Book excerpt: Tom was born with Asperger (or Asperger's) Syndrome, a form of Autism that affects both mental and physical development. He changed from a happy, achieving nine-year-old to an uncommunicative adolescent requiring psychiatric treatment after years of bullying by his peers because he was different. A minor shoplifting offence and the resulting court case brought the psychiatrist's report to the attention of Tom's parents. Failing to recognise bullying as a probable cause for Tom's behaviour it blamed instead his parents for "poor understanding of their son's limitations, consequently they have placed unrealistic expectations upon him leading to his deep sense of failure." Very alarmed by this, the parents were further disturbed on being refused a meeting with the psychiatrist to discuss their concerns, a major result of which was the mother's decision to write this book. Written as a series of letters (mainly fictional to highlight the author's frustrations) to Tom's psychiatrist, Dear Psychiatrist is Jennie Robert's perspective on her son's case history; a perspective that details not only the difficulties that Tom suffered through his handicap, but also the extra (and perhaps more disabling) difficulties imposed by the bullying and the unhelpful attitudes encountered from some members of the teaching, medical, psychological and psychiatric professions. This intensely moving mother's account of the childhood and adolescence of her handicapped son is a must read for those working with special needs children and their families, or for parents in the same position as the author. Having first-hand experience, Jennie Roberts recognises that parents should be considered a valuable and indeed, vital source of information when any sort of discussion about their child takes place. In her Foreword, Baroness Warnock's concluding hope is that "The book should be compulsory reading for anyone entering training whether as a teacher, doctor, social worker, psychologist or psychiatrist". It is no less an essential source of support for parents who are having difficulties with the professional help they have received. These sentiments are given poignant endorsement by the tragic circumstance of Tom's suicide in November 1994, his final letter making it clear that his unhappy school experience was a major contributory factor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1914 young husbands and sons set off in high spirits for the grand adventure of war, a war promised to be over by Christmas. Little do they or their loved ones realise that four long years of horror lay ahead. The First World War shatters the peaceful lives of newlywed Australian immigrants, Walter and Winifred. Their families lie over the ocean in England, their brothers fight on the battlefields of Europe. Torn by loyalties, they set off on a perilous sea journey during wartime, shortly after the sinking of the Lusitania by German U-boats. But their neighbour, Lisbette, a girl with a mysterious past, must stay to live in anguish in Australia, unable to return to her native France. The scene shifts from Australia to Gallipoli and the battlefields of Flanders, culminating at the mystical Mont-Saint-Michel off the Normandy coast. Here, Effie, one of many tiny victims of the war, finds refuge in the centuries-old monastery. It is all a matter of time. Will authorities find Effie’s parents at the war’s end? How long can Winifred’s brother, Gustave, survive the trenches? And can returning soldiers escape the deadly grip of the Spanish flu? Whether read as a stand-alone novel or sequel to Whispers Through Time, this drama will tear at your heartstrings, especially as it is based on a true story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Handbook of Research on STEM Education represents a groundbreaking and comprehensive synthesis of research and presentation of policy within the realm of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. What distinguishes this Handbook from others is the nature of integration of the disciplines that is the founding premise for the work – all chapters in this book speak directly to the integration of STEM, rather than discussion of research within the individual content areas. The Handbook of Research on STEM Education explores the most pressing areas of STEM within an international context. Divided into six sections, the authors cover topics including: the nature of STEM, STEM learning, STEM pedagogy, curriculum and assessment, critical issues in STEM, STEM teacher education, and STEM policy and reform. The Handbook utilizes the lens of equity and access by focusing on STEM literacy, early childhood STEM, learners with disabilities, informal STEM, socio-scientific issues, race-related factors, gender equity, cultural-relevancy, and parental involvement. Additionally, discussion of STEM education policy in a variety of countries is included, as well as a focus on engaging business/industry and teachers in advocacy for STEM education. The Handbook’s 37 chapters provide a deep and meaningful landscape of the implementation of STEM over the past two decades. As such, the findings that are presented within provide the reader with clear directions for future research into effective practice and supports for integrated STEM, which are grounded in the literature to date.
