    • Description Silent Rituals of the Mind is about Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). In particular it is about the more hidden forms of the condition: mental rituals and tics, rumination, compulsive thought patterns and unwanted thoughts. It is an account by the author of his life with OCD, and the development and impact of the condition from childhood to adult life. The book discusses coping strategies including techniques for reducing anxiety, exposure and de-sensitisation, diet, lifestyle and relaxation. It emphasises the importance of accepting yourself as an OCD sufferer before embarking on the journey towards recovery. The author gives a vivid and at times raw account of severe episodes which have resulted in breakdown and hospitalisation. Silent Rituals of the Mind also takes a light hearted look at some of the 'advantages' of suffering from OCD and discusses portrayals of the condition in the media, drama and situation comedy. The book asks the difficult question: does the highly regulated culture in which we live contribute to incidences of OCD?

    • This unique resource book explores what wellbeing, community participation and independence mean to young people with profound and multiple learning difficulties (PMLD). Bringing together results of an extensive survey of more than 100 schools that teach young people with PMLD, the authors present many innovative ways in which schools are working to ensure young people with PMLD have lives of value that are as rich and meaningful as possible. Organised into three cohesive parts, this book provides a comprehensive insight into established theories and current perspectives on wellbeing and independence for people with PMLD before exploring the results from the Lives Lived Well survey and other international research, and then it helpfully illustrates best practice in action with a close look at an established, very successful specialist school. This book can be used as a guide, resource and inspiration for adults sharing their lives with young people with PMLD – whether practitioners or parents – and concludes by asking what we can learn from these young people to support us all in living life to the full.
