    In the history of Australian diplomacy, the Jakarta post between 2004 and 2007 looms larger than any other. 
     
     In the span of just a few years, a terrorist bomb attack partially destroyed the Embassy compound, killing eleven; the Boxing Day tsunami wreaked havoc on an almost incomprehensible scale; a bombing in Bali killed twenty, including four Australians; Schapelle Corby divided public opinion; members of the Bali Nine were executed; and a Garuda flight crashed and exploded in Yogyakarta, killing twenty, including members of the Australian diplomatic corps. 
     
    Not only did Grant Dooley bear witness to these events, but he was also a first responder in the Embassy bombing and plane crash. And when he wasn't dealing with emergencies and constant terror threats, he had to delicately manage the nation's political leaders, from Alexander Downer to John Howard to Bronwyn Bishop. Somehow, Grant and his wife, Kristan, who worked on the consular staff, kept it all together for themselves and their young family. Or did they? 
     
    Bomb Season in Jakarta is an incredible up close and personal account of an unparalleled period in Australian diplomacy.

    "This book is must [listening] . . . although it will at times shock and perhaps even offend the sensibilities of traditional therapists." —American Journal of Psychiatry 
     
     
     
    This book brings together Erich Fromm's basic statements on the application of psychoanalytic theory to social dynamics. At the same time, it offers an image of man consonant with the hopes of radical humanism. 
     
     
     
    The Crisis of Psychoanalysis is a collection of nine brilliant essays. Although his work is deeply rooted in Freudian theory, Fromm further develops Freud's doctrines by including both social and ethical dimensions, and applies his discoveries and insights to address the problems we face in society at large.

    Urban Education - Challenges and...

    Urban education refers to the educational systems and schools that serve students in densely populated cities, where a diverse range of cultures, languages, and socioeconomic backgrounds converge. These urban areas often face unique challenges, including overcrowded classrooms, insufficient resources, and disparities in student outcomes. While these issues are significant, urban schools also hold immense potential for transformation and innovation. With the right strategies, policies, and community involvement, urban education can evolve into a powerful force for opportunity and social mobility. 
    One of the primary challenges in urban education is the limited availability of resources. Schools in urban areas frequently struggle with underfunding, which affects the quality of teaching materials, facilities, and technology. Teachers are often stretched thin, tasked with managing large classes and meeting the diverse needs of students. The lack of adequate support services, such as school counselors or special education resources, exacerbates these issues. As a result, students in urban schools may not have access to the same educational opportunities as their peers in wealthier, suburban districts. 
    Compounding these challenges is the higher prevalence of poverty in urban communities. Many students in these areas come from low-income families, facing additional hardships outside of the classroom, such as food insecurity, unstable housing, and limited access to healthcare. These factors can have a significant impact on students' ability to learn and succeed academically. The achievement gap between urban students and those in more affluent areas is a direct consequence of these disparities, making it crucial for urban schools to address the root causes of poverty while providing effective academic support.
