Sinossi

Woman's Work in America provides an illuminating exploration of the pivotal roles that women have played in various sectors of American society. Through a compilation of essays, historical accounts, and sociological analyses, this volume offers a comprehensive overview of women's contributions, ranging from domestic labor to professional fields. Its literary style is both scholarly and engaging, weaving personal narratives with broader societal trends, highlighting women's resilience, ingenuity, and the socio-cultural barriers they navigated. Set against the backdrop of shifting gender norms and evolving societal expectations, the work challenges traditional notions of labor and gender roles in the American context. The collection is curated by various authors, each providing unique insights shaped by their individual backgrounds, research interests, and personal experiences. The contributors include historians, sociologists, and feminists who recognize the need to acknowledge the often-overlooked contributions of women throughout American history. Their collective commitment to amplifying women's voices and experiences stems from a desire to address historical omissions and promote gender equity in both academic discourse and public consciousness. This book is highly recommended for scholars, students, and general readers interested in understanding the intricate tapestry of women's contributions to American society. It serves not only as an academic resource but also as a powerful reminder of the ongoing struggle for recognition and equality, making it a crucial read for anyone invested in feminist studies or social history.

    An introduction to EMDR, a proven trauma therapy with the power to heal, cowritten by a world-renowned therapist and a patient who experienced transformative relief through EMDR therapy.  Trauma is a part of life.  You or someone you care about has probably experienced trauma, whether “big-T” trauma, such as emotional, physical, or sexual abuse or the more common but no less significant “little-t” trauma that can result from divorce, job loss, painful childhood experiences, or any situation where you felt worthless, afraid, or powerless. Untreated trauma can lead to long lasting effects such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, and difficulties maintaining intimate relationships.   But the good news is that we can heal—and it doesn’t have to take a lifetime. EMDR (which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a unique type of psychotherapy proven to help people recover from trauma and improve the quality of their lives.    Cowritten by a patient who experienced transformative relief from trauma through EMDR therapy, and a world-renowned psychologist who explains exactly how and why EMDR works, Every Memory Deserves Respect provides clear information while offering inspiration and hope.    Through compelling science and personal stories we learn how trauma is stored in the brain and body, continuing to cause pain and suffering, and how EMDR frees us by repatterning our thinking and emotional reactions. It explains why talk therapy has only a limited impact on trauma recovery, describes what to expect from gentle and targeted EMDR therapy, and offers guidance on how to find a therapist who is just right for you.

    "Common Ground is accessible to teachers at all levels yet firmly rooted in current questions of second language acquisition (SLA). One of its primary strengths is the authors themselves, both of whom are accomplished language teachers who understand the challenges and opportunities in communication-focused language teaching. Their experience, expertise, insight, and enthusiasm for language teaching translate into a book that is refreshingly practical for teachers, especially teachers who are striving to break from traditional drills commonly presented in textbooks. I hope this book finds its way into the hands of every language teacher who is looking for concrete examples of how SLA principles meet the realities of the classroom." —Stacey Margarita Johnson, Vanderbilt University
