Download or read book Agnes Keith and Other Colonial Woman Writers in Borneo written by Mohamad Rashidi Pakri, Simon Peter Hull, Elizabeth Joanny Openg and published by Penerbit USM. This book was released on 2021-12-09 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking its cue from feminist-postcolonial studies of women’s writing in the colonial era, this book testifies to the great diversity of such writing. However, it uniquely does this by showing the existence of a richly varied and heterogeneous range of texts not only between man writers and woman writers, but, equally, amongst the women themselves. These are women, moreover, who are writing within the same relatively small region of South East Asia. As Agnes Keith, whose writing forms the focal point of this book, credibly surmises, Borneo remained, even towards the end of the colonial period, a dark and mysterious land to people in the West, largely populated, as they imagined, by tribes of headhunters. It was, therefore, to the lack of knowledge and curiosity of ordinary middle-class people in the West that Keith’s writing, and that of the other woman writers featured in this book, so engagingly responds.

This book was released on with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Counselling intervention is a strategy and technique introduced by the counsellors to help the clients to deal with various issues and to move toward the goal. Recently, emotional and feeling issues are often faced by clients regardless of age, status, culture, or religion. Various strategies and techniques have been implemented in counselling sessions to help improve the clients' orientation to the environment and to help them move into action. However, there is a new interest in the professional counselling community requiring counsellors to provide evidence of the effectiveness of interventions to clients, families, and administrators. Information on the effectiveness of the intervention allows the clients, families, and administrators to continue treatment with confidence and trust in the treatment the clients receives from the counsellors. For this purpose, the single-subject research design (SSRD) approach is widely used in evidence-based practice in counselling and conducting research. SSRD has been described as any research involving one subject or one group that is treated as a single entity. The essence of single-subject design is using repeated measurements to understand an individual's variability to determine what are the effects of the treatment. The SSRD approach can assist counsellors in preparing evidence-based practice and scientifically conducted reports on the effectiveness of interventions and determining which treatment procedures result in the most effective and efficient emotional change. This book discusses various cases of emotional issues and techniques carried out by counsellors in counselling sessions. Details on the implementation of counselling strategies and techniques for each case are discussed in each chapter of this book. Therefore, this book is suitable for reference by undergraduate and postgraduate students in counselling, psychology, nursing, social work, pharmacy, and other areas in the helping professions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hong Kong Internment, 1942-1945: Life in the Japanese Civilian Camp at Stanley tells the story of the more than three thousand non-Chinese civilians: British, American, Dutch and others, who were trapped in the British colony and interned behind barbed wire in Stanley Internment Camp from 1942 to 1945. From 1970 to 1972, while researching for his MA thesis, the author interviewed twenty-three former Stanley internees. During these meetings, the internees talked about their lives in the Stanley Camp during the Japanese occupation. Long regarded as an invaluable reference and frequently consulted as a primary source on Stanley since its completion in 1973, the study is now republished with a new introduction and fresh discussions that recognize later work and information released since the original thesis was written. Additional illustrations, including a new map and photographs, as well as an up-to-date bibliography, have also been included in the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1984, this book touches the private lives and professional responsibilities of men and women, as it illustrates the comic as well as serious effects of the ‘incorporation’ of wives into some important State and commercial institutions. Beyond their domestic functions, wives have, in particular ways, been valuable props to many a husband’s career and many an employer’s and the nation’s interests. For example, the Army, civil administrations at home and overseas, and the police have, without questioning, depended on the services of wives – given silently, willingly or unwillingly. Yet the nature of the relationship of these ‘incorporated’ wives to the objectives of such institutions has, until recently, been largely unregistered in practice, unrecorded in social and historical accounts and unstudied by analysts. This book provides a wealth of ethnographic material. Personal anecdotes and scholarly interpretations throw light on the conceptual systems underlying the workings and cultures of institutions, as well as the construction of identities. Many will find their experiences echoed here. The issues raised are important not only for individual men and women, for whom such ‘incorporation’ may provide advantages as well as constraints, but because of the bearing they have on our understanding of marriage, especially since we cannot be sure this will continue in its present mode or as the dominant form of conjugal union. As more married women assume greater responsibilities at work, will their husbands give the same support to their wives and those who employ them as they themselves received? Further, it seems likely that wives may become less willing than in the past to render their services unacknowledged – indeed this trend is already apparent. We may ask, then, ‘who will fill the gaps?’, and ‘how will institutions change?’. The historical and contemporary studies here provide some base data and some theoretical approaches necessary for any who may wish to consider what will become increasingly acute practical questions.
