On 28 November 2004, banker and father-of-two Alistair Wilson was shot three times on his doorstep in a killing more commonly associated with inner city gang wars than a sleepy seaside town in the Scottish Highlands. Almost fifteen years later, the question remains: why? Who would wish to kill this respectable husband and family man in such a brutal fashion? Was it simply a tragic case of mistaken identity, or did someone have reason to end the thirty-year-old's life? And what was the significance of the envelope handed to him before he was fatally wounded? Over the years, leads have been investigated and dismissed, gossip has spread, theories offered and rumours debated at length. And yet, so long after Alistair's death, no arrest has ever been made and precious few leads have been made public.

In all creative writing, the question of what is true and what is real are two very different considerations. Figuring out how to dance between them is a murky business.Most of What Follows Is True is an examination of the complex relationship between fact and fiction, between the "real world" and the stories we tell to explain the world to ourselves. Drawing on his own experience appropriating historical characters to fictional ends, Michael Crummey brings forward important questions about how writers use history and real-life figures to animate fictional stories. Is there a limit to the liberties a writer can take with the real world? Is there a point at which a fictionalization of history becomes a falsification of history? What responsibilities do writers have to their readers, and to the historical and cultural materials they exploit as sources? Crummey

Long before the first Hebrew temple, before the birth of Christ or the mission of Muhammad, there lived in Persia a prophet to whom we owe the ideas of a single god, the cosmic struggle between good and evil, and the Apocalypse. His name was Zarathustra, and his teachings eventually held sway from the Indus to the Nile and spread as far as Britain. Following Zarathustra' s elusive trail back through time and across the Islamic, Christian, and Jewish worlds, Paul Kriwaczek uncovers his legacy at a wedding ceremony in present-day Central Asia, in the Cathar heresy of medieval France, and among the mystery cults of the Roman empire. He explores pre-Muslim Iran and Central Asia, ultimately bringing us face to face with the prophet himself, a teacher whose radical humility shocked and challenged his age, and whose teachings have had an enduring effect on Western thought. The result is a tour de force of travel and historical inquiry by an adventurer in the classic tradition.

Sestry z Misijnej kongregácie služobníc Ducha Svätého sa chcú na stránkach tejto kroniky podeliť o vďačnosť a nádej, ktoré v nich vzbudzujú dejiny ich rehole na Slovensku. Začiatky pôsobenia siahajú do roku 1931. Až do roku 1948 sa kongregácia sľubne rozvíjala a plnila mnohé apoštolské úlohy. Potom nasledovalo štyridsať rokov otvoreného boja proti Cirkvi. Ten boj bol osobitne krutý voči reholiam. Služobnice Ducha Svätého prežili veľkú časť tohto obdobia vo vyhnanstve v českom pohraničí. Osobitnú úlohu v tomto období zohrala Matka Virgília Beláková, ktorej je v kronike venovaný výnimočný priestor.Od roku 1990 misijné sestry slobodne pôsobia na viacerých miestach na Slovensku aj na misiách v zahraničí.S vďačnosťou za 75 rokov pôsobenia a s nádejou do budúcnosti ponúkajú svoju bohato ilustrovanú kroniku čitateľom.

This is a must-have book for anyone who practices, or is interested in, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT).Most people in the psychological community are familiar with the concept of cognitive defusion. This important practice rests on the premise that many of our thoughts, particularly self-evaluative thoughts (I'm not good enough, There's something wrong with me, etc.), do not capture the full reality of a situation. Defusion techniques are used to undermine the authoritative nature of our thoughts, to expose them as simply words, rather than truths etched in stone.Designed for use by mental health professionals and graduate students, Cognitive Defusion In Practice clearly conceptualizes cognitive defusion--an integral aspect of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)--for accessible and practical reference.

This edited collection is one of the first books to focus on the distinctive political marketing and branding strategies utilized by the candidates and their parties in one of the most gripping elections in U.S. history. It considers why this election was so unusual from a political marketing perspective, calling for new explanations and discussions about its implications for mainstream political marketing theory and practice. At a time of political upheaval, candidates from both parties - Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders in particular - have appeared to overturn the conventional wisdom that has hitherto dominated U.S. politics: that candidates should appear 'presidential', be politically experienced and qualified to run for office, and avoid controversial and politically incorrect positions. This book presents scholarly perspectives and research with practitioner-relatable content on
