Beschreibung

Sport Inclusion Struggles examines the experiences of LGBTQ athletes, navigating the pressures of revealing their identities in competitive sports. The book highlights the psychological impact of concealing one's identity, as many athletes face societal pressures and systemic discrimination. A key aspect explored is the prevalence of homophobia and transphobia within sports, which affects athletes' mental health and career trajectories.

 
The book progresses by first introducing core concepts and the history of LGBTQ rights in sports. Second, it presents personal narratives and case studies to illustrate challenges across different sports, covering interactions with teammates, coaches, and fans. Finally, it examines strategies for promoting inclusion, such as policy changes and allyship programs.

 
The analysis includes empirical studies, athlete interviews, and policy analyses, providing a comprehensive understanding of the issues and offering tangible steps toward creating more inclusive sporting environments. What sets this book apart is its intersectional approach, recognizing the diverse backgrounds of LGBTQ athletes shaped by race, gender, and class. It critically analyzes performative allyship, distinguishing between genuine support and superficial gestures. Ultimately, Sport Inclusion Struggles serves as both an informative resource and a call to action for promoting equity in sports.

Combat Trauma - A Personal Look...

James D Johnson

“In this incredibly courageous expose,” Vietnam veterans discuss the long-lasting effects of PTSD and their strategies for coping (Publishers Weekly). Though much has been written about the short-term experience of combat trauma, very few resources discuss how that trauma continues to impact individuals into later life. In this volume, retired Army Chaplain James D. Johnson relates how fifteen Vietnam veterans have been affected by the terror they experienced four decades ago, and how it continues to affect them today.   With candor and vivid detail, they reveal how their combat trauma symptoms still infect their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors on a daily basis. Their stories offer valuable insight for today’s soldiers returning from battle, as well as for their loved ones. The experiences shared here can help them address and cope with the ongoing challenges of PTSD.   Those who still carry these wounds will find that they are not alone, and that there are ways of dealing with the horror, no matter how long ago it took place.

Judith Pintar, David Hopping

Information Science: The Basics provides an accessible introduction to the multifaceted field of Information Science (IS). 
 
 
 
Inviting listeners to explore a modern field of study with deep historical foundations, the book begins by considering the complexities of the term "information" and the information life cycle from classification to preservation. Each chapter examines a different area within IS, surveying its history, technologies, and practices with a critical eye. This interdisciplinary field incorporates a wide range of approaches which it shares with humanities, social science, and technology fields. What makes IS unique is its emphasis on the connections between information, technology, and society. The need to share information more effectively in response to social, environmental, and biomedical challenges has never been so urgent; the volume discusses the risks as well as benefits that come with the emerging technologies that make it possible. The book also explores how IS, with its long-standing commitment to intellectual freedom and digital inclusion, and its keen attention to the protection of privacy, data ethics, and algorithmic transparency, can contribute to the creation of a more open and equitable society.
