Yudl: A Novel and Selected Short Stories

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Silbert, Layle, PUBLISHER: Seven Stories Press,U.S., "Yudl" is a previously unpublished novella and a collection of short stories that have appeared in a number of literary magazines. Set in s Chicago, the novella follows a character named Yudl, a middle-aged editor at a left-leaning newspaper called "The Yiddish Courier." Yudl and his wife have decided to become landlords, purchasing a vacant lot and hiring an acquaintance--aptly named Mason--to oversee the construction of their future apartment building. However, delays in the construction leave Yudl and his family without a home, forcing them to stay with Mason and his family until the construction is finally complete. Told with wry wit and a masterful sensibility for metaphor, the story explores gender, Zionism, and the immigrant experience in the US. Silbert's graceful short stories focus on the family, allowing the reader glimpses of a child's happiness, the cripplingly contradictory demands of femininity, the complexity of grief, and a sustained meditation on life and death.

Foster Family Care: Theory and Practice

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Martin, Judith A., PUBLISHER: Allyn & Bacon, This book is authored by Judith Martin, co-author of the classic child welfare text with Dr. Alfred Kadushin. The book describes the process of carrying out one of the core child welfare services for families: foster family care. Taking an in-depth look at this service, "Foster Family Care" moves the reader from the experiences of children and their parents as they first enter care, through the process of settling in and confronting the problems that led to the need for placement, to an assessment of the outcomes of care and its consequences for the growing child. The book offers a thorough review of current literature on foster family care and a critical perspective on this service. A central theme is the concept of quality service delivery; the perspective draws heavily on attachment theory and on practice principles embedded in the concept of permanency planning. For social workers, psychologists, or practitioners in related fields.

When I Was Built

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Thermes, Jennifer, PUBLISHER: Henry Holt & Company, One humble house tells its own intriguing history. "Today, big houses surround me, up" "and down my street. When I was" "built, the Fairchilds were the only" "people around for miles and miles." Standing strong and proud, a trusty old farmhouse reflects on its beginnings, remembering the Fairchild family who built it more than two hundred years ago and comparing what life was like then to the bustling world of the Gray family, its present dwellers. With rich historical detail and warm affirmation of both past and present, "When I Was Built" celebrates continuity and change, as it conveys the welcoming spirit that makes a house a much-loved home.

Memory Distortions and Their Prevention

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Intons-Peterson, M. J. / Best, Deborah L. / Intons-Peterson, Magaret J., PUBLISHER: Psychology Press, This volume explores the well-documented phenomena of memory distortion in a variety of settings, as well as how it can be ameliorated or prevented altogether. The editors have recruited some of the very best researchers in the applied cognitive field to address these issues. These authors examine distortion from several angles: fuzzy trace theory, face identification, memory deficits with age, collaborative influences on distortion, sociocultural influences on memory, retention of procedural and declarative information, and ignorance of medical and other information. The final chapter addresses the issue of cognitive technology, in general. Because of the surge of interest in applied cognitive psychology and in the memory distortion issue in particular, this book will be valuable to many applied and basic researchers.
