Leeds.
This book is an excellent resource for students and their teachers as it complements all core anatomy and physiology text books and curricula no matter how the content is sequenced. The book covers all of the main systems in the body along with the fundamentals underpinning students’ understanding of core concepts in physiology. The use of a self-assessment approach stimulates students to actively engage with the material while they self-correct and learn. The book is a gift to all nursing students revising for examinations that assess the anatomy and physiology component of their programme. I highly recommend this book.

Nursing in Prison
This Textbook addresses a gap in the market, as currently there are no contemporary books exploring nursing within a prison setting. The main focus is the provision of healthcare in the Prison Service of England and Wales, although examples will also be drawn from the United States of America and Australia. Healthcare within prison settings has changed remarkably to address the needs of the changing prison populations. Thus, this text is clearly structured to support student nurses to understand the role of the nurse within prison and how the different specialities of nursing are applied in this unique setting. This textbook provides an overview of the context of prison, prisoners, and healthcare, as well as the experiences of nurse specialists who work in this field, including adult, mental health, and learning disability nurses across primary care, mental health services, substance misuse and end-of-life care.
This volume is informative for both undergraduate student nurses and for qualified nurses and dispels many myths regarding working as a nurse in a prison. Each chapter is written by experts within the field, including nurses who have worked or still working within the prison setting. An important objective of this work is to inform student nurses of the possibility and opportunity of a nursing career within a prison setting.

Nurturing Your Autistic Young Person: A Parent’s Handbook to Supporting Newly Diagnosed Teens and Pre-Teens
As the parent of a child recognised as autistic as a pre-teen or teen, it can often feel difficult to find the answers you need. Children who make it to late primary/early secondary age before being picked up by the system tend to present with traits that are harder to spot, meaning it can be harder to engage professionals in the diagnostic process and gather the necessary support.
Cathy Wassell, CEO of Autistic Girls Network, has tailored this handbook to support parents with older children or teenagers who are at the identification stage, walking them through the basics in an engaging and accessible manner. She addresses key challenges for this age group, including co-occurring conditions, puberty, and safeguarding, as well as looking to the future, advising on schooling options, and beyond.
Designed to help parents become fully informed and ensure a nurturing and positive environment for our autistic young people, this is a guide with a focus on difference – not deficit.

Older Yet Faster: The Secret to Running Fast and Injury Free
Older Yet Faster (English and French editions with illustrations and photos, and online lesson and exercise videos (Closed Captions in English, French and Hindi)) is a manual for teaching runners how to transition to efficient running and to help them to avoid incurring almost all of the common running injuries as they do so. It is ideal for beginners to learn how to run well and for experienced runners to changeover to good technique. Coaches can also use this book as a reference on how to implement technique change for their clients, and we expect it to become the go-to manual for medical professionals, to help them deal with running related injuries caused by bad technique and footwear.After learning how injuries are caused and then gaining a good understanding of running technique in the early chapters you will be prepared to read about our technique-change system which we call “OYF Running”. This consists of “Keith’s Lessons” used in combination with “Heidi’s Strengthening Exercises” and forms the main body of the book.” Keith shows you how to run efficiently in a simple, step-by-step guide both in the book and with videos. Each Lesson provides exercises set out in a format which is both easy to understand and implement. The first three lessons teach you the basics of running correctly and the last three help you put these into practice and help you to refine your technique over the period of your transition. This program is set up so that runners can teach themselves in conjunction with the online videos and forum.Heidi’s Strengthening Exercises consists of a well-ordered series of exercises which will help your body safely adjust to the redistribution of the workload and are essential to rebuild parts of the body which have been neglected due to poor technique. It should be started as soon as possible, in order to build strength and to deal with the resultant muscle and tendon soreness that you will start to experience. We identify specific injuries and how they are caused and we show how by improving running technique, and re-strengthening these injuries are quickly cured. Podiatrists will find Heidi’s experiences and advice particularly interesting, especially as they will almost certainly, be in conflict with what is still taught in universities. Chapters Twelve and Thirteen, ‘Managing the changes’ and ‘Rehabilitation’, explain what should happen during the transition and what to do should you get injured, or if you are currently injured. Chapter Fourteen is very important as you must have suitable footwear to run with good technique. There is then a chapter on how your body shape will change as you adopt your new technique and a chapter on general tips and traps a list of commonly used terms, a glossary and an index.Finally, we have included three appendices: For Coaches, For Podiatrists and a detailed look at Heidi’s strengthening program. In Appendix A, Keith discusses how to implement his Lessons from a coach’s point of view, in Appendix B, Heidi explains how she treats her patients who are suffering with specific injuries and in Appendix C she explains her Strengthening program in greater detail for medical professionals and interested runners.Read more

One Mind: How Our Individual Mind Is Part of a Greater Consciousness and Why It Matters
In One Mind, New York Times bestselling author Larry Dossey, MD, proposes an inspiring view of consciousness that may reshape our destiny. Dossey’s premise is that all individual minds are part of an infinite, collective dimension of consciousness he calls the One Mind. This state – which we can all access – explains phenomena as diverse as epiphanies, creative breakthroughs, premonitions of danger or disaster, near-death experiences, communication with other species and with the dead, reincarnation, the movement of herds, flocks and schools and remote healing.
Dossey presents his theory in easily digestible, bite-sized examples. Through engaging stories, fascinating research and brilliant insights from great thinkers throughout history, readers will explore the outer reaches of human consciousness, discover a new way to interpret the great mysteries of our experience, and learn how to develop the empathy necessary to inspire more love, peace and collective awareness. The result is a rich new understanding of what it means to be human and a renewed hope that we can successfully confront the challenges we face at this crossroads in human history.
Even before publication One Mind has drawn praise from the finest minds of our time. It has been heralded as ‘landmark’, ‘a brilliant synthesis’, a ‘magnum opus’, a ‘feast’ of ideas, ‘compelling’, ‘gripping’ and ‘a major shift in our understanding of consciousness’.

Learn to face transitions courageously, rid yourself of guilt and blame, find out how much you are deeply loved and strengthen your faith in the fact that life never ends and that love never dies.
When the time comes to grieve the loss of a pet, you are never prepared; it’s never long enough. This little book will help you know how to make the right decisions, how to stay strong in your time of loss, and how to move forward by using the power of your love instead of the limits of your mind.

“This is the book I wish we had before we started out. It fills in so many gaps in training that social workers either don’t have the time to tell you or worry will scare you off. I loved this book; your honesty about the process, our own hidden expectations, other’s expectations, the frustrations had me laughing, crying and having rants with my partner.” Jem, adoptive parent.
“I love that you were so honest about the pressures of being a Mum … it gave the good and bad of adoption and also so informative. I am going into this process with open eyes” Helen, prospective adopter.
“I went through several tissues during this book. Thank you Rachael, I can’t wait to share this with my friends and family who just don’t get it.” Nicola, adoptive parent.
“I couldn’t stop reading it, it was honest, not pretentious and gave the good and bad of adoption but also so informative. I would definitely recommend.” Jen, prospective adopter.
“Beautifully written, open and honest account of the highs and lows of building a family through adoption. The statistics and facts add to the background, however the detail and personal memories shared build the story.” Jo, adoptive parent.
“Honest and thought provoking and so vividly written I could feel every emotion as if I were in your shoes. I will be recommending to all of my future adopters.” Olivia, adoption social worker.
“As a fellow adopter, it validated experiences we’ve had and we were able to resonate with it all – infertility through to family of five. A truly wonderful memoir, it felt like we were alongside you for the ride.” Charlotte, adoptive parent.
