"A pathbreaking synthesis" Gus Speth "Rigorous and compelling" Michael Foley Why our current fixes for the environmental crisis are making things worse, and what we need to do about it. Does the future of humankind lie in colonising a new planet, or uploading our minds to a digital metaverse? Listening to certain billionaires and technophiles, you might think these are our best bets for escaping the increasingly hostile world weve made for ourselves. The Nature Delusion dismantles these ideas. It shows why technological and economic fixes alone cannot solve the existential threat of climate change, and why they remain out of reach for most people. Instead, this book uncovers the root causes of our environmental crisis from our disconnection from nature to our focus on short-term, self-centred priorities and offers a hopeful vision for the future. As the environmental crisis deepens, its easy to feel powerless or overwhelmed. The Nature Delusion invites you to see humanitys place in the world in a radically new way and demonstrates how transforming our mindset can create a healthier, more resilient world.

Interprofessional working is one of the key subjects taught across early years, education, health and social care programmes, as a result of the move towards a more integrated practice for children. Written by a multi-professional team of contributors and grounded by their experience in interprofessional work, this book relates the rhetoric of interprofessionalism to discussions and examples of practice. The authors draw on their experiences of a wide range of practice heritages and contexts to propose that a new professionalism is required in an interprofessional world. They emphasize that it is only by using interprofessional understanding and awareness when engaging with practice issues that professionals will develop the safety and quality in work with children that is now required. The book argues that individuals cannot learn to work effectively in the complex, ever changing world of services for children and families, without first gaining understanding of interprofessionalism and internalizing appropriate values and principles. The book offers new thinking on the challenges of interprofessional working including exploration of leading in uncertainty and its underpinning principles and values. Key features of the book also include: Chapters grouped into related strands of context, learning, working and current and future challengesCase studies and practice dilemmas designed to challenge the readerReflexivity points Interprofessional Working in Practice is essential reading for all professionals, students and academics linked to Children's Services.Contributors: Sharif Al-Rousi, Annie Clouston, Ian Duckmanton, Sally Graham, Joy Jarvis, Karen John, Maureen Longley, Daryl Maisey, Paty Paliokosta, Anne Rawlings, Sajni Sharma, Ute Ward, Sue Webster Autorid: Lyn Trodd, Leo Chivers

All within one year.I like to be as versatile as possible with writing and hope as many readers as possible can identify with some of what is written here.I have looked for some deeper meaning in some aspects and added a bit of fantasy......or is it?Whatever you believe I hope you enjoy these verses.
How and why does the formation of populist governments lead to changes in foreign policy? This book theorizes and empirically analyzes how populism, understood as a thin-centred ideology, impacts foreign policy. It argues that two common features of populists' foreign policy, the use of foreign policy issues for domestic political mobilization and the personalization of decision making, are key to explain different intensities of foreign policy change. The strongest change can be expected if both mobilization and personalization in a specific issue area are strong. More moderate changes are a result of a combination of strong mobilization and weak personalization, or weak mobilization and strong personalization. The empirical analysis focuses on transitions from non-populist to populist governments in Bolivia, India, the Philippines, and Turkey. It addresses foreign policy change in four fields: the escalation of international disputes, the provision of global public goods, the engagement in multilateral institutions, and the reorientation of each country's international partnerships. As a part of an abductive research process, the theory of populism and foreign policy initially applied to cases from the Global South is then also used to analyze populist governments' foreign policies in Hungary, the UK, and Italy.
Oft ist es ein alltäglicher Moment, der großartige Lernchancen bietet. Denn die besten Projekte im Kindergarten entstehen, wenn die Erwachsenen sich von den Fragen der Kinder leiten lassen und sie behutsam beim entdeckenden, forschenden Lernen begleiten. Das Besondere an Projekten ist, dass sie alle Bildungsbereiche durchdringen und das Können der Kinder übergreifend herausfordern ¿ von mathematischen Themen bis hin zu künstlerischen Fragestellungen. Das ¿Apfelprojekt¿ entsteht aus einer alltäglichen Situation, als die Kinder beim Mittagessen aufgeregt darüber diskutieren, warum manche Äpfel süß und andere sauer schmecken. Diese erste Fragestellung wird von Erzieherin Silke gleich für ein neues Bildungsprojekt aufgegriffen: ¿Sind alle Äpfel gleich?¿ Gemeinsam wird nun überlegt, wie eine befriedigende Antwort gefunden werden kann. Doch kaum ist eine Frage beantwortet, entsteht die nächste ¿ Silke weiß, dass Kinder am besten lernen einer Sache auf den Grund zu gehen, wenn sie Neugier entwickeln können. In diesem Buch präsentieren wir ein spannendes Bildungsprojekt, das viele praktische Ideen für die erfolgreiche Umsetzung von Projektarbeit im Kindergarten bietet. Das Apfelprojekt baut auf der Schritt-für-Schritt-Anleitung "So gelingen spannende Bildungsprojekte im Kindergarten" (Bananenblau, 2016) auf.
I spent several months in Japan learning authentic Head Spa techniques firsthand from practitioners, then returned to France to share this incredible method and its treatments tailored to each individual scalp, offering a profound, precise, and truly personalized experience. I also reveal the lesser-known Japanese rituals, those rarely shared outside of Japan and jealously guarded by many. This book is based on my personal experience, my observations in the field, and the methods I've tested, refined, and applied to achieve visible results and unparalleled relaxation. I hope it will be of great benefit to you.
