rif. B9780804010184Paperback / softback. New. "Mysticism is peculiar to the mountainbred" Frank Waters once told an interviewer for Psychology Today. And in Mountain Dialogues available for the first time in paperback the mountainbred Waters proves it true. Ranging over such diverse subjects as silence spirits time change and the sacred mountains of the world Waters sounds again and again the radiant mystic theme of man's inherent wholeness and his oneness with the cosmos. Writing in Western American Literature Charles L. Adams said "In Mountain Dialogues we see Frank Waters acknowledging his sources--major influences on a great American thinker and writer. Waters weaves together threads of these influences adds his own thought and presents us with a truly cosmic overview. This overview is thoroughly that of an American 'Westerner'; it also is one that merits international consideration." And as the Bloomsbury Review wrote: "Mountain Dialogues is more than just a collection of personal essays. It is an 'evolutionist's handbook' for the sons and daughters of the new West a guide for those who would transcend the limitations of Western civilization." paperback

rif. B9780335248896Paperback / softback. New. Teachers have never been under so much pressure. High stakes accountability has led to many teachers considering leaving a profession they once loved or resigning. Many cite workload and a lack of professional respect and reward as reasons for their disillusionment. Teachers are suffering from anxiety and depression and in the worst cases Burnout. The headteachers in this book have reversed this trend by implementing a whole-school culture of staff wellbeing and mental health. It has taken courage determination and authenticity to strip back the tasks of teaching and focus on what is key in any school - relationships not only between the children and their teachers but also between the staff themselves. This book is headteachers'/senior leaders' accounts in their own words of how focusing on wellbeing and mental health has transformed their schools. paperback
