    Life is filled with challenges, and navigating its complexities often feels overwhelming. Emotions can surge unpredictably, relationships may strain under pressure, and self-doubt can leave you feeling stuck. For many, these struggles lead to cycles of distress, leaving them wondering how to regain control. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers a path forward—a way to balance emotions, face difficulties, and build a life filled with meaning and purpose. 
    DBT was originally developed by Dr. Marsha Linehan to help individuals struggling with intense emotions and self-destructive behaviors. Over time, it has evolved into a comprehensive therapeutic approach, empowering people to manage their emotions, improve their relationships, and handle life’s challenges with greater resilience. Unlike traditional therapies that focus solely on change, DBT embraces a balanced perspective, combining the acceptance of where you are now with the tools to create meaningful change. This dual focus is at the heart of its transformative power. 
    One of the most significant aspects of DBT is its emphasis on practical skills. These skills are divided into four key areas: mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Together, they form a toolkit designed to help you stay grounded, manage overwhelming emotions, navigate crises, and foster healthier connections with others. The beauty of DBT lies in its flexibility—you don’t need to master everything at once. Instead, you can start small, incorporating skills that resonate with you and building from there.

    Criminal Fraud and Election...

    Deliberate mischaracterization of political opponents and their policies has always been a part of politics; however, lying, dishonesty, and distortion of the facts remain morally wrong and have the potential to obstruct important political interests. For example, a false or misleading claim publicized about an election candidate may lead someone to lose an election that they might otherwise have won. So, does—and should—the law seek to provide protection from the risk of this happening? 
     
     
     
    In attempting to answer this question, Jeremy Horder draws a key distinction between what is called "political viewpoint" fraud and "electoral participation" fraud. In the interests of protecting freedom of speech, false or misleading claims (disinformation) involving political viewpoint content should be tolerated, not only by the criminal law but also by the internet platforms which host political content. By contrast, in the interests of preserving the integrity of democratic electoral processes, disinformation involving electoral participation information should be prohibited by the criminal law and censored by internet platforms. This book explains how the criminal law in various jurisdictions frequently prohibits false or misleading political claims falling into both categories of disinformation, instead of concentrating on electoral participation fraud.

    “An excellent look at how the Police accomplished success . . . West is especially good at examining how the band used the nascent MTV to define themselves.” ―Publishers Weekly   During the 1980s, The Police were one of the biggest bands in the world. Yet after only five albums—and at the peak of their popularity—they disbanded, and Sting began a solo career that made him a global pop star. Today, artists from Puff Daddy to Gwen Stefani credit The Police and Sting as major influences on their own work.   In this book, Aaron J. West explores the cultural and musical impact of Stewart Copeland, Andy Summers, and Sting. West details the distinctive hybrid character of The Police’s musical output, which would also characterize Sting’s post-Police career. Sting’s long-lived solo career embodies the power of the artful appropriation of musical styles, while capitalizing on the modern realities of pop music consumption. The Police—and Sting in particular—were pioneers in music video, modern label marketing, global activism, and the internationalization of pop music.  Sting and The Police: Walking in Their Footsteps is a feast for fans—and by placing the band within its various musical, cultural, commercial, and historic contexts, it’s also fascinating reading for anyone interested in global popular music culture.

    Written by former school-leader Julia Silver, Love Tutoring: Be the tutor your student needs is an essential guide to professional development for all tutors. Based on her Foundations of Effective Tutoring course, Julia shares an enthusiastic and enabling vision of tutoring as a burgeoning space within the educational landscape.
    At a time when teacher retention and pupil attendance are at an all-time low, tutoring provides a gentler, more person-centred and holistic approach to teaching and learning. Once considered a Plan B option, tutoring is fast becoming a legitimate career choice.
    The rollout of the UK government's National Tutoring Programme has brought tutoring into the spotlight. Previously considered 'shadow-schooling' over the last decade, a quarter of all 11-16-year-olds have received private tuition in England and Wales (rising to 42% in London). But for tutoring to take its place in the future of education, and become an affordable option for all our students, we need more, and better qualified tutors.
    Combining theory and practice, this book provides tutors with a solid grounding in the pedagogy of tutoring. Julia takes the big ideas from evidence-based practice in teaching and learning today and makes them relevant and accessible to the ways tutors work.
    Backed up by real-life examples and interviews with professional tutors, this book offers a broad insight into the tutoring profession and explores the different ways to make tutoring a career that you love. Love Tutoring is an invitation, a provocation, and a call to action. This book goes right to the heart of the tutoring relationship and will give every tutor a roadmap for becoming the tutor their student needs.
    Suitable for tutors of all ages, subjects and levels of expertise, as well as interested parents, agencies, schools or other organisations who employ tutors.

    Help students use their voices to build an equitable and just society. 
     
     
     
    Years of political violence and protests against injustice have revived interest in teaching civics in schools. The problem? Civic education—as it currently exists—privileges systems, not students. It promotes incremental change within a broken democracy rather than responding to the youth-led movements that call for the abolition of inequitable social structures. What will it take to prepare young people for the just future they are fighting for? 
     
     
     
    Civics for the World to Come offers educators a framework for designing the critical civic education that our students deserve. Synthesizing perspectives on democratic life from critical race theory, ethnic studies, Afrofuturism, and critical literacy, the book presents key practices for cultivating youth civic agency grounded in equity and justice. The authors explore five world-building civic skills (Inquiry, Storytelling, Imagination, Networking, and Advocacy) and introduce listeners to real learning communities where students and educators are transforming themselves and society.
