Taylor & Francis Ltd Nurturing Children's Resilience Following Adverse Childhood Experiences: An Adult Guide
• The therapeutic story comes with a guide which is vital if the issues are to be discussed sensitively without re-traumatising the child/ren. • The story can be read with individual children who have been exposed to ACEs, in small groups, or whole classes, and it can help to enable dialogue around the sensitive issues presented. • Many of the books written for children about ACEs and trauma are focused on animal characters which can make it difficult to relate to for a child – this book includes human characters to make it all the more relatable. • The concept of the “keepers” is unique to this book and is a helpful, age-appropriate way to help children to not only recall the ACEs in their lives – but critically, to remember these as hopeful times too. • Each time the main character encounters an ACE and is supported, she develops an ever-growing glow. By the end of the story she emanates a glow from within and this represents her inner resilience. • The book is based on the author’s own ACEs and has authenticity – like the main character, she was supported by people in her life and now provides a positive role model for children who have been exposed to ACEs globally.

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Befähigung durch Stärkung der Handlungskompetenz: Eine interdisziplinäre Erkundung
Dieses Buch konzentriert sich auf das Verständnis von Faktoren und Mechanismen, die an der Entwicklung von Handlungskompetenz beteiligt sind, hauptsächlich in drei verwandten Kontexten: partizipative Entwicklung, Beratungsarbeit und Dienstleistungstransaktionen. Ausgangspunkt der Forschung ist die Erkenntnis, dass "agency" (allgemein verstanden als Wille und Praxis der Selbstbestimmung und des Selbstmanagements) bei den Nutznießern von Dienstleistungen und Projekten eine entscheidende Rolle für die effektive Umsetzung und Nachhaltigkeit spielt. Das Projekt befasst sich mit diesem Thema, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf den inneren Fähigkeiten und Orientierungen der Menschen liegt, und wirft die Frage auf, wie solche Fähigkeiten und Orientierungen in der Praxis von externen Akteuren im Bereich der öffentlichen Politik für sozioökonomische und internationale Entwicklung gefördert und aktiviert werden könnten. Das Projekt ist so angelegt, dass es die traditionellen disziplinären Grenzen überschreitet und anthropologische, psychologische und wirtschaftliche Ansätze und Perspektiven miteinander verbindet.

Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Nascent Entrepreneurship and Learning
This informative book examines the process of nascent entrepreneurship from a learning perspective. It offers a multi-layered framework of nascent entrepreneurship through an inter-disciplinary approach and sound application of Bourdieu’s conceptual tools and also by generating practical insights for nascent entrepreneurs, enterprise educators and mentors.Supported by an empirical investigation of two case studies, the authors argue that it is not sufficient to study nascent entrepreneurship and concurrent process of entrepreneurial learning at just the individual (entrepreneur) or collective (team or organisational) level and examine the socio-behavioural aspects of learning; but that entrepreneurial learning should be understood by inter-relating personal (micro), relational (meso) and macro-contextual aspects of nascent entrepreneurship. The comprehensive coverage of entrepreneurship theory and research will be of significant value for scholars, researchers and students in the field.
