Atom enthüllt die schmutzigen Geheimnisse der Atomindustrie und die unlösbare Verbindung zwischen "friedlicher" und militärischer Nutzung der Kernenergie. Stephanie Cooke präsentiert eine umfassende und spannend erzählte Geschichte des Nuklearzeitalters – von der Entwicklung der Hiroshima-Bombe im Manhattan-Projekt bis hin zu den Katastrophen von Tschernobyl und Fukushima. Sie beleuchtet den naiven Fortschrittsglauben an eine vermeintlich saubere, billige und unerschöpfliche Energiequelle und entlarvt die Propaganda für "sauberen" Atomstrom als Streben nach waffenfähigem Spaltmaterial. Atom zeigt, dass keines der Probleme dieser Technologie gelöst ist: Die Endlagerfrage für hochradioaktiven Atommüll bleibt unbeantwortet, die Sicherheit von Atomkraftwerken ist nicht gewährleistet und Zehntausende von Atomsprengköpfen bedrohen noch immer die Menschheit. Angesichts wachsender Sorgen vor einer weiteren Verbreitung von Atomwaffen und den Rufen nach einer "nuklearen Renaissance" im Kampf gegen den Klimawandel ist dieses Buch ein eindringlicher Appell, die Fehler der Vergangenheit nicht zu wiederholen und uns endgültig von der Atomtechnologie zu verabschieden.

In this mind-expanding book, Newbery Honor and Christopher Award-winning author Stephanie S. Tolan, who has been telling stories in the form of plays, novels, non-fiction books and articles for children and adults all her life, shares what she has learned about the power of story not just to express our experiences, but to create them. What Tolan calls Story Principle, explored in these pages, challenges the common view that reality is fixed and immutable, that we have little or no control over it, and that we live our lives within it as best we can. Story Principle suggests the radical idea that we live the stories we tell. Therefore, reality-a collection of stories-is infinitely changeable, one story and one story-teller at a time. Included here are not just ways to recognize stories and the ways they play out in your experience, but specific techniques for replacing them if you wish. This challenging book is an invitation to change your life by changing the stories you live.

Beyond Trauma Curriculum with Video

Eleven-year-old Kerry Warren comes to a new understanding of her aged grandfather and of her own place in her family.

Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) has become an epidemic in the college-age population with young adults between the ages of 18 and 25 be ing the highest risk group for the behavior. Many college counseling center directors report that treatment with individuals who engage in NSSI is often not successful. A major hindrance in the treatment of NSSI is a lack of motivation in the individual to give up the behavior and, within the college setting, there is the further complication of the short-term model of therapy employed by many college counseling centers nationwide. A form of treatment is needed that could help build an individuals motivation to change self-injuring behavior within a time-limited framework. Motivational interviewing (MI) is one such treatment that shows potential as an appropriate addition to current treatment to enhance efficacy or build basic motivation for change. This critical review of the literature synthesizes, critiques, and analyzes the research literature related to training clinicians generally and training clinicians in MI in order to determine how college counselors can best be trained in MI to address the problem of NSSI.
