  This study of the ancient historian’s work is “excellent . . . [A] rigorous and engaging introduction not only to Herodotus, but to many other Greek authors” (Times Literary Supplement). 
   
  In the fifth century BCE, Herodotus wrote the first known Western history to build on the tradition of Homeric storytelling, basing his text on empirical observations and arranging them systematically. Herodotus and the Question Why offers a comprehensive examination of the methods behind the Histories and the challenge of documenting human experiences, from the Persian Wars to cultural traditions. 
   
  In lively, accessible prose, Christopher Pelling explores such elements as reconstructing the mentalities of storyteller and audience alike; distinctions between the human and the divine; and the evolving concepts of freedom, democracy, and individualism. Pelling traces the similarities between Herodotus’s approach to physical phenomena (Why does the Nile flood?) and to landmark events (Why did Xerxes invade Greece? And why did the Greeks win?), delivering a fascinating look at the explanatory process itself. The cultural forces that shaped Herodotus’s thinking left a lasting legacy for us, making Herodotus and the Question Why especially relevant as we try to record and narrate the stories of our time and to fully understand them.

  Everything we do or thing about emanates from within our mind. It’s how we perceive life, love, cry, shout, smile, enjoy and all the rest, it happens nowhere else. No excuses as to background, circumstances, situations etc, all rubbish. We can be anything if we want, frequently the biggest problem we will ever have to face is ourselves.

  "Shadow Dancing" is illuminating and transformative, with a passionate plea to shift from the conventional medical model to a more nuanced, trauma-aware, and integrated methodology. 
  Drawing from his rich experiences as a nurse in addiction treatment centres in the Netherlands and the UK, Paul du Buf champions the importance of a holistic understanding of addiction, exploring the complex interplay between trauma and addiction and articulating the significant steps required for services to transition successfully into becoming trauma-aware. 
  "Shadow Dancing" urges the inclusion of aspects of the Polyvagal model, Integral theory, and Internal Family Systems model into addiction treatments, adding depth to its narrative. This work is the culmination of Paul du Buf's years of knowledge and skill, amalgamated into a compelling blueprint for the future of addiction treatment. Number of pages: 110.
