Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political Women examines women's roles in American state and local politics. Three major trends in these areas are discussed, which suggest that a 'quiet revolution' is taking place in politics at state and local levels. The authors develop four provocative themes relating to the role of women in politics, their status in relation to political parties, the differences in men's and women's politics, and the significance of the female electorate. Political Women constitutes an important addition to the series, and will be of interest to those studying the place of women in modern society, political scientists, and students of American government and politics.

Download or read book Too Close to Home written by Andrew R. Morrison and published by IDB. This book was released on 1999 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of essays by international authorities ranging from psychologists and doctors to economists and communication experts. Several authors analyze the economic and health costs imposed by domestic violence, documenting that domestic violence is both a serious public health issue and a severe impediment to economic development. Others examine promising approaches that have been used to combat domestic violence, including community treatment and prevention networks, telephone hotlines, judicial and police reform, anti-violence curricula in primary and secondary schools, street theatre, and creative use of the mass media. The book is based on the 1997 IDB conference, Domestic Violence in Latin America and the Caribbean: Costs, Programs and Policies.
Download or read book Being SAGE written by SAGE Publishing and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2021-05-25 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over drinks with her favorite professor and her future husband, a 25-year-old Sara Miller founded one of the most influential academic publishing houses on the planet. This career-spanning autobiography follows Sara Miller McCune and the company that emerged from that cocktail hour, SAGE Publishing. Read along as over 55 years SAGE grows from publishing a single journal promoted by direct mail (from a list provided by Daniel Patrick Moynihan) into a globe-spanning and proudly independent company with a core belief that engaged scholarship lies at the heart of any healthy society. While the book is an excellent source for those interested in publishing, education (especially the rise of social science in the post-war academy), and entrepreneurship, perhaps its most powerful impact is as an inspiring tale for young women anxious to start their own business and chart an independent course in life.

Marilyn Gittell was a renowned scholar and social activist. A graduate of Brooklyn College (BA) and New York University (PhD), she held her first faculty appointment at Queens College (1960–1973) before serving as Associate Provost (1973–1978) at Brooklyn College.

She helped launch and was the founding editor of Urban Affairs Quarterly, the leading academic journal in the field of urban research. Activist Scholar highlights Professor Gittell’s writings on community organizations, citizen participation, urban politics, the politics of education, and gender. She specialized in applied and comparative research on local, regional, national, and international policies and politics, and placed a high priority on training researchers and scholars. Marilyn Gittell was a mentor to hundreds of students in the City University of New York system, and her legacy of activism continues as her students, now on the faculties of universities across the nation, engage in important work globally.
Download or read book Women The Misunderstood Majority written by M. Gay Hubbard and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2003-05-12 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fact: Women are the major consumers of counseling services today. Fact: The average counselor (male or female, secular or pastoral) has little or no specific training in the psychology of women or in understanding women's issues. Result: A widespread therapy gap that reduces respect, hinders healing, and breeds frustration. M. Gay Hubbard writes to close that disturbing gap by exposing common misbeliefs and faulty assumptions about women that can block understanding and perpetuate pain. Her aim in this provocative yet balanced book is to: ¥ Increase women's self-understanding and make them smarter consumers of counseling services. ¥ Challenge the myths of womanhood--old and new--that pervade our culture and can skew the thinking of counselor and client alike. ¥ Expose faulty assumptions about women and therapy that may sabotage a counselor's best efforts--and even increase the risk of sexual abuse. ¥ Examine the politics of gender research--and show why data about sex differences is often manipulated and misinterpreted to further particular agendas. ¥ Encourage women and their counselors to look at the business of healing with fresh hope, deeper understanding, and an abiding sense of compassion. Impeccably researched, highly readable, challenging but never strident, 'Women: The Misunderstood Majority' is designed to open eyes and heal hearts, and to open the way for more women to lead productive and fulfilling lives.
