Therapeutic Recreation Leadership and Programming

By: Robin Kunstler,Frances Stavola Daly

Therapeutic Recreation Leadership and Programming will help students learn the essential aspects of professional practice while developing a leadership mind-set. The book focuses on the day-to-day responsibilities of the therapeutic recreation specialist (TRS) while integrating ethical considerations into each aspect of the job. Readers will learn how to perform the daily work of a TRS while maintaining the highest ethical standards of the profession. The book details · the principles, theories, and codes of ethics that will form the foundation of specialists’ understanding of the field and set the stage for practice; · the knowledge, skills, and leadership principles that TRSs will need in order to help their clients accomplish therapeutic outcomes; · strategies that will guide TRSs in planning a wide range of programs and services, including information on frequently encountered health problems, major program areas, facilitation strategies, and client and program evaluation; and · methods for program organization and delivery that will prepare specialists to offer a regular schedule of therapeutic recreation programs that meet the needs of all of their clients, whether in group or individual settings. The book will arm students with the information and tools they need in order to succeed as therapeutic recreation specialists. It familiarizes students with their future clients by describing the health concerns most often encountered in therapeutic settings. Case studies for the most common concerns provide students with concrete examples of how programming works in various clinical settings. The book also provides specific recreation activities from five major program areas, along with information on the effectiveness of the activities, risk management concerns, and implementation strategies. Step-by-step instructions for structuring, planning, and leading both group and one-on-one sessions will prepare students to implement programs in a wide variety of settings. Stories from professionals in the field, examples of real and hypothetical clients, and case studies show students how to use the principles they’ve learned when leading programs. Learning activities help them to further explore the concepts in each chapter, and highlight boxes emphasize key ideas related to each chapter’s content.

Child and Adolescent Depression, An Issue of Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Clinics of North America

By: Stuart J. Goldman,Frances J Wren

Recent work on emotional regulation gives a powerful new lens through which to view the evolution across childhood and adolescence of the lived experience and clinical presentation of depression. We have a richer picture of the depressed child, and the child at risk for depression, in interaction with family and wider world. We know more about the development and the developmental psychopathology of coping strategies. These advances give provocative clues to the actual processes whereby well-established risk and protective factors might interact to produce, sustain or curtail a depressive syndrome. This in turn opens the door to treatment and prevention approaches that are truly developmentally informed. This is the philosophy behind this completely updated and comprehensive analysis of childhood depression.

Crossroads at Midlife

Your Aging Parents, Your Emotions, and Your Self

By: Frances Cohen Praver

With medical science, health care, and healthy lifestyles extending our lifespans as never before, more and more midlife adults are finding themselves caring for their aging parents. This role can trigger not only logistical and financial challenges, but also great emotional upheaval. There is a reversal of roles as the child—often in the midst of raising his or her own adolescent or young adult offspring—becomes the caretaker of the parent. A parent's aging and mortality elicits strong feelings of loss, and a stark realization of one's own aging and mortality. Past, present, and future paths converge, and the caretaker is at the center of that crossroads. Psychologist Praver—a specialist working with such caretakers—shows us their inner worlds, and how they used a difficult point in their lives to embark on a journey of self-understanding and self-transformation—a journey toward a more meaningful life for themselves. Readers can gain a better understanding of their own lives— and know they are not alone in their struggles to contend with and find powerful benefits from the emotional side of caring for an aging parent. Distress can become peace of mind, as we see in the stories of men and women who sought Praver's help. Relationships that might be weakened by a caretaker role—relationships between caretakers and their children, spouses, and friends—can actually grow stronger with the experience. Profound issues affecting caretakers are shared in this evocative book, which is an enlightening and enjoyable read.

George W. Alexander and Castle Thunder

A Confederate Prison and Its Commandant

By: Frances H. Casstevens

Captain George W. Alexander was a controversial figure in Richmond during the Civil War, honored as a hero and condemned as a cruel prison superintendent. He was appointed Provost Marshal and put in charge of Castle Thunder in 1862, after escaping imprisonment at Fort McHenry. At his Confederate prison in Richmond, he oversaw prisoners of all types, including Confederates, women, slaves, Federal deserters, and spies. This biography traces Alexander's life from the U.S. Navy voyage with Commodore Perry to Japan, hiding in Canada after Lee's surrender, editorship of Washington DC's Sunday Gazette to his death in 1895. The main body of the text concentrates on Alexander's time at Castle Thunder, but the book also explores the evolution of the prison system and the provost marshal's department, touching on unusual prisoners and escape attempts. Appendix 1 is a partial list of prisoners at Castle Thunder and when, where, and why they were arrested. Appendix 2 is a transcript of the court martial of Private John R. Jones. Appendix 3 lists prisoners sent from Camp Holmes and appendix 4 is a report of Alexander as Assistant Provost Marshall. Appendix 5 is a pamphlet published by the Republican Party National Committee; it struck at the Democratic Party by scorning its "military prison keepers.

The Civil War and Yadkin County, North Carolina

By: Frances H. Casstevens

Located in the western piedmont of North Carolina, Yadkin County was hardly a hotbed of rebellion at the start of the Civil War. Many of the 1,200 men from Yadkin who served in the Confederate Army did so with distinction, but a number deserted. Some of these holed up in the Bond School House, and when the militia attempted to arrest them, four were killed and several others were wounded. This is a comprehensive accounting of how the county responded to the Civil War and the effect it had on Yadkin's citizens, civilian and military alike.

BOTH A NOVEL AND A BUSINESS BOOK This book has two parts. The first is a novel set in the company Summit, a very large consulting firm trying to recover from a devastating and very public scandal. It has become a pariah, the new tobacco. The best people have fled and it draws in those who are looking to cash in on its weakened state. With few qualifications and fewer morals, Jamie wrangles his way in, aiming for the top with as little work and as much manipulation as possible. Along the way he betrays his boss, parlays a rumor of another scandal into a job as the President's assistant, tries to blackmail a Vice-president for a cut of the scam, and eventually is defeated, almost incidentally, by a President who is using him as a pawn in her bigger game of power and control.Jamie's narrative is one of five overlapping stories of people in the company, all of which illustrate the emotional and sometimes disturbing dynamics in organizations when ego, trade-offs, personal preferences, and values come into conflict.The second part are management essays discussing the organizational undercurrent illustrated by each narrative. Much of what really drives organizations-the need for power, the need for control, the fear of taking a risk-are below the surface undercurrents. Unacknowledged, even denied, but nevertheless with a powerful ability to determine the direction of and even pull under the unsuspecting. Each essay challenges the reader to put him/herself in the place of the characters and come to grips with them. "e;I'm not sure how often one can say that a business book is a fun read, but this one surely is. Combining fiction and non-fiction, and drawing on history, personal experience and research literature, Ms. Horibe has leavened the mix with drole humour to produce a book that is cogent, insightful, and right on the money for the times in which we are living."e; Marcia ClementSenior Executive (ret.)Government of Canada"e;These are all issues we wish would go away so we don't have to deal with them. And depending on where you are in the organizational hierarchy, it will be easier to pretend they don't exist or to explain them away. Frances first uses the familiar medium of soap-opera-type dramatization in a novel format to expose them, and then uses an in-your-face essay style to analyze and explore their implications. It was refreshing to see words put around the unspeakable but then Frances confronts us to face up to who really has the power in today's organizations."e;Rod BrandvoldVice-President (ret.), Talent Management Canadian Blood Services"e;The heart of this book is a number of interconnected stories, each from the perspective of a different person in the same organization-this works very well in drawing out issues and perhaps, most importantly, allowing emotional aspects their full weight as in real life. The short essays that follow enable the author to address the lessons from the stories and to explore what can be done about them. Even when I disagreed with some of the arguments, I found myself many days later still thinking about them."e;John EdwardsFormer Commissioner Correctional Service of Canada "e;Like nothing I've ever read before. The novel part sucks you in via curiosity or caring-and then-like a season ending TV show-leaves you hanging with anticipation, curiosity and a dab of frustration. WHO would have thought it existed-a literary book on management theory! It teaches by stealth-as it captures you first with its compelling story line, 3-D character development, and dare I say it-mystery."e; Ed DiZazzoEAP counsellor/executive career coach"e;The essays provoked thought. It leads the reader to reflect on his/her own situation. You see parallels. You see yourself or others you work with. I made me wonder how often I rode a current versus trying to change or alter it. In my case, I think early on in my career, I learned to read then ride the currents, whereas now I try to cha

Hair of the Dog

By: Alexander Hartman,Frances Hymes

We attacked and ate a number of people because we were hungry." Centuries ago, a man stood accused of thirteen ghastly murders. Brazenly, he declared his innocence, blaming his acts on a curse that transformed him into a ravenous wolf. It was a case that would shatter the blissful ignorance of human civility and pave the way to understanding modern serial killers. Today, Morgan Stern awakens to a morning worth sleeping through. A stupid prank, a humiliating video, and the aftermath of the ensuing bender ought to be penance enough for whatever karmic debt he owed the universe. But when one of the pranksters turns up brutally mutilated in the Virginian forests, clearing his name will mean stepping into a nightmare world of vengeance, violence, and creatures long thought to be mere fantasy...and all before his first cup of coffee too.

The Founding of Alabama

Background and Formative Period in the Great Bend and Madison County

By: Frances Cabaniss Roberts

The most thorough history of Alabama’s Madison County region, widely available for the first time The 1956 dissertation by Frances Cabaniss Roberts is a classic text on Alabama history that continues to be cited by southern historians. Roberts was the first woman to earn a PhD from the University of Alabama’s history department. In the 1950s, she was the only full-time faculty member at what is now the University of Alabama in Huntsville, where she was appointed chair of the history department in 1966. Roberts’s dissertation, “Background and Formative Period in the Great Bend and Madison County,” remains the most thorough history of the region yet produced. While certainly a product of its era, Roberts work is visionary in its own way and offers a useful look at Alabama’s rise to statehood. Thomas Reidy, editor of this edition, has kept Roberts’s words intact except for correction of minor typographical errors and helpful additions to the notes and citations. His introduction describes both the value of Roberts’s decades of service to UAH and the importance of her dissertation over time. While highlighting the great intrinsic value of Roberts’s research and writing, Reidy also notes its significance in demonstrating how the practice of history—its methods, priorities, and values—has evolved over the intervening decades. In her examination of Madison County, Roberts spotlights exemplars of civic performance and good community behavior, giving readers one of the earliest accountings of the antebellum southern middle class. Unlike many historians of her time, Roberts displays an interest in both the “common folks” and leaders who built the region—rural and urban—and created the institutions that shaped Madison County. She examines the contributions of merchants, shopkeepers, lawyers, doctors, architects, craftsmen, planters, farmers, elected and appointed officials, board members, and entrepreneurs.

When Was Arts in Health?

A History of the Present

By: Frances Williams

This book critically appraises the field of Arts in Health in the light of the recent public health crisis and so-called culture wars. A new term was coined in Britain in 2017 for this area of work by an All-Party Parliamentary Group: “creative health”. Williams sets this hopeful assertion against a darker backdrop of austerity, rising inequality and “Covid-nationalism”. Understandings of the field as a (multi)national phenomenon are examined through contested narratives that surround its origin. Using genealogical methods, Williams shows how at supra, national and local policy levels, Arts in Health is presented as an idea that transcends place and time. Arguing against this premise, post-war decades are examined to reveal hidden, mutable arts-health expressions. Examples of practice, and their recognition as such, are context dependent it is concluded – produced by political economies as well as oppositional social movements.

Tales from the North and the South

Twenty-Four Remarkable People and Events of the Civil War

By: Frances H. Casstevens

In June 1862, James J. Archer was promoted to the rank of brigadier general by Robert E. Lee. Serving with distinction in prominent battles such as those at Bull Run, Chancellorsville and Harpers Ferry, this lawyer-turned-general earned not only the respect of his superiors but the esteem and admiration of his men. Imprisoned first at Fort Delaware and then at Johnson's Island, Archer was one of the "First Fifty" (and as it turned out only) officers to be part of a Confederate/Union prisoner exchange. Upon returning to the Confederacy, Archer resumed command and served until his death from battle wounds in October 1864. From doctors to lawyers and privates to generals, this volume records the stories of a few special people--such as General James Archer--who chose to serve their country during the Civil War. Twenty-four individuals from both sides of the Mason-Dixon line are remembered for their extraordinary and often little known contributions to the Confederate and Union causes. These include Colonel Thomas Rose, who was in charge of the Libby Prison tunnel; Colonel John R. Winston, who was one of the few to escape from the Federal prison on Johnson's Island; Sally Tompkins, who ran a private hospital in Richmond; and Sergeant Richard Kirkland, who risked his life to take water to the Federal troops at Fredericksburg. Other featured individuals include Susie Baker King Taylor, Colonel Hector McKethan, Dr. Mary Walker and Richard Thomas Zarvona. Contemporary sources include a variety of correspondence and diaries from these subjects and those who knew them. Appendices contain a roll of participants in the Great Locomotive Chase; a list of Federal prisoners who escaped through the Libby Prison tunnel; a directory of Confederate officers on board the Maple Leaf; and the history of the Congressional Medal of Honor and the Confederate Roll of Honor. A number of contemporary photographs are also included.

Democracy's Edge

Choosing to Save Our Country by Bringing Democracy to Life

By: Frances Moore Lappe

Three out of five Americans, both Republicans and Democrats, feel our country is headed in the wrong direction. America is at the edge, a critical place at which we can either renew and revitalize or give in and lose that most precious American ideal--democracy--and along with it the freedom, fairness, and opportunities it assures. Democracy's Edge is a rousing battle cry that we can--and must--act now. From Jefferson to Eisenhower, presidents from both parties have warned us of the danger of letting a closed, narrow group of business and government officials concentrate power over our lives. Yet today, a small and unrepresentative group of people is making vital decisions for all of us. But this crisis is only a symptom, Lappé argues. It's a symptom of thin democracy, something done to us or for us, not by or with us. Such democracy is always at risk of being stolen by private interests or extremist groups, left and right. But there is a solution. The answer, says Lappé, is Living Democracy, a powerful yet often invisible citizens' revolution surging in communities across America. It's not random, disjointed activism but the emergence of a new historical stage of democracy in which Americans realize that democracy isn't something we have but something we do. Either we live it or lose it, says Lappé.

The Quiet Trailblazer

My Journey as the First Black Graduate of the University of Georgia

By: Mary Frances Early

The Quiet Trailblazer recounts Mary Frances Early’s life from her childhood in Atlanta, her growing interest in music, and her awakening to the injustices of racism in the Jim Crow South. Early carefully maps the road to her 1961 decision to apply to the master’s program in music education at the University of Georgia, becoming one of only three African American students. With this personal journey we are privy to her prolonged and difficult admission process; her experiences both troubling and hopeful while on the Athens campus; and her historic graduation in 1962. Early shares fascinating new details of her regular conversations with civil rights icon Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta. She also recounts her forty-eight years as a music educator in the state of Georgia, the Southeast, and at the national level. She continued to blaze trails within the field and across professional associations. After Early earned her master’s and specialist’s degrees, she became an acclaimed Atlanta music educator, teaching music at segregated schools and later being promoted to music director of the entire school system. In 1981 Early became the first African American elected president of the Georgia Music Educators Association. After she retired from working in public schools in 1994, Early taught at Morehouse College and Spelman College and served as chair of the music department at Clark Atlanta University. Early details her welcome reconciliation with UGA, which had failed for decades to publicly recognize its first Black graduate. In 2018 she received the President’s Medal, and her portrait is one of only two women’s to hang in the Administration Building. Most recently, Early was honored by the naming of the College of Education in her honor.
