This book can guide you as you support your loved one—without sacrificing your own needs and well-being. You'll find the answers to some of your most urgent questions, including: what are signs and clues of suicide risk; how do I talk with my loved one about their suicidal thoughts; when should I call the police; what do I say and do after a suicide attempt; what treatments for suicidality are available; how can I help the person I care about stay safe; what can I do to help them feel better, too; what can I do to cope better; and what does recovery look like after a suicidal crisis? 
   
   
    
  Written by a psychotherapist with decades of clinical experience in suicidology, this compassionate guide offers essential communication techniques you can use to help your loved one, as well as strategies for navigating your own stress, worry, fear, and anxiety.

  ‘I’ve spent the majority of my life fighting for the rights of Traditional Owners. This has put me in the firing line. But I chose this job, I chose this political path. My family did not.’ – Wayne Bergmann 
  It’s Broome, 2010. Nyikina man Wayne Bergmann has just received a death threat. His wife has watched a friend cross the road to avoid speaking with her. His children are subject to intense schoolyard bullying. Bergmann, a boilermaker by trade, and lawyer, is chief executive of the Kimberley Land Council during the controversial James Price Point gas hub negotiations. It’s an event that will tear the Broome community apart. Wayne’s story starts on Nyikina country and encompasses backbreaking station work, buried treasure, a Swedish bone thief and traditional magic love songs. His is an electrifying tale of resilience, determination and optimism, which shows what it takes to be an Aboriginal person walking in two cultures in a country where racism runs deep.

  Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz. Gibran’s book follows the final hours of the prophet Almustafa as he prepares to depart the city of Orphalese, offering distilled reflections on the fundamental forces of human existence—love, work, joy, sorrow, freedom, self-knowledge, and death. Each teaching arises from direct insight rather than doctrine, presenting life as an interwoven field of opposites whose tensions refine the soul. The text unfolds as a sequence of poetic addresses that cut through sentiment and moralism, pointing the reader toward inward clarity and responsibility.

  Reeling in the Queers - Tales of...

  Marking fifty years of the founding of an LGBTQ rights movement in Ireland, Reeling in the Queers explores the lesser-known stories of the fight for LGBTQ rights since 1974, beyond decriminalisation and Marriage Equality. From 1990s boy bands to the AIDS priest, Fr Bernárd Lynch, from the Belfast Lesbian Line to proud parenting, from the earliest Pride events to the last days of Alternative Miss Ireland, fourteen distinct moments map the changing social and cultural landscape of Ireland.
  These stories, from across the island of Ireland – and further afield – celebrate a strong community and its allies, and speak across the generations. Together, they tell a new story of the gains, losses, devastation and community rising from the ashes of defeat. It is a hugely enjoyable and insightful read for both those who lived through this movement and for those who enjoy its benefits today.
  Drawing from oral history as well as archives, Reeling in the Queers brings even more to life the great big queer tapestry in Ireland. Queer history in Ireland is Irish history and acknowledging and celebrating the light and the dark of it protects all of our futures as much as our pasts.

  The Complete History of Ancient...

  The story of Ancient Egypt begins along the fertile banks of the Nile River, where geography shaped the destiny of one of the world’s most iconic civilizations. The Nile provided more than just water—it was the lifeline that enabled agriculture, transportation, and trade, making permanent settlement possible in an otherwise arid desert. As early as 5000 BCE, small communities began to emerge, relying on the predictable flooding of the river to support grain cultivation. Over time, these settlements evolved into more complex societies, each developing distinct cultural and political practices. 
  The predynastic period saw the rise of two major regions: Upper Egypt in the south and Lower Egypt in the north. These regions were marked by different customs, burial practices, and artistic expressions, yet both shared a reverence for the Nile and its central role in life and death. Villages grew into city-states ruled by local chieftains, and as competition and alliances formed, a gradual move toward centralization began. Archaeological evidence, including pottery styles and tomb construction, shows increasing social stratification and technological innovation during this period. 
  The unification of Upper and Lower Egypt around 3100 BCE marks the beginning of pharaonic rule and the dynastic era. Traditionally attributed to a ruler named Narmer (also known as Menes), this event was not just a political milestone but also a cultural one. Narmer’s unification is immortalized on the Narmer Palette, a ceremonial artifact that symbolically represents the king’s authority over both lands. With unification came the birth of a centralized administration, standardized religious practices, and a single ruler who was seen not only as a political leader but also as a divine intermediary between the gods and the people.
