Book excerpt: La Jolla, California, famously known as "The Jewel," is noted for its natural beauty and appealing Mediterranean-like climate. Magnificent sea cliffs and caves, bathing coves, and sandy beaches have attracted visitors, developers, and residents since the 1880s. By the early 1900s, a small community developed with artists congregating to the internationally known Green Dragon Colony. Newspaper heiress Ellen Browning Scripps and her half-sister Eliza Virginia established residences and became the community's renowned philanthropists. Many beautiful homes and institutions, along with a growing commercial district next to the sea, owe their designs to architect Irving Gill. Today La Jolla still attracts visitors from around the world and is home to the rich, the famous, the avant-garde, and intelligentsia.

Book excerpt: Tara Sellers has an identity problem… Scratching out a living as a paparazzi photographer, she’s horrified to go from a serially abandoned ward of the state doing the best she can to the illegitimate daughter of one of the richest men in the nation. Suddenly, everything she thought she knew about herself is a lie and the two men who are now her brothers look at her as if she’s out to ruin their lives. All Tara wants is a moment to breathe, take in what’s happening and figure out how not to feel like a stranger in her own skin. Dr. Perry Chase has a proximity problem... The unofficially adopted son of the Remingtons, Chase has spent more than a decade trying to repair the wounds that have torn his family apart. Now he's been unwillingly roped into helping Tara figure out her new life. But when the private lessons start turning into private moments, he’s starting to lose sight of where his loyalties lie. With the family he’d give anything to put back together or the woman who is stealing pieces of his heart every moment he’s with her? All the while, a deadly stranger is watching. Waiting for the perfect opportunity to steal everything Tara holds dear. Her friends. Her family. Her love. Soon, it won’t be about Tara’s choice to accept her life. All that will matter is how hard she’ll fight to save it.
Book Synopsis The Lewin Legacy by : Eugene Stivers
Download or read book The Lewin Legacy written by Eugene Stivers and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have attended quite a few conferences and meetings devoted to the ideas of Kurt Lewin. Among these the 1984 conference at Temple was out standing for its high quality. What made it so successful? Several things. The conference included a stimulating mix of generations. The first generation of women who obtained their Ph. D. 's in psychology in Berlin in the 1920's strike me as a remarkable group. Now in their 80's, they are characterized by enormous vigor and energy. They are still professionally active. Two of them - Tamara Dembo and Maria Rickers Ovsienkina - joined us. Other participants in the Temple conference had been in Iowa in the 1930's and 1940's, or at MIT. Of course there were many who had learned about Lewin from their own teachers, and in some cases, their teachers' teachers. There was a good mixture of ap plied psychologists and academics. Father said on several occasions that he did not want to found a school of psychology as such. Rather he wanted to introduce the field theoretical viewpoint and approach. I think he would have been stimulated by and enthusiastic about the many diverse areas to which Lewinian analy ses, ideas, and concepts are applied today, as illustrated by this volume. He would have been pleased to see so many people applying basic theoreti cal concepts to important social problems. Father loved to discover new things about America.

Book Synopsis Enduring Legacy by : William Henry Kellar
Download or read book Enduring Legacy written by William Henry Kellar and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2014-04-04 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the heart of Houston stands the Texas Medical Center. This dense complex of educational, clinical, and hospital facilities offers state-of-the-art patient care, basic science, and applied research in more than fifty medicine-related institutions. Three medical schools, four schools of nursing, and schools of dentistry, public health, and pharmacology occupy the thousand-acre campus. But none of this would exist if not for the generosity and vision of Monroe Dunaway Anderson, who, in 1936, established the foundation that bears his name. The M. D. Anderson Foundation ultimately became the driving force behind creating and shaping this leading-edge medical complex into what it is today. Enduring Legacy: The M. D. Anderson Foundation and the Texas Medical Center provides a unique perspective on the indispensable role the foundation played in the creation of the Texas Medical Center. It also offers a case study of how public and private institutions worked together to create this veritable city of health that has since become the largest medical complex in human history. Historian William Henry Kellar caps off a decade of research on institutions and characters associated with the Texas Medical Center. He draws on oral histories, extensive archival work, and a growing secondary literature to provide an absorbing account of this leading institution of modern medicine and the philanthropy that made it possible.

Book Synopsis Contemporary Neuropsychology and the Legacy of Luria by : Elkhonon Goldberg
Download or read book Contemporary Neuropsychology and the Legacy of Luria written by Elkhonon Goldberg and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best known as a founding father of neuropsychology, Luria is remembered for his clinical approach, which in many ways foreshadowed and served as the basis for the currently popular "process approach" to neuropsychological diagnosis. Although he never completed the job of designing a general theory of brain- behavioral relations, he nonetheless contributed mightily to the ongoing effort to develop one, and to the emergence of neuropsychology as a mature science. Written by professionals who either knew Alexandr Romanovich Luria personally or experienced his scientific influence, the topics examined in this volume reflect the expanse of his interests and contributions.

Book Synopsis Legacy of a False Promise by : Margaret Fuchs Singer
Download or read book Legacy of a False Promise written by Margaret Fuchs Singer and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2012-06 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The compelling story of a teenage girl caught up in the throes of the McCarthy era. Margaret Fuchs was thirteen in June 1955 when she learned that her parents had been Communists while working for the U.S. government in the 1930s and '40s. This book chronicles the years during which her parents were exposed and her father was subpoenaed before the House Un-American Activities Committee. Eventually he named names, and subsequently lost his job as a law professor at American University, and was blacklisted from teaching ever again. Legacy of a False Promise also details the author's quest as an adult to learn whether or not her parents ever spied for the Soviet Union. Based on eight years of research using family records, FBI files, American University archives, personal interviews, and the recently declassified Venona cables, Legacy of a False Promise offers unique insights into the McCarthy Era. Most "red-diaper babies" who have written on the subject had parents who refused to give in to HUAC's demands. Singer's work instead recounts the shame and series of betrayals that her father's decision to name names brought to her family. Furthermore, it explores the campaign of the liberal anti-Communist movement to publicize its political position while defending a fired ex-Communist professor, the nature and activities of secret Communist underground cells, and the motivation of New Deal government workers who spied for the Soviets. This is a poignant meditation on family secrets, father-daughter relationships in times of crisis, teenage loneliness in the midst of trauma, and the effects of parents' actions on the lives of their children. It also serves as a timely reminder of the dangers of sacrificing civil liberties in the name of national security.
