Lost Youth in the Global City

Class, Culture, and the Urban Imaginary

By: Jo-Anne Dillabough,Jacqueline Kennelly

What does it mean to be young, to be economically disadvantaged, and to be subject to constant surveillance both from the formal agencies of the state and from the informal challenge of competing youth groups? What is life like for young people living on the fringe of global cities in late modernity, no longer at the center of city life, but pushed instead to new and insecure margins of the urban inner city? How are changing patterns of migration and work, along with shifting gender roles and expectations, impacting marginalized youth in the radically transformed urban city of the twenty-first century? In Lost Youth in the Global City, Jo-Anne Dillabough and Jacqueline Kennelly focus on young people who live at the margins of urban centers, the "edges" where low-income, immigrant, and other disenfranchised youth are increasingly finding and defining themselves. Taking the imperative of multi-sited ethnography and urban youth cultures as a starting point, this rich and layered book offers a detailed exploration of the ways in which these groups of young people, marked by economic disadvantage and ethnic and religious diversity, have sought to navigate a new urban terrain and, in so doing, have come to see themselves in new ways. By giving these young people shape and form – both looking across their experiences in different cities and attending to their particularities – Lost Youth in the Global City sets a productive and generative agenda for the field of critical youth studies.

Foundations of Low Vision

Clinical and Functional Perspectives

By: Anne Lesley Corn,Jane N. Erin

Foundations of Low Vision: Clinical and Functional Perspectives, the ground-breaking text that highlighted the importance of focusing on the functional as well as the clinical implications of low vision, has been completely updated and expanded in this second edition. The revised edition goes even further in its presentation of how best to assess and support both children and adults with low vision and plan programs and services that optimize their functional vision and ability to lead productive and satisfying lives, based on individuals' actual abilities. Part 1, Personal and Professional Perspectives, provides the foundations of this approach, with chapters focused on the anatomy of the eye, medical causes of visual impairment, optics and low vision devices, and clinical low vision services, as well as psychological and social implications of low vision and the history of the field. Part 2 focuses on children and youths, providing detailed treatment of functional vision assessment, instruction, use of low vision devices, orientation and mobility, and assistive technology. Part 3 presents rehabilitation and employment issues for working-age adults and special considerations for older adults.

Children of God

By: Anne E. Sonnack-Garcia

When the world starts to experience shared visions and dreams from God signaling a change looming in the future, Angel is called in to assist. Once again, the hero of the previous book, Angel, is there to ready the followers of the Light to stand strong in their faith against the Unbelievers. With Evil on the prowl again searching for new recruits in his evil plan to control the world, Angel must be there to offer guidance and comfort to those in need.

Adam Munson has spent the past few years in the Middle-East fighting against Al Qaeda. Mandy, his ex-girlfriend has chosen a career as a nurse. Pam, still searches for meaning in her life since giving up her baby for adoption. Russ, the bullying quarterback is finally having his dream of playing football come true. These familiar characters are joined by new ones as the battle of Good versus Evil starts to approach. Author Bio: Anne E. Sonnack-Garcia has been an elementary school teacher for 18 years.
