The Junction of Sunshine and Lucky

By: Holly Schindler

“Beasts of the Southern Wild” meets Because of Winn Dixie in this inspiring story of hope. August “Auggie” Jones lives with her Grandpa Gus, a trash hauler, in a poor part of town. So when her wealthy classmate’s father starts the House Beautification Committee, it’s homes like Auggie’s that are deemed “in violation.” Auggie is determined to prove that she is not as run-down as the outside of her house might suggest. Using the kind of items Gus usually hauls to the scrap heap, a broken toaster becomes a flower; church windows turn into a rainbow walkway; and an old car gets new life as spinning whirligigs. What starts out as a home renovation project becomes much more as Auggie and her grandpa discover a talent they never knew they had—and redefine a whole town’s perception of beauty, one recycled sculpture at a time. Auggie’s talent for creating found art will remind readers that one girl’s trash really is another girl’s treasure.

Threshold Concepts in Women’s and Gender Studies

Ways of Seeing, Thinking, and Knowing

By: Christie Launius,Holly Hassel

Threshold Concepts in Women’s and Gender Studies: Ways of Seeing, Thinking, and Knowing is a textbook designed primarily for introduction to Women’s and Gender Studies courses with the intent of providing both a skills- and concept-based foundation in the field. The text is driven by a single key question: "What are the ways of thinking, seeing, and knowing that characterize women’s and gender studies and are valued by its practitioners?" Rather than taking a topical approach, Threshold Concepts in Women’s and Gender Studies develops the key concepts and ways of thinking that students need in order to develop a deep understanding and to approach material like feminist scholars do, across disciplines. This book illustrates four of the most critical concepts in women’s and gender studies: the social construction of gender; privilege and oppression; intersectionality; and feminist praxis, and grounds these concepts in multiple illustrations.

Professionalism in Psychiatry

By: Glen O. Gabbard,Laura Weiss Roberts,Holly Crisp-Han,Valdesha Ball,Gabrielle Hobday,Funmilayo Rachal

Physicians and psychiatrists typically see themselves as true professionals. But in the past, some displayed behavior far beneath the confines of professionalism, including exploding at nurses, not returning calls, or conducting insensitive interactions with patients, that was usually tolerated and seldom disciplined. Today, the rise of professionalism in medicine in general and psychiatry in particular has prompted a quiet revolution in how doctors are trained and how they are expected to behave in the workplace. The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) has now advanced professionalism to be one of the core competencies all emerging practitioners must have. While almost all physicians believe in professionalism, the movement toward making it a core competency has challenged doctors everywhere to accept the practice of monitoring, observing and assessing what is not always welcome in a field where autonomy is so highly valued. In Professionalism in Psychiatry, the authors identify and expand on professional behaviors, such as being a good team player, being accountable, pursuing improvement in an ongoing way, and behaving compassionately toward patients and families. The importance of treating all co-workers with respect and of being attuned to the management of healthcare resources in a way that reflects fairness and integrity is also thoroughly reviewed. Important features of this book are: Tailoring professionalism principles from medicine to the unique features of psychiatry in order to enhance educators' teaching and improve the behaviors of psychiatrists and residents in the work setting. Development of guidelines for professionalism in cyberspace to provide psychiatrists with an ethical framework for dealing with patients in the online realm. Discussion of the ethical principles that apply when academic departments approach donors. Focus on cultural competency and empathy in an effort to improve patient care through greater understanding and sensitivity to ethnic, racial, gender and sexual orientation issues encountered in clinical practice. Use of numerous clinical examples to articulate the new professionalism in psychiatry, which illustrates the importance of going beyond "one size fits all" thinking. Professionalism in Psychiatry is an important contribution toward beginning to characterize the ever-evolving professional behaviors and clinical strategies of the contemporary psychiatrist and place them in a systematic framework.

Balancing the Big Stuff

Finding Happiness in Work, Family, and Life

By: Miriam Liss,Holly H. Schiffrin

While the current conversation about work-family balance and “having it all” tends to focus on women, both men and women are harmed when conditions make it impossible to balance meaningful work with family life. Yet, both will benefit from re-evaluating what it means to have it all and fighting for changes in their relationships and society to make greater equality possible. Here, Miriam Liss and Holly Hollomon Schiffrin discuss the ways in which we all define “having it all” and how we can obtain it for ourselves through a better evaluation of what we want from ourselves, our families, our jobs, and each other. Determining a 50/50 division of labor around the house may not be the thing that works for everyone. Working from home or not at all may not be the thing to bring us satisfaction, but learning what studies show and how to feel balanced and make those decisions to bring balance is crucial. The authors argue that people can find balance in their roles by doing things in moderation. Although being engaged in both parenting and work is good for well-being, people can avoid the pitfalls of over-parenting and over-working. They show that balance can come from a meaningful consideration of what happiness and contentedness mean to us as individuals, and how best to achieve our goals within the limitations of our current circumstances. They illustrate that balance is not simply an individual problem. Social issues such as the lack of parental leave, flexible work schedules, and affordable, high quality child care make balance difficult. With attention now on the issue, they argue that it’s time men and women advocate for better services and better opportunities to achieve balance, happiness, and success in all their roles.

The Age of Questions

Or, A First Attempt at an Aggregate History of the Eastern, Social, Woman, American, Jewish, Polish, Bullion, Tuberculosis, and Many Other Questions Over the Nineteenth Century, and Beyond

By: Holly Case

A groundbreaking history of the Big Questions that dominated the nineteenth century In the early nineteenth century, a new age began: the age of questions. In the Eastern and Belgian questions, as much as in the slavery, worker, social, woman, and Jewish questions, contemporaries saw not interrogatives to be answered but problems to be solved. Alexis de Tocqueville, Victor Hugo, Karl Marx, Frederick Douglass, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Rosa Luxemburg, and Adolf Hitler were among the many who put their pens to the task. The Age of Questions asks how the question form arose, what trajectory it followed, and why it provoked such feverish excitement for over a century. Was there a family resemblance between questions? Have they disappeared, or are they on the rise again in our time? In this pioneering book, Holly Case undertakes a stunningly original analysis, presenting, chapter by chapter, seven distinct arguments and frameworks for understanding the age. She considers whether it was marked by a progressive quest for emancipation (of women, slaves, Jews, laborers, and others); a steady, inexorable march toward genocide and the "Final Solution"; or a movement toward federation and the dissolution of boundaries. Or was it simply a farce, a false frenzy dreamed up by publicists eager to sell subscriptions? As the arguments clash, patterns emerge and sharpen until the age reveals its full and peculiar nature. Turning convention on its head with meticulous and astonishingly broad scholarship, The Age of Questions illuminates how patterns of thinking move history.

Herbs Demystified

A Scientist Explains How the Most Common Herbal Remedies Really Work

By: Holly Phaneuf

The scores of books on herbs already available generally restate old, often outdated lore about herbs. Now, Herbs Demystified does something entirely different: It is the first book to explain exactly what herbs actually do inside our bodies and how they achieve their effects. Biochemist Holly Phaneuf covers 100 of the most popular herbs-astragalus, black cohosh, chamomile, echinacea, garlic, gingko, ginseng, milk thistle, pine bark extract, saw palmetto, valerian, and many others. Phaneuf's introductory overview lays out the basic chemical principles that underlie the journey herbal molecules make in our bodies. Then, for each of the herbs, she covers its history and folklore; explains what the herb really does-its evidence of action; its good uses and not so good uses, including the forms in which it is typically available and commonly reported dosages; interesting facts and the bottom line. Like no other herb book before, Herbs Demystified allows readers to custom-fit an herb to one's own particular concern, therefore minimizing trial and error.
