Book excerpt: Danior’s back … and he’s out for revenge. The malevolent Danior has escaped from custody. Des’s Gypsy clan don’t know where he is or what he’s up to, but they strongly suspect he’ll come after Clara, the teenage shape-shifter who captured him, and they vow they’ll do whatever they must to keep her safe. Clara’s scared. Danior’s power is rising rapidly, and her Gypsy protectors are diminishing with every attack, leaving Clara and her family at their most vulnerable. Then Clara’s world explodes in the most painful way imaginable, and a beleaguered Des is forced to make an impossible choice – keep his promise to Clara … or risk the potential disintegration of the entire Gypsy race. What readers are saying about the ‘Full Moon’ series: “I absolutely love the entire series.” “I couldn’t stop reading!” “Amazingly Addicting.” “Thank you for a great read.”
Book Synopsis The Doctor's Dilemma by : Hesba Stretton
Download or read book The Doctor's Dilemma written by Hesba Stretton and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-11 with total page 565 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Doctor's Dilemma by Hesba Stretton is about the mystery of Olivia's life. Olivia is a runaway and otherwise a stranger to a kind widower and his deaf mother. They must piece together Olivia's past and find out who she is – and what she may have done. Excerpt: "I think I was as nearly mad as I could be; nearer madness, I believe, than I shall ever be again, thank God! Three weeks of it had driven me to the very verge of desperation. I cannot say here what had brought me to this pass, for I do not know into whose hands these pages may fall; but I had made up my mind to persist in a certain line of conduct which I firmly believed to be right, while those who had authority over me and were stronger than I was, were resolutely bent upon making me submit to their will. The conflict had been going on, more or less violently, for months; now I had come very near the end of it. I felt that I must either yield or go mad."
Book Synopsis Dilemmas of Democracy and Dictatorship by : Michael Radu
Download or read book Dilemmas of Democracy and Dictatorship written by Michael Radu and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phenomenon of globalization applies to political violence as well as to more benign aspects of life. Most people in the West, as well as the Third World, politicians and media included, are still missing this point. As a result, they are failing to adapt to the new realities--unlike their enemies. Dilemmas of Democracy and Dictatorship is a collection of essays Radu has published over the past decade. Some are opinion pieces; others are academic articles. The topics include political violence and terrorism in general, and in specific areas--Latin America, the Balkans, Turkey, Sub-Saharan Africa, Western and Eastern Europe. Radu discusses the causes and methods of contemporary terrorism, the process of state decay in some African countries, and mentalities and absurdities in Latin and Balkan politics. He also points out Western European illusions, delusions, and attitudes, and reviews American policy and confusion in dealing with the Third World. At times the analysis is political, other times military, and often it is sociological or psychological. In the author's words he is "always politically incorrect." The approach is multidisciplinary. What ties these disparate essays together is Radu's personal experience--both as a field researcher and in a few cases as a participant in ongoing events, and his personal idiosyncrasies, opinions, and perception of areas visited. These essays clearly demonstrate that in the face of globalization the world is not a village but a conglomerate of differences. This volume will be of particular interest to students of political violence, insurgency/guerrilla warfare, and Third World politics, journalists, and policymakers. Michael S. Radu is senior fellow and co-chairman of the Center on Terrorism at the Foreign Policy Research Institute in Philadelphia. Educated in communist Romania and at Columbia University, he has taught in the United States and South Africa. He has traveled to over forty countries doing research on local politics and political violence and has served as electoral observer in four countries, including as a UN observer in Cambodia. He is the author or editor of ten books.

Kish is known for her work on social work, race and racism, including researching border controls and IT in the EU; globalization in relation to social work values, troubled families, and black and minority ethnic children in care; and inter-professional working in a culturally-appropriate way. Chris Smethurst is Head of the Department of Childhood, Social Work and Social Care at the University of Chichester. Chris previously worked in a range of social work and social care settings: in community work, youth work, residential child care, day services, and in learning disability and community mental health teams. This experience informed a keen interest in the impact of social attitudes on social policy and on the day-to-day work of practitioners and organizations. How has the increasing diversity of service user groups transformed the practice of social work? Social workers are increasingly working in complex and diverse situations with a wide variety of groups including those disadvantaged by social class, race, ethnicity, disability, religion, culture, gender and sexual orientation. This book is therefore for social work professionals, students, academics and practice educators. The editors and authors draw on specialist knowledge, tools and methods regarding working with diversity to support the development of practice skills and behaviours along with positive attitudes. Readers are encouraged to analyse and reflect on dilemmas in social work arising from marginalisation and discrimination, while case studies and summaries highlight assumptions, stereotypes and labels faced by diverse service user groups such as Roma people, black and ethnic minority groups, and deafblind people. Topics covered include: • Diversity and difference • Inequality and social work • Cultural competence in social work practice • Being white and feeling guilty • Professional social work identities • Religion and spirituality *** This book forms part of the Social Work Skills in Practice series. The series focuses on key social work skills required for working with children and adult service users, families and carers. The books offer both theoretical and evidence-informed knowledge, alongside the application of skills relevant for day-to-day social work practice. They are an invaluable resource for pre-qualifying students, newly-qualified social workers, academics teaching and researching in the field, as well as social work practitioners, including practice educators, pursuing continuous professional development.
Book Synopsis Lessons from the Gypsy Camp by : Elizabeth Appell
Download or read book Lessons from the Gypsy Camp written by Elizabeth Appell and published by Scribes Valley Publishing. This book was released on 2004-02-15 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE YEAR IS 1955. Eisenhower is president, the McCarthy hearings are over, and Lolly Candolin has given her father an ultimatum: "Stop drinking or I'll cut my hair." Her father, refusing to have his life dictated by a ten-year-old child, retaliates by tossing Lolly's aged cat Bo, wrapped in a burlap sack, down into a gypsy camp from the high levee surrounding the town. Going against everything she's been told, Lolly ventures into the gypsy camp on her own, where she befriends a cast of misfits, including: Tick, a tomboy her own age; Sophia, Tick's mother and gifted healer; and Sam, the unofficial leader of Cougarville, and the owner of a pet cougar. It's not long before Lolly and her new friends are caught in a maelstrom of murder and intrigue as the county sheriff is shot and killed at a local saloon, with all evidence pointing to Sam. Lolly's father, the county prosecutor with everything to lose, goes after the case full bore, determined to see Sam convicted and executed. Things become even more complicated for Lolly when, during a clandestine mission to warn the Cougarville residents of her father's brutal intentions, she discovers the identity of the true killer, putting into motion a terrible dilemma that no young girl should ever have to face. Revealing her evidence will not only set an innocent man free, but destroy both her father's career and any chance of winning what she yearns for most: her father's approval. Elizabeth Appell's debut novel, LESSONS FROM THE GYPSY CAMP explores the tension between individualism and family obligation, the complexity of discerning right from wrong, and the overwhelming consequences of pursuing truth and justice.

Book Synopsis Digital Dilemmas by : Cristina Venegas
Download or read book Digital Dilemmas written by Cristina Venegas and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-19 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contentious debate in Cuba over Internet use and digital media primarily focuses on three issuesùmaximizing the potential for economic and cultural development, establishing stronger ties to the outside world, and changing the hierarchy of control. A growing number of users decry censorship and insist on personal freedom in accessing the web, while the centrally managed system benefits the government in circumventing U.S. sanctions against the country and in controlling what limited capacity exists. Digital Dilemmas views Cuba from the Soviet Union's demise to the present, to assess how conflicts over media access play out in their both liberating and repressive potential. Drawing on extensive scholarship and interviews, Cristina Venegas questions myths of how Internet use necessarily fosters global democracy and reveals the impact of new technologies on the country's governance and culture. She includes film in the context of broader media history, as well as artistic practices such as digital art and networks of diasporic communities connected by the Web. This book is a model for understanding the geopolitic location of power relations in the age of digital information sharing.

Download or read book Romani Routes written by Carol Silverman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-14 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now that the political and economic plight of European Roma and the popularity of their music are objects of international attention, Romani Routes provides a timely and insightful view into Romani communities both in their home countries and in the diaspora. Over the past two decades, a steady stream of recordings, videos, feature films, festivals, and concerts has presented the music of Balkan Gypsies, or Roma, to Western audiences, who have greeted them with exceptional enthusiasm. Yet, as author Carol Silverman notes, Roma are revered as musicians and reviled as people. In this book, Silverman introduces readers to the people and cultures who produce this music, offering a sensitive and incisive analysis of how Romani musicians address the challenges of discrimination. Focusing on southeastern Europe then moving to the diaspora, her book examines the music within Romani communities, the lives and careers of outstanding musicians, and the marketing of music in the electronic media and "world music" concert circuit. Silverman touches on the way that the Roma exemplify many qualities--adaptability, cultural hybridity, transnationalism--that are taken to characterize late modern experience. And rather than just celebrating these qualities, she presents the musicians as complicated, pragmatic individuals who work creatively within the many constraints that inform their lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge International Companion to Gifted Education is a ground-breaking collection of fully-referenced chapters written by many of the most highly-respected authorities on the subject from around the world. These fifty contributors include distinguished scholars who have produced many of the most significant advances to the field over the past few decades, like Joseph Renzulli and Robert Sternberg, alongside authorities who ask questions about the very concepts and terminology embodied in the field – scholars such as Carol Dweck and Guy Claxton. This multi-faceted volume: highlights strategies to support giftedness in children, providing ideas that work and weeding out those that don’t; is written in jargon-free language in an easy-to use themed format; is the most authoritative collection of future-focused views, ideas and reflections, practices and evaluations yet produced; includes chapters dealing with the major controversies and concerns in the field today, from the problems of identification to changing understandings of giftedness and creativity. The international aspect of the Companion, and its juxtaposition of points of view – whereby chapters are deliberately positioned and accompanied by editorial commentary to highlight the contrasts with each other – ensures that different views are addressed, allowing the reader to absorb and reflect upon the many perspectives on each issue. The Companion is a guide to the new ideas and controversies that are informing gifted education discussion and policy-making around the world. It is a first class resource to students and researchers alike.
