Part Ellen DeGeneres, part Studs Terkel, Leila Peters allows the women to tell their own stories-about their lives, their challenges, their relationships. The women trust her-and us-enough to share their difficulties and failures as well as their joys and successes and we are richer for their honesty. Although these women share being in long-term lesbian relationships, their lives are incredibly varied. We have much to learn from them about loving and living well.'Dr. Nancy Marie Robertson, Director of Women's Studies Indiana University/ Purdue University. Indianapolis'Leila Peters has chronicled the inspiring and captivating stories of lesbian couples from all walks of life who maintained long lasting and flourishing relationships in the face of a disapproving and sometimes hostile family and community.

Leila spins the tales of these women's lives sensitively, honestly, and with just the right amount of background.'Mary Byrne, Executive Director of Indiana Youth Group'In Spite of Everything balances painful stories of sickness, poverty, prejudice and repression with tales of romance, joy and passion.

I'd love to see a 'five years later' sequel, bringing us up to date on these fascinating women.'Becky Thacker, Amazon Girls' Handbook, Wicker Park Press, 2002Faithful Unto Death, University of Michigan Press, Fall 2010'I was much impressed by the diversity of Relationships described in Leila Peters' book.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Poet and scholar Thomas W. Pierce, using his spiritual name 'Chandra Lal' from seventeen incarnations ago, presents a fascinating study on how we can eliminate war, crime, and violence from our world in The Revenge of the Child.Using a combination of intuition and research, Pierce delves into the history of the twentieth century and focuses primarily on two high and two low points as a framework for his argument. The high points include the discovery of cold fusion and the Marshall Plan and the low points include the atomic bombing of Japan and the Holocaust in Europe.Pierce argues that human progress is dependent upon human understanding. With the continued improvement of communication, the world has become a global village, which in turn has contributed to the slow increase of mass human understanding that all are entitled to help and protection. By harnessing this powerful element, we are better prepared to acknowledge the constructive forces of light and the destructive forces of darkness in the human psyche, enabling us to improve our world.By combining this knowledge with historical studies, Pierce shows how we desperately need to use this enlightened understanding to keep from repeating the mistakes of our history, particularly when it comes to child abuse. Only then can we transform Earth into the Paradise it is rightly destined to become.The Revenge of the Child aptly demonstrates what we as a people need to do to prevent tragedy from overtaking our beloved world.

The fieldwork was conducted in various cities across California. These women share their marriage experiences, life in the United States, and resiliency of overcoming challenges. This qualitative research is now integrated with the broader phenomena of 'arranged marriages,' 'consanguineous marriages,' 'mail-order bride,' and 'patriarchal family structures.'.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Educating your children in the public schools does not take one minute or perhaps one day. Education is a life-long process and whether we like it or not, the fact is, it never stops. Your children will spend the most important part of their lives at the public schools and whatever they learn at those schools will impact their lives as long as they live.What really happens to your children at public schools each day Do you think that your children are learning useful information in today's schools If you think that your children will leave today's public schools properly prepared for real life, the answer is no, you are WRONG!Public schools have failed. Many teachers are not properly educated with the appropriate teaching certification. School administrators constantly sell lies about the 'success' of their students, when in reality they are failing miserably today. Courses and exams are designed to be very simple so that they no longer test the knowledge of our children properly. The greatest portion of school budgets is spent on the salary of local school administrators. Almost everything your children learn in today's public schools is useless. Teaching positions are no longer designed for the smartest and most qualified teachers; they have become political positions that anyone can hold as long as they get approved by the school board.It's not too late to do something to turn this around! How Public Schools Destroy Your Children's Lives and Careers offers thoughts and solutions on this hot-button topic.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The Adirondack Mountains at Saranac Lake, New York, were considered the ideal climate to cure Tuberculosis. The cold was beneficial and the pine-scented air that distinguished the region was believed to have special therapeutic value. The sick lay out on porches in patient hope or resigned despair and even those who were cured continued the practice, convinced it had delivered them and would prevent a relapse. The houses in town were a testimony to this belief, rows of porches across their fronts, each holding a bed. At the sanatorium, the sick were urged onto their porches, taught to lie prone and let the pure air help heal the lesions in their lungs. No image was more evocative than a bed on a porch.The author spent two years at Trudeau Sanatorium in Saranac Lake and was one of the last patients to undergo the lengthy treatment believed at that time to be the only way to cure Tuberculosis, the miracle drug, Isoniazid. For some the cure came too late. No longer was tuberculosis communicable; no longer were families and loved ones torn apart, but, for many the damage had already been done.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - As high tech as the world of personal communication is, it still relies on the written word to transfer thoughts and ideas. Writing a sentence solidifies a thought as well as records it so to be available for review in the future. Significant Sentences provides exercises facilitating the combination of 'your personal spirit,' quiet reflection and your past experiences to come together and produce sentence that is recorded or `saved'. Using paper and pencil, keystroke and screen or even your smart phone, use Significant Sentences as a personal journal or a way to reach out using social media tools like Facebook. 'Blog' or 'tweet' your moments of discovery. How we write and transmit ideas is vastly changing but it still comes down to words conveying thoughts and emotions. These exercises can serve as a connection between teacher and student, speaker and audience, cyber audience or soul to soul. By sharing stories and ideas about your interpersonal life electronically or on paper, the individual may discover hidden writing talents, a gift for poetry, blogging or tweeting. Your reflections may become a poem, song or school essay. The variety and quantity of questions in each exercise are designed to spur the writer on by providing some starting point and giving some direction. Significant Sentences can be the catalyst for internal retrospection. Writing can reveal the negative as well as the positive. That is the cathartic joy and challenge. Facing those negatives or seeing them more clearly can be exactly what you need to conquer them. Trust yourself that good can be derived from recording your thoughts and reflections, and the connection with the self is the key to personal enlightenment. May you find hidden treasures and truth within.
