Beschreibung

"Child Marriage Harms" presents a compelling examination of one of today's most pressing human rights issues: the global practice of underage marriage and its devastating impact on millions of young lives. The book masterfully weaves together comprehensive research, demographic data, and personal narratives to demonstrate how this practice intersects with cultural traditions, economic pressures, and legal frameworks worldwide.

 
Through extensive field research across multiple continents, it reveals shocking statistics while humanizing the issue through individual stories of those affected by early marriage. The book progresses systematically through three main sections, beginning with a global context and historical perspective, moving into detailed regional case studies, and concluding with practical intervention strategies.

 
It presents compelling evidence showing how child marriage perpetuates cycles of poverty, limits educational opportunities, and leads to severe health complications, particularly for young girls. The research draws from multiple disciplines, including public health studies, economic research, and human rights reports, creating a holistic understanding of the issue's complexity.

 
What sets this work apart is its balanced approach to addressing culturally sensitive issues while maintaining a firm stance against harmful practices. While acknowledging various cultural perspectives, the book argues that child marriage represents a fundamental human rights violation that demands immediate action. It provides practical frameworks for intervention and policy recommendations, making it an invaluable resource for policymakers, social workers, and human rights advocates working to end this practice.

 
The author's clear, empirical writing style ensures accessibility while maintaining scholarly rigor, making complex information digestible for both professionals and general readers interested in social justice.

How to Lose Yourself - An...

The Buddha and His Followers

Inviting new translations of classical Buddhist texts about why the self is an illusion—and why giving it up can free us from suffering 
 
 
 
From self-realization and self-promotion to self-help and the selfie, the modern world encourages us to be self-obsessed. We are even told that finding ourselves is the key to happiness. Better to lose yourself! More than 2,500 years ago, the Buddha argued that the self is an illusion—and that our belief in it is the cause of most, if not all, of our suffering. How to Lose Yourself presents lively, accessible, and expert new translations of ancient Buddhist writings about the central, unique, and powerful Buddhist teaching of "no-self." 
 
 
 
Drawn from three important Buddhist traditions, these essential Indian, Tibetan, and Chinese writings provide a rich sampling of the ways Buddhist philosophers have understood the idea that we are selfless persons—and why this insight is so therapeutic. When we let go of the self, we are awakened to the presence of all things as they truly are, and we let go of the anxiety, fear, greed, and hatred that are the source of all suffering.

Josh Hunter

Obedience training for a bully…

At school, he’s still the same homophobic bully he’s always been. So after school, he has to make it up to me.

DESCRIPTION:
My Blue Book of Grammar is a course that has been conceptualized and designed keeping in mind the increasingly dynamic role of the English language in today’s world. Especially in our country, where English serves as the lingua franca, a grammar course has to offer not only an exposition of the pedagogy but also the exhibition of the utility of that pedagogy. The aim of a grammar series should be to encourage the development of competency amongst learners, even though their proficiency levels may vary. While the level of exposure to English of all learners may be different, a grammar series should aid in the development of a certain level of confidence amongst the learners, with the end result being that they are able to converse without hesitation in English.

Belonging - The Key to...

Anonym

There's never been more discussion around diversity and inclusion in the workplace. From gender pay gaps to the #MeToo movement, it seems that every organization has finally recognized that change needs to happen. 
 
 
 
Despite this, true progress towards more inclusive workspaces has been excruciatingly slow and, in some cases, has grinded to a halt. Following extensive research and interviews at over 200 international businesses, Kathryn Jacob, Sue Unerman, and Mark Edwards have discovered the major problem that is holding back the move towards greater diversity: where are all the men? 
 
 
 
Most men are not engaged with D&I initiatives in the workplace—at one extreme they may be feeling actively hostile and threatened by the changing cultural landscape. But others may be unmotivated to change—recognizing the abstract benefits of diversity but not realizing what's in it for them. Built upon this seemingly counterintuitive approach of bringing men into the conversation, Belonging is an accessible and comprehensive guide to achieving diversity that lasts.

Doing It All - The Social Power...

Ruby Russell

A feminist exploration of single motherhood and a passionate call to reclaim the power of mothering 
 
 
 
In the United States, one child in five is raised by a single mother. Yet the single mom is still cast as victim or welfare queen, sexually irresponsible or too independent for her own (or her children's) good. 
 
 
 
In Doing It All, journalist and single mother Ruby Russell tells a different story, of single mothering not defined by loss by whole and powerful in its own right. She finds narratives of liberation in Victorian brothels and postwar British slums, in Black feminist theory and the grassroots activism of women fighting for welfare rights. 
 
 
 
Doing It All is a personal quest for empowerment, a fierce critique of the systems that leave single moms marginalized and exhausted, and a call to reclaim mothering as the life force of sustainable, connected, and radically responsible communities.
