Protect and Provide

Customer-Centric (and Compliant) Insurance Sales

By: Dean Mannix

This book is NOT for self-centred people, managers and companies focused on selling more insurance products. You are villains. This is for the heroes in the insurance industry. Those truly committed to protecting their customers. Those investing in their relationships and taking responsibility for ensuring customers and loved ones will be provided for. Those more committed to educating and understanding than they are to selling and commission. Those that chase financial success through the good they do for others. This is the customer centric way. It's not the easy or the quick way. But for those committed to the Protect and Provide Pledge, it is the best way. And 20 years of consulting in over 25 countries has proven its the most profitable way. Protect and Provide will challenge every aspect of the way you sell insurance. You'll learn everything you need to know (and ask), to transform selling insurance products into helping people buy the right cover. You'll throw away the "pitch" and commit to insurance conversations that motivate the right decisions. You'll learn how to ethically influence people without advice and without the need for hard closes and objection handling. This is your guide to personal and financial success in the insurance industry. Insurance hero or villain?

Remembering Vancouver's Disappeared Women

Remembering Vancouver's Disappeared Women

Settler Colonialism and the Difficulty of Inheritance

By: Amber Dean

Between the late 1970s and the early 2000s, at least sixty-five women, many of them members of Indigenous communities, were found murdered or reported missing from Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. In a work driven by the urgency of this ongoing crisis, which extends across the country, Amber Dean offers a timely, critical analysis of the public representations, memorials, and activist strategies that brought the story of Vancouver’s disappeared women to the attention of a wider public. Remembering Vancouver’s Disappeared Women traces “what lives on” from the violent loss of so many women from the same neighbourhood. Dean interrogates representations that aim to humanize the murdered or missing women, asking how these might inadvertently feed into the presumed dehumanization of sex work, Indigeneity, and living in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver. Taking inspiration from Indigenous women’s research, activism, and art, she challenges readers to reckon with our collective implication in the ongoing violence of settler colonialism and to accept responsibility for addressing its countless injustices.

Nursing and Midwifery Research

Methods and Critical Appraisal for Evidence-Based Practice

By: Dean Whitehead,Geri LoBiondo-Wood,Judith Haber

The new edition upholds the premise that knowledge about research process and design is mandatory in today's health care arena, and that all nurses and midwives need to understand research findings and their implication for changing practice. It is completely revised with many new chapters. The text has been restructured into three sections. Section 1 Research Awareness sets the scene for the importance of nursing and midwifery research and provides an overview of research theory and practice as processes. Chapters on searching for and reviewing the literature provide detailed advice for undergraduates and facilitate access to research articles online. One of the new chapters discusses ethical issues in Australia and New Zealand. Section 2 Appreciation and Application provides a detailed discussion of qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods research approaches with many useful examples from the clinical area. Section 3 Conducting primary research is new and is designed to accommodate both undergraduate and postgraduate students in their research effort. Writing research proposals may be a requirement for undergraduates in their research program and postgraduates will find the information useful for undertaking a higher degree or applying for university or external funding. This final Section is also useful as a guide on disseminating and publishing conducted research findings. - Combined Australian and New Zealand editorship ensures greater trans-Tasman coverage, awareness and relevance. - Contributions from international luminaries are balanced by a heightened focus on research conducted within Australia and New Zealand. - New edition conscientiously recognises midwifery research as related to but independent from nursing. - The research process-driven approach is directed towards 'consumers' of research, and the comprehensive coverage extends from undergraduate through to a postgraduate level of knowledge. - Expanded pedagogy includes Key Terms and Learning Outcomes at the beginning of each chapter; Icons throughout that direct readers to web-based material; Evidence-based Tips, Research in Brief boxes and Points to Ponder for constant reinforcement that links evidence to practice. - Integrated Tutorial Triggers with suggested answers provided and Multiple Choice Questions enable students to assess their understanding of key points. - Evolve Website provides True/False questions and access to journal articles cited in the text, with additional reflective questions. - Chapter 1: The significance of nursing research identifies the current changes in practice and future directions in Australian health care - Previous chapters 3 and 4 have been combined to become Chapter 3: Searching and reviewing the literature - A detailed discussion of qualitative, quantitative and mixed-methods research approaches - Increased Australian and New Zealand context and research examples - More accessible language throughout

Pre-crime

Pre-crime

Pre-emption, precaution and the future

By: Jude McCulloch,Dean Wilson

Pre-crime aims to pre-empt ‘would-be-criminals’ and predict future crime. Although the term is borrowed from science fiction, the drive to predict and pre-empt crime is a present-day reality. This book critically explores this major twenty-first century development in crime and justice. This first in-depth study of pre-crime defines and describes different types of pre-crime and compares it to traditional post-crime and crime risk approaches. It analyses the rationales that underpin pre-crime as a response to threats, particularly terrorism, and shows how it is spreading to other areas. It also underlines the historical continuities that prefigure the emergence of pre-crime, as well as exploring the new technologies and forms of surveillance that claim the ability to predict crime and identify future criminals. Through the use of examples and case studies it provides insights into how pre-crime generates the crimes it purports to counter, providing compelling evidence of the problems that arise when we act as if we know the future and aim to control it through punishing, disrupting or incapacitating those we predict might commit future crimes. Drawing on literature from criminology, law, international relations, security and globalization studies, this book sets out a coherent framework for the continued study of pre-crime and addresses key issues such as terminology, its links to past practises, its likely future trajectories and its impact on security, crime and justice. It is essential reading for academics and students in security studies, criminology, counter-terrorism, surveillance, policing and law, as well as practitioners and professionals in these fields.

Schools for All Kinds of Minds

Boosting Student Success by Embracing Learning Variation

By: Mary-Dean Barringer,Craig Pohlman,Michele Robinson

This book shows how schools can--and must--develop expertise in "learning variation" (understanding how different kinds of minds learn) and apply this knowledge to classroom instruction in order to address the chronic learning challenges and achievement gap faced by millions of students. Barringer shows how using what we know about learning variation with a focus on discovering learning strengths, not just deficits, can help schools create plans for success for those students who often find it elusive. The book specifically addresses how school leaders can incorporate this knowledge into instructional practice and school-level policy through various professional development strategies. Schools for All Kinds of Minds: Provides a readable synthesis of the latest research from neuroscience, cognitive science, and child and adolescent development as it relates to understanding learning and its many variations. Links this information to strategies for understanding struggling learners and adapting school practices to accommodate a wider array of learning differences in a classroom. Demonstrates how this understanding of learning variation can change the way teachers and others help students succeed in various academic and content areas and acquire necessary 21st century skills. Includes discussion questions and facilitator guidelines for staff developers and teacher education programs; downloadable forms that accompany exercises from within the book; an action plan for schools to implement the ideas found in the book; and more.

Mabel Normand

The Life and Career of a Hollywood Madcap, 2d ed.

By: Timothy Dean Lefler

American silent film actress Mabel Normand (1892-1930) appeared in a string of popular movies opposite stars like Charlie Chaplin and Fatty Arbuckle before dying of tuberculosis at 37. Her brief but remarkable career--which included directorial and writing credits and heading her own studio and production company--was eclipsed by scandal when police connected her to the unsolved 1922 murder of director William Desmond Taylor.Tracing her life from humble beginnings on Staten Island to the heights of world superstardom, this book highlights Normand's substantial yet largely overlooked contributions to film history and popular culture.

The Handbook of Art Therapy

By: Caroline Case,Tessa Dalley,Dean Reddick

The Handbook of Art Therapy has become the standard introductory text into the theory and practice of art therapy in a variety of settings. The comprehensive book concentrates on the work of art therapists and the way that art and therapy can combine in a treatment setting to promote insight and change. In this fourth edition, readers will gain both a historical overview of art therapy and insight into contemporary settings in which art therapists work, with a new chapter on the use of new technology and working online. The authors are highly experienced in the teaching, supervision and clinical practice of art therapy. Using first-hand accounts from therapists and patients, they look particularly at the role of the art work in the art process and setting in which it takes place. Chapters explore the theoretical background from which art therapy has developed and the implications for practice including the influence of art and psychoanalysis, creativity, aesthetics and symbolism, and the impact of different schools of psychoanalytic theory. Also featured is an extensive bibliography, encompassing a comprehensive coverage of the current literature on art therapy and related subjects. Covering basic theory and practice for clinicians and students at all levels of training, this book remains a key text for art therapists, counsellors, psychotherapists, psychologists and students at all levels, as well as professionals working in other arts therapies.
