Johnston, Roseby, and Kuehnle take you behind the child's eyes, into their heads...[they] flesh out the familial context, and bring it all back into the larger social world....When you are done reading, you know who these families are, what the children need, and -- as a clinician -- how you can help them." --Marsha Kline Pruett, PhD, MSL Maconda Brown O'Connor Professor Smith College School for Social Work "This book addresses problems that arise for children of conflicted and violent divorceÖ.It provides a good base for beginning to treat children in this situation as well as good information for understanding the legal and community services available." --Doody's The fully updated and revised edition of In the Name of the Child examines both the immediate and long-term effects of high-conflict divorce on children. By combining three decades of research with clinical experience, the authors trace the developmental problems affecting very young children through adolescence and adulthood, paying special attention to the impact of family violence and the dynamics of parental alienation.

USA Today bestselling author Vivienne Lorret continues her charming new trilogy with a bluestocking whose search for information on the mating habits of scoundrels has her stumbling upon the missing heir to an earldom... in the London underworld. Jane Pickerington never intended to start a brawl in a brothel. She only wanted to research her book. Yet when her simple study of scoundrels goes awry, she finds herself coming to the rescue of a dark, enigmatic stranger… who turns out to be far more than an average rake out for a night of pleasure. He’s positively wild! Only the most feral and cunning could have survived foundling homes and work houses. Orphaned as an infant, Raven never had another name. At least… not until he meets her. Now he’s face-to-face with the one person who recognizes the strange birthmark on his arm and can reinstate him to his blue-blooded birthright. All at once, Raven’s life takes a turn. His knowledge of dark alleys and gaming hells never prepared him for gilded ballrooms. So Jane becomes his tutor. Yet, the more lessons in decorum she offers, the more this untamed scoundrel wants to teach her all the ways to be wicked.

Vivienne Westwood è una delle icone della nostra era. Stilista di moda, attivista, co-creatrice del punk, brand globale. Mamma, più volte moglie e compagna, nonna. Una vera leggenda vivente. La sua carriera ha attraversato con successo cinque lunghi decenni, e il suo lavoro influenzato milioni di persone in tutto il mondo. Per la prima e unica volta, Vivienne Westwood ha scritto un libro di memorie personali, collaborando con il pluripremiato biografo Ian Kelly per descrivere gli eventi, le persone e le idee che hanno dato forma e sostanza alla sua vita straordinaria. Raccontata in tutto il suo fascino glamour e con appassionata onestà, questa è la Sua Storia. Dalla felice infanzia nel Derbyshire al trasferimento nella Londra degli anni Cinquanta. Dai primi originalissimi gioielli venduti sulle bancarelle di Portobello Road al vestito realizzato da sola per il primo matrimonio con Derek Westwood e la nascita del figlio Benjamin. Dalla separazione consensuale alla turbolenta relazione con Malcolm McLaren, futuro manager dei Sex Pistols, da cui nasce il secondo figlio Joseph Corré. Per arrivare all’apertura del primo negozio su King’s Road, “Let it Rock”, destinato a cambiare diversi nomi e stili fino all’attuale “Worlds End”. Dall’approdo al “made in Italy” grazie alla collaborazione con Carlo D’Amario alla relazione platonica e culturale con lo storico dell’arte Gary Ness. Fino al secondo matrimonio “clandestino” con Andreas Kronthaler, suo giovanissimo e geniale studente di moda austriaco, nel 1992. Se negli anni Settanta la Westwood viene riconosciuta come l’ideatrice del look punk, con creazioni stravaganti e provocatorie, negli anni Ottanta i suoi modelli non traggono più ispirazione soltanto dalla moda di strada giovanile, ma da tradizione e tecnica. La sua ricerca prende coltissimi spunti dalla storia del costume ed esplora tutte le epoche. Nel nuovo millennio s’impone poi l’impegno sociale e politico come attivista per organizzazioni ambientaliste e per i diritti umani e civili e il personale contributo grazie alla campagna “Rivoluzione Climatica” e al manifesto Active Resistance to Propaganda.
