Download or read book Difference Matters written by Brenda J. Allen and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2010-07-19 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Allens proven ability and flare for presenting complex and oftentimes sensitive topics in nonthreatening ways carry over in the latest edition of Difference Matters. Her down-to-earth analysis of six social identity categories reveals how communication establishes and enacts identity and power dynamics. She provides historical overviews to show how perceptions of gender, race, social class, sexuality, ability, and age have varied throughout time and place. Allen clearly explains pertinent theoretical perspectives and illustrates those and other discussions with real-life experiences (many of which are her own). She also offers practical guidance for how to communicate difference more humanely. While many examples are from organizational contexts, readers from a wide range of backgrounds can relate to them and appreciate their relevance. This eye-opening, vibrant text, suitable for use in a variety of disciplines, motivates readers to think about valuing difference as a positive, enriching feature of society. Interactive elements such as Spotlights on Media, I.D. Checks, Tool Kits, and Reflection Matters questions awaken interest, awareness, and creative insights for change.

Book Synopsis Why Gender Matters by : Leonard Sax, M.D., Ph.D.
Download or read book Why Gender Matters written by Leonard Sax, M.D., Ph.D. and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are boys and girls really that different? Twenty years ago, doctors and researchers didn’t think so. Back then, most experts believed that differences in how girls and boys behave are mainly due to differences in how they were treated by their parents, teachers, and friends. It's hard to cling to that belief today. An avalanche of research over the past twenty years has shown that sex differences are more significant and profound than anybody guessed. Sex differences are real, biologically programmed, and important to how children are raised, disciplined, and educated. In Why Gender Matters, psychologist and family physician Dr. Leonard Sax leads parents through the mystifying world of gender differences by explaining the biologically different ways in which children think, feel, and act. He addresses a host of issues, including discipline, learning, risk taking, aggression, sex, and drugs, and shows how boys and girls react in predictable ways to different situations. For example, girls are born with more sensitive hearing than boys, and those differences increase as kids grow up. So when a grown man speaks to a girl in what he thinks is a normal voice, she may hear it as yelling. Conversely, boys who appear to be inattentive in class may just be sitting too far away to hear the teacher—especially if the teacher is female. Likewise, negative emotions are seated in an ancient structure of the brain called the amygdala. Girls develop an early connection between this area and the cerebral cortex, enabling them to talk about their feelings. In boys these links develop later. So if you ask a troubled adolescent boy to tell you what his feelings are, he often literally cannot say. Dr. Sax offers fresh approaches to disciplining children, as well as gender-specific ways to help girls and boys avoid drugs and early sexual activity. He wants parents to understand and work with hardwired differences in children, but he also encourages them to push beyond gender-based stereotypes. A leading proponent of single-sex education, Dr. Sax points out specific instances where keeping boys and girls separate in the classroom has yielded striking educational, social, and interpersonal benefits. Despite the view of many educators and experts on child-rearing that sex differences should be ignored or overcome, parents and teachers would do better to recognize, understand, and make use of the biological differences that make a girl a girl, and a boy a boy.

You may have heard that poor gum management leads to heart disease, but the damage goes far beyond that. Through chronic inflammatory processes, gum disease reflects and influences general health and aging in ways not imagined just a few years ago. MOUTH MATTERS is the first book that describes how your oral health affects your heart, blood vessels, lungs, bones, and kidneys. It reviews how gum disease can influence diabetes and pregnancy outcomes, or cause the rejection of artificial joints. It introduces oral cancer risks and jaw-joint/clenching problems. And of course it explains many people¿s biggest fear ¿ how teeth are lost without pain or any other noticeable symptoms until the end stages of the disease that leads to their loss. MOUTH MATTERS also tells you what you can do about it. If you want to live a long and vibrant life in our disease-ridden western society, you need to learn the vital strategies that control inflammation. The seeds for inflammation are sown decades before chronic inflammation expresses as disease. If you already suffer chronic inflammation, what you learn in these pages will help you douse the inflammatory fires. Educating yourself means you welcome the opportunity to take control of your health and the health of your family. Learn how to naturally strengthen your own body systems so you can resist disease, rather than create it!
