Reflections on Leisure, Play, and Recreation

By: David L. Jewell

In this rich and unique reference, David L. Jewell compiles the first anthology of reflections on leisure, play, and recreation. Disproportionately high budget cuts in parks and recreation services demonstrate too clearly society's view of leisure activities as frivolous and expendable. By selecting these voices of reason and making them available in a single volume, Jewell hopes to emphasize the "frailties of a capitalistic society's demeaning perception" of anything other than work. In this collection of wise words, he provides ammunition for those charged with selling leisure, play and recreation to the public and to political leaders.

COMMON TERMINOLOGY, ABBREVIATIONS AND SYMBOLS FOR THERAPEUTIC RECREATION AND OTHER ACTIVITY THERAPIES

A Glossary and Workbook

By: David L. Jewell

This text will be helpful to students in becoming clinically conversant prior to the fieldwork, practicum, or internship experience across the spectrum of clinical areas, including mental retardation/developmental disabilities, mental health services, and physical medicine/rehabilitation services. The text will also be useful as an instructional aid to agency in-service personnel in their efforts to assist new hires in becoming conversant in the language of the work setting, regardless of their professional affiliations or roles within the treatment setting. It consists of terms, abbreviations, and symbols that have been identified by numerous clinical services administrators and practitioners and which will help students not only to recognize the terms in their written form but also to provide for their correct pronunciation. The worksheets are designed to assist college faculty and in-service training personnel in their instructional missions. This requires that the students define terms and abbreviations as well as demonstrate their ability to apply the contents of the text in a clinical practice context. The text should be a useful resource to the emerging professionals in Therapeutic Recreation and the other activity therapies as they progress through the course of their careers as caregivers.

Problem-Solving Courts and the Criminal Justice System

By: David DeMatteo,Kirk Heilbrun,Alice Thornewill,Shelby Arnold

Problem-solving courts provide judicially supervised treatment for behavioral health needs commonly found among criminal offenders, including substance abuse and mental health disorders, and they treat a variety of offender populations. These courts employ a team-based approach consisting of a judge, defense attorney, prosecutor, and treatment providers, representing a significant paradigm shift in how the justice system treats offenders with special needs. Despite the proliferation of problem-solving courts, there remains some uncertainty about how they function, how effective they are, and the most promising ways to implement problem-solving justice. Problem-Solving Courts and the Criminal Justice System provides a comprehensive foundation of knowledge related to problem-solving courts and the role they play in the United States criminal justice system. The book begins with an overview that explores precipitating factors in these courts' development, relevant political influence, and their history, purposes, benefits, and drawbacks, followed by a detailed discussion of specific types of problem solving courts, including drug courts, mental health courts, and veterans courts, among many others. Next a review of the legal and ethical considerations of alternative methods to standard prosecution is complemented by an examination of the methodological challenges faced by researchers when attempting to study the effectiveness of problem-solving courts. The book concludes with a discussion of future directions in terms of research, practice, and policy relating to these courts in the United States. Problem-Solving Courts and the Criminal Justice System is appropriate for professionals, researchers, and students in the fields of mental health, criminal justice, and law.

The Badgers of Wytham Woods

A Model for Behaviour, Ecology, and Evolution

By: David Macdonald,Chris Newman

The badgers of Wytham Woods (Oxford, UK) have been studied continuously and intensively by David Macdonald for almost 50 years (25 of them with his former student and co-author Chris Newman), generating a wealth of data pertaining to every facet of their ecology and evolution. Through a mix of accessible, highly readable prose and cutting-edge science, the authors weave a riveting scientific story of the lives of these intriguing creatures, highlighting the insights offered to science more broadly through badgers as a model system. They provide a paradigm - from population down to molecule - for a deeper understanding of mammalian behaviour, ecology, epidemiology, evolutionary biology, and conservation. The real value of this long-term study is particularly apparent with current and globally relevant challenges such as climate change, disease epidemics, and senescence. This unique dataset enables us to examine these issues in a context that only a half-century experiment can reveal. The Badgers of Wytham Woods will appeal to a broad audience of professional academics (especially carnivore and mammalian biologists), researchers and students at all levels, governmental and non-governmental wildlife bodies, and to the natural historian fascinated by wild animals and the remarkable processes of nature they exemplify.

THE WOOLVERTON FAMILY: 1693 – 1850 and Beyond, Volume II

By: David A. Macdonald,Nancy N. McAdams

Charles Woolverton was in Burlington County, New Jersey, by 1693, and appears in records there and in Hunterdon County until 1727. David Macdonald and Nancy McAdams have traced Charles' descendants to the seventh generation, by which time they had spread out to many parts of the country ... This is a beautifully crafted genealogy. The format is easy to follow, and the documentation is impressive. The compilers have carefully explained their handling of problem areas, including the need to refute longstanding family lore about the immigrant ... This is an exemplary work, which descendants will certainly value and other genealogists would be well advised to study. -- Excerpts from a review published in the April 2003 issue of The New York Genealogical and Biographical Record and reprinted with permission of the author, Harry Macy, Jr. and The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society.

Weathervanes of New England

By: Glenn A. Knoblock,David W. Wemmer

Focusing on examples that can still be seen in public, this comprehensive study of the development of the weathervane describes changes in form and function from colonial times to the present, and also documents the histories of weathervane makers throughout New England.
