Synopsis

'Honor Killing Practices' presents a comprehensive examination of honor-based violence as a critical human rights issue, exploring how these deadly practices persist in modern society despite global advancement. The book navigates the complex intersection of cultural traditions, legal frameworks, and human rights, offering both scholarly analysis and practical solutions for addressing this challenging social phenomenon.

 
Drawing from extensive field research across multiple continents, the work reveals how honor killings have evolved from tribal customs to contemporary manifestations, supported by both quantitative data and compelling case studies. The book's unique strength lies in its interdisciplinary approach, connecting legal studies, anthropology, and gender studies to provide a holistic understanding of the issue.

 
Through systematic exploration of sociocultural foundations, legal responses, and prevention strategies, readers gain insight into how these practices become embedded in community structures and why they resist change. The book progresses logically from foundational concepts to practical applications, making it valuable for both academics and practitioners. It combines statistical analysis with firsthand accounts from law enforcement and social workers, while addressing current debates about cultural relativism versus universal human rights.

 
Most importantly, it offers evidence-based frameworks for policy development and community intervention, providing essential tools for professionals working to combat gender-based violence and promote sustainable social change.

    The Night Has Its Own Darkness is a chorus of women’s voices - remembered, imagined, and reborn. Across generations and continents, they rise from silence to speak their truths: of love and loss, of resistance and longing, of faith, exile, and survival. 
     Among them are the iconic and the forgotten, women we thought we knew, now revealing who they truly were, and others whose names were never spoken aloud. 
     Each voice burns like a candle in the dark, passing its flame to the next, forming a fragile, luminous chain of remembrance that refuses to fade. 
    Written by J. M. Niv and narrated with the extraordinary presence by Erika Calvert, this audiobook becomes more than a reading, it is an act of listening, a haunting dialogue between past and present. 
     Every voice carries the breath of those who came before, every pause holds the weight of what was never said.Moving between history and memory, between the living and the lost, The Night Has Its Own Darkness invites the listener to bear witness, to stand in the quiet and hear the light.

    The optimal state for learning is one of safety, connection, motivation, and engagement. 
     
     
     
    Every student and teacher is different, but there's one thing each has in common: a responsive nervous system ready for action. Whether it's a fight breaking out on the playground, a difficult conversation with a parent, or an impromptu fire drill, understanding how the nervous system responds can help keep teachers and students on an even keel. 
     
     
     
    Polyvagal Theory (PVT) has had a tremendous impact on the mental health field, shedding light on how the nervous system predictably moves between different states in response to changing situations. School consultant Debra Em Wilson introduces PVT to educators and shows how using PVT-guided strategies can help create optimal learning environments. When school staff understand the role of the nervous system in learning, they can better help students develop the skills leading to increased resilience, adaptability, and flexibility: essential qualities for social, emotional, and academic success.

    Rooted in humorous stories distilled with bits of sagely honest advice, The Journey goes beyond the well-chronicled college admissions madness and cuts to the core of parental angst with concrete suggestions for preparing children for a competitive and rapidly changing world. 
     
    Young people face an increasing medley of challenges as they pursue higher education—rising tuition costs, daunting prospective student debt, and a talented and competitive applicant pool. After a decade of preparing students for the ever more difficult admissions process, college counselor Greg Kaplan wishes parents would stop thinking, “What should I do to get my kid into a good college?” and instead ask: “How can I best prepare my child for what comes next?” Having practiced law and worked in investment banking early in his career before pivoting to working with students, parents, and educators, Kaplan knows what the world—and its population of college admissions officers—is looking for in today’s youth and tomorrow's leaders: Grit. Leadership. Passion. 
     
    Emphasizing these fundamental tenets of successful adulthood, The Journey paints a realistic picture of the lack of preparedness among today's youth.  
     
    Using stories of parents and students who have struggled and succeeded, Kaplan pushes students to consider: What do you want to get out of your college and work career? How can you jumpstart your journey into the real world? He asks parents: Are you preparing your children to attain a life of health, happiness, and financial independence?

    “In this incredibly courageous expose,” Vietnam veterans discuss the long-lasting effects of PTSD and their strategies for coping (Publishers Weekly). Though much has been written about the short-term experience of combat trauma, very few resources discuss how that trauma continues to impact individuals into later life. In this volume, retired Army Chaplain James D. Johnson relates how fifteen Vietnam veterans have been affected by the terror they experienced four decades ago, and how it continues to affect them today.   With candor and vivid detail, they reveal how their combat trauma symptoms still infect their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors on a daily basis. Their stories offer valuable insight for today’s soldiers returning from battle, as well as for their loved ones. The experiences shared here can help them address and cope with the ongoing challenges of PTSD.   Those who still carry these wounds will find that they are not alone, and that there are ways of dealing with the horror, no matter how long ago it took place.
