  Survive Grief & Come Back to...

  Paula J Roscoe

  Two weeks after my son died, I picked up a pencil. Not because I knew it would help. Because I did not know how else to survive. 
  Writing saved my life. And what I learned in the years that followed, as a counsellor, as a grief specialist, as a holistic therapist and spiritual coach, as a bereaved mother who had to find a way back to life, became this book. 
  Survive Grief and Come Back to Life is not written from a safe distance. It is written from inside the wound. It covers the grieving process, the five stages of grief, complicated grief, and how grief affects the body and the spirit as well as the mind. It includes self-help writing exercises because words have power, and practical guidance on coping with overwhelming emotion, navigating grief in your relationship, dealing with loss of sleep, and honouring your loved one while finding your way back to yourself. 
  It also holds the spiritual truth that grief often reveals: that healing goes deeper than the mind, that love does not end when life does, and that there are guides and graces available to those who are ready to receive them. 
  This book is for the woman who is at least a year into her grief and still cannot find solid ground. It is for the bereaved mother who has tried everything else. It is for the survivor of abuse or trauma who is grieving something that has no funeral. It is for anyone who needs proof that it is possible to come back to life. 
  Not because the loss gets smaller. Because you learn to carry it differently. 
  International bestseller in the UK, USA and Australia. Award-winning author. Grief Guru. Survivor.

  In Tending the Heart of Virtue, Vigen Guroian illuminates the power of classic tales and their impact on the moral imagination. He demonstrates how these stories teach the virtues through vivid depictions of the struggle between good and evil, while he also unveils components of the good, the true, and the beautiful in plot and character. With clarity and elegance, Guroian reads deeply into the classic stories. He demonstrates how these stories challenge and enliven the moral imaginations of children. And he shows the listener how to get "inside" of classic stories and communicate their lessons to the child. 
   
   
   
  For more than two decades Tending the Heart of Virtue has been embraced by parents, guardians, and teachers for whom the stories it discusses are not only beloved classics but repositories of moral wisdom. This revised and expanded second edition includes three new chapters in which Guroian inteprets such stories as Hans Christian Andersen's The Ugly Duckling, the Grimms' Cinderella, and John Ruskin's The King of the Golden River.

  The discovery of Endurance briefly swept the anxiety and rancour of 2022 from the headlines of the world, and new generations thrilled again to one of the greatest tales of all time. 
   
  Acclaimed South African writer Darrel Bristow-Bovey has a deeply personal relationship with the story of Endurance and in this lyrical, loving journey into past and present, into humanity and the natural world, above and below the Antarctic ice, he revisits the famous story from a contemporary perspective, wondering why it seems to mean more today than ever before, and exploring our changing relationship with ourselves and the ice, and with our shared story of survival. 
   
  Drawing on literature, natural history, personal memoir and the thrilling epics of polar adventure, this is finally a celebration of the human spirit and the delivering powers of calculated optimism. If the story of Ernest Shackleton and Endurance tells us anything, it's that in the face of self-inflicted natural disaster, when there's no one to help us but ourselves, we can still pull off a miracle or two. From the bottom of the Weddell sea, Endurance still whispers that not all is lost, and not forever.

  Strength in Numbers - How Polls...

  G. Elliott Morris

  Public opinion polling is the ultimate democratic process; it gives every person an equal voice in letting elected leaders know what they need and want. But in the eyes of the public, polls today are tarnished. Recent election forecasts have routinely missed the mark and media coverage of polls has focused solely on predicting winners and losers. 
   
   
   
  In Strength in Numbers, data journalist G. Elliott Morris argues that the larger purpose of political polls is to improve democracy, not just predict elections. Whether used by interest groups, the press, or politicians, polling serves as a pipeline from the governed to the government, giving citizens influence they would otherwise lack. No one who believes in democracy can afford to give up on polls; they should commit, instead, to understanding them better. 
   
   
   
  Morris takes listeners from the first semblance of data-gathering in the ancient world through to the development of modern-day scientific polling. He explains how the internet and "big data" have solved many challenges in polling—and created others. He covers the rise of polling aggregation and methods of election forecasting, reveals how data can be distorted and misrepresented, and demystifies the uncertainty of polling. Acknowledging where polls have gone wrong in the past, Morris charts a path for the industry's future.
