Book Synopsis The Last of Her Kind by : Sigrid Nunez
Download or read book The Last of Her Kind written by Sigrid Nunez and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2006-12-12 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paths of two women from different walks of life intersect amid counterculture of the 1960s in this haunting and provocative novel from the National Book Award-winning author of The Friend Named a Best Book of the Year by the San Francisco Chronicle and the Christian Science Monitor Sigrid Nunez's The Last of Her Kind introduces two women who meet as freshmen on the Columbia campus in 1968. Georgette George does not know what to make of her brilliant, idealistic roommate, Ann Drayton, and her obsessive disdain for the ruling class into which she was born. She is mortified by Ann's romanticization of the underprivileged class, which Georgette herself is hoping college will enable her to escape. After the violent fight that ends their friendship, Georgette wants only to forget Ann and to turn her attention to the troubled runaway kid sister who has reappeared after years on the road. Then, in 1976, Ann is convicted of murder. At first, Ann's fate appears to be the inevitable outcome of her belief in the moral imperative to "make justice" in a world where "there are no innocent white people." But, searching for answers to the riddle of this friend of her youth, Georgette finds more complicated and mysterious forces at work. The novel's narrator Georgette illuminates the terrifying life of this difficult, doomed woman, and in the process discovers how much their early encounter has determined her own path, and why, decades later, as she tells us, "I have never stopped thinking about her."
Book Synopsis What Kind of Death by : Govert den Hartogh
Download or read book What Kind of Death written by Govert den Hartogh and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-10-31 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books have been published about physician-assisted death. This book offers a comprehensive and in-depth examination of that subject, but it also extends the discussion to a broader range of end-of-life decisions including suicide, palliative care and sedation until death. In every jurisdiction that has laws permitting some kind of physician-assisted death, a central point of controversy is whether such assistance should only be available to dying patients, or to everyone who wants to end his life. The right to determine the manner and time of one’s own death, however, does not necessarily mean that physicians should be permitted to cooperate in ensuring a quick and peaceful death. In this book, Govert den Hartogh considers the fundamental and practical matters – including concrete issues of legal regulation – related to end-of life decision making. He proposes a two-tiered system. Everyone should have access to humane means of ending his life, if his decision to end it is voluntary, well-considered and durable. But doctors should only participate in a joint action of ending the patient’s life on his request if they also are convinced of acting in the patient’s best interests, in particular by ending intolerable and unrelievable suffering. And perhaps there is reason to restrict that second service to dying patients. The whole argument, however, depends on the extent to which, in both tiers of the system, we can design legal safeguards that will enable us to trust judgments about the requesting person’s request and about his suffering. The book considers much new evidence in regard to this issue. What Kind of Death will appeal to researchers and advanced students working in bioethics, applied ethics, philosophy of law and health law.

Book Synopsis What Kind of Tree Are You? by : J. Victor Walker
Download or read book What Kind of Tree Are You? written by J. Victor Walker and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trees are diverse in nature and characteristics. People, parallel to trees, exemplify behavioral traits that can brand them as successful or as a failure regardless of where they are in their life cycle and Christian walk. Whether you are a short, tall, wide, or a fruit-producing tree, you are still a tree filled with purpose. God designed us with benefits and a plan for success. We have been afforded the opportunity to bear fruit that has been invested in us, or we can simply do nothing and be cursed at the root (see Matthew 21:18 19 KJV).

Book Synopsis The Wrong Kind of Different by : Antonia Randolph
Download or read book The Wrong Kind of Different written by Antonia Randolph and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can multiculturalism go wrong? Through extensive interviews conducted in a large Midwestern district, Antonia Randolph explores how teachers perceive students from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds and the unintended consequences of a kind of "colorblind multiculturalism." She unearths a hierarchy of acceptance and legitimacy that excludes most poor Black students and favors certain immigrant minorities. In addition, she discovers how some teachers distinguish their support for certain forms of student diversity from curriculum diversity, such as accommodating bilingual education, which they find burdensome. This provocative book challenges readers to look beyond the surface benefits of diversity and raises issues about American schools that need to be addressed, including: How school diversity policy has become detached from concerns about equity and social justice, how teachers see diversity as a "good" thing as long as it doesn't inconvenience them or lower their schools' scores on standardized tests, how some immigrant children receive favorable treatment sanctioned by multicultural ideology and practice, how many African-American students and schools suffer racial penalties for being "the wrong kind of different."
