Beschreibung

Informed by “recognized Civil War . . . experts”, this pictorial is “a detailed look at the soldiers who served with the Union and Confederate Armies.” (Jennifer Locke Jones, Chair and Curator, Division of Armed Forces History, Smithsonian National Museum of American History)   In the world of historical painting, Don Troiani stands alone, universally acclaimed for the accuracy, drama, and sensitivity of his depictions of America’s past. His images, both stirring and informative, define the view Americans have of the epochal Civil War.   In this new collection of Troiani artworks, ten years in the making, Troiani teams his signature large format battle paintings with detailed paintings of both Union and Confederate soldiers along with over three hundred photographs of uniforms, equipment, and artifacts from the nation’s most respected museum and private collections to give a full picture of the life of the Civil War soldier. Civil War uniform and equipment experts Earl J. Coates and Michael McAfee have contributed accompanying text. Includes fifty paintings and over three-hundred photographs.

    A harrowing history of a grim chapter in politics and science, in which groups of influential thinkers shaped global policy with the aim of determining who had the right to have children—and who was worthy of life. 
     
     
     
    For the last two centuries, groups of influential men have, in the professed interest of fiscal responsibility, crime reduction, and outright racism, attempted to control who was allowed to bear children. Their efforts, "eugenics," characterize a movement that over the last century swept across the world—from the US to Brazil, Japan, India, Australia, and beyond—in the form of marriage restrictions, asylum detention, and sterilization campaigns affected millions. German physicians and scientists adopted and then heightened these eugenics practices beginning in 1939, starving or executing those they deemed "life unworthy of life." 
     
     
     
    But well after the liberation of Nazi deathcamps, health care workers and even the US government pursued policies worldwide with the express purpose of limiting the reproduction of poor non-whites. The Shortest History of Eugenics takes us back to the founding principles of the movement, revealing how an idea that began in cattle breeding took such an insidious turn—and how it lingers in rhetoric and policy today.

    Emotional abuse in intimate relationships is a serious issue because it is motivated by power and control rather than respect and love. They say that emotional abuse is the foundation or umbrella for all types of abuse, including physical and sexual abuse. Although emotional, psychological, and financial abuse is not illegal, it is a form of domestic violence that can lead to criminal abuse.  
    This book focuses on the emotional abuse experienced by victims who are women in a marriage or cohabiting relationship. This book aims to understand the dynamics within these relationships and the victimization process that occurs throughout these relationships. The book concludes with several recommendations for emotional abuse victims' healing.
