When Sir Winston Churchill discovered painting at the age of forty, he reveled in his newfound pastime. He went on to produce more than 550 paintings, over 130 of them of the French Riviera. His fellow artist and Riviera resident Paul Rafferty has tracked down many of the locations Churchill used in Provence, an area the great man so aptly called “paintatious.” Many of these locations are newly discovered, and Churchill’s “fearless impressions” stand alongside them to illustrate how he captured them on canvas.Rafferty became familiar with Churchill’s paintings in 2008 in Provence and was soon fascinated by them. Winston Churchill: Painting on the French Riviera is Rafferty’s record and exploration of the people and places Churchill captured in his art.

For years London gangster Guy Stanton operated at the top of the drugs trade, moving huge shipments around the world. Yet all along he was living a perilous double life - 'Stanton' was the fake identity of a covert investigator in deep infiltration as part of Britain's most secret undercover unit. Their clandestine exploits have never been revealed - until now. The Betrayer is the authentic account of a ground-breaking assault on the world's most brutal narcos and of the courage, camaraderie (and humour) of the men and women who took the War on Drugs deep into the heart of the enemy.

Many mental health clinicians--even those well acquainted with mindfulness--still view physical, body-oriented techniques as outside their scope of practice. In this accessible book, clinical psychologist, exercise physiologist, and yoga and mindfulness teacher Paul Salmon gives therapists of any orientation the tools to use mindful movement with clients. Salmon shows how simple practices like breathing, walking, and yoga-like stretches can help clients center their attention in the present moment with curiosity and self-acceptance. He summarizes research on the benefits of movement for specific mental and physical health conditions and provides vivid case examples and scripts. Purchasers get access to a companion website where they can download audio recordings of 29 guided practices. 

The handbook offers practical, step-by-step guidance for practitioners and researchers addressing complex problems through various methods. Each method is accompanied by a relevant case study that illustrates its application, interpretation of results, and the development of actionable recommendations. This resource is designed to enhance understanding and facilitate the effective use of these methods in real-world scenarios.
