Communication Interventions with Deaf People
Communication Interventions with Deaf People concerns the application of spoken, signed, and written language interventions with deaf and hard of hearing children, young people, and adults. Exploring the work that speech and language therapists, pathologists, deaf language specialists, and other professionals carry out with deaf people, this volume extends beyond the classroom and provides clinical and real-life applications of learning and communication. Historically, communication interventions with deaf people have prioritised spoken language and considered it to be the most ''appropriate'' and ''normal'' accomplishment. However, this book begins with a deaf perspective on communication interventions where the multiple languages, signed, spoken, and written, of deaf people are valued equally, and this paradigm shift is reflected throughout the various chapters.With over forty contributors, the research and professional experience of experts working with deaf people, across national borders, is presented. Individual chapters describe the ways that services are delivered and detail different aspects of communication interventions, presenting the current evidence base and indicating areas where further research is needed.

Bees - Tom Jackson
With full captions explaining how bees live, function communally, communicate, feed, and reproduce, Bees is an insightful examination in outstanding color photographs of mankind’s favorite insect. Honeybees, bumblebees, mining bees, dwarf bees, carpenter, leafcutter, and mason bees: bees come in many different types, with more than 16,000 species worldwide. The bees we are most familiar with, bumblebees and honeybees, live in colonies and play a major role in pollinating the crops, plants, and flowers around us. And bees produce honey—reputedly the food of the gods—a function of bees’ lifecycle, which humans have exploited for millennia. Many bees today are domesticated, and beekeepers collect honey, beeswax, pollen, and royal jelly from hives for human use. A typical bee produces a teaspoon of honey in her lifetime. Bees can communicate in many ways through the movement of their wings and bodies—most famously, with the “waggle dance,” where they make figure-of-eight circles to let other bees know the direction and distance of nectar. Bees is an exciting collection of photographs showing these fascinating insects in their natural habitat.

The Murmur of Bees - Sofía Segovia
From a beguiling voice in Mexican fiction comes an astonishing novel—her first to be translated into English—about a mysterious child with the power to change a family’s history in a country on the verge of revolution. From the day that old Nana Reja found a baby abandoned under a bridge, the life of a small Mexican town forever changed. Disfigured and covered in a blanket of bees, little Simonopio is for some locals the stuff of superstition, a child kissed by the devil. But he is welcomed by landowners Francisco and Beatriz Morales, who adopt him and care for him as if he were their own. As he grows up, Simonopio becomes a cause for wonder to the Morales family, because when the uncannily gifted child closes his eyes, he can see what no one else can—visions of all that’s yet to come, both beautiful and dangerous. Followed by his protective swarm of bees and living to deliver his adoptive family from threats—both human and those of nature—Simonopio’s purpose in Linares will, in time, be divined.

How to Defeat the Far Right - Nick Lowles
‘A brilliant and challenging book’ GORDON BROWNFrom the founder of Britain’s leading antifascist organisation, HOPE not hate, this is an urgent call to resist the forces of extremism on the march in Western societies – and how to go about it.If you’re shocked and disconcerted by the rise of intolerance and hate, you’re not alone.Drawing from 35 years of campaigning and journalism, Nick Lowles shows how anti-immigration, antisemitic and Islamophobic attacks have proliferated in the modern world, and how Britain – with the likes of Tommy Robinson and the threat of Reform UK – has been far from immune from far-right politics.From HOPE not hate’s pioneering campaigns against the BNP in east London to the impact of the ‘manosphere’ and the issues in Netflix''s Adolescence; from explorations of the pernicious influence of ‘race science’ and conspiracy theory to the interplay of deprivation and intolerance in Britain’s deindustrialised towns, Lowles entwines his inspirational story with hard-won lessons from decades of activism.His conclusions – which do not shy away from awkward truths for campaigners – suggest practical ways for the far right to be defeated. And he shares powerful examples – from a participant-led youth club in Hull to Syrian refugees connecting ... Unknown localization key: "more"
