Sinossi

Arab Engineering unveils the significant contributions of Middle Eastern engineers, architects, and inventors to global technology. Often overlooked, these innovations range from sophisticated hydraulic systems crucial for agriculture in arid climates to groundbreaking architectural designs found in mosques and palaces. The book highlights how advancements in mechanical engineering, such as early automated machines, predate and influenced later European inventions, challenging Eurocentric views of technological progress.

 
The book explores hydraulic engineering, architectural innovation, and mechanical engineering across chapters, demonstrating how Arab engineers integrated scientific knowledge with practical applications and aesthetic considerations. For example, the qanat system of irrigation showcases ingenious water management techniques. By examining medieval Arabic manuscripts and archaeological findings, Arab Engineering reveals how these innovations were transmitted to Europe, enriching our understanding of the diverse origins of modern technology.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the historical background and key figures, then explores specific examples of each engineering domain, concluding with an analysis of how these innovations influenced Western technological development. This approach offers a unique perspective by focusing on the practical applications of scientific knowledge in solving real-world problems, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of science, technology, and the Middle East.

    With 38% of Gen Z identifying as ‘spiritual,’ how might we meet this cultural shift and curiosity about the existence of the Soul after death? 
     
    Integrating Spiritual Conversations in Therapy meets the growing need to extend our therapeutic knowledge to include quantum theories of interconnectedness, and neuroscientific studies into relational energies, radiating from the heart when people meet. 
     
    Research shows spirituality plays an important role in mental health and resilience, yet soul and spirit are rarely addressed in counselling education. 
     
    Woven with years of practice wisdom and informed by research, case examples, lived experiences and diverse spiritual descriptions across time, author Kim Billington will help you discover how to approach spiritual conversations with sensitivity, openness and care. 
     
    Integrated with narrative therapy gems and Carl Rogers’ humanistic core qualities of presence and non-judgmental acceptance, principles also foundational to many spiritual traditions, this book shines a light where the clinical and the sacred quietly meet. 
     
    Integrating Spiritual Conversations in Therapy is written for therapists, counsellors, social workers, teachers and those who are curious, tentative or already engaged with spiritual themes in their work.

    In What to Do When Your Child Isn't Talking, speech and language therapist Nicola Lathey and journalist Tracey Blake offer parents reassurance and solutions—at a moment when speech delay and regression is more common than ever. Organized by major milestones from birth to age four, this don't-panic guide will empower you to:

    ● Help your child practice specific speech sounds and words that they find tricky with fun activities, from classic clapping games to filling a "story sack." 
     
     
     
    ● Get to the root of toddler tantrums, chronic shyness, unclear speech, stuttering, social anxiety, and other issues stunting your child's self-expression.
