Автор: Russell Amy Catherine Название: A Hands-On Manual for Social Work Research: How to Stop Worrying and Start Loving Research ISBN: 0190615648 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780190615642 Издательство: Oxford Academ Рейтинг: Цена: 121080.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Amy Russell has designed the ultimate not-another-research-textbook textbook: a hands-on approach to teaching research that overcomes the resistance of the most apprehensive student. Included in this book and its supplemental materials are everything that both instructors and students need for a class built around the experience of conducting an entire practice-based research project. Students use actual data collected from their field experience to help them connect the importance of research to their own practice interests. Russell frames her approach to research and evaluation, not as an abstract exercise in accountability, but instead as a tool to empower social service agencies. Rather than weighing students down with every possible test and procedure, this book walks readers through each discrete step of the research process and presents only the information they need to know when they need to know it! The book's casual tone and playful attitude allays students' anxieties and helps them not only understand the purpose of research but actually develop their own passion for the practice.
Автор: Russell Gareth Название: Young and Damned and Fair: The Life of Catherine Howard, Fifth Wife of King Henry VIII ISBN: 1501108646 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781501108648 Издательство: Simon & Schuster Цена: 15330.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Written with an exciting combination of narrative flair and historical authority, this biography of Henry VIII's fifth wife, Catherine Howard, is "a stunning achievement" (The Sunday Times, London), and "a masterly work of Tudor history that is engrossing, sympathetic, suspenseful, and illuminating" (Charlotte Gordon, winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for Biography). On the morning of July 28, 1540, a teenager named Catherine Howard began her reign as queen of an England simmering with rebellion and terrifying uncertainty. Sixteen months later, she would follow her cousin Anne Boleyn to the scaffold, having been convicted of adultery and high treason. The broad outlines of Catherine's career might be familiar, but her story up until now has been incomplete. Unlike previous biographies, which portray her as a naпve victim of an ambitious family, Gareth Russell's "excellent account puts the oft-ignored Catherine in her proper historical context" (Daily Mail, London) and sheds new light on her rise and downfall by showing her in her context, a milieu that includes the aristocrats and, most critically, the servants who surrounded her and who, in the end, conspired against her. By illuminating Catherine's entwined upstairs/downstairs world as well as societal tensions beyond the palace walls, Russell offers a fascinating portrayal of court life in the sixteenth century and a fresh analysis of the forces beyond Catherine's control that led to her execution. Including a forgotten text of Catherine's confession in her own words, color illustrations, family tree, map, and extensive notes, Young and Damned and Fair is "a gripping account of a young woman's future destroyed by forces beyond her control...an important and timely book" (Amanda Foreman, author of Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire and A World on Fire). This account changes our understanding of one of history's most famous women while telling the compelling and very human story of complex individuals attempting to survive in a dangerous age.
