From the Chocolate Part of Switzerland

By: Esther Groninger

Growing up during World War II as the oldest of five children and the only girl was not always easy. Esther's childhood in Switzerland is documented in 38 short stories, which reflect the cultural climate and practices of those years. Her adventures continue during subsequent travels to various countries in Europe, culminating in her crossing the Atlantic to Canada and on to the United States. It was her intention to return to Switzerland some day, but destiny held other plans. She met her husband to be three short weeks after her arrival in the U.S. Throughout the book we are given glimpses of her spiritual journey and her search for meaning in life. She now knows that only God could have engineered circumstances the way they occurred, and she is thankful for his hand of protection over her. Esther Groninger lives with her husband George in Grand Rapids, Michigan. They have two grown daughters and one granddaughter, who have chosen to trade Michigan winters with the more moderate climate of the South. Esther still loves to be outdoors whether it is tending her garden or harvesting nature's bounty at surrounding farms and preserving it for later use. During the winter she loves to knit for babies, an art she has perfected over many years. She also volunteers at RBC Ministries on a regular basis.

‘News from the Republick of Letters’: Scottish Students, Charles Mackie and the United Provinces, 1650-1750

Scottish Students, Charles Mackie and the United Provinces, 1650-1750

By: Esther Mijers

The late seventeenth century Netherlands have traditionally been viewed as the intellectual entrepot of Europe in general, and for Scotland in particular. Scottish students flocked in large numbers to the Dutch universities, bringing back ideas and books which influenced Scottish learning well into the eighteenth century. This book is the first full-length study of Scots in the United Provinces between 1650 and 1750. It analyses their numbers at the Dutch universities, the education they received and the impact this had on Scottish learning, on the eve of the Enlightenment, showing that the Scottish-Dutch relationship provided the infrastructure, which allowed Scotland to take part in a wider Republic of Letters and that its culture was increasingly characterised by it.

Constructivism in Central Europe

Painting, Typography, Photomontage

By: Esther Levinger

The book tells the story of individual artists in Central Europe who believed in art's power to change the world; they imagined a collective of human beings living happily in a free society liberated of injustice and inequality.

A Compendium of Neuropsychological Tests

Administration, Norms, and Commentary

By: Esther Strauss,Elisabeth M. S. Sherman,Otfried Spreen

For the practicing neuropsychologist or researcher, keeping up with the sheer number of newly published or updated tests is a challenge, as is evaluating the utility and psychometric properties of neuropsychological tests in a clinical context. The goal of the third edition of A Compendium of Neuropsychological Tests, a well-established neuropsychology reference text, is twofold. First, the Compendium is intended to serve as a guidebook that provides a comprehensive overview of the essential aspects of neuropsychological assessment practice. Second, it is intended as a comprehensive sourcebook of critical reviews of major neuropsychological assessment tools for the use by practicing clinicians and researchers. Written in a comprehensive, easy-to-read reference format, and based on exhaustive review of research literature in neuropsychology, neurology, psychology, and related disciplines, the book covers topics such as basic aspects of neuropsychological assessment as well as the theoretical background, norms, and the utility, reliability, and validity of neuropsychological tests. For this third edition, all chapters have been extensively revised and updated. The text has been considerably expanded to provide a comprehensive yet practical overview of the state of the field. Two new chapters have been added: "Psychometrics in Neuropsychological Assessment" and "Norms in Psychological Assessment." The first two chapters present basic psychometric concepts and principles. Chapters three and four consider practical aspects of the history-taking interview and the assessment process itself. Chapter five provides guidelines on report-writing and chapters six through sixteen consist of detailed, critical reviews of neuropsychological tests, and address the topics of intelligence, achievement, executive function, attention, memory, language, visual perception, somatosensory olfactory function, mood/personality, and response bias. A unique feature is the inclusion of tables that summarize salient features of tests within each domain so that readers can easily compare measures. Additional tables within each test review summarize important features of each test, highlight aspects of each normative dataset, and provide an overview of psychometric properties. Of interest to neuropsychologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, and educational and clinical psychologists working with adults as well as pediatric populations, this volume will aid practitioners in selecting appropriate testing measures for their patients, and will provide them with the knowledge needed to make empirically supported interpretations of test results.

A Compendium of Neuropsychological Tests

Administration, Norms, and Commentary

By: Otfried Spreen,Esther Strauss

In a survey of neuropsychologists published in The Clinical Neuropsychologist, the first edition of the Compendium was named as one of the eleven essential books in their field. This second edition has been thoroughly updated to cover new developments in neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and psychological assessment. It includes new chapters on test selection, report writing and informing the client, executive functions, occupational interest and aptitude, and the assessment of functional complaints. In addition to updating research findings about the tests covered in the first edition, the book now contains almost twice as many tests.

Esther's Poems

By: Esther Franklin

Poems that were written through the years for relatives and friends. The author has lived a very full life throughout her 94 years so she has the opportunity to write not only for relatives but also for friends. Researching and writing about Thomas Jefferson, she also met interesting individuals. Hopefully, this book will reflect the expansive nature of her life.
