Описание: With a near 50% divorce rate in the United States, every parent who reads this book is either going through a divorce, has been divorced, is married to or living with someone who is divorced, or will go through one or more of his/her children`s divorces. Unlike books designed to enlighten parents about children`s reactions to divorce, A Parents` Guide to Child Custody is written for parents themselves. The book provides parents with an overview of the context within which custody is decided by courts today, including a chapter-by-chapter explanation of the factors that are considered by the court in rendering a custody decision. Part I opens the book with three brief case histories in which the reader is asked to put herself/himself in the place of the court by imaging what custody decisions they would make if they were the judge. This chapter is followed by an orientation to the three major factors that all courts consider in coming to a custody decision. Each subsequent chapter addresses the specific factors that are weighed by the court in its deliberations. Part II provides a more in-depth view of such topics as the factors considered by judges in coming to a custody decision, what to expect when undergoing a child custody evaluation, the use and pitfalls of psychological tests, the assessment of parental capacity, and strategies for countering false allegations. Part III reviews eight myths (i.e. commonly held misconceptions) about what is best for children, as well as guidelines for discussing custody with your children. Part IV provides insight into how best to deal with parental alienation, domestic violence, and obstruction of one parent`s access by the other parent after the court has ruled on custody. Part V concludes with eight sure-fire ways to lose custody as well as the custody evaluator`s recommendations in each of the three hypothetical cases presented in Part I. It is the author`s sincere hope that this book will help parents become better advocates for themselves and for their children.
An insightful and engagingly narrated exploratory work on a pioneer of modern architecture from Switzerland
The Queen Alexandra Sanatorium in Davos is a masterpiece of early modernist architecture by the Swiss architects Pfleghard & Haefeli (Schatzalp, Davos) and the renowned civil engineer and bridge builder Robert Maillart.
A new form of architecture was forged here, full of contradictions and compromises and the result of intense collaboration between engineer, architect, and client. It stands at the threshold of modernism, which is largely characterized by the use of reinforced concrete.
Apart from certain early mentions in architectural history, very little has been written about this Swiss precursor of modernist architecture. Drawing on numerous archival records, Daniel Korwan now provides the first detailed chronology of this 1909 building, thus expanding the record on the historical reception of modernism.
First publication on a Swiss building that prefigured modern architecture

Автор: Gilman Ernest B. Название: Yiddish Poetry and the Tuberculosis Sanatorium ISBN: 0815633793 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780815633792 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 22170.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Part literary history and part medical sociology, Gilman’s book chronicles the careers of three major immigrant Yiddish poets of the twentieth century - Solomon Bloomgarten (Yehoash), Sholem Shtern, and H. Leivick - all of whom lived through, and wrote movingly of, their experience as patients in a tuberculosis sanatorium. Gilman addresses both the formative influence of the sanatorium on the writers’ work and the culture of an institution in which, before the days of antibiotics, writing was encouraged as a form of therapy. He argues that each writer produced a significant body of work during his recovery, itself an experience that profoundly influenced the course of his subsequent literary career. Seeking to recover the “imaginary” of the sanatorium as a scene of writing by doctors and patients, Gilman explores the historical connectionbetween tuberculosis treatment and the written word. Through a close analysis of Yiddish poems, and translations of these writers, Gilman sheds light on how essential writing and literature were to the sanatorium experience. All three poets wrote under the shadow of death. Their works are distinctive, but their most urgent concerns are shared: strangers in a strange land, suffering, displacement, acculturation, and, inevitably, what it means to be a Jew.
