Life Supports: New and Collected Poems

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bronk, William / Canade, Eugene G., PUBLISHER: North Point Press, "This is an utterly compelling, harrowing and masterfully written body of poetry. Its publication is a major literary event". -- The Los Angeles Times Book Review The original edition of Life Supports, published in , was greeted as one of the most significant literary works to appear in this country. Cited by The New York Times Book Review, as "one of our finest... poets", Bronk went on to win the American Book Award and a reputation, in the words of Kirkus Reviews, as "one of the most solid and unfrivolous poets". Since then, there have been nine additional books, including a volume of collected essays Vectors and Smoothable Curves, which the Los Angeles Times called "the products of a unified sensibility in the tradition of our most original prose stylists". Among writers of his generation, few are as esteemed by those who require the highest standards for the books they read. Bronk's "rare gift" as an essay in the Voice Literary Supplement recently argued, "is the ability to float difficult truths on fleeting snatches of spoken breath". Bronk, according to Compound Eye, "is one of America's greatest living poets". According to poet and critic Michael Heller, he is "one of our modern masters". The new edition of Life Supports makes available once again one of the principal literary works of our time.

LOVE'S WAY: The Union of Body, Ego, Soul and Spirit

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Schaeffer, Brenda, PUBLISHER: Hazelden, In this celebratory book, Dr. Schaeffer transports us beyond her best-seller, "Is It Love or Is It Addiction? "and makes clear that love is not an addiction. But "what is love?" Exploring the pain, perils and pitfalls of relationships in our time, grounding herself in extensive clinical experience with love addiction and other disorders of loving, she cracks the mystery of love wide open. Through an enlightened series of "Memos from Love," that came to her in quiet meditation, the book became much greater than her original vision and took on a life of its own. "Love's Way "soars beyond psychology to become the first guide to modern love that does full justice to the power, beauty, mystery, and omnipresence of love itself. With compassion, it reminds us how trauma, betrayal, and the loss of innocence leave our hearts raw, wounded and closed to a love that is right at our fingertips. Love speaks to us directly in this book, and its voice is strong. Besides telling us what love is and is not, love offers body, ego, soul and spirit challenging assignments that assure a vibrant love life and walk us into the 21st Century. Chock-full of modern insight, ancient wisdom, and stories and poems that range from consulting room accounts to the ecstatic songs of Rumi, "Love's Way," will convince readers that whether or not they are in a relationship, they are definitely "in love"-already caught up in love's transforming power. Exercises at the end of this philosophical and profoundly satisfying book add the practical element needed to take love to the streets. For people who have become disconnected from the joys of the heart, this phenomenal book by Brenda Schaeffer is a must read.

Contemporary Issues in Educational Policy and School

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hoy, Wayne K. / Miskel, Cecil, PUBLISHER: Information Age Publishing, This book is the fifth in a series on research and theory dedicated to advancing our understanding of schools through empirical study and theoretical analysis. Scholars, both young and established, are invited to publish original analyses, but we especially encourage young scholars to contribute to this series. The current volume is similar to its predecessors in that it provides a mix of beginning and established scholars and a broad range of theoretical perspectives; in all 14 authors contributed to 9 separate but related analyses, which were selected for publication this year. These chapters underscore the significance of educational policy in contemporary public education and in particular the impact of accountability policy on school outcomes. Public schools are increasingly being held accountable for students achieving at higher levels in both basic skills and higher-level learning outcomes. Of course, all policy is enacted by teachers in classroom and sometimes changed or distorted in the process. The challenge is to improve student outcomes without permitting accountability testing to extinguish innovation and creativity in schools. This book series on Theory and Research in Educational Administration is about understanding schools. We welcome articles and analyses that explain school organizations and administration. We are interested in the "why" questions about schools. To that end, case analyses, surveys, large data base analyses, experimental studies, and theoretical analyses are all welcome. We provide the space for authors to do comprehensive analyses where that is appropriate and useful. We believe that the Theory and Research in Educational Administration Series has the potential to make an important contribution to our field, but we will be successful only if our colleagues continue to join us in this mission.
