Questioning Gender: A Sociological Exploration aims to spark productive conversations and questions about gender and serve as a resource for exploring answers to many of those questions. Rather than providing definitive answers, this book aims to challenge students’ preconceptions about gender and demonstrate how gender as a system creates and reinforces inequality. Taking a global approach, author Robyn Ryle uses both historical and cross-cultural approaches to help students understand the socially constructed nature of gender. Through examining contemporary topics, including the #MeToo movement, sexual harassment in the workplace, and the gender wage gap, students will be prompted to think critically about past, present, and future gender-related issues. The Fifth Edition has been updated with expanded coverage of disability as it relates to gender, discussion of issues related to transgender and nonbinary people, and examination of the COVID-19 pandemic′s gender-related effects, as well as updated data throughout.

Holding up the device Jondra said, This is the Golden Disc of Ra the Healing Bomb from our home planet. Because of the sudden and unexpected nature of its destruction, this force was never activated. It was originally prepared to transmute negative emotional thoughts into much more compassionate and loving actions in an explosion of consciousness, not protect us from wayward meteors. One day it may save the dwellers on this planet Earth from destroying themselves. Pity we never had a chance to test it. The Earth is in crisis as the Forces of Darkness and Destruction are rapidly gaining power in many countries. Four people remember their ancient pledge to re-discover one section of the powerful device if a dire enough situation warrants it. When a rogue country detonates a nuclear bomb over Jerusalem, these four are called to save humanity from a destructive aftermath of retribution. From each continent comes one whose ancient destiny is to reassemble the Golden Disc, programmed millennia ago to empower the Forces of Light to triumph. One by one the four are awakened to their destiny, reconnected with each other, and travel to Kenya to reassemble the Golden Disc that will save the Earth. They must release a wave of higher consciousness from the device, called a Healing Bomb, before several other countries ally to become involved in all out nuclear war, which will have a cataclysmic effect on Earth and humanity; far greater than the predicted earth changes that were due to take place at the end of 2012. Will they make it before the deadline, and can they remember how to re-assemble the device in time? If it is not done absolutely correctly, a terrible confl agration could destroy the very thing they are trying to save; Earth. To do so, they will have to outwit those whose role it is to prevent this from happening. - by Robyn Adams

Fans of J.A.

His acting career began with guest character roles in popular TV series such as The Twilight Zone, Bonanza, and Rawhide. In the 1960s Coburn was cast in supporting roles in such great pictures as The Magnificent Seven, Charade, and The Great Escape, and he became a leading man with the hit Our Man Flint.

Look for the Band of Brothers miniseries, now available to stream on Netflix! William “Wild Bill” Guarnere and Edward “Babe” Heffron were among the first paratroopers of the U.S. Army—members of an elite unit of the 101st Airborne Division called Easy Company. The crack unit was called upon for every high-risk operation of the war, including D-Day, Operation Market Garden in Holland, the Battle of the Bulge, and the capture of Hitler’s Eagle’s Nest in Berchtesgaden. In his own words, Guarnere gives a gripping account of D-Day from the paratrooper’s perspective. Both men vividly re-create dropping into Holland to capture the roads and bridges between Eindhoven and Arnhem, known as Hell’s Highway. Through much of 1944 both friends fought side by side—until Guarnere lost his right leg in the Battle of the Bulge and was sent home. Heffron went on to liberate slave labor and concentration camps and capture Hitler’s Eagle’s Nest hideout. United by their experience, the two reconnected at the war’s end and were inseparable up until their deaths. Brothers in Battle, Best of Friends is a tribute to the lasting bond forged between comrades in arms under fire and to all the brave men who fought fearlessly for freedom. Includes photographs

Tampa Suns Hockey Romance, Volume One, contains three complete novels: Healthy Scratch, Risky Move, and Timely Assist. Follow the growing group of friends centered around the Tampa Suns Hockey team. Although interconnected, readers can enjoy each book on its own. Fans of The Clearing The Ice Trilogy will find old friends and new ones introduced in the trilogy. Healthy Scratch: He wants out of the friend zone…she doesn’t believe in happily ever after. Relationships are not in Lauren Gentry’s playbook. The only kind she’s willing to consider are friends-with-benefits, and even a red-hot and sexy hockey player like Dave Martin isn’t going to change that. Right? When those chocolate brown eyes threaten to melt her defenses, she has to remind herself that demons from her past could rise up at any moment. Which is going to be pretty hard to do, since she loses herself every time they touch. Dave used to love the benefits that came easily to professional athletes, especially when they were in the form of puck bunnies who only wanted one night. But when he meets the pint-sized girl with bewitching green eyes and sun-streaked auburn hair, his outlook suddenly changes. He wants forever with Lauren. Now he just has to convince her. Can Lauren risk everything for the man she’s secretly been falling for? Or will her past stop her from taking a chance on love? Risky Move I know all the reasons I shouldn’t kiss you… and then I look at your eyes, and those intentions cease to exist. She’s his brother’s nanny... and totally off-limits. To escape her overprotective mother, Cassie moves to Tampa to decide her future and claim her independence. When she lands a job as a live-in nanny to adorable twin infants, she’s convinced she’s on the right track. Until she meets her new housemate, Tom, an off-the-charts gorgeous neurologist (are they even allowed to be that sexy?), her boss’ brother, and her aunt’s best friend. There are way too many points of contact for them to take the risk... but Cassie can’t help but fantasize what contact with him would feel like. Tom knows the stakes, but Cassie’s vibrant spirit strikes a chord in his heart, and he can’t stay away. But when they think they’re moving in sync, the unthinkable happens. Did taking the risk create a chasm too wide to bridge? Timely Assist "Tough moments, inspiring details, and everything in between..." She has no time for romance. He’s not looking for love. Neither sees the slapshot life sends their way. Shannon Mackenna’s life revolves around her family, with her four-year-old daughter at the center. She knows firsthand how life can change in an instant. Her parents’ unexpected death taught her never to take things for granted. She lives with no regrets—not even the one-night stand with a minor league hockey player that resulted in a surprise pregnancy. When she tried to contact him, he denied recognizing her, and Shannon vowed to raise her daughter alone. Cliff “Cam” Camden embraced the bad-boy-athlete persona the moment he was drafted. He enjoyed all the perks and has long stopped counting notches on his hockey stick. Now, Cam wants more than off-ice conquests. It’s time to put his career first. He’s not looking for distractions—until he meets the beautiful, sassy owner of Shamrock Fitness. Intrigued by the elusive, private woman, Cam hopes for the chance of something more. Shannon fears her past has collided with her carefully scripted life. Neither denies the mutual attraction, but Shannon must protect her secret at all costs—even if it means walking away from her happily ever after.
