Jo Carson lays bare her personal investigation into her own creative process after a spider bite on her back begins a series of life-altering events. Spider Speculations applies cutting edge mind-body science, quantum physics and ancient shamanistic techniques to describe how stories work in our bodies and our lives, and what happens when real stories are used in a public way. Carson, whose ability to capture the spoken word hallmarks her community-based work, sets down this story in her own distinctive voice, interspersing the journey with examples of her performance work. This truly original American book will speak to anyone thinking about art and community or engaging with people's stories.

DIFFERENT . . . YET EXTRAORDINARY. What if the one person you loved more than anyone in the world wasn’t who you thought he was? What if he was someone different? Different yet extraordinary. Kate Kirby has been best friends with Ben for as long as she could remember. He was her beloved companion through childhood, and he was her rock and her strength during adulthood. When she faced tragedy, he comforted her. When she lost her way, he guided her home. Even when she pushed him away, he was never far. Through the ups and downs Kate always knew she could count on him. But what she didn’t know was that there was much more to Ben than what met the eye. Although ordinary by outward appearances and worldly standards, inwardly there was something indescribable about Ben. Something otherworldly. Would Kate ever realize the truth about her best friend? The truth that was staring her right between the eyes, yet she was blind to see. Journey with Kate as she experiences life and faith with a guardian quite literally by her side, and in the process embark upon your own journey of faith that will simultaneously comfort and challenge you.

Faster, Fitter, Happier is the first book to bridge the gap between the practice of psychology across both professional and amateur sport, and the theoretical foundations on which the science is based. Author Tony Westbury has been working alongside coaches and performers across a range of sports for over 25 years, during which time he has been asked everything from the best methods to combat nerves to developing that elusive ‘will to win’. Here he provides the answers to 75 questions that encapsulate some of the most important issues he’s faced. From motivating yourself to stick to a training programme to taking a high-pressure penalty or getting back in the saddle after a fall, the book offers guidance and advice across a range of sports for both professional and amateur alike. Its accessible style is ideally suited to performers, coaches, teachers and parents, while each question also includes a summary of the theory - an invaluable resource for students and early career practitioners. With a foreword by British Lion and Scottish International Jason White, this is a unique overview of how sport psychology can support us in our everyday sporting endeavours. Engaging, insightful and practical, it will be essential reading whether you’re training for the Olympics or just losing confidence after yet another missed putt.

Kaye Dobbie returns with a captivating new family saga. An interrupted phone call and a mysterious disappearance bring a family's secret past crashing into the present... 1969: Small–town girl Faith Taylor leaves her family home in Willow Tree Bend and lands a job at the Angel–Melbourne's most infamous nightclub. While Faith relishes her new–found freedom, she can't help noticing that some things about the club don't add up. So when a policeman reveals that a former waitress was murdered, Faith realises she must help to bring down the shadowy owner behind the club's activities. More than thirty years later, what happened at the Angel remains a closely held secret. When Faith disappears, her sister Hope–now a famous movie star–is left with an intriguing, though frustrating, piece of the puzzle. But with a tell–all documentary film crew constantly by her side, how can she find where Faith is–and what she's hiding–while making sure her own secrets stay hidden? Faith's daughter, Sam, is also concerned by her mother's uncharacteristic behaviour. When she overhears a clue to Faith's past, she's determined to unearth the truth. What is the connection between the Angel and Willow Tree Bend? What does Faith's disappearance mean? And what will happen when the final secret is revealed?
