  Foster children are among the most resilient yet vulnerable members of our society. Their experiences often include trauma, instability, and emotional wounds that shape their sense of self and their ability to navigate the world. Transitional homes, which provide temporary care and support between placements or as a bridge to independent living, are critical in their journey toward healing. These homes offer not just a roof over their heads, but the chance to rebuild trust, confidence, and a sense of belonging. 
  However, the needs of foster children are complex and require specialized care. These children may have faced neglect, abuse, or upheaval, and as a result, their emotional and psychological healing requires patience, empathy, and understanding. The trauma they have experienced can manifest in many ways, from attachment issues to difficulties in socializing and managing emotions. Supporting foster children in these transitional spaces means addressing these deep-rooted issues while fostering a nurturing environment where they can heal and grow. 
  This book is designed to provide guidance for those who are working with foster children in transitional homes. Whether you are a caregiver, social worker, educator, or mental health professional, you play a pivotal role in these children’s lives. It offers insights into how to create a safe, stable, and supportive environment that allows children to feel seen, heard, and valued. The key is not simply to care for these children in the traditional sense, but to understand their unique needs and meet them with compassion and dedication.

  Power is never given freely—it is taken, protected, and mastered.
  Written for rulers navigating danger and ambition, The Prince strips leadership down to its hard realities. Machiavelli explores how power is gained, maintained, and lost, arguing that effectiveness often matters more than virtue. With bold clarity, he examines deception, authority, fear, loyalty, and the price of control in a world ruled by uncertainty.
  
  Regarded as "the most influential political treatise ever written," this classic has shaped leaders, thinkers, and strategists for centuries. Its insights remain unsettling, provocative, and strikingly relevant in modern politics, business, and leadership.
  
  If you want to understand how power truly works—and why appearances can matter more than intentions—this book is essential reading.
  
  Open the book—and confront the realities behind leadership and power.

  Since the 1950s, scientists have attempted to harness nuclear fusion—the process that creates the Sun's energy—to generate near-limitless amounts of electricity. But the fact that we still have no fusion power plants is testament to the complexities of the challenge. Now, the deepening climate crisis means that researchers around the world are in a race to create a mini-Sun here on Earth. The glittering prize is an energy source that emits no greenhouse gases and could solve energy equity and supply issues at a stroke. Sharon Ann Holgate, a former Young Professional Physicist of the Year, tells the compelling story of the ongoing scientific quest for a revolutionary new era of green-energy production.

  Jose "Pepin" Almeida is an unlikely hero. He never acted in the movies, never threw the winning pass, never sat in high office. Even his involvement in the event that u-turned his life, the Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961, failed and became a national embarrassment. 
  He laments, "We were in a helpless and hopeless situation." But Pepin Almeida soon, out of necessity, created his own hope. Denied all tangible things- clothes, family, food, he discovered his soul, his only true possession.
