Book The Oxford Encyclopedia of Women in World History

Download or read book The Oxford Encyclopedia of Women in World History written by Bonnie G. Smith and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 2710 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encyclopedia of Women in World History captures the experiences of women throughout world history in a comprehensive, 4-volume work. Although there has been extensive research on women in history by region, no text or reference work has comprehensively covered the role women have played throughout world history. The past thirty years have seen an explosion of research and effort to present the experiences and contributions of women not only in the Western world but across the globe. Historians have investigated womens daily lives in virtually every region and have researched the leadership roles women have filled across time and region. They have found and demonstrated that there is virtually no historical, social, or demographic change in which women have not been involved and by which their lives have not been affected. The Oxford Encyclopedia of Women in World History benefits greatly from these efforts and experiences, and illuminates how women worldwide have influenced and been influenced by these historical, social, and demographic changes. The Encyclopedia contains over 1,250 signed articles arranged in an A-Z format for ease of use. The entries cover six main areas: biographies; geography and history; comparative culture and society, including adoption, abortion, performing arts; organizations and movements, such as the Egyptian Uprising, and the Paris Commune; womens and gender studies; and topics in world history that include slave trade, globalization, and disease. With its rich and insightful entries by leading scholars and experts, this reference work is sure to be a valued, go-to resource for scholars, college and high school students, and general readers alike.

Download or read book House of HR written by Meher Sheikh and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on 2022-01-11 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: House of HR is a debut book containing Meher’s personal narrative of the trials and triumphs she’s experienced and the lessons she’s learned as a Pakistani, and now American, woman navigating the international corporate world of Human Resources. Through this book, she hopes to offer powerful encouragements and living proof that regardless of the challenges life sends your way, if you keep a sharp mind, a resilient heart, and a humble spirit, you too can turn your dreams into reality. Born in Pakistan in the 1970s, Meher grew up in a predominantly patriarchal society where custom dictated that females suppress ambitions for higher education and professional employment in favor of a traditionally subordinate domestic role. But, contrary to cultural expectations, Meher dreamed of a life of fierce independence and unbounded professional achievement from a very young age. Today, her success as an international Human Resources professional and now as an entrepreneur against all odds is so miraculous, that she feels compelled to reach out to other aspiring men and women. She shares her experiences and tips for success through the lens of the Human Resources function. In your life, you are either an employee or an employer. The department of Human Resources is the bridge that connects and builds a compatible relationship between the respective livelihoods of the employer and employee. In our busy everyday lives, we don’t have enough time to completely understand how the world of HR works so we can use it to our advantage. Meher wanted to develop something simple and short, but with inclusive topics that would make a difference in an employee’s work life, and at the same time, give the employer some interesting ideas. Her narrative will provide you with a deep understanding of the various functions of HR using the analogy of a house. In this book, we will walk through the House of HR together with Meher. As she walks you through the “House of HR” and its rooms, or functional areas, she shares fundamental principles and relevant knowledge that she has accumulated over her 18-year career. The chapters you will read in this book are for educational purposes and are laid out in story arrangements embedded with her professional and personal key learnings. Interwoven into the lessons are practical strategies for navigating the corporate world and inspiring stories of courage and perseverance. Meher’s life was full of challenges and failures that stand alongside her successes. She has felt the fear of failure, and she wants to tell the reader, it’s all right to be rejected and to fail, it's all right to be imperfect, it’s all right to be afraid. The only thing that matters is to keep living, to keep going, and to keep moving forward. Meher took her failures in her stride and saw them as learning opportunities, After reading this book, she prays you will feel motivated to fearlessly pursue your most profound aspirations and knows your deeper comprehension of HR will provide a sense of empowerment along the way. Her purpose is not only to educate you, but also to strengthen and protect your heart, as the heart houses your spirit, your motivations, and your fears. I hope you enjoy this unique American Pakistani woman’s journey through the House of Human Resources. Book Review 1: "The book house of HR is an honest effort by Meher in penning down her journey the cultural bias and international corporate arena. She has poured her heart out in providing meaningful insight and genuine perspective of HR universe using herself as and exemplary individual who stood victorious by taking challenges head on and not deterring from her stance to achieve what she believed she was capable of." -- Noor Khan-Rehan Book Review 2: "If you love a good story or have any interest in HR, you won’t be disappointed! A lifelong pursuit of enlightenment and happiness—with bumps and successes along the way—is how I would describe the personal and professional journeys taken in this book. Meher expertly weaves her own struggles and triumphs with important information on Human Resources throughout the House of HR. You will come out of this book with a solid understanding of all aspects of HR, plus a heartfelt appreciation for this inspiring woman’s journey through life and around the world." -- Lacy Newkirk

Book Women and Globalization

Download or read book Women and Globalization written by Delia D. Aguilar and published by Humanities Press International. This book was released on 2004 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delia D. Aguilar and Anne E. Lacsamana have assembled a collection of articles showing the various ways in which the neoliberal agenda of globalization has drawn women into productive labor and in the process radically reshaped their lives in the reproductive sphere. Implemented primarily through the structural adjustment programs required by international financial agencies, neoliberalism has intensified women's exploitation on the assembly line and spawned an unprecedented diaspora of women as mail-order brides, domestic helpers, and workers in the sex trade. Many of the essays describe the appalling conditions that characterize these work sites. Not less important, they underscore the vitality of grassroots organizations where women collectively wage battles for better work lives and envision a system more humane than what currently exists.

Book Encyclopedia of Social Deviance

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Social Deviance written by Craig J. Forsyth and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 857 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social deviance does not involve just criminal behavior—it’s any behavior that violates a cultural norm, and that can involve something as minor as consistently and deliberately wearing lively mismatched socks. Moreover, whether a crime, a sin, or simply unique taste, what’s considered deviant at one time and place can change, as when extensive tattooing and "body art" evolved from a sideshow carnival spectacle to a nearly universal rite of passage within U.S. culture. Drawing contributions from across the social and behavioral sciences, including sociology, anthropology, criminology, politics, psychology, and religion, the Encyclopedia of Social Deviance introduces students to this lively field of rule-making and rebellion that strikes at the core of what it means to be an individual living in a social world. Key Features: More than 300 articles are organized A-to-Z in two volumes available in both electronic and print formats. Articles, authored by key figures in the field, conclude with cross-reference links and further readings. Although organized A-to-Z, a thematic “Reader’s Guide” groups related articles by broad areas (e.g., Concepts; Theories; Research Methodologies; Individual Deviance; Organizational Deviance; etc.) as one handy search feature on the e-Reference platform, which also includes a comprehensive index of search terms.

Book Encyclopedia of Christianity in the Global South

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Christianity in the Global South written by Mark A. Lamport and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-06-01 with total page 1119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity has transformed many times in its 2,000-year history, from its roots in the Middle East to its presence around the world today. From the mid-twentieth century onward the presence of Christianity has increased dramatically in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, and the majority of the world’s Christians are now nonwhite and non-Western. The Encyclopedia of Christianity in the Global South traces both the historical evolution and contemporary themes in Christianity in more than 150 countries and regions. The volumes include maps, images, and a detailed timeline of key events. The phrases “Global Christianity” and “World Christianity” are inadequate to convey the complexity of the countries and regions involved—this encyclopedia, with its more than 500 entries, aims to offer rich perspectives on the varieties of Christianity where it is growing, how the spread of Christianity shapes the faith in various regions, and how the faith is changing worldwide.
