Sinopse

In the annals of human history, slavery stands as a haunting testament to the depths of human cruelty and injustice. "When Slavery Was the Law" delves into the dark recesses of this tragic chapter, exploring the intricate web of factors that perpetuated slavery, the devastating impact it had on countless lives, and the heroic struggles for freedom that ultimately led to its abolition.

Through a comprehensive examination of historical records, personal narratives, and scholarly research, this book sheds light on the complexities of slavery and its profound implications for our understanding of human nature and social justice. It traces the evolution of slavery from its earliest forms to its eventual decline and abolition, examining the economic, social, and political forces that drove the slave trade, the diverse experiences of enslaved people from different cultures and backgrounds, and the indomitable spirit of resistance that fueled countless acts of defiance and rebellion.

"When Slavery Was the Law" delves into the complex interplay between masters and slaves, exploring the psychological toll of oppression and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. By examining the lives of both the enslaved and the enslavers, it offers a deeper understanding of the human condition and the capacity for both great evil and extraordinary resilience.

Furthermore, this book explores the abolitionist movement, the tireless efforts of individuals and organizations dedicated to ending slavery, and the long and arduous struggle for freedom and equality. It highlights the triumphs and setbacks, the sacrifices and the victories, that ultimately led to the downfall of this abhorrent institution.

    Couple Sexuality After 60 -...

    Confronting taboos and misunderstandings about sexuality and aging, Couple Sexuality After 60: Intimate, Pleasurable, and Satisfying motivates couples to embrace sex and sexuality in their sixties, seventies, and eighties. The book busts two extreme myths—that people over sixty cannot and should not be sexual, and that the best way to be sexual is to emphasize eroticism, using sex toys, and "kinky sex." 
     
     
     
    Using a variable, flexible approach to couple sexuality based on the Good Enough Sex (GES) model, this book places the essence of sexuality in pleasure-oriented touching, not individual sex performance. Barry and Emily McCarthy introduce a new sexual mantra of "desire/pleasure/eroticism/satisfaction" with the goal of presenting a healthy model of sexuality to replace the traditional double standard that couples learn in young adulthood. Specific chapters focus on important areas like coming to terms with the new normal, female–male sexual equity, satisfaction being about more than intercourse and orgasm, valuing synchronous and asynchronous sexuality, psychobiosocial approaches to sexuality, and more. 
     
     
     
    In addition to aging heterosexual couples, single individuals and queer couples will find this book interesting. Additionally, this is a must-listen for sexual health clinicians and sex therapists with clients over the age of sixty.
