Download or read book Healing While Studying written by Richard D. Williams and published by IAP. This book was released on 2024-03-01 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This incisive work explores the multifaceted struggles of graduate students, confronting burnout, political complexity, and societal crises like COVID-19 epidemic, racism, homophobia, transphobia, patriarchy, white supremacy, xenophobia, and ableism. The mass exodus of workers during the Great Resignation in the United States left many grappling with unemployment, debt, and existential uncertainty, feeling devalued and alienated in academic environments. The RACE Mentoring-Health and Spirituality group emerged as a pivotal initiative, providing essential support in the face of these challenges. The book highlights the critical issue of declining enrollment and completion rates in graduate programs leading to a staffing crisis in higher education. Students from marginalized communities are disproportionately impacted. In response, resilient students have formed supportive networks, showcasing their ability to adapt and thrive despite adversity. This volume of the RACE Mentoring series focuses on these students' survival strategies, self-care techniques, and insights into healing both personally and professionally. The contributors, sharing their diverse experiences, offer practical advice for navigating challenging landscapes. This work serves as a comprehensive guide for healing, growth, and finding inspiration amidst adversity, symbolizing a beacon of hope and resilience for those facing similar challenges. It is a testament to the power of community and perseverance in overcoming significant obstacles. ENDORSEMENTS: "I strongly recommend this book to all graduate students and their loved ones, as well as to higher education faculty, staff, and everyone committed to a more just world. Richard D. Williams and the other distinguished authors have cocreated a beacon of hope backed by diverse and scholarly rigor. It offers invaluable insights and practices for those facing unprecedented stress, burnout, and mental health challenges. This book is a must-read for anyone committed to personal and professional healing." — Monica L Hanson, Stanford University "Healing While Studying will be a transformative experience for readers who will feel as if they are conversing with trusted mentors – mentors who truly understand the unique challenges that minoritized graduate students face. The authors' insightful analysis, personal reflections, and strategies for healing, coping, and liberation are powerful, practical, and thought-provoking ideas that will challenge your assumptions and expand your understanding. In addition, the storytelling was captivating, and the author's ability to weave complex ideas into a coherent narrative was awe-inspiring. Whether you're just starting your graduate program or already well into your studies, this book is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to navigate academia gracefully and resiliently. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to heal while studying and thrive as a minoritized graduate student." — Cynthia A. Tyson, The Ohio State University

Download or read book The Politics of Crime Prevention written by Kevin H. Wozniak and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2023-06-13 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important understanding of the role public opinion plays in crime prevention policy "Defund the police.” This slogan became a rallying cry among Black Lives Matter protesters following the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis in May 2020. These three words evoke a fundamental question about America’s policy priorities: should the nation rely predominantly upon the branches of the criminal justice system to arrest, prosecute, and imprison offenders, or should the nation prioritize fixing structural causes of crime by investing more heavily in the infrastructure and institutions of disadvantaged communities? To put it simply, do Americans actually prefer punishment over crime prevention? The Politics of Crime Prevention examines American public opinion about crime prevention in the twenty-first century with a particular focus on how average citizens would choose to prioritize resources between the criminal justice system and community-based institutions. Kevin H. Wozniak analyzes differences of opinion across lines of race, social class, and political partisanship, and investigates whether people’s willingness to invest in communities depends upon the kind of communities that would receive money. This book moves beyond criminologists’ typical focus on public opinion about punishment that follows acts of crime to instead examine public attitudes toward crime prevention. In this brilliant and compelling study, Wozniak reveals that politicians profoundly underestimate the American public’s desire to prioritize community investment and that it is long past time to help communities thrive instead of turning to the criminal justice system to respond to every social problem.
Download or read book Talents and Distributive Justice written by Mitja Sardoč and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-09-05 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For much of its history, the notion of talent has been associated with the idea of ‘careers open to talent’. Its emancipatory promise of upward social mobility has ultimately radically transformed the distribution of advantaged social positions and has had a lasting influence on the very idea of social status itself. Besides its inextricable link with equality of educational opportunity, the notion of talent also came to be associated with some of the most pressing contemporary issues as diverse as the ‘war for talent’, brain drain, immigration policies, talent management, global meritocracy, the ‘excellence gap’, the ‘ownership’ of natural resources, ability taxation, etc. Nevertheless, while central to egalitarian conceptions of distributive justice, the notion of talent remains to a large extent absent from the voluminous literature on these issues. Unlike concepts traditionally associated with distributive justice, such as fairness, (in)equality, equality of opportunity as well as justice itself, the notion of talent has received only limited examination. This volume brings together a set of contributions discussing some of the most pressing problems and challenges arising out of a reductionist understanding of talents’ anatomy, a distorted characterisation of their overall distributive value or talents’ non-voluntaristic nature and many other issues revolving around talents, which existing conceptions of distributive justice in education leave either neglected or outrightly ignored. The chapters in this book were originally published in the journal, Educational Philosophy and Theory.

Download or read book Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders written by Omar A. Abdul-Rahman and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-19 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) represent a range of physical, mental, and behavioral disabilities caused by alcohol use during pregnancy, or prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE). FASDs are considered to be one of the leading causes of developmental disability, with an estimated 2-5% of children being born with FASD each year in the world. Despite its high prevalence, FASD is often misdiagnosed or underdiagnosed, making intervention more challenging. A multidisciplinary team of providers who understand the diagnostic requirements is crucial for an accurate FASD diagnosis. This text provides a comprehensive, state-of-the art review of this field, and serves as a valuable resource for clinicians and researchers with an interest in FASD. The book provides a detailed overview for clinicians of various backgrounds on the diagnostic process, extensive mechanistic and embryologic data, neuropsychologic aspects of the condition, prevention and treatment approaches, and the ethical, legal, and policy perspectives that impact patients and families. The chapters are organized parallel to the journey of individuals who experience alcohol-related conditions, beginning with the prenatal period addressing epidemiology of alcohol exposure, prevention and interventions, continuing through the fetal experience with a focus on embryology. Challenges of children and their families are considered next including the diagnostic process and health effects. Finally, issues related to systems of care for individuals with FASD and the broader community are addressed. The global context of FASD is presented throughout the textbook. Written by experts in the field, Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders provides a concise yet comprehensive summary of the current status of this issue that helps guide prevention efforts, the diagnostic process, school and community interventions, and global policy efforts.
