The Rogue Agent: Accidental Sorcerer, Witches Incorporated, Wizard Squared
BOOK 1: THE ACCIDENTAL SORCERER Gerald Dunwoody is a wizard. Just not a particularly good one. He's blown up a factory, lost his job, and there's a chance that he's not really a Third Grade wizard after all. So it's off to New Ottosland to be the new Court Wizard for King Lional. It's a shame that King Lional isn't the vain, self-centered young man he appeared to be. With a Princess in danger, a talking bird who can't stay out of trouble, and a kingdom to save, Gerald soon suspects that he might be out of his depth. And if he can't keep this job, how will he ever become the wizard he was destined to be. . . BOOK 2: WITCHES INCORPORATED It's a case of espionage, skullduggery and serious unple...
Wizard Undercover
There may be trouble ahead . . . Wedding bells are ringing for the constantly battling nations of Splotze and Borovnik, and the upcoming royal nuptials could at last put an end to their dangerous hostilities. But in a development that hardly bodes well, one of Gerald's fellow janitors goes missing -- after delivering a dire warning of danger surrounding the marriage treaty. So Gerald must embark on a dangerous mission to uncover the troublemakers, before wedded bliss becomes international war. But going undercover isn't as easy as it looks, even with Melissande and Emmerabiblia for camouflage. Soon Gerald finds himself fighting for his life as well as world peace.
The Crafting of Grief
Many books on grief lay out a model to be followed, either for bereaved persons to live through or for professionals to practice, and usually follow some familiar prescriptions for what people should do to reach an accommodation with loss. The Crafting of Grief is different: it focuses on conversations that help people chart their own path through grief. Authors Hedtke and Winslade argue convincingly that therapists and counselors can support people more by helping them craft their own responses to bereavement rather than trying to squeeze experiences into a model. In the pages of this book, readers will learn how to develop lines of inquiry based on the concept of continuing bonds, and they’ll discover ways to use these ideas to help the bereaved craft stories that remember loved ones’ lives.
A Genealogy of the Good and Critique of Hubris
In the first postmodern, genealogical history of social work, this book identifies common practices of a particular era to inform the description of a cultural and philosophical framework that allows the reader to "step inside the shoes" of people from that era and understand the practices through their eyes. These insights are then utilized to promote moral reflection of current practices of social welfare and hopefully avoid moral lapses that may arise from our present biases of understanding.
The Interpreter
In 'The Interpreter,' Philip Gibbs explores the intricacies of human nature, set against the backdrop of broader societal intricacies. As the title suggests, the novel revolves around the theme of interpretation, both linguistic and cultural, weaving a complex narrative that unravels the barriers to communication and understanding. Crafted with an eye for psychological nuance and a deft hand in literary style, the work fits neatly within the tradition of early 20th-century literature, marked by its exploration of individual consciousness and social identity. DigiCat Publishing's edition ensures the preservation of Gibbs's original prose, bringing a classic sensibility to modern readership wi...
Practicing Narrative Mediation
Practicing Narrative Mediation provides mediation practitioners with practical narrative approaches that can be applied to a wide variety of conflict resolution situations. Written by John Winslade and Gerald Monk—leaders in the narrative therapy movement—the book contains suggestions and illustrative examples for applying the proven narrative technique when working with restorative conferencing and mediation in organizations, schools, health care, divorce cases, employer and employee problems, and civil and international conflicts. Practicing Narrative Mediation also explores the most recent research available on discursive positioning and exposes the influence of the moment-to-moment factors that are playing out in conflict situations. The authors include new concepts derived from narrative family work such as "absent but implicit," "double listening," and "outsider-witness practices."
Narrative Mediation
In this groundbreaking book, John Winslade and Gerald Monk -- leaders in the narrative therapy movement-introduce an innovative conflict resolution paradigm that is a revolutionary departure from the traditional problem-solving, interest-based model of resolving disputes. The narrative mediation approach encourages the conflicting parties to tell their personal "story" of the conflict and reach resolution through a profound understanding of the context of their individual stories. The authors map out the theoretical foundations of this new approach to conflict resolution and show how to apply specific techniques for the practical application of narrative mediation to a wide-variety of conflict situations.
