Book Synopsis The Book of My Son Reuben by : David Cohen
Download or read book The Book of My Son Reuben written by David Cohen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-23 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I wish I had not had to write this book because then my lovely son Reuben would still be alive," says David Cohen. "He was adorable, formidably intelligent, a loving son, a loving brother. He died far too young. He had the bad luck to have two grandparents who had addictive personalities. His efforts to resist the lure of drugs failed. And so did I." The Book of My Son Reuben is a personal account of how psychologist David Cohen coped – and did not cope – with the death of his son, Reuben. Offering a unique perspective on the experience of parental loss, it offers a personal and analytical exploration of sorrow and guilt, and of what research tells us about trauma and grief. Illustrated throughout with David Cohen’s personal insight into how he continues to navigate his loss, this honest book provides a deeper understanding of loss for parents who have experienced it, as well as those who support them. The book remembers the many parents who have lost children throughout history and chapters weave personal perspectives with the latest research. It examines the experience of sudden deaths, the failures of society in preventing children from dying, the role of social media, how the loss of a child impacts fathers, siblings and relationships, and the usefulness – or otherwise – of bereavement therapies. A tribute to Reuben’s life, this sensitive volume is for those who have experienced loss and want to gain better understanding of their experience, as well as psychologists, psychotherapists and counsellors working with families.

Download or read book Reuben, Reuben written by Peter De Vries and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-11-19 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Reuben Reuben "is set in mid 1950s suburbia in Connecticut and starts out being told from the point of view of a grumpy but corruptible chicken farmer. The novel s second part recounts what happens when a womanizing poet from Wales (clearly Dylan Thomas) visits this new-to-him world of tidy lawns and cocktail parties and liberated lady poets. In the final third, a British poet/agent named Mopworth continues the story of the confused suburban literati. Fast-paced, devastating, energetic, and laugh-out-loud funny, it also has a manic note to it, as if the author were Scheherazade-like; being compulsively entertainingscrambling to amuse the reader with stories and jokes lest serious questions arise."

Book Synopsis Halfway Home by : Reuben Jonathan Miller
Download or read book Halfway Home written by Reuben Jonathan Miller and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A "persuasive and essential" (Matthew Desmond) work that will forever change how we look at life after prison in America through Miller's "stunning, and deeply painful reckoning with our nation's carceral system" (Heather Ann Thompson). Each year, more than half a million Americans are released from prison and join a population of twenty million people who live with a felony record. Reuben Miller, a chaplain at the Cook County Jail in Chicago and now a sociologist studying mass incarceration, spent years alongside prisoners, ex-prisoners, their friends, and their families to understand the lifelong burden that even a single arrest can entail. What his work revealed is a simple, if overlooked truth: life after incarceration is its own form of prison. The idea that one can serve their debt and return to life as a full-fledge member of society is one of America's most nefarious myths. Recently released individuals are faced with jobs that are off-limits, apartments that cannot be occupied and votes that cannot be cast. As The Color of Law exposed about our understanding of housing segregation, Halfway Home shows that the American justice system was not created to rehabilitate. Parole is structured to keep classes of Americans impoverished, unstable, and disenfranchised long after they've paid their debt to society. Informed by Miller's experience as the son and brother of incarcerated men, captures the stories of the men, women, and communities fighting against a system that is designed for them to fail. It is a poignant and eye-opening call to arms that reveals how laws, rules, and regulations extract a tangible cost not only from those working to rebuild their lives, but also our democracy. As Miller searchingly explores, America must acknowledge and value the lives of its formerly imprisoned citizens.

Download or read book Who Wet My Pants? written by Bob Shea and published by Little, Brown Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this hilarious tale of blame, compassion, and forgiveness, a very embarrassed bear is reminded that accidents can happen--but with the support of good friends, life goes on. Reuben the bear's got donuts for everyone in his scout troop, but his friends are all staring at something else: there's a wet spot on Reuben's pants, and it's in a specific area. "WHO WET MY PANTS?" he shouts, and a blame game starts. His buddies try to reassure him there was no crime. Just an accident. It could happen to anyone! But as all the clues begin to point in Reuben's own direction as the culprit, Reuben must come to terms with the truth. Who Wet My Pants? isn't a potty-training book. It's a witty and wise story about embarrassment and anger, empathy and acceptance, and ultimately...forgiveness.

Book Synopsis Tradition and Transformation in the Book of Chronicles by : Pancratius Cornelis Beentjes
Download or read book Tradition and Transformation in the Book of Chronicles written by Pancratius Cornelis Beentjes and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph contributes to a better understanding of the Book of Chronicles. The past forty years have seen a complete transformation in the study of the Book of Chronicles. The former domination of Chronicles by parallel texts in the Books of Samuel and Kings made way for studying the historical, sociological, literary, theological, and ideological aspects of Chronicles in their own right. This book/document is now increasingly recognized as being of major interest to the Second Temple Period. Reading the book of Chronicles, it appears that the Chronicler is constantly transforming Israel's tradition(s) into a new theological and ideological system. In this study, attention is, therefore, paid both to specific texts, such as 1 Chronicles 17; 21; 2 Chronicles 20; 26, and to particular central themes, such as the special function of Jerusalem, and the peculiar way of how the Chronicler presents prophets, war narratives, and genealogies.
Book Synopsis Salvation Manual by : Nsikan E. Johnny
Download or read book Salvation Manual written by Nsikan E. Johnny and published by Grosvenor House Publishing. This book was released on 2024-07-25 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salvation Manual: Bible Made Easy through Questions and Answers for the book of Genesis is one of several books in the Salvation Manual: Bible Made Easy through Questions and Answers series. Like other books in the series, it adopts a questions and answers pattern in identifying and breaking down biblical truths in a way that will be easily understood and internalised. In a spectacular method of using questions and answers, it unravels every message, event, and character from all the chapters in the book of Genesis. The book consists of fifty chapters, one for each chapter of the book of Genesis. The questions and answers are placed at the end of each chapter to assess the degree to which the reader understands the chapter read as well as how much of the details of the chapter they retained. The book makes the reader study every chapter of the book of Genesis in two directions; the forward and reverse directions. The chapter of the book of Genesis at the beginning of each chapter of this book is the first point of contact for the reader which they have to read and understand what is contained in the chapter. After that are questions from the chapter and answers at the end of the questions, with which the reader would test their knowledge of what they had read in that chapter. These questions and answers segment presents the reader with problems which points them back to the Bible for confirmation or further studies (the forward and reverse directions). The approach to Bible studies presented in this book is remarkable as it will take its reader a step above regular Bible reading to be fully grounded in the details of the events and messages in the scriptures. The book is a tool that can challenge one's knowledge of the scripture, serve as a Bible study guide and reveal vital information that might have been overlooked or missed in the course of one's study of the scriptures.
Book Synopsis Great Psychologists as Parents by : David Cohen
Download or read book Great Psychologists as Parents written by David Cohen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-09-29 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does it make you a better parent if you have pioneered scientific theories of child development? In a unique study, David Cohen compares what great psychologists have said about raising children and the way they did it themselves. Did the experts practice what they preached? Using an eclectic variety of sources, from letters, diaries, autobiographies, biographies, as well as material from interviews, each chapter focuses on a key figure in historical context. There are many surprises. Was Piaget, the greatest child psychologist of the 20th century, the only man to try to psychoanalyse his mother? How many sons of great gurus have had to rescue their father from a police station as R.D Laing's son did? And why did Melanie Klein's daughter wear red shoes they day her mother died? The book covers early scientists such as Darwin, psychoanalysists such as Freud and Jung, to founders of developmental psychology including Piaget and Bowlby as well as Dr Spock. It gives a vivid, dramatic and often entertaining insight into the family lives of these great psychologists. It highlights their ideas and theories alongside their behaviour as parents, and reveals the impact of their parenting on their children. Close bonds, fraught relationships and family drama are described against a backdrop of scientific development as the discipline of psychology evolves. Great Psychologists as Parents will be absorbing reading for students in childhood studies, education and psychology and practitioners in psychology and psychoanalysis. It will also interest general readers looking for a parenting book with a difference.
