Sinossi

"Persecution Facts" offers a comprehensive exploration of religious and ideological persecution throughout human history, examining why societies consistently suppress different belief systems and their followers. The book uniquely combines historical analysis with insights from social psychology and anthropology to reveal the underlying patterns and mechanisms of persecution across civilizations.The work progresses through three interconnected sections, beginning with historical patterns of persecution from ancient times to the present. Using compelling case studies, including the Roman Empire's treatment of early Christians and the Spanish Inquisition, the book illustrates how persecution manifests through various forms of oppression. The analysis then delves into the psychological and sociopolitical factors that enable persecution, such as the human tendency to create in-group/out-group divisions and competition for social influence.Drawing from recently declassified documents, archaeological findings, and contemporary social science research, the book presents a thorough examination of how societies either perpetuate or resist persecutory behaviors. This interdisciplinary approach makes complex concepts accessible to general readers while maintaining academic rigor. The work concludes with practical insights for identifying early warning signs of persecution and promoting religious tolerance in modern society, making it particularly valuable for students, human rights practitioners, and anyone interested in understanding religious conflicts and social dynamics.

The US Army Combat Historian and...

Kathryn Roe Coker, Jason Wetzel

"How is history useful for an operational commander or to soldiers in general? What role does history have for doctrine and training to the U.S. Army as an institution? These are questions this book answers as the authors narrate the development combat historian and the evolving role of combat historians as they develop history into a useful tool for informing training, operations, and doctrine development."—New York Journal of Books

In World War I, Major General Pershing proposed the idea of establishing a historical office within the AEF headquarters. The War Department reorganized the General Staff to include a Historical Branch. Evidence shows that soldiers acting as historians went "down range," albeit not into combat. By World War II, the situation had changed—whether S.L.A. Marshall's popping out of a billet in Sibret as a shells exploded on the road; Forrest Pogue's typing "on a little camp desk under an apple tree;" Chester Starr's terrain reconnaissance in the Mediterranean theater, or Ken Hechler's command of a four-man historical team interviewing soldiers at the Remagen Bridge and searching through secret documents—the World War II combat historians were there behind and on the front lines with a notebook in one hand and their carbine in the other hand, ever ready to collect battlefield information.

Eight historical service detachments were deployed to Korea. The youngest commander, 1st Lieutenant Bevin Alexander, noted "We were on the front lines the whole time . . . We would interview the people afterwards and create a battle study…." After the Korean War, the duties of the combat historian further evolved as what became the Center of Military History published doctrine about military history detachments (MHDs). As America’s immersion in Vietnam escalated, there was concern regarding historical coverage. Chief of Military History Brigadier General Hal Pattison established a network of historical teams to collect information on the U.S Army in the war. A major development in the history program and in deploying MHDs came with the establishment of Headquarters, U.S. Army Vietnam (USARV) under General William C. Westmoreland’s command. In 1965, the history office was organized at Headquarters, U.S. Army Vietnam (USARV). MHDs were deployed across Vietnam, conducting combat after action interviews, and collecting documents. This study focuses on U.S. Army historical programs during combat operations from World War I to the Vietnam War with particular attention on the combat historians, those individuals deployed to a theater of war with the mission of documenting the actions of that theater for current and future historical use.

A Dignified Life - Revised and...

MPH David Troxel, MSW Virginia Bell

More than 5 million Americans are currently living with Alzheimer's disease or a related form of dementia. By the year 2030, experts estimate that as many as 66 million people will be faced with this life-altering disease. These statistics impact millions of caregivers. Compared with all types of caregivers, those who assist someone with dementia experience the highest levels of burnout, depression, poor health, and premature death. A Dignified Life, Revised and Expanded offers hope and help. 
 
 
 
Ten years ago, the first edition of A Dignified Life changed the way the caregiving community approached Alzheimer's disease by showing caregivers how to act as a Best Friend to the person. Firmly grounded in the latest knowledge about dementia, this expanded edition offers a wealth of tips and advice. 
 
 
 
While medical treatment of the disease hasn't changed, our understanding and awareness of treating people in a more caring way has changed. With no cure, respectful care by effective and compassionate care partners is the only real "treatment" available. The Best Friends Approach is successful because it sustains people's connection to their world, their loved ones, and themselves. A Dignified Life shows how to bring dignity, meaning, and peace of mind to the lives of both those who have Alzheimer's and dementia and those who care for them.
