DOES YOUR PARTNER . . .
* have sudden outbursts of anger or rage?
* become jealous without reason?
* prevent you from seeing friends and family?
* deny you access to family assets such as bank accounts, credit cards, or the car?
* control all finances and force you to account for what you spend?
* insult you or call you derogatory names?
* humiliate you in front of your children?
* turn minor incidents into major arguments?
If you or someone you know can answer "yes" to the questions above, chances are you are suffering from nonphysical battering--controlling, tyrannical behavior that is just as damaging to a woman's self-esteem as a broken bone or a black eye. An experienced counselor who works with abused women, Mary Susan Miller breaks the silence that surrounds this devastating form of domestic violence. She identifies the many types of nonphysical abuse verbal, emotional, psychological, social, and economic--and explores why this outrageous treatment of women continues unabated in our society.
Dr. Miller also shares the stories of many survivors who have escaped their abusive relationships. Their experiences--with law enforcement, the legal system, and the community itself--can help prepare any woman for the decision of whether to stay or leave the relationship. And if she decides to go, Dr. Miller offers sound guidelines on how to protect herself and her children, since a woman's decision to leave is usually the time she is in the most danger from her abuser.
Finally, Dr. Miller inspires hope: You can break free of the nightmare of nonphysical battering and heal, once again engaging in a life of integrity, dignity, and peace..

David M. Friedman's A Mind of Its Own is a cultural examination of the penis, from ancient Sumer to the present Friedman convincingly suggests that humankind's various and contradictory attitudes toward the penis have been instrumental in mapping the course of both Western civilization and world history.

Friedman begins with pagan attitudes: ancient Greeks considered the penis a measure of a man's proximity to "divine power," while the Romans, whose generals were known to promote soldiers based on penis size, saw it as an indicator of earthly strength. Thanks to the spread of Christianity, the "sacred staff became the demon rod"--a fearful manifestation of the devil. Theology gave way, grudgingly, to science. In the Renaissance, anatomical discoveries allowed for the possibility that this "agent of death" was, in fact, only a "blameless instrument of reproduction." Subsequent chapters discuss the penis's role as a racial yardstick; its "defining role in human personality" as asserted by Freud; its politicization; and finally, through the likes of Viagra, its objectification as a "thing ... impervious to religious teachings, psychological insights, racial stereotypes and feminist criticism."

Friedman's study of what he calls the "symbolic muscle" is filled with fascinating side trips (castration cults, ancient graffiti, the anti-masturbation "semen-retention movement," aphrodisiacs through the ages, and, to modern eyes, risible medical practices with the likes of monkey glands), as well as a rich cast of characters (Leonardo da Vinci, John Kellogg of cornflake fame, Kate Millet, Clarence Thomas, and Walt Whitman). The book is informal, but well researched (and documented), entertaining but not cute, wide-ranging but not sketchy, and simultaneously irreverent and respectful. --H. O'Billovitch.

Stepping effortlessly from myth to cutting-edge science, Mutants gives a brilliant narrative account of our genetic code and the captivating people whose bodies have revealed it—a French convent girl who found herself changing sex at puberty; children who, echoing Homer’s Cyclops, are born with a single eye in the middle of their foreheads; a village of long-lived Croatian dwarves; one family, whose bodies were entirely covered with hair, was kept at the Burmese royal court for four generations and gave Darwin one of his keenest insights into heredity. This elegant, humane, and engaging book “captures what we know of the development of what makes us human” (Nature)..

Previously published in HC as Dancing With Rose

One journalist’s riveting—and surprisingly hopeful— in-the-trenches view of Alzheimer’s

Nearly five million people in the United States are living with AlzheimerÂ’s. Like many children of AlzheimerÂ’s sufferers, Lauren Kessler, an accomplished journalist, was devastated by the disease that seemed to erase her motherÂ’s identity even before claiming her life. But suppose people with AlzheimerÂ’s are not slates wiped blank. Suppose they experience friendship and loss, romance and jealousy, joy and sorrow? To better understand this debilitating condition, Kessler enlists as a bottom-of-the-rung caregiver at an AlzheimerÂ’s facility and learns lessons that challenge what we think we know about the disease. A compelling, clear-eyed, and emotionally resonant narrative, Finding Life in the Land of AlzheimerÂ’s offers a new optimistic look at what the disease can teach us and a much-needed tonic for those faced with providing care for someone they love..

This comprehensive collection of teacher-tested unit plans, lesson plans, and teaching and assessment tools will save any secondary school physical education teacher invaluable planning and preparation time. Each lesson plan moves toward written goals from the moment students walk onto the floor until the moment they leave. The lessons integrate physical, cognitive, and social skills in a natural sequence, allowing plenty of opportunity for repetition to help students ingest the material, develop competency, and be rewarded with a sense of control.

The CD-ROM that accompanies the text allows you to pull up lessons on the screen, modify them, and print them for your classes. You can then save them for later use. You can also adjust lessons to reflect your own style, pace lessons to meet your classes' needs, and select drills that work best for your students. The result: quality lesson plans that meet the National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE) standards.

Both the book and the CD-ROM contain

• student homework,
• handouts for many of the sports,
• more than 25 performance assessment rubrics,
• quizzes,
• student portfolio checklists, and
• tournament charts.

The performance assessment rubrics provide a way for students, classmates, and teachers to evaluate students' progress based on degrees of accomplishment and experience level. In fact, Complete Physical Education Plans for Grades 7-12 is the only book that contains performance assessment rubrics for secondary students in physical education—and the rubrics are so clear that students can use them to rate each other.

With Complete Physical Education Plans for Grades 7-12, you have everything you need to develop, plan, and assess a program. It allows you to spend less time in your office and more time in the gym and on the field doing what you love to do best. .
