Sinopsis

Midwives in History explores the often-overlooked contributions of midwives to childbirth practices across cultures and time. This book rediscovers the history of midwifery, highlighting its traditions and impact on women's health. It examines how midwives, essential figures in reproductive healthcare, have sometimes been marginalized by dominant medical systems, even though their contributions to safe childbirth and women's empowerment are undeniable.

 
Did you know that the evolution of midwifery training has gone through apprenticeship models, formal midwifery schools, and medical licensing impacts? The book progresses by first introducing the foundational concepts of midwifery, then exploring the formalization of midwifery training over the centuries. It examines diverse cultural childbirth practices, highlighting unique rituals and support systems.

 
Through primary historical texts and interdisciplinary research, Midwives in History adopts a global approach that balances academic rigor with narrative storytelling. The book culminates with an analysis of debates surrounding integrating midwives into modern healthcare systems and the implications for women’s reproductive autonomy.

  • Hope Rising - How Christians Can End Extreme Poverty in This Generation - cover

    Hope Rising - How Christians Can...

    Extreme poverty does not have to exist. When Christians accept that fact and start living accordingly, we will find the solution is already within our reach. 
    Worldwide, 18,000 children die from preventable causes every day. If that statistic leaves you feeling powerless, you are not alone—but you are wrong. If a false sense of powerlessness has lulled you into apathy, it’s time to shake off the grogginess of low expectations and get to work. We can make this world a place where kids do not die from easily preventable diseases. 
    In Hope Rising, Scott Todd of Compassion International pens a galvanizing, comprehensive vision of the movement that will eradicate extreme global poverty through transformative Christian generosity—and do it within our lifetime. Todd provides riveting evidence to show that we are much closer to that goal than you might think. 
    According to Todd, we live in an historic moment, and chances are you are already part of it. The gospel is already reshaping lives from thoughtless consumption to informed concern. Twenty-first-century Christians are generating multi-continent grassroots movements through communications and travel. Public and private sectors are working together.  It’s a whole new era of philanthropy, compassion, and justice aimed at eradicating the pandemic of extreme global poverty. 
    This is a future we have the God-given power to create. This is the history we hope to write. 
    As Todd envisions, “The twenty-first-century Christians embraced the entirety of their gospel—the truths it proclaims and the muscles it demands—with a new integrity. They did not deteriorate into humanist liberalism, as some had feared. Nor did they pile works on top of Grace…They simply determined that their world did not need to have children dying of preventable causes such as dirty water.”

    Have you ever thought that someone in your life currently or someone you were involved with in the past is a narcissist? 
    Perhaps you think that you may be living with one. You, or someone you know, could even have horrific stories to tell of Machiavellian encounters with your “loved one” that just wouldn't stop. You may think that you are being treated like an “object” used for their every desire or used like you are a slave and you just can't understand why. Some poor souls who believe they have been victims of narcissism tell of going through hell, then ending up divorced and millions of dollars in debt. Or, you are positive your boss is a narcissist and you need to figure out how to deal with it or you are going to “go crazy” or resign before you do. Maybe people have accused you of being a narcissist and you think this accusation is just a nasty way of telling you they think you are selfish. Of course, you are better than most everyone else. Why can't the world just accept it? 
    Why won't everybody do what you tell them to do? They know you are always right! Or have you ever feared that because you have so many “broken” relationships that you are indeed a narcissist? What is narcissism anyway? Is it really a mental problem that some people have or is it just a “bad personality type”? If it is a mental condition, how do you get it? Is it contagious? Is it “terminal'? Can it be treated with drugs? Why in the world would anybody call the love-of-self narcissistic? I heard that a certain amount of narcissism is healthy and without having it, you are going to get trampled on in life. Is this true? Where did this term come from? 
    Once you have narcissism, if it is real, can anybody really do anything about it? Can a doctor help my spouse or my boss or not? If so, what kind of doctor?

    The Gift of Anxiety - Harnessing...

    Your anxiety has an important message for you. Are you listening?
     
    The mistake most people make with anxiety is trying everything in their power to get rid of it. They may try meditation and breathwork, medication or therapy. The aim is almost always the same: to get rid of anxiety because “anxiety is the problem.”
     
    But anxiety is not the problem.
     
    In fact, anxiety is a necessary and useful emotional response that has played a critical role in our survival for millions of years. Unfortunately, most of us have not been taught what to do with anxiety when it becomes loud and intrusive. So we become afraid of it and view anxiety as a problem we want to solve once and for all.
     
    But getting rid of anxiety is impossible because it’s a natural emotional response. And trying to get rid of it only causes more anxiety because the more we fear anxiety, the more we feel it, until we become anxious about being anxious.
     
    Anxiety comes to use when it has an important message. It is our internal alarm system for potential threats in life. It is designed to keep you safe and alert you to areas of your life that need attention. But when you treat anxiety like it is the problem without paying attention to its message for you, the deeper problems remain, and anxiety only gets louder.
     
    In The Gift of Anxiety, clinical psychologist Diante Fuchs offers a new way to respond to anxiety. Sharing the unique EASE Method for working with anxiety, the book offers a powerful, calm approach that has helped hundreds of people transform their relationship with anxiety and with themselves. With this step-by-step guidance anyone can learn to how to stop fighting anxiety, listen to it, and use it as the gift it truly is.
     
    This book is specifically designed to help those suffering from anxiety find peace one simple step at a time.
