In The Making of a Counsellor, the twelve contributors show how their classroom learning of theory and technique applied to their subsequent counselling work and how this encounter between theory and practice, knowledge and experience transformed them from students into professionals. All the essays portray something of both their struggle to become professional counsellors and their delight in the efficacy of their new learning. First, the contributors demonstrate the versatility of psychoanalytically based counselling, as they describe how ideas and techniques are used in settings

An erudite companion to Anthony Powell’s 12-volume masterwork, A Dance to the Music of Time, which The NewYorker hailed as "one of the most important works of fiction since the Second World War."A Dance to the Music of Time is a landmark of 20th-century literature—but as the reader cavorts through the 12-volume novel alongside the narrator Nicholas Jenkins, it soon becomes apparent that he, too, confuses dates and events. Here, Hilary Spurling places every detail in its proper place. A magnificent database of Powell’s imagination and England’s cultural landscape, Invitation

The chapter on inequality demonstrates his interests in both Kenya, where he has a college, as well as the UK where he has undertaken social research. His backgrou

Dutch artist Aernout Mik’s moving-image installations meld filmmaking, sculpture and architecture into experiences that are at once compelling and unsettling, irrational yet plausible. The artist designs and constructs architectural spaces that hold his moving images, making the viewer’s physical relationship to the piece a critical component of the overall experience. By interrogating the most basic ideas of narrative and reality and rejecting classical cinematic ideals, Mik creates works that are rich in allusion but subversive of codes. Published to accompany the artist’s

The Dispossessed has been described by political thinker Andre Gorz as ’The most striking description I know of the seductions--and snares--of self-managed communist or, in other words, anarchist society.’ To date, however, the radical social, cultural, and political ramifications of Le Guin’s multiple award-winning novel remain woefully under explored. Editors Laurence Davis and Peter Stillman right this state of affairs in the first ever collection of original essays devoted to Le Guin’s novel. Among the topics covered in this wide-ranging, international and interdisc
