Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression with full number line. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, not price clipped (£20.00), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy. 400pp, illustrated. His elder brot…her Peter may have been more aptly named for the part, but it was Michael, the fourth son of Sylvia and Arthur Llewellyn Davies, who was the original 'little half and half, the half human, half supernatural Peter Pan, who hopes never to be compelled to grow up and face life's harsh realities. The playwright struck up a friendship with Michael's three older brothers after he encountered them playing in London's Kensington Gardens, an area that would become the first location for the Neverland of his most enduring work. But soon it was Michael who was 'The One'. Touched by his grandfather George du Maurier's 'sixth sense', Michael lived the fantasy life more intensely than any of them, even participating in a hauntingly accurate prediction of events to come as Peter Pan daring himself to drown in the mermaids' lagoon, fascinated by the prospect of an afterlife. Nightmares and an unnatural terror of water ensued, but no one intervened or thought to stop the obvious root to his subconscious fears. Indeed, when Michael's parents, themselves the inspiration for Mr and Mrs Darling in the play, died one after the other, leaving the brothers orphans and real 'Lost Boys', Barrie's involvement was so entrenched that the enigmatic, and by now very rich, playwright offered himself up as guardian. As the years went by, Michael and Barrie became ever closer, their Neverland transferring to the Highlands and islands of Scotland, where, still driven by the need to write from life, Barrie's otherworldly preoccupations steered their fantasy life afresh. Until one day it seemed to Michael time to break free. A true story of friendship, love and childhood innocence, shot through with joy, but terminated by tragedy 'The Real Peter Pan' is the moving story of a boy who would never grow up.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "The Decision of Belonging in Immigrant Populations" offers a profound examination of the migrant experience, framing belonging not as a static destination but as an ongoing negotiation between memory and aspiration. This manuscript navigates the subtle erosion of identity that often precede…s migration, exploring how individuals reorient themselves within unfamiliar social and institutional landscapes. Through a blend of psychological analysis, structural critique, and personal narrative, the text illuminates the tension between loyalty to one's roots and the desire for acceptance in a new culture. It delves into the barriers faced in countries of origin, ranging from economic instability to hostile governance, while contrasting these with the opportunities and support systems available in welcoming host societies.Central to this work is the concept of dual belonging, investigating the psychological impact of living between two worlds and the emergence of hybrid identities that draw strength from multiplicity. The book highlights the critical role of community, education, and self-worth in facilitating integration, showcasing success stories that underscore the transformative power of resilience. It examines how immigrant communities can both support and hinder progress, while emphasizing the importance of bridging cultural gaps through reciprocal exchange. Beyond the individual journey, the text argues that belonging is a shared responsibility requiring structural inclusion and participatory integration. It calls for a shift from mere coexistence to co-creation, where both immigrants and host societies engage in a moral architecture of recognition, reciprocity, and justice. Ultimately, this work envisions a future where civic identity is stewarded across generations, fostering a society where diversity enriches the collective narrative rather than dividing it.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Mastering Body Language Under Observation" moves beyond superficial gesture cataloging to explore the neurobiological reality of human behavior under scrutiny. Written by Dr. Mostafa A. Ebrahim, this comprehensive field guide operates on a foundational premise: the moment an individual beco…mes aware of being observed, their nervous system recalibrates. This text does not treat body language as a static code, but as a dynamic negotiation between biology, context, and strategic presentation.Designed for professionals operating in high-stakes environments, from executive leadership and negotiations to investigative interviewing and security screening, this book offers a dual-purpose framework. It serves simultaneously as a Regulation Manual for stabilizing one's own physiological coherence under pressure and a Detection Manual for disciplined behavioral analysis in others. Readers are guided through the science of nonverbal signals, including kinesics, proxemics, and paralinguistics, grounded in the mechanics of the autonomic nervous system and limbic appraisal.The methodology centers on the Baseline Deviation Model, emphasizing that accurate interpretation requires establishing individual norms before identifying stress-induced deviations. The content is structured to build competence progressively, covering specific channels such as facial microexpressions, manual gestures, torso posture, and vocal prosody. Crucially, the text integrates ethical considerations, reminding practitioners that behavioral cues are probabilistic indicators of arousal, not deterministic proof of deception.Featuring practical scenarios, scripts, and a structured training plan for long-term skill building, this book equips readers to navigate the complexities of observation with humility and precision. It transforms behavioral analysis from intuitive guesswork into a disciplined professional capability, ensuring that composure and analytical accuracy remain stable even when the stakes are highest.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Serving as the third volume in the "Political Reviews" series, the "Middle East at the Crossroads: Contested Hegemony - American Structural Power and Chinese Relational Influence" provides a rigorous examination of the systemic transition currently reshaping regional geopolitics. As the era…of undisputed unipolarity wanes, the Middle East has emerged as a primary theater of competition between established American structural power and nascent Chinese relational influence.This volume introduces a sophisticated analytical framework to decode the "security-economy nexus" that now governs regional foreign policy. It posits that while the United States maintains its role as the primary security guarantor through its control of global financial and military architectures (structural power), China has effectively embedded itself into the regional landscape through dense, multi-layered networks of trade, infrastructure, and technology (relational influence).Through a series of detailed case studies, including the strategic entrepreneurship of the Gulf monarchies, Egypt's infrastructure-led economic pivot, and the sub-hegemonic aspirations of Iran and Tuerkiye, the book explores how regional actors navigate this increasingly bifurcated order. Rather than adhering to binary alliances, Middle Eastern states are adopting sophisticated strategies of "strategic autonomy" and "multi-alignment," seeking to decouple their economic development from traditional security dependencies.The Middle East at the Crossroads offers a timely synthesis of International Relations theory and empirical regional analysis. It is an essential resource for scholars, policymakers, and defense analysts seeking to understand the complexities of the 21st-century "multiplex order", a landscape where power is increasingly fragmented and contested across diverse domains of influence.BiteBack Press This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "The Body Language Manual: Decoding Behavioral Cues and Hidden Intent Across Cultures and Ethnic Groups" addresses the most persistent challenge in nonverbal analysis: accurate interpretation across cultural, contextual, and individual differences. Moving decisively beyond universalist myths… and pop-psychology shortcuts, this volume establishes a neurobiologically grounded framework for distinguishing meaningful behavioral deviations from culturally normative expression.Volume 5 introduces the dual-baseline methodology, calibrating both individual habitual patterns and culturally specific display rules before drawing inferences. Through meticulously researched comparative tables, practitioners learn to differentiate Southeast Asian restraint (reflecting hierarchy sensitivity) from deception, Latin American vocal animation (signaling relational engagement) from instability, and Indigenous minimal expressivity (encoding respect) from disengagement. Each chapter systematically deconstructs high-risk misinterpretations while providing actionable analytical guidance for diplomats, negotiators, clinicians, intelligence professionals, and organizational leaders operating in multicultural environments.The manual maintains rigorous ethical boundaries throughout, emphasizing that body language reveals shifts in internal state, not intent, truth status, or moral character. Dedicated sections address power asymmetry in behavioral assessment, neurodiversity considerations, informed consent requirements, and the critical distinction between cognitive load and emotional arousal. Rather than promising infallible "lie detection," this volume equips readers with probabilistic reasoning tools that acknowledge uncertainty while enhancing situational awareness.Featuring over 40 culture-specific reference tables covering facial expressions, paralanguage (pitch, volume, resonance, inflection), gestures, proxemics, and autonomic signals, Volume 5 transforms body language analysis from a speculative art into a disciplined practice of contextual pattern recognition. When integrated with the foundational principles established in preceding volumes, this manual enables professionals to navigate high-stakes human interactions with greater precision, cultural humility, and ethical responsibility, recognizing that the most sophisticated reading of others begins with awareness of one's own interpretive biases.As part of the "Political Reviews" series, this volume situates nonverbal behavior within the analysis of power, legitimacy, negotiation dynamics, and elite decision-making across political and institutional settings.It extends the series' commitment to evidence-based political analysis by treating human signaling as a strategic variable in diplomacy, governance, and international affairs.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In this fourth volume of the acclaimed "Political Reviews" series, Dr. Mostafa A. Ebrahim delivers a masterful analysis of the Middle East's transformation from an era of external hegemony toward a complex, multipolar order defined by the strategic agency of regional powers. Moving beyond na…rratives of chaos or simplistic great-power competition, Volume 4 introduces the pivotal concept of "hinge moments", structural inflection points where accumulated pressures converge with catalytic events to fundamentally reconfigure power dynamics, institutional capacities, and strategic trajectories.Dr. Ebrahim examines how pivotal turning points, from the 2003 Iraq War and 2008 financial crisis to the Arab Uprisings, Syrian civil war, Abraham Accords, and the 2023 Gaza conflict, have progressively eroded unipolar dominance while creating space for regional actors to assert unprecedented autonomy. Central to this analysis is the emergence of "sub-hegemonic" powers, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Egypt, the UAE, and Israel, that exercise decisive influence within bounded domains without achieving comprehensive regional dominance. These actors navigate a fragmented landscape through strategic autonomy: deliberately diversifying partnerships across competing global powers, investing in indigenous capabilities, and leveraging economic statecraft to preserve freedom of maneuver.The volume demonstrates that the Middle East is not descending into anarchy but evolving toward a system of "managed instability", a negotiated multipolarity where competition coexists with functional cooperation, escalation is calibrated rather than eliminated, and stability emerges through mutual restraint rather than imposed order. Climate stress, demographic pressures, technological disruption, and energy transition are reshaping the very foundations of regional power, while states like Egypt and Israel function as stabilizing anchors within this volatile architecture.Political Reviews: Volume 4 provides policymakers, scholars, and strategic analysts with an indispensable framework for navigating the region's complexities. Rejecting both alarmist predictions of collapse and naive expectations of rapid democratization, Dr. Ebrahim offers a precautionary yet optimistic assessment: the Middle East's future stability will depend not on the restoration of external hegemony but on the capacity of regional states to build institutional resilience, manage rivalry through structured cooperation, and translate strategic autonomy into inclusive development. In an era of global uncertainty, this work illuminates how the Middle East is becoming a laboratory for a new form of international order, one defined not by hierarchy but by negotiated interdependence among capable, adaptive states determined to shape their own destinies.BiteBack Press This item is printed on demand.
