the empirical evidence base that is validating and recommending them.

It is intended as a practical guide to the landscape of teaching, to help those with a new or growing interest in mindfulness-based interventions to develop both the personal authenticity and the practical know-how that can make teaching mindfulness a highly rewarding and effective way of working with others.

In this passionate book Maggie MacKellar tells the stories of women on the frontier in Canada and Australia who ventured out in bonnets and petticoats to collect seeds, who abandoned sidesaddles to ride in the mountains, who risked their reputations to climb mountains - and beyond this it tells of the risky business of women who put their lives on the page to claim the importance of their experience.

took on the challenge of moving enormous numbers of cattle many thousands of kilometres across the country. They overcame extraordinary natural hazards and the tyranny of distance that stood between the far-flung stations and the markets. This evocative collection of outback folklore, poetry and true accounts paints a colourful picture of a variety of characters who thrived in an environment where guts and self-reliance were essential for survival.

the stories he tells, combining a love for animals with a love for fellow humans, and a thirst for knowledge. Many of the stories are about animals Gaita himself has known and loved: Jack the cockatoo, Gypsy the dog and Tosca the cat. These stories are interwoven with reflections on how animals think, hope, trust and feel. What does Gypsy think about when she sits on her mat gazing out to sea? Is it mistaken to attribute the concepts of love, devotion, loyalty, grief, bravery or friendship to animals? Why do we care so much for some creatures and so little for others?A kind of believing

Courage
Par Maria M Tumarkin. 2007
"People care desperately about courage. For once, I am one of the people. Do you want to know what it…
means to care desperately? It means that I am prepared to give up dignity, talent and generosity for the attribute of courage. When I fantasise about what people will say after my death, I know what I want them to recall - whatever her flaws (too numerous to mention), she certainly had guts. Yet the courage I conjure up in my fantasies exists outside of the extremes of violence, endurance and fear. It is not primarily a virtuous ideal or an idea, but rather an expression of the human spirit-messy, explosive and morally ambivalent." Maria Tumarkin's view of courage contains no dead military heroes. Young, female, an immigrant from the crumbling Soviet states, she mines her own remarkable life story to produce a meditation on the courage we need to live our everyday lives, a hybrid of memoir and philosophy, of experience and ideas.
