Biography Of A Black Christian Family

By: Doris D. Jackson

This is a story about the life and times of Doris Dockery Jackson. The book was written when I were 88 years of age. There were some good times, some bad times, happy times, times of love and some sad times. There was five generation living in my family when I wrote the book. The history of my family is cover from the 1600 to the present day. Let me start by telling you who I am. My name is Doris D. Jackson; I am the child of Charlie Dockery and Nannie Medley Dockery. I am the four child of fifteen [15] children. I was born August 9, 1924, the second Sunday morning at 4:00 am, in Montgomery County, Mt Gilead, NC. So, this is a biography of a black Christian family living in the south. It is actually more than a book; it’s a message and a guide of my eighty eight years here on earth. We are Christian people and God has been good to us. So many people have urged me for a longtime to write my saying down on paper, now that I have the time and a good memory here is my story. My husband James told me, if he could turn back the hand of time to when I heard him say, that I could be his shinning princes, he would slay all the dragons and builds a caste on the hill so all the world could see. I thank God for him and for giving me the wisdom and knowledge to write this book, to God be the glory! Amen. Doris D. Jackson....... Author

Judging Credentials

Nonlawyer Judges and the Politics of Professionalism

By: Doris Marie Provine

Must judges be trained as lawyers in order to be effective in office, or can nonlawyers serve equally well? This question has long provoked controversy among lawyers, judges, legislators, and the public. In her empirical study of the place of the nonlawyer judge in the American legal system, Doris Marie Provine concludes that, despite the opposition of the legal profession to nonlawyer judges, they are as competent as lawyers in carrying out judicial duties in courts of limited jurisdiction. Provine presents a persuasive argument that the case against nonlawyer judges has been weighted in favor of the professional interests of lawyers, not public concerns. Her examination reveals as much about the presuppositions of legal professionals as it does about the competency of nonlawyer judges to old judicial office. To substantiate her claims, Provine has conducted the most comprehensive survey of nonlawyer and lawyer judges yet undertaken, augmenting this material with court observations and extensive interviews of judges. She integrates the results of this survey into the historical context of the lay versus lawyer judge debate, showing how the legally trained judge came to predominate in the American judicial system and analyzing in detail the campaign both in and out of the courts to make legal training a prerequisite for being a judge. Ultimately, Provine suggests, Americans are too committed to the significance of credentials and to the legal profession's vision of the judicial process to respond very favorably to nonlawyer judges, however well they might perform. Judging Credentials will force lawyers, judges, scholars, and the public to reconsider the role nonlawyer judges play in the American judicial system. Provine's provocative views and exhaustive research adds new dimensions to our understanding of the ethics of professionalism and its consequences.

Occupational Science for Occupational Therapy

By: Doris Pierce

Occupational Science for Occupational Therapyarticulates how occupational science research produces unique insights into occupation and increases the effectiveness of occupational therapy interventions. This text illustrates the four key types of knowledge now being researched in occupational science: descriptive, relational, predictive, and prescriptive. This text also offers a comprehensive review of occupational science’s history of emergence from the needs and interests of occupational therapy, conflicting origins and intents, and ongoing development as a discipline within academia. In Occupational Science for Occupational Therapy, Dr. Doris Pierce and an outstanding group of occupational scientists explain how their discoveries build the science and support practice. A rich variety of methods and perspectives mark the work of these career scientists as they respond to the knowledge base needs of occupational therapy. This fully evidence-based text also brings the research experience alive for occupational therapy students, describing the passions, challenges, and choices that are the reality of research as an occupation. All research chapters discuss how findings build both science and practice, including learning supports in which students can try out research activities, explore assessment, or develop interventions. Most importantly, Occupational Science for Occupational Therapyprovides new and experienced practitioners a thorough exploration of the latest research in occupation-based practice. Occupational Science for Occupational Therapy synthesizes key works by occupational scientists, including a foreword by Dr. Elizabeth Yerxa, founder of the science. Occupational therapy and occupational science students, practitioners, and faculty will especially appreciate this book’s comprehensive coverage of work by current leaders of research on occupation-based practice.
