Book excerpt: Walking in People{u2019}s Worlds goes to the very heart of social work, offering students and professionals alike a reflexive exploration of the practical, emotional and spiritual components of social work practice. Examples from practitioners{u2019} experiences are provided throughout and include the often unseen, positive contribution of statutory child protection workers. Examples are analysed through the application of solution-focused, strengths-based and emotional intelligence theory. Strategies are offered to support and strengthen the ways that social workers can partner with children and families to bring about positive change. This book is intended for social workers, but it will also be useful to people working in wider social service areas, including counselling, especially with children and families. The examples used are drawn from statutory child protection and health social work.

Book excerpt: An Indigenous teen girl is caught between two worlds, both real and virtual, in the YA fantasy debut from bestselling Indigenous author Wab Kinew. Perfect for fans of Ready Player One and the Otherworld series. Bugz is caught between two worlds. In the real world, she's a shy and self-conscious Indigenous teen who faces the stresses of teenage angst and life on the Rez. But in the virtual world, her alter ego is not just confident but dominant in a massively multiplayer video game universe. Feng is a teen boy who has been sent from China to live with his aunt, a doctor on the Rez, after his online activity suggests he may be developing extremist sympathies. Meeting each other in real life, as well as in the virtual world, Bugz and Feng immediately relate to each other as outsiders and as avid gamers. And as their connection is strengthened through their virtual adventures, they find that they have much in common in the real world, too: both must decide what to do in the face of temptations and pitfalls, and both must grapple with the impacts of family challenges and community trauma. But betrayal threatens everything Bugz has built in the virtual world, as well as her relationships in the real world, and it will take all her newfound strength to restore her friendship with Feng and reconcile the parallel aspects of her life: the traditional and the mainstream, the east and the west, the real and the virtual.

Book excerpt: A “beautifully crafted” novel of two sisters’ lives, spanning from 1950s Ireland to modern-day America (Colum McCann, author of Let the Great World Spin). Greta Cahill never believed she would leave her village in west Ireland. Yet one day she found herself on a ship bound for New York, along with her sister, Johanna, and a boy named Michael Ward, a son of itinerant tinkers. Back home, her family hadn’t expressed much confidence in her abilities, but Greta discovers that in America she can fall in love, earn a living, and build a life. She longs to return and show her family what she has made of herself—but that could mean revealing a secret about her past to her children. So she carefully keeps her life in New York separate from the life she once loved in Ireland, torn from the people she is closest to. Decades later, she discovers that her children, with the best of intentions, have conspired to unite the worlds she has so painstakingly kept apart. And though the Ireland of her memory may bear little resemblance to that of present day, she fears it is still possible to lose all . . . “A compelling drama of transatlantic Irish life.” —Billy Collins “Marries a deliciously old-fashioned style of storytelling with a fresh take on the immigrant experience . . . A warm, involving family drama.” —Booklist

Book excerpt: With a Foreword by Krista Tippett–a poignant and beautiful collection of conversations and presentation from John O’Donohue’s work with close friend and former radio broadcaster John Quinn John O'Donohue, beloved author of To Bless the Space Between Us, is widely recognized as one of the most charismatic and inspirational enduring voices on the subjects of spirituality and Celtic mysticism. These timeless exchanges, collated and introduced by Quinn, span a number of years and explore themes such as imagination, landscape, the medieval mystic Meister Eckhart, aging, and death. Presented in O'Donohue's inimitable lyrical style, and filled with rich insights that will feed the "unprecedented spiritual hunger" he observed in modern society, Walking in Wonder is a welcome tribute to a much-loved author whose work still touches the lives of millions around the world.

Frustrated and angry, he rides to a mountain lake where he meets a Dakota native named Tatanka, who is also exiled from his tribe for refusing to adhere to tribal custom for braves who prefer men to women. They strike up a friendship, which readily turns to love. Their family is completed when a young Indian, Sleeps With Dogs, insists they take him with them on their search for a home. Their quest to find acceptance in either the white man's world or the native population is a difficult journey. Can two men who love each other find a place in the harsh reality of the western wilderness, or will they always be walking in two worlds?

Book excerpt: "[The author] tells the stories of twelve mixed-blood women who, steeped in the tradition of their Indian mothers but forced into the world of their white fathers, fought to find their identities in a rapidly changing world. In an era when most white women had limited opportunities outside the home, these mix-blood women often became nationally recognized leaders in the fight for Native American rights. They took the tools and training the whites provided and used them to help their people. They found differing paths--medicine, music, crafts, the classroom, the lecture hall, the stage, the written word--and walked strong and tall. These women did far more than survive; they extended a hand to help their people find a place in a hard new future."--Back cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manolo Frediani Lima is a businessman from southern Brazil. The hobbies he has are quite interesting: traveling and climbing mountains! The book "Walking Around the World" tells the story about his most exotic tourist adventures... The last one was in 2020 when he made the so coveted Three Passes trail in the Himalayas (the highest mountain range in the world). He just didn't imagine that after 140 km of hiking, most of it on beautiful snowy paths, his trip would end up becoming a distressing lockdown. He spent 21 days of tension and uncertainty in Lukla and Kathmandu (Nepal’s capital) between March and April, a time when several countries closed their borders due to the coronavirus pandemic. Manolo, however, was not there by accident. He had planned the trip since the previous year. So, even on the other side of the planet, away from family and friends, he tried to live the circumstances and take advantage of them. That's when something fantastic happened: he started writing... This book was born, therefore, from the improvised drafts of a Brazilian guy in trouble, and the result was stupendous. More than a travel story, this book is also an excellent guide for people of all ages who dreams one day making the big trip of their lives. When tourists went out of home with curiosity, willingness and planning skills they enjoy much more their trip, be it for adventure, studies or recreation. By having these qualities, Manolo could get to know different landscapes and customs outside Brazil. Such experiences allowed him to perfect his ''rough stone''. Move away from his comfort zone, routine and stress cause him an immense good. He ''recovered energy'', rethought and changed his lifestyle for the better. In these pages he tells what he saw and felt when climbing a mountain in Bolivia, walking through the ruins of Machu Picchu in Peru and exchanging studies in Portugal, Italy and England. Manolo is an itinerant! In this adrenaline search (and, later, moved by professional improvement), he witnessed a world full of economic, cultural and social contrasts. According to him, when crossing from West to East, he had another ''storm of lessons'' because of the unforgettable experiences in Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia and, mainly, in Nepal. Amid beautiful photos, comments on unmissable tourist spots and many reflections, Manolo reminds us that traveling is also having an encounter with ourselves and with a beautiful world, always waiting for us.

Download or read book Walking in the World as a Friend written by Nadine Clare Hoover and published by . This book was released on 2020-09 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quakers live our faith with integrity. In religious education, community events, or study groups, with young and old alike, listen with your 'child's mind' to embody Quaker practice, curious to see what will happen. Consider Quaker roles of minister, steward, and witness; experiences of convincement and conviction; experimenting with the Living Spirit in our lives; and engaging in an ecology of essential Quaker practices: worship, spiritual companions, Monthly Meeting, meetings of ministers, stewards, or witnesses, Yearly Meeting Faith and Practice, and bearing witness. This book and video series "encourages Friends to move beyond a cognitive faith into an experiential, everyday, in-every-way kind of Quaker faith--walking in this world as a Friend." Beth Collea "Amazing work capturing the true essence of Quakerism in words that speak across various experiences--radical, unsettling, real. I like the insistence that talking about it is not the same as experiencing it." Marty Grundy "This is profound, brilliant work." Sita Diehl
