This is a bundle of no less than SIX previously-released stories. They are the first six episodes in the on-going “Femdom Future” series. 1. Rigorous Retraining In a near-future femdom world, being unemployed and male is a crime, punishable by retraining in special centres staffed by cruel sadistic females. Prime Minister Tessa March is a no-nonsense disciplinarian who has decided that what the country needs is good old-fashioned discipline. Rigorous retraining for anti-social sexists! 2. More Rigorous Retraining In a near-future femdom UK, ruled by Prime Minister Tessa March, a no-nonsense disciplinarian, it has been decided that what the country needs is good old-fashioned discipline. Rigorous retraining for anti-social sexists! Being unemployed and male is now a crime, punishable by retraining in special centres staffed by cruel sadistic females. As time passed, the regime of the camps has become more rigorous. Trainees have become slaves in all but name, and their names replaced by numbers… 3. The Auction The changes wrought by Tessa March's all-female administration have transformed the country. The majority of men have now passed through rigorous retraining; and many of them have entered into servitude as punishment for criminal behaviour! Their names replaced by code-numbers, subject to stern discipline, kept naked and in chastity, modern life is no bed of roses for the male sex! 4. National Domestic Service Although up in London nude males are already bought and sold and serve as slaves in all sorts of ways, including in public as beasts of burden pulling buggies for ladies, the rest of the country is not quite so advanced. Originally male servitude was intended only for criminals and work-shy layabouts; but the demand for male ‘servants’ (as they are still euphemistically called) has so exceeded the supply that the government has introduced “National Domestic Service”. Now, youths of eighteen must do a full year of in service to a householder — that is to say, a woman aged twenty-five or over. Of course, there are strict rules to prevent abuse; but where there's a will, there's a way, as many a hapless youth has already discovered! And now a ‘new boy’ is going to make that discovery for himself… 5. Punishment Prison This is a look into the future. A future when women have become fully liberated and universally recognised as the Superior Sex. A future where Women command and men obey. It is a Femdom Future. In this, the fifth installment of Miranda Birch's “Femdom Future” series, we see what awaits those recalcitrant males who refuse to submit and obey. In Punishment Prison, they will be broken: it is only a question of time. And meanwhile, the female Overseers are free to indulge their most sadistic whims, their most perverted fantasies… 6. Abuse of Power This is a look into the future. A future when women have become fully liberated and universally recognised as the Superior Sex. A future where women command and men obey. It is a Femdom Future. In “Punishment Prison”, we were introduced to the severe regime of Marston House. And how all males sent here are broken by cruel, sadistic females. In this, the sixth installment of the “Femdom Future” series, we see what special treatments are meted out to those inmates unlucky enough to attract the attention of authority. The female overseers have complete control of hem, and are free to indulge their most sadistic whims, their most perverted fantasies…

Occupational therapists are expected to maintain their knowledge of best practice by independently keeping up to date on the latest research. With this work, the authors have assembled the evidence for effectiveness of occupational therapy for adults and older adults. It brings together the latest published peer-reviewed literature, conceptual approaches, outcome measures, and intervention approaches to address the three main areas by: Identifying a finite set of interventions which occupational therapists deliver most often, and providing details of those intervention approaches; Identifying where the research evidence shows that occupational therapists can achieve specific positive effects as a result of those interventions; Identifying the outcome measures most commonly and reliably used by researchers in occupational therapy to demonstrate the effects of interventions. The authors have comprehensively reviewed all of the intervention effectiveness literature for occupational therapy provided for adults. The material reviewed crosses all diagnostic categories and areas of practice for adults and older adults. Analysis of over 500 research studies and systematic reviews form the basis for this book.
