"Robbie the Raindrop’s First Adventure" is an educational and entertaining look at the water cycle. Leaving his cloud friends in the sky, Robbie falls to the ground as a snowflake, and so begins his journey which he hopes will take him to the sea. Along the way he makes friends with a snowman and has many watery adventures, always hoping that his journey won’t be cut short by evaporation back to the sky.

Post-Object Fandom: Television, Identity and Self-narrative

Fandom is generally viewed as an integral part of everyday life which impacts upon how we form emotional bonds with ourselves and others in a modern, mediated world. Whilst it is inevitable for television series to draw to a close, the reactions of fans have rarely been considered. Williams explores this everyday occurence through close analysis of television fans to examine how they respond to, discuss, and work through their feelings when shows finish airing. Through a range of case studies, including The West Wing (Nbc, 2000-2006), Lost (Abc 2004 -2010), Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997-2003), Doctor Who (Bbc 1963-1989; 2005-), The X-Files (Fox, 1993-2002), Firefly (Fox, 2002) and Sex and the City (Hbo, 1998-2004), Williams considers how fans prepare for the final episodes of shows, how they talk about this experience with fellow fans, and how, through re-viewing, discussion and other fan practices, they seek to maintain their fandom after the show's cessation.

Recent research in the treatment of alcoholism has shown that the involvement of a spouse or partner improves outcome for the client. This hands-on guide presents a time-limited, cognitive-behavioral treatment in the context of couple therapy. The volume demonstrates how to engage the alcoholic's partner as an active participant in the treatment process. Using this state-of-the-art approach, the practitioner can respond to the needs of both the alcoholic and the partner, which may motivate the couple to remain in treatment and learn the skills they need to overcome the many struggles inherent in a relationship affected by alcoholism. Organized so that each chapter and the suggested interventions may stand alone or be integrated with a variety of therapeutic approaches, the book includes numerous illustrative case examples and a wealth of reproducible handouts in the form of exercises, charts, and sample dialogues. Note About Photocopy Rights: The publisher grants book purchasers permission to reproduce handouts and forms in this book for use with their clients.

The discipline of fan studies is famously undisciplined. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t structured. This is the first comprehensive primer for classroom use that shows students how to do fan studies in practical terms. With contributions from a range of established and emerging scholars, coeditors Paul Booth and Rebecca Williams pull together case studies that demonstrate the wide array of methodologies available to fan studies scholars, such as auto/ethnography, immersion, interviews, online data mining, historiography, and textual analysis. This collection also probes the ethical questions that are unique to fan studies work, such as the use of online fan content for research, interview methods, consent, and privacy.
