It covers the first year of marriage of Justin and Djet, as they face the challenge of integrating their very different backgrounds.The characters who have throughout the story been on the periphery, Vincent Kaine and Mike Kells, now, for a brief moment, take centre stage.And it is fitting that Peter Fielding, whose arrival at Shangri-la began the story, has the final word.

But the story is far from complete and to the youngest member of the family, Justin, so much of the past is hidden by a veil of silence.He is haunted by a desire to know more about his Aboriginal heritage.

Traditional therapy practice is facing a crisis due to the increasing influence of Critical Social Justice (aka 'wokeness'). Activists are reframing the narrative of therapy, seizing control of professional bodies and institutions, and teaching future therapists to view their primary role as changing society. Any critique is cancelled: critics are characterised as reactionary and bigoted. A diverse international group of authors comprising psychotherapists, academics, and psychologists are assembled here to present critical perspectives on the antitherapeutic nature of Critical Social Justice. The authors consider questions such as: How did therapy become vulnerable to a political authoritarian ideology?How can theories drawn from psychology and psychotherapy shed light on the phenomenon of 'wokeness'?What are the implications of gender ideology for therapeutic practice? How compatible are Critical Social Justice suppositions with established therapy theories and research?What are the implications of the politicisation of professional bodies and training institutes for counselling and psychotherapy? Finally, some thoughts are offered about how to push back against an ideology which threatens to turn the clinical space into a site for the moral re-education of vulnerable clients. This book represents an ethical call to action: anyone who wishes to preserve the integrity of therapy needs to stand up and make their voices heard.

Life is full of OMG moments. Working for God is fraught with secular and religious challenges that prompt the call. Here, life behind the scenes of a teacher in a religious environment is presented in a tapestry of anecdotes and memories. These pages celebrate a life lived in and beyond the classrooms of the tropical north. They paint pictures of teaching under pressure, and the highs and lows of relationships within Christian school communities. Teachers of today may recognize the angst and relate to the celebrations and sufferings as they too reach out for a helping hand and cry OMG. Christianity and cultural confusions raise perplexing questions about the teacher's role and emerge here in a kaleidoscope of personal experiences - the holy and the unholy.

She has swung uneasily on the pendulum of education policies. She has been energised by the thousands of students whose paths she has touched and the countless colleagues who have buoyed her up in troubled waters. There are wounds and there is whimsy. Her God is everywhere and nowhere.
