Описание:

Tragedy. TRIUMPH. Adversity. OVERCOMING. Darkness. LIGHT. Defeat. VICTORY. These are the words that describe and epitomize a group of brave and fearless women whose stories comprise this highly inspirational and powerful book. Fourteen women based out of the city of Reno, Nevada, who experienced multiple challenges, obstacles, and hardships throughout their lives, but chose to do something about it--they chose to RISE.

Reno Rising is not just a book. It is a movement, a way of life. Real women who made the decision to believe in themselves, grab their inner power back and stand up for what they were truly about. These stories are written by every woman for every woman. Reno Rising is the blueprint for rebuilding new paths, adventures, callings, and mindsets.

Fourteen courageous women invite you to become part of their stories, to rise above your own circumstances. Reno Rising is more than a compilation--it is life. Be part of the evolution. Come rise with us.

Описание: This book features eleven first-person stories of men from diverse class and racial backgrounds who have made a long-term commitment to end their physical and emotional abuse and controlling behaviours. These men speak frankly about the abuse they inflicted on their families, what it took to get them to face themselves, and how they feel about the damage they have caused. All participated in violence intervention programs, some for as long as ten years. To put a face on violence and to encourage activism for reform, most of the eleven have allowed their photos and real names to be used in the book. Surrounding this material are chapters that provide context about the disputes among researchers about whether batterer intervention programs work (only a small number of batterers renounce their abuse) and chapters that address the reactions of partners to these stories. ""When the Man You Love is Abusive"" is designed to caution women not to be manipulated by accounts of change and to outline the stages men need to pass through in the long process of becoming accountable. ""The Last Word: Voices of Survivors"" ends the book with a focus group discussion in which former abuse victims and advocates respond candidly to the men's stories.

Описание: The death penalty has inspired controversy for centuries. Raising questions regarding capital punishment rather than answering them, Questioning Capital Punishment offers the footing needed to allow for more informed consideration and analysis of these controversies. Acker edits judicial decisions that have addressed constitutional challenges to capital punishment and its administration in the United States and uses complementary materials to offer historical, empirical, and normative perspectives about death penalty policies and practices. This book is ideal for upper-level undergraduate and graduate classes in criminal justice.

Описание: Volume 246 in The Civilization of the American Indian Series "Little has been written on the tribal nations of the Plateau, much less on women's lives and experiences. Ackerman's book is a unique contribution because it makes a forceful case for taking the egalitarian complexion of Plateau tribes seriously."-Patricia C. Albers, author of Exhibitions, Powwows, and Feasts: Ceremonial Persistence under Change In the past, many Native American cultures have treated women and men as equals. In A Necessary Balance, Lillian A. Ackerman examines the balance of power and responsibility between men and women within each of the eleven Plateau Indian tribes who live today on the Colville Indian Reservation in north-central Washington State. Ackerman analyzes tribal cultures over three historical periods lasting more than a century--the traditional past, the farming phase when Indians were forced onto the reservation, and the twentieth-century industrial present. Ackerman examines gender equality in terms of power, authority, and autonomy in four social spheres: economic, domestic, political, and religious. Although early explorers and anthropologists noted isolated instances of gender equality among Plateau Indians, A Necessary Balance is the first book-length examination of a culture that has practiced such equality from its early days of hunting and gathering to the present day. Ackerman's findings also relate to an examination of European and American cultures, calling into question the current assumption that gender equality ceases to be possible with the advent of industrialization. Lillian A. Ackerman Adjunct Faculty] Washington State University, Pullman, is an ethnographer specializing in the Plateau Culture Area. She is the editor of A Song to the Creator: Traditional Arts of Native American Womenof the Plateau and co-editor with Laura Klein of Women and Power in Native North America, both published by the University of Oklahoma Press.
