The Last Word
We hope you have
enjoyed reading this issue.
The "in lieu of an editorial" statement
has been removed from the top of this section and placed in
the new "The First Word"
section where it more logically belongs.
If you chanced to skip it - by error or
design - you can click on the link above and repair the
omission!
This issue contains material from some
old hands, as well as a couple of new ones, the end of our
three-part Teamwork feature and the beginning of a
three-part feature on Social Networking.
We are delighted to renew our association
with Ruth Carneson in South Africa, details of whose artwork
are contained in the Arts section of this issue as well as
the announcement that she will continue to advise us on our
artwork.
Please let us know what you would like to
see in future issues.
POTENTIAL
UNLEASHED
There have now been seven issues of
Potential Unleashed. Despite the hopes we
"nurtured" and expressed in our last issue, we have found it
impossible to maintain a reasonable quantity of material
every month, if only because of the great increase in books
for review.
We have therefore increased the size of
the monthly book review section in Potential Unleashed so as
to avoid holding too many books over for the quarterly
Nurturing Potential. We are, however, repeating all of
them in the quarterly magazine in addition to the new
reviews specifically written for that magazine.
We will continue to offer the pages of
Potential Unleashed to any of our friends who wish to use
the "blog" section or provide announcements of their
activities in the Team News section.
This issue of NNP having come
out in December 2013, the next issue of Potential Unleashed
will therefore be before the end of October 2013.

BOOK REVIEW
SECTION
We have already referred to this above,
but are repeating the following two paragraphs that appeared
in the Autumn issue of New Nurturing Potential.
We will continue to provide lists of
available titles to our subscribers, i.e. those readers who
have agreed to be included on the database, and we hope you
will all persevere with your enthusiasm for the book lists
of publishers such as Oxford University Press, Cambridge
University Press, Wiley-Blackwell, Routledge, Crown House,
Sage Publishing, Jessica Kingsley and others.
As previously, any books received for review that have
not made it into the current issue of New Nurturing
Potential will be reviewed in full (or in abbreviated
form) in Potential Unleashed and the full reviews
will appear in the subsequent issue of New
Nurturing Potential. This makes good sense for the
publishers - as well as the reviewers who are rightly proud
of their work - as the two publications only share a partial
readership: New Nurturing Potential has a greatly
expanded list of subscribers than Potential Unleashed.
FOR THE
FUTURE
New Nurturing Potential 05 will
appear
in March 2014. It will feature Part II of
the main theme of Social Networking.
Warm regards to all of you,
Joe Sinclair
