Jim Wilson Bücher

Wie kann man Kinder, Jugendliche und deren Familien in der Therapie am besten erreichen? Und wie lassen sich junge Leute in gemeinsame Gespräche und Problemlösungen einbeziehen? Jim Wilson plädiert für einen „spielerisch-ernsthaften“ Ansatz und nimmt die Leser: innen mit auf eine Entdeckungsreise zu Möglichkeiten, das eigene therapeutisch-beraterische Tun mit Kreativität und Fantasie zu bereichern und dabei persönliche Beschränkungen zu überwinden. Jim Wilson knüpft an Theorien der systemischen Familientherapie an, plädiert für eine radikal humanistische, narrative Praxis und zeigt, wie Ko-Kreativität den auf das Kind fokussierten Ansatz im therapeutischen Setting bereichern kann – sei es in der Sozialarbeit, der Psychiatrie oder anderen kinderpsychologischen Diensten. Ausführliche Fallbeispiele veranschaulichen, wie Familiensitzungen auch bei ernsten Themen spielerisch gelingen.

Bitterness can stem from seemingly minor grievances, such as an offhand comment, an unintentional insult, or everyday annoyances like clutter. The narrative explores how these small offenses can escalate, affecting relationships and emotional well-being. Through this lens, the book delves into the complexities of human interactions and the importance of addressing grievances before they fester into deeper resentment.

The elite police officers secretly launching Scotland's biggest ever offensive against organised crime had only one target. His name was Jamie Stevenson, but he was known as The Iceman, the biggest drugs trafficker the country has ever seen. Suspected of a string of murders - including the gangland assassination of his best friend—Stevenson's decade-long rise was built on ruthless ambition, strategic cunning and calculated, brutal violence. It left him at the head of one of Europe's biggest smuggling operations pouring tons of drugs and guns onto the streets of Scotland. The Iceman tells the astonishing story of Stevenson's rise and fall, offering a unique and explosive insight into Operation Folklore, the unprecedented four-year investigation that ended in his arrest. It lays bare the blood-soaked business of Scotland's most powerful crime lord and, for the first time, exposes how he made—and laundered—his dirty millions.
