  Late in 1944, thirteen U.S. B-24 bomber crews bailed from their cabins over the Yugoslavian wilderness. Bloodied and disoriented after a harrowing strike against the Third Reich, the pilots took refuge with the Partisan underground. But the Americans were far from safe. Holed up in a village barely able to feed its citizens, encircled by Nazis, and left abandoned after a team of British secret agents failed to secure their escape, the airmen were left with little choice. It was either flee or be killed.

  “Canada’s best-known voice of dissent.” — CBC
  		 
  “It’s time we listened to the Maude Barlows of the world.” — CNN
  		 
  In this timely book, Barlow counters the prevailing atmosphere of pessimism that surrounds us and offers lessons of hope that she has learned from a lifetime of activism. She has been a linchpin in three major movements in her life: second-wave feminism, the battle against free trade and globalization, and the global fight for water justice. From each of these she draws her lessons of hope, emphasizing that effective activism is not really about the goal, rather it is about building a movement and finding like-minded people to carry the load with you. Barlow knows firsthand how hard fighting for change can be. But she also knows that change does happen and that hope is the essential ingredient.

  This is an education book that is like no other that has gone before. It won't tell you what to do minute by minute, lesson by lesson, day by day. It won't batter you with impenetrable research or tell you what you must think. You won't even find a scheme of work in it some planning ideas, for sure, even a template or two, but there's no spoon-feeding here. It's just a book that invites you to consider where you are in your own educational journey. It's a book to get youbothered.
  Botheredness is a word Hywel Roberts uses to sum up the kind of authentic care and adult positioning that is real and deliberate and gets children and young people on board with learning. It is the holy grail of teaching and something that will both significantly improve your enjoyment of teaching and benefit your classes enormously.
  This book is therefore an exploration of the road less travelled, backed up with Hywel's own experiences, reflections and research down the rabbit hole of contemporary education. It's about the reinstatement of professional integrity, the teacher as storyteller, and the need for our professional imaginations to be nurtured and curated. Hywel sets out to help teachers enhance their understanding of what it means to lead learning and thinking, to stand beside children as well as in front of them, whilst developing their knowledge acquisition with compassion, warmth and optimism.
  If you are looking for an education book that will inspire not dictate, that will entertain, challenge and fire up your imagination in equal measure,that allows you to think beyond a path laid out by scripted lessons, downloadable schemes and quick-fix fads, then this is the book for you.
  Providing clear strategies around imaginative and effective planning, supported by genuine examples of powerful classroom work from primary, special and secondary settings, this book is an essential guide to reclaiming your professional warmth, passion, and care - your botherednesss - in the classroom. Written by a travelling teacher and film buff who's on a mission to put botheredness into classrooms everywhere.
  Suitable for teachers, teaching assistants and school leaders, as well as other education professionals.
