  Rethinking Suicide - Why...

  An examination of how suicide prevention efforts largely fail due to the mistaken assumption that greater mental health awareness is the key to saving lives. 
   
   
   
  Rethinking Suicide is a critical examination of what we think we know about suicide, with particular focus on the assumed role of mental illness. Craig J. Bryan, a leading expert on suicide prevention, argues that most prevention efforts have failed because they disproportionately emphasize mental health-focused solutions such as access to treatment and crisis services. Instead of classifying suicide as a mental health issue, careful analysis of research findings suggest it should instead be seen as a highly complex problem with many risk factors—from personal decision-making styles, to the availability of lethal means, to financial uncertainty. As such suicide rates will not be curtailed by conventional solution-oriented thinking; rather, we need process-based thinking that may, in some cases, defy or contradict many of our long-held assumptions about suicide. Rethinking Suicide interweaves the author's firsthand experiences with explanations of scientific findings to reveal the limitations of widely-used practices and to introduce new perspectives that may trigger a paradigm shift in how we understand and prevent suicide.

  The Role of Women in Ancient...

  Women in Ancient Egypt held a unique and significant position within the broader social and cultural framework of their civilization. Unlike in many ancient societies, Egyptian women enjoyed a considerable amount of rights and freedoms, especially when compared to their contemporaries in other parts of the world. The role of women in Egyptian society was largely defined by a combination of legal rights, religious significance, and familial responsibilities, with many women being able to exercise substantial influence in both public and private spheres. 
  Socially, women in Ancient Egypt were often portrayed as equals to men, and their contributions to society were highly valued. While men generally dominated the spheres of politics, military, and high-ranking religious offices, women were not excluded from positions of authority, especially within the royal family and the religious hierarchy. For example, queens, priestesses, and high-ranking women could wield political power and influence in matters of state and governance. However, their roles were primarily centered around the family and domestic life. Marriage and motherhood were central to a woman’s identity, and women were expected to oversee the household and care for children. 
  In terms of legal rights, women in Ancient Egypt were granted many protections and privileges. They had the ability to own property, enter into contracts, and even initiate divorce if necessary. This level of autonomy was relatively rare in the ancient world, where women were often considered the property of their fathers or husbands. Egyptian women also had the right to inherit property, and they could pass on property to their children, ensuring that their lineage could maintain wealth and status. These legal rights enabled women to participate in economic transactions, manage estates, and even become wealthy landowners in some cases.
