Sinopsis

Education Completion Gaps examines the significant educational disparities affecting LGBTQ students, revealing lower high school and college completion rates compared to their non-LGBTQ peers. The book investigates how factors like social stigma, discrimination, and inadequate institutional support contribute to increased dropout rates and hinder college enrollment and graduation. Notably, LGBTQ students facing bullying and harassment are at higher risk of dropping out, while supportive policies like Gay-Straight Alliances can improve outcomes. 

 
The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach, drawing from education, sociology, and psychology to explore the complexities of educational equity. It begins by outlining the historical context of discrimination before analyzing current research on dropout rates and college enrollment trends. The book then progresses through an examination of risk factors, a review of institutional policies, and a comparative analysis of college outcomes. 

 
This work is particularly valuable due to its exploration of intersectionality, highlighting how race, class, and gender combine to exacerbate educational disparities within the LGBTQ community. By synthesizing quantitative data from national surveys with qualitative insights from LGBTQ students and educators, the book offers a comprehensive framework for fostering more inclusive and supportive educational environments.

    On liberty

    In the tract on Liberty, Mill is advocating the rights of the individual as against Society at the very opening of an era that was rapidly coming to the conclusion that the individual had no absolute rights against Society. The eighteenth century view is that individuals existed first, each with their own special claims and responsibilities: that they deliberately formed a Social State, either by a contract or otherwise, and that then finally they limited their own action out of regard for the interests of the social organism thus arbitrarily produced. This is hardly the view of the nineteenth century. It is possible that logically the individual is prior to the State; historically and in the order of Nature, the State is prior to the individual. In other words, such rights as every single personality possesses in a modern world do not belong to him by an original ordinance of Nature, but are slowly acquired in the growth and development of the social state.

    Glasgow: A New History

    Scotland's largest city has always been one of the most vibrant, varied and fascinating places in the country.
    This new history of Glasgow begins with the river, for the Clyde made the city flourish. From prehistory to the Romans, to Mungo and the kingdom of Strathclyde, it's a rich, quirky and moving story that remembers the foundation of the burgh by the bishops and moves rapidly to the Union of 1707, when Edinburgh lost a parliament and Glasgow gained access to an empire and business boomed.
    Immigrants began to arrive: Highlanders, Irish families fleeing the famine, Jews fleeing persecution and lately Asians who transformed tastes. Britain's favourite dish, chicken tikka masala, was invented in the city. Football, architecture, heavy industry, politics and a distinctive sense of humour are all celebrated. Glasgow has never hesitated to reinvent itself – because its greatest resource has always been its people.
    They belong to Glasgow and Glasgow belongs to them. This is their story.

    Stories accompany us through life from birth to death. But they do not merely entertain, inform, or distress us—they show us what counts as right or wrong and teach us who we are and who we can imagine being. Stories connect people, but they can also disconnect, creating boundaries between people and justifying violence. In Letting Stories Breathe, Arthur W. Frank grapples with this fundamental aspect of our lives, offering both a theory of how stories shape us and a useful method for analyzing them. Along the way he also tells stories: from folktales to research interviews to remembrances. Frank’s unique approach uses literary concepts to ask social scientific questions: how do stories make life good and when do they endanger it? Going beyond theory, he presents a thorough introduction to dialogical narrative analysis, analyzing modes of interpretation, providing specific questions to start analysis, and describing different forms analysis can take. Building on his renowned work exploring the relationship between narrative and illness, Letting Stories Breathe expands Frank’s horizons further, offering a compelling perspective on how stories affect human lives.
