During the last half century, Southeast Asia has undergone tremendous social, political, and economic change. This volume chronicles the extensive demographic transformations that have accompanied those changes, documenting how public health and other policy interventions contributed to rapid population growth and how new patterns of settlement and migration ensued. More recently, changing opportunities for young adults have revolutionized marriage and fertility choices and raised concerns about population aging.
The authors consider the recent demographic histories of the region alongside government policies intended to manage population growth rates; improve access to education, employment, and health services; influence levels of internal and international migration; and address environmental concerns. This groundbreaking study of postcolonial Southeast Asia addresses many of the contemporary demographic challenges facing the citizens and governments of the increasingly mobile and globalized region of Southeast Asia.

The basis for the Meryl Streep film A Cry in the Dark: The dramatic true story of a mother's worst nightmare and the murder trial that shocked Australia.
On a camping trip at Ayer's Rock, the Chamberlain family's infant daughter disappeared in the middle of the night. Her distraught mother, Lindy, claimed she saw a dingo carry her off into the Australian outback. Two years later, their tragedy worsened when, without a murder weapon, a body, or even a motive, a jury convicted Lindy Chamberlain of killing her own daughter. The public cheered.
John Bryson, a trial lawyer and award-winning journalist, deconstructs the factors that led to a seemingly reasonless incarceration and the public attitude that demanded it. With this book, he began to sway popular opinion in the Chamberlains' favor by discussing the failures on the part of the police, forensics team, and press.
Winner of the CWA Gold Dagger award and the inspiration for the film A Cry in the Dark starring Meryl Streep, Evil Angels presents an impartial analysis of the most notorious miscarriage of justice in Australian history. It serves as a reminder of the dangers of blindly searching for a conviction, the importance of scientific accuracy, the volatility of the media, and the ease with which a nation can fall prey to bigoted thinking. Written with literary finesse, this is one of the twentieth century's most important--and thoughtful--works of true crime.
"Out of the complex story of his country's most famous murder trial, Australian lawyer, journalist and novelist John Bryson has fashioned a remarkable book, one that resonates with moral ambiguities and wrenching emotions. . . . Bryson's handling of the complicated testimony about physical evidence is a model of clarity and coherence. . . . Far more important, however, is his quietly devastating portrait of the ugly undercurrent of ignorance and prejudice that ran against Lindy Chamberlain almost from the beginning." --Newsday
"One of the most interesting and disturbing books I've ever read about the social and emotional ramifications of a criminal trial . . . Bryson] turns the worst nightmare of false justice into an affirmation of honest grit, without losing sight of how easily Lindy Chamberlain could still be in jail. . . . Terrific." --Erika Munk, The Village Voice
"Five hundred and fifty pages of cinematic excitement." --Maeve Binchy
"Non-stop excitement . . . Bryson piles shock upon shock as he spirits readers all over the map: To courtrooms in Darwin and Alice Springs; to the homes of aboriginal trackers; to forensic laboratories in Australia, England and the United States; even to an Adelaide zoo, for bizarre experiments in the likely behavior of dingoes. . . . Books don't get more interesting than this one." --The Virginian-Pilot
"An impressive literary document." --The Times (London)
"Hypnotic." --The Mail on Sunday
"Stunning and disturbing." --The Australian
"A fine work of literature. The dramatic intensity never wavers." --The Age (Melbourne)
"A story with the tragic force of a Shakespearian drama." --Monthly Review
"A work of art." --Australian Book Review

Описание: Up Is Not the Only Way Rethinking Career Mobility Move up or move out. When those two options appear to be the only ones, dissatisfaction grows and engagement suffers. In decades of studying careers around the globe, Beverly Kaye, Lindy Williams, and Lynn Cowart have found that, in fact, there are more options. And rethinking career mobility can lead you to them Career mobility isn't just about moving to a new city or country. It's about stretching, learning, and transforming. Whether you're working on your own career or you're a manager, a mentor, or a coach helping others, Up Is Not the Only Way offers you six ways to build successful mobile careers. Keep the same job but discover multiple ways to learn and grow while staying in the same place. If a new job in the same company is in the cards, experiment and test possibilities. Make a lateral move as a powerful way to develop new skills. If stepping back is the right answer, discover how it can be done without derailing a career. Pursue a promotion when it's the right time and role. And if it's time to step out the door, the authors suggest how to make an elegant exit that maybe leaves open the possibility of a return one day. The book includes important questions to consider--about interests, skills, values, and timing--when choosing to enrich or make a change. For each option, Up Is Not the Only Way explores how managers, coaches, and employees can have rich career conversations and partner to determine the best courses of action. Rather than narrowing aspirations to one dream job or role, Kaye, Williams, and Cowart encourage readers to take a "kaleidoscope" view--to be open to ever-shifting patterns of options, opportunities, and possibilities--to build a rewarding career.

Her life is disrupted by bullies at high school, and when she goes to the university to train to be a teacher, she doesn't enjoy university and remembers what her teacher had to go through when she was bullied. Her husband gets to know about her bullied experience, and he seems to dwell on the past when he mentions to Mildred that when she only associates with people of a different culture, its because she was bullied and has not recovered from that.

The future brings unexpected adventures and surprises, and when Mildred plays her flute, the grace in the music brings her and her husband closer.
