From a Clear Blue Sky: Surviving the Mountbatten Bomb

by Timothy Knatchbull

The prize-winning, &“exceptionally moving&” memoir of a family boat trip, an IRA bombing, and a teenager&’s loss of his twin brother (The Telegraph).Christopher Ewart-Biggs Literary Award Winner and PEN/JR Ackerley Prize Nominee On an August weekend in 1979, fourteen-year-old Timothy Knatchbull joined his family on a boat trip off the shore of Mullaghmore in County Sligo, Ireland. By noon, an Irish Republican Army bomb had destroyed the boat, leaving four dead. The author survived, but his grandparents, family friend, and twin brother did not. Lord Mountbatten, his grandfather, was the target, and became one of the IRA&’s most high-profile assassinations. Knatchbull and his parents were too badly injured to attend the funerals of those killed, which only intensified their profound sense of loss. Telling this story decades later, Knatchbull not only revisits these terrible events but also writes an intensely personal account of human triumph over tragedy—a story of recovery not just from physical wounds but deep emotional trauma.From a Clear Blue Sky takes place in Ireland at the height of the Troubles and gives compelling insight into that period of Irish history. But more importantly, it brings home that while calamity can strike at any moment, the human spirit is able to forgive, to heal, and to move on. &“A minute by minute story of what happened that day, and what happened afterwards.&” —Daily Mail &“This is an extremely moving book. Beyond providing a phenomenally detailed evocation of his own family&’s trauma, Knatchbull has lots of wise things to say about how we survive horrors—of all kinds—in our lives.&” — Zoë Heller, author of the Booker Prize finalist Notes on a Scandal &“A very poignant, clearsighted, heartbreaking but ultimately positive account.&” —Hugh Bonneville, The New York Times

Mediale Dialogkompetenz: Umgang mit schwierigen Gesprächssituationen am Telefon und im Chat

by Birgit Knatz Stefan Schumacher

In vielen Berufsfeldern findet zwischenmenschlicher Dialog nicht mehr „face-to-face“ statt, sondern durch Schreiben und Lesen oder Sprechen und Hören – im Chat, am Telefon, in Messengerdiensten oder über Voicemails. Doch diese Möglichkeiten der zwischenmenschlichen Kommunikation sind auch eine Herausforderung – herausfordernd überhaupt in Kontakt zu kommen, Missverständnisse zu vermeiden, Grenzen zu setzen oder Emotionen zu balancieren. In diesem Fachbuch beschreiben die Autoren anhand zahlreicher Fallbeispiele herausfordernde und schwierige Gesprächssituationen im Chat oder am Telefon. Sie geben praktische Tipps und vermitteln Handlungsstrategien für den Umgang mit Menschen in Krisensituationen oder mit schwierigen Persönlichkeiten sowie zur Verringerung mentaler und emotionaler Belastungen, die durch die Kommunikation mit diesen Menschen entstehen.

Bullying im Klassenverband – doch nicht nur in der Schule: Eine Charakterisierung der Rollen bei Schul- und Cyberbullying

by Rhea-Katharina Knauf

Das vorliegende Open-Access-Buch befasst sich mit den Fragen, welche Rollen Klassenmitglieder bei Bullying einnehmen und durch welche sozial-kognitiven und affektiven Reaktionen sie sich auszeichnen. Bei Bullying handelt es sich um aggressives Verhalten, das sich über einen längeren Zeitraum hinweg systematisch gegen schwächere Mitglieder einer Gruppe richtet. Bullying ist dementsprechend als Gruppenphänomen zu verstehen, das unter anderem häufig in Schulklassen auftritt. Die vorliegende empirische Arbeit berücksichtigt sowohl Bullying im schulischen Kontext als auch Bullying mittels digitaler Medien – also Cyberbullying. Grundannahme ist, dass sich Bullying im Klassenverband heutzutage auch in den Cyberspace erstreckt. Neben Täter- und Opfer-Rolle wird zwischen drei Bystander-Rollen differenziert: Verstärker, Verteidiger und Außenstehende. Der Vergleich zwischen diesen Rollen zeigt, dass sich unter Kontrolle von Geschlecht und Klassenstufe insbesondere Verteidiger- und Täter-Rolle in Hinblick auf Empathie, Moral Disengagement, Verantwortungsgefühl und Selbstwirksamkeitserwartungen unterscheiden, es jedoch wider Erwarten keine Unterschiede zwischen den Bystander-Rollen bezüglich Befürchtungen gibt.

Psychotherapie, Depression und Emanzipation: Eine subjektwissenschaftliche Studie zur verhaltenstherapeutischen Praxis

by Leonie Knebel

Viele Psychotherapeut*innen schreiben ihrer Praxis eine Förderung von Selbstreflexion und selbstbestimmter Lebensführung zu, wohingegen Kritiker*innen eine Individualisierung und Verinnerlichung gesellschaftlicher Zwänge konstatieren. Ebenso umstritten ist, ob die Präsenz von Depressionen Folge einer pervertierten Emanzipation oder von selbstwertschädlichen Abhängigkeiten und Einschränkungen ist. Können und sollen Psychotherapien bei Depression Emanzipation fördern? Und wie lässt sich ein kritischer Anspruch in der Praxis der Verhaltenstherapie umsetzen, die traditionell als Anpassungsinstrument für fremdgesetzte Ziele angesehen wird? Dieses Buch versammelt eine Auswertung der interdisziplinären Literatur zu diesen Fragen und die Ergebnisse einer Interviewstudie mit Psychotherapeut*innen und Betroffenen, die von ihren Begegnungen, ihrer Arbeit sowie Klärungs- und Sorgeprozessen im Spannungsverhältnis von Selbstbestimmung, Einsamkeit, Solidarität und Abhängigkeit berichten. Daraus ergeben sich Anregungen für eine handlungstheoretische Weiterentwicklung der Verhaltenstherapie bei Depression und Anforderungen für eine emanzipatorisch intendierte Psychotherapie.

Advances in Personal Relationships: Positive Approaches to Optimal Relationship Development

by Knee C. Raymond Reis Harry T.

How can we get the most out of our close relationships? Research in the area of personal relationships continues to grow, but most prior work has emphasized how to overcome negative aspects. This volume demonstrates that a good relationship is more than simply the absence of a bad relationship, and that establishing and maintaining optimal relationships entails enacting a set of processes that are distinct from merely avoiding negative or harmful behaviors. Drawing on recent relationship science to explore issues such as intimacy, attachment, passion, sacrifice, and compassionate goals, the essays in this volume emphasize the positive features that allow relationships to flourish. In doing so, they integrate several theoretical perspectives, concepts, and mechanisms that produce optimal relationships. The volume also includes a section on intensive and abbreviated interventions that have been empirically validated to be effective in promoting the positive features of close relationships.

Supporting Young Parents: Pregnancy and Parenthood among Young People from Care

by Abigail Knight Peter Aggleton Ian Warwick Elaine Chase

Supporting Young Parents explores early pregnancy and parenthood from the perspectives of young men and women in and leaving care.

This book draws on authoritative research into the reasons for and experiences of pregnancy and parenthood among young people from local authority care. It questions the assumptions that early parenthood always limits young people's choices and opportunities and examines the types of support most likely to enable successful parenting.

Be a Good in the World

by Brenda Knight

In the hurly burly of this busy world, simple kindness and goodness can get left behind in the rush to be first in line, at the top of the corporate ladder and have the most "likes. " But, what does it all mean at the end of the day? Isn't being a good person and making real contributions to the world more important than anything else? Author Brenda Knight, part of the team who made the world a better place with "Random Acts of Kindness" as well as a little more thankful with The Grateful Table," writes "At the end of life, I feel sure having lots of money, fancy cars and real estate is not nearly as important as how much love you gave to the world. " This realization was the inspiration for Be a Good In the World, a book of "good days" filled with ideas for making a difference.

Trauma Informed Supervision: Core Components and Unique Dynamics in Varied Practice Contexts

by Carolyn Knight Di Borders

Survivors of trauma are disproportionately represented in agencies providing a broad range of behavioral, social, and mental health services. Practitioners in these settings must understand and be able to respond to survivors of trauma in ways that are empowering, normalize and validate their experiences and reactions, and minimize the risk of retraumatization. Practitioners also will be indirectly traumatized as a result of their work with trauma survivors. <p><p> Practitioners’ ability to help clients with histories of trauma depends upon clinical supervision that is trauma-informed. The trauma-informed supervisor has the dual responsibility of enhancing supervisees’ skills as trauma-informed practitioners and helping them manage the impact their work has on them. <p> Nevertheless, many clinical supervisors only have limited knowledge and training in trauma and may not recognize either the needs of those whom they supervise or the clients their supervisees serve. This book compiles important recommendations from trauma-informed practitioners, supervisors, and researchers who share their professional reflections and personal stories based on their hands-on experiences across mental health and medical contexts.

Emotional Literacy in Criminal Justice

by Charlotte Knight

Emotions remain largely invisible in the management of criminal justice practice. This book seeks to uncover some of the underground emotional work of practitioners and make visible the impact of both positive and negative emotions, which play a crucial role in practitioner-offender relationships. Exploring how practitioners understand, regulate and work with emotion, Knight argues that the 'soft skills' of emotion are more likely to achieve motivation and change in offenders than the 'hard' skills of punishment, monitoring and surveillance. The book examines some of the gendered implications of this practice and develops an argument for the explicit building of emotional resources within organizations to sustain the development, enhancement and support of emotional literacy in the workforce. Using practice examples, Knight reveals how practitioners can benefit from having an understanding of their own emotions and how these can impact on their practice. This unique and accessible book will be a valuable resource to practitioners across the criminal justice sector including probation officers, youth justice workers, police and prison officers, social workers, policymakers and managers, as well as scholars working within criminology, criminal justice and probation.

Decoding Chomsky: Science and Revolutionary Politics

by Chris Knight

A fresh and fascinating look at the philosophies, politics, and intellectual legacy of one of the twentieth century's most influential and controversial minds Occupying a pivotal position in postwar thought, Noam Chomsky is both the founder of modern linguistics and the world's most prominent political dissident. Chris Knight adopts an anthropologist's perspective on the twin output of this intellectual giant, acclaimed as much for his denunciations of US foreign policy as for his theories about language and mind. Knight explores the social and institutional context of Chomsky's thinking, showing how the tension between military funding and his role as linchpin of the political left pressured him to establish a disconnect between science on the one hand and politics on the other, deepening a split between mind and body characteristic of Western philosophy since the Enlightenment. Provocative, fearless, and engaging, this remarkable study explains the enigma of one of the greatest intellectuals of our time.

Contradictory Lives: Baul Women in India and Bangladesh

by Lisa I. Knight

In literature and popular imagination, the Bauls of India and Bangladesh are characterized as musical mystics: orange-clad nomads of both Hindu and Muslim backgrounds. They wander the countryside and entertain with their passionate singing and unusual behavior, and they are especiallywell-known for their evocative songs, which challenge the caste system and sectarianism prevalent in South Asia. Although Bauls claim to value women over men, little is known about the individual views and experiences of Baul women. Based on ethnographic research in both the predominantly Hindu context of West Bengal (India) and the Muslim country of Bangladesh, this book explores the everyday lives of Baulwomen. Lisa Knight examines the contradictory expectations regarding Baul women: on the one hand, the ideal of a group unencumbered by societal restraints and concerns and, on the other, the real constraints of feminine respectability that seemingly curtail women's mobility and public performances. Knight demonstrates that Baul women respond to these conflicting expectations in various ways, sometimes adopting and other times subverting local gendered norms to craft meaningful lives. More so than their male counterparts, Baul women feel encumbered by norms. But rather than seeing Baul women'snormative behavior as indicative of their conformity to gendered roles (and, therefore, failures as Bauls), Knight argues that these women creatively draw on societal expectations to transcend their social limits and create new paths.
