Seventh-Day Adventism in Crisis

Gender and Sectarian Change in an Emerging Religion

By: Laura Lee Vance

How can a movement founded on the prophecies and visions of one woman, and reliant in its early stages on the pastoral leadership, teaching, and proselytizing of many others, come to define women's roles in ways that exclude them from active public participation and leadership in the church?

Gendered Strife & Confusion

The Political Culture of Reconstruction

By: Laura F. Edwards

Exploring the gendered dimension of political conflicts, Laura Edwards links transformations in private and public life in the era following the Civil War. Ideas about men's and women's roles within households shaped the ways groups of southerners--elite and poor, whites and blacks, Democrats and Republicans--envisioned the public arena and their own places in it. By using those on the margins to define the center, Edwards demonstrates that Reconstruction was a complicated process of conflict and negotiation that lasted long beyond 1877 and involved all southerners and every aspect of life.

Negotiating Disability

Disclosure and Higher Education

By: Stephanie L. Kerschbaum,Laura T. Eisenman,James M. Jones

Disability is not always central to claims about diversity and inclusion in higher education, but should be. This collection reveals the pervasiveness of disability issues and considerations within many higher education populations and settings, from classrooms to physical environments to policy impacts on students, faculty, administrators, and staff. While disclosing one’s disability and identifying shared experiences can engender moments of solidarity, the situation is always complicated by the intersecting factors of race and ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and class. With disability disclosure as a central point of departure, this collection of essays builds on scholarship that highlights the deeply rhetorical nature of disclosure and embodied movement, emphasizing disability disclosure as a complex calculus in which degrees of perceptibility are dependent on contexts, types of interactions that are unfolding, interlocutors’ long- and short-term goals, disabilities, and disability experiences, and many other contingencies.

Fort Delaware

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Fort Delaware

By: Laura M. Lee,Brendan Mackie

Located on Pea Patch Island, Fort Delaware was erected to defend local ports from enemy attack but never received or fired a shot in anger. The first earthen-work version, constructed during the War of 1812, was followed by a second 1820s plan incorporating a masonry star design with a network of drainage ditches. Engineering issues and a low-lying site doomed the structure; in 1831, it was irreparably damaged by fire. A new plan created a more substantial fortification still standing to this day. Fort Delaware evolved into a well-established community that transformed from protector to notorious Civil War prison camp. Most widely known as a prison, it subsequently served in lesser roles through three more conflicts. Images of America: Fort Delaware unifies an amazing pictorial record of Fort Delawares historical timeline. The story is not only of active duty but its rescue from abandonment and subsequent successful preservation work.

Practical Steps for Healing During Separation & Divorce

By: Laura Petherbridge

When Laura Petherbridge realized her marriage was ending, she asked the gut-wrenching question, "What do I do now?" Now Laura offers practical answers about divorce that she has found through her own experience and through two decades of caring for those grieving the loss of a marriage. In the midst of pain and confusion, you might also be asking questions such as these: How do I find where I belong when I no longer know my identity? If my spouse asks for forgiveness, should I go back? If I get an attorney, will my spouse think I'm giving up on our marriage forever? How do I figure out a budget on my own? What should I do when others criticize my ex-spouse in front of my kids? How do I reenter the workplace after years of staying home? How will I know when it's a good time to date again? Does God still care about me? Will I ever be happy again? With straightforward, sensitive answers to these questions and others, Petherbridge offers real-life help, spiritual insights, and new hope for the future.

You Are Unshaken - Includes Seven-Session Video Series

Finding Security in God in an Uncertain World

By: Laura Krokos

Learn how to wield God’s Word as a weapon against anxiety, shame, and fear, so you can remain unshaken in our changing world. Unseen. Powerless. Hopeless. Many of us believe that these words describe who we are. In You Are Unshaken, Laura Krokos reminds us that this is not simply negative self-talk. These are lies Satan uses to keep us from living out the peace-filled, joy-filled life God wants for us. Each chapter in You Are Unshaken exposes one of these lies and equips us to fight back with truth. You Are Unshaken helps us: Find confidence and peace even in difficult circumstances. Learn how to use God’s Word as the sword of the Spirit. Realize that how we see God affects how we see ourselves. Feel grounded in God’s plan for us. Move beyond distractions and discouragements. Knowing God’s character transforms everything in life: our attitudes and actions, our fears and desires. You Are Unshaken is more than a call to know God. It is a reminder of who we already are because of who God has always been.

The Bobbsey Twins

By: Laura Lee Hope

The Bobbsey twins were very busy that morning. They were all seated around the dining-room table, making houses and furnishing them. The houses were being made out of pasteboard shoe boxes, and had square holes cut in them for doors, and other long holes for windows, and had pasteboard chairs and tables, and bits of dress goods for carpets and rugs, and bits of tissue paper stuck up to the windows for lace curtains. Three of the houses were long and low, but Bert had placed his box on one end and divided it into five stories, and Flossie said it looked exactly like a department house in New York. There were four of the twins. Now that sounds funny, doesn't it? But, you see, there were two sets. Bert and Nan, age eight, and Freddie and Flossie, age four.

Research Methods for Evidence-Based Practice

By: John S. Wodarski,Laura M. Hopson

This practical and student-friendly text teaches social work students the concepts and skills needed to apply research methods in their practice with clients. It offers students an enhanced understanding of the research process, and equips them with the necessary tools and skills to evaluate studies, translate relevant behavioral science knowledge into practice principles, and implement evaluation procedures in their daily practice. Renowned authors Wodarski and Hopson use social work research methods to examine emerging issues in the field as they pertain to evidence-based practice, such as curriculum development and funding. This approach yields a unique analysis that differs from others on the market because it fully integrates evidence-based practice methodology into the heart of the text, rather than in a single chapter.

Repositioning Reference

New Methods and New Services for a New Age

By: Laura Saunders,Lillian Rozaklis,Eileen G. Abels

To compete today, librarians need to not only provide old services in new ways but also to provide new services. Repositioning Reference: New Methods and New Services for a New Age re-imagines reference services in libraries and information organizations and the role of reference librarians, taking into account rapid developments in technology and information-specific services in non-library sectors. It traces the history of technology adoption for reference services, describes competitive pressures facing reference services, identifies untapped opportunities for reference services and librarians, details innovative and creative solutions for energizing the profession and engaging library user communities, and prescribes means to evaluating technologies for reference services. This book: • Includes current and unique examples of innovative reference services to serve as inspiration and launching points for readers. • Offers contemporary management theory and practice from outside of the field of LIS to offer readers a guide for initiating, leading, and managing change in their organizations. • Outlines the processes of environmental scanning and SWOT analysis, which are important practices for keeping abreast of changes in the field and positioning an organization to make the most of their opportunities and to minimize threats. Repositioning Reference may be used as a textbook by LIS educators whose courses and learning experiences prepare aspiring librarians to lead the reference revolution and by practicing librarians in diverse settings who want to be change agents.

The Teaching Archive

A New History for Literary Study

By: Rachel Sagner Buurma,Laura Heffernan

The Teaching Archive shows us a series of major literary thinkers in a place we seldom remember them inhabiting: the classroom. Rachel Sagner Buurma and Laura Heffernan open up “the teaching archive”—the syllabuses, course descriptions, lecture notes, and class assignments—of critics and scholars including T. S. Eliot, Caroline Spurgeon, I. A. Richards, Edith Rickert, J. Saunders Redding, Edmund Wilson, Cleanth Brooks, Josephine Miles, and Simon J. Ortiz. This new history of English rewrites what we know about the discipline by showing how students helped write foundational works of literary criticism and how English classes at community colleges and HBCUs pioneered the reading methods and expanded canons that came only belatedly to the Ivy League. It reminds us that research and teaching, which institutions often imagine as separate, have always been intertwined in practice. In a contemporary moment of humanities defunding, the casualization of teaching, and the privatization of pedagogy, The Teaching Archive offers a more accurate view of the work we have done in the past and must continue to do in the future.

Holy Gravity

Fearing God from the Inside Out

By: Laura Jackson

Have you heard people say, “Fearing God doesn’t mean to be afraid of Him but to be in awe of Him and revere Him?” I have, too. But what if it’s more than that? And what if this fear can change our lives? We are living in dark, chaotic times where sin is raging in the world and our hearts. Even many in churches who say they love God are fighting habitual sins. What if our sin problem is a fear problem? In my grief, I searched Scripture, asking the Lord for a deeper understanding of the fear of God. He revealed a powerful point of clarification—fearing God is not only a mindset but a way of life. It’s not just how we feel or what we think about God but how we respond visibly to His glory. With Scripture as its foundation and authority, Holy Gravity explores the connection between our sanctification and the fear of God. God’s people are to be set apart; our greatest distinction from the world is our fear of God manifested in holy living. Through a relationship with Jesus Christ, God frees us from sin, maturing us by the Holy Spirit in visible ways. In this place of God-focused fear, we can offer the hope of Christ to the world and one another. I pray you will find that God intends our fear of Him to transform our lives and make us holy. “Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.” Ecclesiastes 12:13

Something from the Oven

Reinventing Dinner in 1950s America

By: Laura Shapiro

Author of the forthcoming What She Ate: Six Remarkable Women and the Food That Tells Their Stories (Summer 2017) In this captivating blend of culinary history and popular culture, the award-winning author of Perfection Salad shows us what happened when the food industry elbowed its way into the kitchen after World War II, brandishing canned hamburgers, frozen baked beans, and instant piecrusts. Big Business waged an all-out campaign to win the allegiance of American housewives, but most women were suspicious of the new foods—and the make-believe cooking they entailed. With sharp insight and good humor, Laura Shapiro shows how the ensuing battle helped shape the way we eat today, and how the clash in the kitchen reverberated elsewhere in the house as women struggled with marriage, work, and domesticity. This unconventional history overturns our notions about the ’50s and offers new thinking on some of its fascinating figures, including Poppy Cannon, Shirley Jackson, Julia Child, and Betty Friedan.

By: Laura Cullen,Kirsten Hanrahan,Michele Farrington,Sharon Tucker,Stephanie Edmonds

“Building on extensive real-life experience with EBP, this expert team from University of Iowa Hospitals & Clinics provides vital guidance to clinicians at the cutting edge of care improvement.” –Kathleen R.

It should also be a well-worn tool in every implementation scientist’s toolkit. –Heather Schacht Reisinger, PhD Professor, Department of Internal Medicine Associate Director for Engagement, Integration and Implementation Institute for Clinical and Translational Science, University of Iowa Translate knowledge, research, and clinical expertise into action. The biggest barrier to effective evidence-based practice (EBP) is the failure to effectively translate available knowledge, research, and clinical expertise into action. This failure is rarely due to lack of information, understanding, or experience. In fact, it usually comes down to a simple lack of tools and absence of a clear plan to integrate EBP into care. Problem solved: Evidence-Based Practice in Action, Second Edition, is a time-tested, application-oriented EBP resource for any EBP process model and is organized based on The Iowa Model Revised: Evidence-Based Practice to Promote Excellence in Health Care. This book offers a proven, detailed plan to help nurses and healthcare professionals promote and achieve EBP implementation, adoption, sustained use.

Legal Realism at Yale, 1927-1960

By: Laura Kalman

For more than one hundred years, Harvard's use of the case method of appellate opinions dominated legal education. Deploring the attempt to reduce law to an autonomous system of rules and principles, the realists at Yale developed a functional approach to the discipline--one that stressed the factual context of the case rather than the legal principles it raised, one that attempted to address issues of social policy by integrating law with the social sciences. Originally published 1986. A UNC Press Enduring Edition -- UNC Press Enduring Editions use the latest in digital technology to make available again books from our distinguished backlist that were previously out of print. These editions are published unaltered from the original, and are presented in affordable paperback formats, bringing readers both historical and cultural value.
