We've Got Issues: Children and Parents in the Age of

We've Got Issues: Children and Parents in the Age of

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Warner, Judith, PUBLISHER: Riverhead Books, In her provocative new book, "New York Times"-bestselling author Judith Warner explores the storm of debate over whether we are overdiagnosing and overmedicating our children who have "issues." In "Perfect Madness: Motherhood in the Age of Anxiety," Judith Warner explained what's gone wrong with the culture of parenting, and her conclusions sparked a national debate on how women and society view motherhood. Her new book, "We've Got Issues: Children and Parents in the Age of Medication," will generate the same kind of controversy, as she tackles a subject that's just as contentious and important: Are parents and physicians too quick to prescribe medi-cation to control our children's behavior? Are we using drugs to excuse inept parents who can't raise their children properly? What Warner discovered from the extensive research and interviewing she did for this book is that passion on both sides of the issue "is ideological and only tangentially about real children," and she cuts through the jargon and hysteria to delve into a topic that for millions of parents involves one of the most important decisions they'll ever make for their child. Insightful, compelling, and deeply mov-ing, "We've Got Issues" is for parents, doctors, and teachers-anyone who cares about the welfare of today's children.

Fighting Women: Anger and Aggression in Aboriginal Australia

Fighting Women: Anger and Aggression in Aboriginal Australia

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Burbank, Victoria Katherine, PUBLISHER: University of California Press, Fighting is common among contemporary Aboriginal women in Mangrove, Australia--women fight with men and with other women. Victoria Burbank's depiction of these women offers a powerful new perspective that can be applied to domestic violence in Western settings. Noting that Aboriginal women not only talk without shame about their emotions of anger but also express them in acts of aggression and defense, Burbank emphasizes the positive social and cultural implications of women's refusal to be victims. She explores questions of hierarchy and the expression of emotions, as well as women's roles in domestic violence. Human aggression can be experienced and expressed in different ways, she says, and is not necessarily always "wrong." Timely and controversial, "Fighting Women" will stimulate discussion of aggression and gender relations and will enlarge the debate on the victimization of women and children everywhere.

Already across Africa, Asia, and Latin America, HIV/AIDS threatens to erode fragile economies and set back development for decades. But this may be the tip of the iceberg: the HIV virus is poised to explode in Asia and the former Soviet Union. Meanwhile, in the West, sophisticated drugs have given people with AIDS new hope. This No-Nonsense Guide tells the story so far, looking at the origins of the disease, the way it spreads, the profits made by drug companies, the special vulnerability of women, and the positive action being taken by people and communities to fight back.

TOKINA ATX  f 2,8 Canon

TOKINA ATX f 2,8 Canon

Credo per mancato utilizzo il mio Tokina f 2,8 serie ATX PRO per Canon. Lente assolutamente sottovalutata rispetto ai costosi obiettivi di casa madre. Rende uno sfocato molto pastoso, colori leggermente meno caldi rispetto a quelli tradizionali canon ma più fedeli ed ugualmente saturi. Molto incisa e luminosa. Perfettamente utilizzabile a f. 2,8. Senza segni, polveri o altro malfunzionamento. Costruzione old stile Tokina, ferro e vero vetro, perfettamente assemblati. Peso di circa Kg. 1,3. Da me utilizzata su vari corpi Canon (40D, 5D liscia, 5D II e serie 1 D II N) ha sempre soddisfatto ogni esigenza, anche quelle di foto sportive con poca luce, tipo palazzetti oppure concerti o chiese. Per spassionati commenti vi è un fiume di recensioni positive sul web e siti specializzati. Completo di paraluce in ferro, tappi e bauletto in simil pelle. Gradita prova. Spedizione con imballo pro, € 20. Grazie.

Sunburnt Cities: The Great Recession, Depopulation and Urban

Sunburnt Cities: The Great Recession, Depopulation and Urban

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hollander, Justin B., PUBLISHER: Routledge, In recent years there has been a growing focus on urban and environmental studies and the skills and techniques needed to address the wider challenges of how to create sustainable communities. Until the first decade of the twenty-first century, decline was assumed to be an issue only for former industrial cities a " the so-called Rust Belt. But the sudden reversal in growth in the major cities of the American Sunbelt has shown that urban decline can be a much wider issue. Hollander addresses the reasons and statistics behind these "shrinking cities" with a positive outlook, arguing that growth for growtha (TM)s sake is not beneficial for communities, suggesting instead that urban development could be achieved through shrinkage. Case studies on Phoenix, Flint, Orlando and Fresno support the argument and Hollander delves into the numbers, literature and individual lives affected and how they have changed in response to the declining regions.

The Optimistic Child: A Proven Program to Safeguard Children

The Optimistic Child: A Proven Program to Safeguard Children

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Seligman, Martin E. P. / Reivich, Karen / Jaycox, Lisa, PUBLISHER: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH), In The Optimistic Child, Dr. Martin E. P. Seligman offers parents, teachers, and coaches a well-validated program to prevent depression in children. In a thirty-year study, Seligman and his colleagues discovered the link between pessimism -- dwelling on the most catastrophic cause of any setback -- and depression. Seligman shows adults how to teach children the skills of optimism that can help them combat depression, achieve more on the playing field and at school, and improve their physical health. As Seligman states in his new afterword for this edition, "Teaching children optimism is more, I realized, than just correcting pessimism... It is the creation of a positive strength, a sunny but solid future-mindedness that can be deployed throughout life -- not only to fight depression and to come back from failure, but also to be the foundation of success and vitality."

GIOVANE PITBULL

Probabilmente acquistato che era solo un cucciolo. Forse per moda, forse per capriccio, sicuramente non per amore, perché dopo soli pochi anni di vita hai deciso di abbandonarlo fuori alle porte del canile deturpato da una dermatite mai curata. Le analisi del sangue sono risultate positive a leishmaniosi. Con egoismo e freddezza l’hai lasciato al suo destino nel momento in cui aveva più bisogno di te. Sono trascorsi 3 mesi ormai, Danko con le cure si è rimesso in forze ed adesso sta benissimo, è un cane affettuosissimo con le persone, pieno di vita e trascorre il tempo a tentare di corrompere i volontari coi suoi occhioni per rubare biscotti. Ovviamente andrà regolarmente sottoposto ad esami per monitorare la leishmaniosi, ma speriamo che questo ostacolo non renda la sua adozione impossibile. Giovane, 4-5 anni circa, si trova il Puglia ma siamo disposte a portarlo in tutta Italia. Info e adozioni FB: Lega del Cane Giovinazzo TEL: – – MAIL:
