Sinopse

"Voting Landscape" explores the multifaceted history of voting rights and voter turnout in the United States, revealing how policy choices and systemic inequalities have shaped political participation. The book argues that low voter turnout isn't simply apathy, but a consequence of deliberate policies impacting who can vote. For instance, despite constitutional amendments expanding suffrage, disparities persist across different demographics.

 
The book adopts a chronological and thematic approach, starting from the nation's founding to modern challenges like gerrymandering and voter suppression. It highlights how laws and amendments, such as the Voting Rights Act of 1965, aimed to enfranchise excluded groups. However, the book also examines the ongoing debates around election administration, balancing security with voter access.

 
"Voting Landscape" analyzes voter turnout trends, considering factors like voter registration laws and access to polling places. Through historical data and statistical analysis, it uncovers persistent gaps in participation. The book concludes with recommendations for policymakers and citizens to promote a more equitable democracy, making it valuable for anyone invested in the future of U.S. elections and civic engagement.

    The man the New York State Attorney General credited with inspiring her prosecution of Donald Trump — New York Times number one bestselling author Michael Cohen — tells the behind-the-scenes story of what can happen to you — and what really happened to him — when a President who believes himself to be above the law decides to go after his critics . . . . 
     
    When Michael Cohen's secret payoff to porn star Stormy Daniels on behalf of Donald Trump made Cohen look like a liability to the by-then-President of the United States, the end to their decade-long relationship came swiftly — with a knock on the door from the FBI. Soon, Cohen would find himself imprisoned — even though he had plenty of evidence to show he was innocent of most of the charges. 
     
    Meanwhile, with the release of the Steele Dossier, Cohen also found himself battling endless news reports citing the Dossier's claims that he'd had clandestine dealings with Russia — reports that only mounted despite his exoneration by the Mueller Report. 
     
    In a story now being echoed in recent breaking news stories about IRS persecution of Trump foes such as former FBI head James Comey and others, Cohen details — in his inimitable blunt language, with absolutely no holds barred and naming names — his attempt to clear his name and tell the truth about Donald Trump. Chillingly, he also makes clear what happens when you try to speak truth to power, and the power knows no bounds.

    Facing the harrowing task of rebuilding a life in the wake of the Holocaust, many Jewish survivors, community and religious leaders, and Allied soldiers viewed marriage between Jewish women and military personnel as a way to move forward after unspeakable loss. Proponents believed that these unions were more than just a ticket out of war-torn Europe: they would help the Jewish people repopulate after the attempted annihilation of European Jewry. Historian Robin Judd, whose grandmother survived the Holocaust and married an American soldier after liberation, introduces us to the Jewish women who lived through genocide and went on to wed American, Canadian, and British military personnel after the war.

    The Plague explores the profound changes and enduring continuities that shaped European society in the wake of the Black Death and other crises of the 1300s. Through a series of thematic chapters, the book examines the resilience of communities, the evolution of social and economic structures, the persistence of faith, and the seeds of cultural and intellectual transformation. Far from being an age of unmitigated darkness, the fourteenth century emerges as a dynamic period of adaptation, creativity, and the quiet beginnings of the modern world.

    Too often, therapists and other helping professionals feel paralyzed by the fear that they don't know enough about other cultural groups to counsel clients different than themselves. Lambers Fisher sets out to mitigate these fears by providing a framework for professionals to better understand the experiences of cultural groups with whom they are not familiar. 
     
     
     
    With his encouraging and non-shaming approach, Lambers will challenge you to learn more about other cultures, accept what you do not yet know in the process, and utilize strategies that can help you become an increasingly culturally competent professional. Beyond ethnicity, you will explore issues of age, gender, sexuality, religion, acculturation, and social justice, as well as identify opportunities to strengthen your own cultural self-awareness. 
     
     
     
    Applicable for a wide range of professionals—including counselors, religious leaders, occupational therapists, educators, coaches, physical therapists, and nurses—the practical and impactful strategies in this book will allow you to: journal about your cultural competency journey; reduce cultural offenses and repair damaged relationships; avoid ethical dilemmas; build rapport with diverse clients; understand various experiences of diverse people through case examples; and help clients of any culture make meaningful life changes.
