An ideal source for general readers and students, "The Rush to German Unity" explores whether solving the old German problem (by bringing down the Berlin Wall) has merely created new difficulties for Germany and challenges to overcome.
The second edition of Child and Family Practice: A Relational Perspective examines the world of social work and other mental health counselling practices through the eyes of children, families, and child-centred practitioners. Case stories are liberally used to illustrate how theories and approaches are applied in real world practice and emphasize the complexities of working with a broad and diverse range of people and systems. Developmental and relational theories highlight the distinctive differences between child-centred and adult-based practice, particularly due to children's interdependence on families and carers. This second edition also brings readers up to speed on changes in social policy, theoretical perspectives, and cultural understandings, and shifts in world views that have taken place since volume one. The book is intended for use in classrooms and also for others invested in improving the lives of children in their practice settings"--
Konrad H. Jarausch studies the social structure of the German university and the mentality of its students during the Imperial period as an example of a wider European academic desertion of liberalism. He finds that German higher education combined scientific world leadership and competent professional training with an eroding liberal education (Bildung) to create an educated class that was tragically susceptible to the appeal of the Third Reich. Originally published in 1982. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
