Sinossi

"Youth and Stress" offers a comprehensive exploration of the mounting pressures facing today's young people, examining the intricate relationship between academic demands, social media influence, and mental health challenges.Drawing from extensive research in adolescent psychology and neuroscience, the book reveals alarming statistics, including that 70% of teens identify anxiety and depression as major concerns among their peers, while 45% of high school students experience stress-related symptoms due to academic pressures.The book systematically analyzes three key spheres of youth stress: academic performance pressure, digitally-amplified social expectations, and declining mental health indicators. Through a blend of scientific research and real-world case studies, it explains how standardized testing, college admissions competition, and social media-driven perfectionism create a perfect storm of stress factors during crucial developmental stages.The text particularly shines in its approach to connecting psychological theory with practical applications, offering structured exercises and evidence-based coping strategies that readers can implement immediately. What sets this book apart is its balanced perspective and inclusive approach, addressing diverse populations and varying socioeconomic contexts while providing specific guidance for both young people and their support systems.Each chapter progressively builds understanding, moving from theoretical foundations to practical solutions, including assessment tools for identifying stress triggers and communication strategies for difficult conversations. The book concludes with a forward-looking examination of systemic solutions and successful intervention models, making it an invaluable resource for anyone concerned with youth well-being in today's challenging environment.

American Visions - The United...

Edward L. Ayers

A revealing history of the formative period when voices of dissent and innovation defied power and created visions of America still resonant today. 
 
 
 
The early decades of the nineteenth century saw the expansion of slavery, Native dispossession, and wars with Canada and Mexico. Mass immigration and powerful religious movements sent tremors through American society. But even as the powerful defended the status quo, others defied it: voices from the margins moved the center; eccentric visions altered the accepted wisdom, and acts of empathy questioned self-interest. Edward L. Ayers’s rich history examines the visions that moved Frederick Douglass, Margaret Fuller, the Native American activist William Apess, and others to challenge entrenched practices and beliefs. 
 
 
 
Through decades of award-winning scholarship on the Civil War, Edward L. Ayers has himself ventured beyond the interpretative status quo to recover the range of possibilities embedded in the past as it was lived. Here he turns that distinctive historical sensibility to a period when bold visionaries and critics built vigorous traditions of dissent and innovation into the foundation of the nation. Those traditions remain alive for us today.

Laws of Ancient World Vol 1:...

Andreas Asimis

Despite all of the imperfections present throughout Ancient Mesopotamian legislation, these laws of the ancient world are a priceless treasure influencing the history of judicial science.
In ancient Mesopotamia, a written set of laws adopted by a ruler or his kingdom was quickly established as the foundational governing document. The emergence of royal decrees came about due to the special conditions surrounding the establishment and development of multiple federations due to war, coups, conquests, the formation of territorial and political treaties, the rise or fall in power of a particular ruler, or the rising supremacy of one ethnic group or another. 
Contents:
Chapter 1. Sources of Law: Mesopotamia
Chapter 2. Code of Ur-Nammu (2100-2050 BC)
Chapter 3. Code of Lipit-Ishtar (c.1870-1860 BC)
Chapter 4. Code of Hammurabi
Chapter 5. Judicial Precedent: The murder case in Nippur

Europe and Russia on the Balkan...

Giorgio Fruscione

The war in Ukraine has taken its toll on the stability of the Balkans by reshuffling regional geopolitics and reviving diplomatic competition between the West and Russia. Since the summer of 2022, growing tensions between Kosovo and Serbia have raised concerns about a possible Russian involvement and pushed the European Union to react promptly. By brokering a new normalisation agreement, the West seeks to prevent new hotbeds in Europe and push Russia one step back from the Balkans. Meanwhile, the Russian invasion of Ukraine has given new momentum to the integration process of candidate states, making EU membership a tangible goal rather than an unattainable dream.
Will the EU be able to stabilise the Balkans? Will Russia continue to exert its influence in the region? Are Belgrade and Pristina on the eve of a new phase in the normalisation process?

Teaching to Live - Black...

Almeda M. Wright

Teaching to Live: Black Religion, Activist-Educators, and Radical Social Change interrogates the stories of African American activist-educators whose faith convictions inspired them to educate in radical and transformative ways. Almeda M. Wright explores the connections between religion, education, and struggles for freedom within twentieth-century African American communities by telling the stories of key African American teachers. 
 
 
 
Wright brings together the lives and work of three related subgroups of activist-educators: those who worked in public or secular education but were religiously inspired; radical scholars who transformed the ways that Black religion and Black religious life are studied and valued; and radical religious educators, or those educators who were involved more formally with the religious formation of Black people but who regarded this work of spiritual development as part of the struggle for freedom and liberation of all people. 
 
 
 
The rich and complex narratives of these educators show how religion, education, and radical social change can intersect. This book invites listeners to continue exploring how these concepts will evolve for future generations of activist-educators.
