HIV/AIDS in Young Adult Novels

An Annotated Bibliography

By: Melissa Gross,Annette Y. Goldsmith,Debi Carruth

Not long after becoming public health concerns in the 1980s, HIV and AIDS were featured in a number of works of fiction, though such titles were written primarily for adult readers. Mirroring the disease's indiscriminate nature, however, the subject would soon be incorporated into novels aimed at young adults. Despite a need for accessible information on the subject, it is difficult to identify fiction that contains material about HIV/AIDS, as these books are seldom catalogued for this content, nor is this content consistently acknowledged in published reviews. In HIV/AIDS in Young Adult Novels: An Annotated Bibliography, the authors address this gap by identifying and assessing the full range of young adult novels that include HIV/AIDS content. This resource is comprised of two major parts. The first part summarizes findings from a content analysis performed on novels written for readers aged 11-19, published since 1981, and featuring at least one character with HIV/AIDS. The second part is an annotated bibliography of the more than 90 novels identified for use in the study. Each entry in the bibliography contains an annotation that summarizes the plot and how HIV/AIDS is depicted in the story, an indication of the accuracy of the HIV/AIDS content, a note on how central HIV/AIDS is to the story, and an evaluation of the literary quality of the book. This work will assist readers in collecting, choosing, evaluating, and using these works to educate readers about HIV/AIDS.

The Movement

A History of the American New Left 1959-1972

By: Irwin Unger,Debi Unger

This book provides a brief, objective survey of the New Left, defined basically as a movement of white middle-class youth mainly during the 1960s and 1970s. Exploring the intellectual and social forces that helped generate it, the authors argue that the New Left represented the advent of a new sensitivity about organized society in general that was associated with a post-war, post-depression generation unhampered—or, alternately, unsobered—by the experiences of their parents and elders. As a movement of youth it was bold and playful as well as erratic and unstable, and simply could not stick as times worsened and discouragements mounted.

The Times Were a Changin'

The Sixties Reader

By: Debi Unger,Irwin Unger

This is a must-have anthology of the milestone speeches, manifestos, court decisions, and groundbreaking journalism of the Sixties. No other period in American history has been more liberating, more confusing, more unforgettable, and had a more direct impact on the way we navigated the profound changes that swept over the country in the following three decades. From Betty Friedan to Barry Goldwater, from the formidable presence of the Kennedy brothers to the unimaginable influence of Woodstock, Pulitzer prize-winning author Irwin Unger and journalist Debi Unger present the complexities of a volatile and tumultuous decade, while explaining how and why each significant event took place and how it shifted the country's consciousness. From the antiwar movement to the moon race, from the burgeoning counterculture to the Warren and Berger courts, and from the civil rights movement to the 1968 presidential campaign, The Times Were a Changin' will tantalize and confound readers, while inspiring and enraging them as well. The Ungers provide us with a better understanding of the strategy and maneuvering of the 1960s war games--from the Bay of Pigs to the Tet Offensive. And the pieces they have chosen help us define the current of social intolerance that plagues our country to this day. Balancing the controversial issues of the times with an even hand, the Ungers give equal time to William F. Buckley and Abbie Hoffman, Barry Goldwater and Hubert Humphrey, the Black Panthers and Martin Luther King, Jr., compiling an anthology that supplies rhyme and reason to a decade that never ceases to amaze us, endless in its capacity to be explored and understood.

Literacy Classrooms That S. O. A. R.

Strategic Observation and Reflection in the Elementary Grades

By: Susan O'Hara,Robert Pritchard,Debi Pitta

For more than fifteen years the authors have been conducting research and professional development in school districts across the United States. This work has shown that the SOAR Teaching Frames for Literacy provide a unique approach to planning, implementing, and elevating instruction that drives improvement in teaching and learning. One distinguishing aspect of the SOAR work is the focus on the high-impact teaching practices that research identifies as key to student learning. A second distinguishing aspect is that the practices are presented and unpacked within the context of teaching frames. Each teaching frame is designed to help educators understand and implement the high-impact practice that drives student learning, while simultaneously enacting a set of dynamic instructional moves in support of the high-impact practice and taking the foundational planning steps needed to do this well. Detailed instructional strategies are provided as a way to help teachers understand how to implement and continuously improve these practices. A third distinguishing aspect of the work is that the teaching frames provide a common language and a set of tools to foster teacher-to-teacher and coach-to-teacher collaboration that supports professional learning and growth across schools and districts. Principals, coaches, and teachers who have participated in SOAR professional learning report that the teaching frames provide them with a lens for continued professional learning and growth"--

Social Security Law in India

By: Debi S. Saini

Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this book describes the social security regime in India. It conveys a clear working knowledge of the legal mechanics affecting health care, employment injuries and occupational diseases, incapacity to work, pensions, survivors’ benefits, unemployment benefits and services, and family benefits. The analysis covers the field of application, conditions for entitlement, calculation of benefits, financing, the institutional framework, and relevant law enforcement and controls. Allowances for retirees, employees, public sector workers, the self-employed, and the handicapped are all clearly explained, along with full details of claims, adjudication procedures, and appeals. Succinct yet eminently practical, the book will be a valuable resource for lawyers handling social security matters in India. It will be of practical utility to those both in public service and private practice called on to develop and to apply social security law and policy, and of special interest as a contribution to the comparative study of social security systems.

Palm Beach

By: Richard A. Marconi,Debi Murray,Historical Society of Palm Beach County

Palm Beach is known internationally as a winter resort where the wealthy enjoy life in a tropical paradise. More than 100 years ago, Palm Beach was far different from its well-kept beaches, estates, and fabulous Worth Avenue shopping mecca of the 21st century. When the first permanent settlers arrived, they found the area covered by thick jungle that had to be tamed before they could carve out a new life for themselves. The settlers ended up with a paradise, and when Henry Flagler decided to build a grand hotel in Palm Beach, he planted the first seed for the creation of a modern winter retreat for the rich.

Human Factors in Healthcare

A Field Guide to Continuous Improvement

By: Avi Parush,Debi Parush,Roy Ilan

Have you ever experienced the burden of an adverse event or a near-miss in healthcare and wished there was a way to mitigate it? This book walks you through a classic adverse event as a case study and shows you how. It is a practical guide to continuously improving your healthcare environment, processes, tools, and ultimate outcomes, through the discipline of human factors. Using this book, you as a healthcare professional can improve patient safety and quality of care. Adverse events are a major concern in healthcare today. As the complexity of healthcare increases-with technological advances and information overload-the field of human factors offers practical approaches to understand the situation, mitigate risk, and improve outcomes. The first part of this book presents a human factors conceptual framework, and the second part offers a systematic, pragmatic approach. Both the framework and the approach are employed to analyze and understand healthcare situations, both proactively-for constant improvement-and reactively-learning from adverse events. This book guides healthcare professionals through the process of mapping the environmental and human factors; assessing them in relation to the tasks each person performs; recognizing how gaps in the fit between human capabilities and the demands of the task in the environment have a ripple effect that increases risk; and drawing conclusions about what types of changes facilitate improvement and mitigate risk, thereby contributing to improved healthcare outcomes.
