Taylor & Francis Ltd Draw on Your Relationships
Book SynopsisDraw on Your Relationships is a bestselling resource to help people of all ages express, communicate and deal more effectively with their emotions through drawing. Built around five key themes, each section contains a simple picture exercise with clear objectives, instructions and suggestions for development. The picture activities have been carefully designed to help ease the process of both talking about feelings and exploring life choices, by trying out alternatives safely on paper. This will help to create clarity and new perspectives as a step towards positive action. Offering a broad range of exercises which can be adapted for any ability or age from middle childhood onwards, this unique book explores a range of emotions surrounding a person's important life experiences, key memories, relationships, best times, worst times and who they are as a person. This is an essential resource for therapists, educators, counsellors and anyone who engages other people in coTrade ReviewJulia Bird, Director of ThriveI am a founding director of a company that supports approximately 1,800 adults working in education to understand if a child has emotional developmental interruptions and what to do to make a difference. We train many teachers and other adults working in schools. Margot Sunderland’s books are recommended reading for those who attend our courses. Our trainees find the Draw On books very helpful in training and then also with their children - not just those children identified for special help. They deal with universal life themes relevant for all. I particularly like the theoretical explanation mixed with superb, doable activities/exercises and copyable handouts.Margot is an acknowledged expert in her field and her passion to make such important understandings and ways of working with troubled children accessible to ordinary people - parents, teachers, support workers - is manifest in the old excellent editions. Her suggestions for the new editions for both books are really exciting. I certainly will recommend the new editions to the people with whom I work.What is needed are work books that give the basic theoretical understanding - e.g. why using imagery is a potent way of supporting children to process feelings - with very usable activities that ordinary people can use to great effect with their children or with the children with whom they work.The addition of the cards will help adults open the conversation with children/young people about difficult feelings. These are a real improvement on the books as they stand now. To have images that are so evocative will enhance the dialogue and give opportunities for all involved to tickle the imagination and make more sense and help the children digest their emotional responses to life situations that cause them such pain and difficulty.The new suggestions will take the work with children from labelling feelings without a real connection to deeper meaning to an integration of feelings, imagination and language that deepen awareness and supports emotional development.The cards will not go out of date as I imagine they will illustrate life’s difficulties that are timeless.I absolutely support the need for updated editions of these superb books and think the cards to be incredibly helpful in supporting children to tell their stories and process trauma.Table of ContentsINTRODUCTION • How to use this book• Why use drawings and images to speak about feelings?• How to work safely• Key rules and guidelines in helping someone to speak about feelings• About sandplay and how to use itYOU AND YOUR RELATIONSHIPS • You, your relationships, your life• Encouragers and discouragers in my life (past and present) • People in your life, as gardens • The cocktail party• Your relationships as walls, bridges, comfortable sofas & take off • Museum of too alone • My childhood memories: People as places• Relationship riches DEAD, DEPRIVING, DRAINING, DISAPPOINTING RELATIONSHIPS • My Relationship: Take off or stuck on the runway?• To leave or to stay? • The ‘nothing much happening’ times • A relationship that’s holding me back • People who energise.

Cambridge University Press The Cambridge Handbook of Creativity and Emotions
Book SynopsisWritten by leading and emergent experts studying creativity and emotions across a range of disciplines, this Handbook addresses the role of emotions in creativity. It covers existing research and proposes new directions for future research.Trade Review'This handbook is a must read to anyone seeking the most comprehensive reference to date on the topic of creativity and emotions. It offers an outstanding coverage of the key issues on the topic, and a stunning demonstration of the complementarity of perspectives, by leaders in this field.' Baptiste Barbot, Université Catholique de Louvain, Belgium'A creative process is an emotional roller-coaster. The Cambridge Handbook of Creativity and Emotions will take you on a long ride through the scientific study of creative persons in several contexts, including school and work, while contemplating their related affective, emotional and motivational states and abilities. Enjoy the ride!' Giovanni Emanuele Corazza, University of Bologna, Italy'Like all good handbooks, The Cambridge Handbook of Creativity and Emotions pulls together world-class researchers who are at the cutting edge of a field of study (creativity and emotion) that is lacking a high-level summary of what the field is about and why it is important. This book fills that void.' Gregory J. Feist, San Jose State University, USA'A delightful read for anyone interested in uncovering a different and often overlooked side of creativity - its deep connection to emotion and to human ways of experiencing the world. Comprehensive in its coverage and accessible in its approach, this handbook is set to become an essential resource for creativity and emotion researchers alike.' Vlad P. Glaveanu, Webster University Geneva, Switzerland and University of Bergen, Norway'Emotions offer an essential key to unlock the mysteries of creativity. This handbook provides an up-to-date view, examining person-centered, process-centered, developmental, and methodological issues in a wide range of contexts. For a 360-degree vantage point on the emotion-creativity connection, this Handbook is a must see.' Todd Lubart, Professor of Psychology, Université Paris Cité, France and President of ISSCI, International Society for the Study of Creativity and Innovation'The conventional wisdom is that the important topic of affect and creativity is understudied. This Handbook provides convincing evidence the conventional wisdom as it involves emotion and creativity is not only wrong, but wildly so. Both basic and applied creativity research involving emotion is thriving, and the handbook's impressive mix of scholars and practitioners from around the world provide insights about studying emotions and creativity, how emotions influence the creativity process across several domains, and how emotions interact with other affective constructs to influence and be influenced by creativity, among many other topics. Anyone studying emotions and creativity or applying this research to practice should keep this handbook within easy reach.' Jonathan A. Plucker, Julian C. Stanley Professor of Talent Development, John Hopkins University, USA'For decades, investigators have explored the connection between emotional experience and creativity. How do our emotions inform the creative process? How do they help us to appreciate others' creativity? In the first and only handbook of its kind, Ivcevic, Hoffman, and Kaufman have collected together well-rendered essays addressing these and other questions from fields as diverse as affective neuroscience, child development, and personality psychology. An excellent resource!' Peter Salovey, Chris Argyris Professor of Psychology and President of Yale University, Yale University, USA'This handbook brings together the leading scholars worldwide on the study of the relationship between creativity and emotions. It is written in a way that researchers not only in psychology, but in other fields studying creativity, can understand. It brilliantly covers the gamut of topics in this field, and masterfully presents information about creativity and emotion that will make it an indispensable guide to anyone who wants to understand why they, or others, can feel so very creative one day and yet barren of creative ideas the next.'

Cambridge University Press Dyslexia in Higher Education
Book SynopsisPeople can best help dyslexic students once they understand dyslexia''s association with anxiety and effective coping strategies, both cognitively and emotionally. By highlighting the perspectives of dyslexic students, this book evidences the prevalence of anxiety in dyslexic communities. The shared experience from a range of dyslexic learners pinpoints best practice models and helps combat the isolation felt by many with learning difficulties. The author targets academic areas where students struggle, offering techniques to overcome these barriers. Such obstacles are not always due to cognitive factors but may be associated with negative experiences, leading to fear and uncertainty. Recounting these sticking points through student voices, rather than from a staff viewpoint, enables readers to find meaningful solutions to dyslexia-related problems. Through this dynamic methodology, the book shows researchers and practitioners how to understand dyslexic needs on an emotional level, whilTrade Review'This book is a significant step forward in understanding the complex relationship between dyslexia, anxiety and coping in higher education. It moves beyond documenting the association to investigating effective and ineffective coping strategies. It does this through careful investigation of the lived experience of students with dyslexia, and use of theoretical frameworks of dyslexia and anxiety.' Julia Carroll, Professor at the Centre for Global Learning, Education and Attainment, Coventry University, UK'This book is a welcome contribution to the literature highlighting the challenges dyslexic students face at university, both academic and emotional. It is empirically based, relying on both quantitative and qualitative evidence, providing a wealth of detail about the nature of the experience and suggestions as to how these difficulties might be mitigated through coaching, counselling and technological interventions.' David McLoughlin, Professor of Professional Practice in Psychology, University of Buckingham, UK'This is a most useful book that explains the nature of dyslexia and provides practical guidance on how to support students with dyslexia in higher education.' Mark Taylor, Senior Lecturer in Information Systems, Liverpool John Moores University, UK'This book fills an important gap in our understanding of dyslexia in adulthood, exploring the emotional consequences of dyslexia in adults from their own perspective. Linking to and extending theories of coping, it translates these voices into practical strategies for managing study which acknowledge not only the cognitive challenges but also the very tangible emotional responses.' Jane Hurry, University College London, UK'Amanda T. Abbot-Jones' book will be extremely useful to anybody wanting to grasp the current state of play regarding dyslexia in higher education, including legislation, institutional provision disparities, available support and the ways in which dyslexic students struggle both cognitively and emotionally.'
