As seen in the New York Post! They promised her heaven, but there was no savior.Imagine an eighteen-year-old American girl who has never read a newspaper, watched television, or made a phone call. An eighteen-year-old-girl who has never danced-and this in the 1960s.It is in Cambridge, Massachusetts where Leonard Feeney, a controversial (soon to be excommunicated) Catholic priest, has founded a religious community called the Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The Center's members-many of them educated at Harvard and Radcliffe-surrender all earthly possessions and aspects of their life, including their children, to him. Patricia Chadwick was one of those children, and Little Sister is her account of growing up in the Feeney sect.Separated from her parents and forbidden to speak to them, Patricia bristles against the community's draconian rules, yearning for another life. When, at seventeen, she is banished from the Center, her home, she faces the world alone, without skills, family, or money but empowered with faith and a fierce determination to succeed on her own, which she does, rising eventually to the upper echelons of the world of finance and investing. A tale of resilience and grace, Little Sister chronicles, in riveting prose, a surreal childhood and does so without rancor or self-pity.

'A refreshing book that can hold the reader's interest throughout. Quality of Life and Disability should be a compulsory text for all students in the disability field and would make a useful one for experienced practitioners including social workers.' - Australian Social Work 'Among the recent proliferation of books on quality of life, this is a standout! Not only is Quality of Life and Disability: An Approach for Community Practitioners placed squarely in the disability field, but it has an applied emphasis that is rare for a topic that so abounds in vague and often conflicting theories and terminologies. Rather than burdening the reader with the conceptual conundrums of a construct as ambitious as whole of life quality, Brown and Brown dive into the real life issues. This quality of life text will appeal to many practitioners in the disability field. A welcome addition to the bookshelves of many practitioners.' - Paul Bramston, University of Southern Queensland, Australia 'Excellent guide demonstrating to practitioners, not only what they have to do to increase the quality of life of the people they look after, but also how they should start doing it.'- Wspolne Tematy 'A remarkably rich mixture of experience, guidance and insight into the determination of people's quality of life, and into ways in which a wide variety of care staff, managers and policy-makers can understand and respond to disabled people's wants and needs.' - Care and Health magazine 'One of the most refreshing approaches in the contemporary literature on quality of life and disability. The authors are to be congratulated for the very user friendly way the book has been designed.' - Trevor R. Parmenter, University of Sydney 'This book reflects the authors' extensive experience and admirable insight as they bring quality of life ideas closest to those who are in the best position to apply them - the practitioners. Useful, stimulating and well written.' - Robert L. Schalock, Hastings College, Nebraska 'The authors weave their text seamlessly, reminding us at every turn that quality of life varies across individuals, cultures and time...tightly-structured and practical.' - Patricia Noonan Walsh, University College, Dublin 'This excellent book is a valuable contribution to training literature in the field of community rehabilitation.'- Mitchell Clark, Mount Royal College, Calgary, Canada Quality of life - physical, psychological and environmental well-being - is a crucial consideration for professionals working with people with a disability. The authors of this practical book apply ideas about quality of life to the field of disability to assist front-line professionals, managers and policy-makers in effective service provision. They examine the historical context of the concept of quality of life and discuss the application of quality of life in the daily lives of people who have disabilities. Using recent studies to show how the development of quality of life approaches have led to changes in rehabilitation, and how an understanding of the issue can inform practice in assessment, intervention, management and policy, this is an indispensable book for all practitioners and managers working with people with disabilities.

Twenty-one short chapters discuss in detail the books selected as the most popular and influential mysteries across time. Starting with Caleb Williams (William Godwin) and Edgar Huntly (Charles Brockden Brown), the series moves through the great detective authors - Poe's Dupin stories, Doyle's Adventures of Holmes, Christie's The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, Sayers's Strong Poison, Chandler's The Big Sleep, Simenon's The Yellow Dog - and also considers lesser-known important early books, Wilkie Collins' The Woman in White, Emile Gaboriau's M. Lecoq, Anna Katharine Green's The Leavenworth Case and Fergus Hume's The Mystery of a Hansom Cab. More recent titles show increasing variety in the mystery genre, with Patricia Highsmith's criminal-focused The Talented Mr Ripley, and Chester Himes's African American detectives in Cotton Comes to Harlem, while diversity develops further in Sara Paretsky's tough woman detective V. I. Warshawski in IndemnityOnly, Umberto Eco's The Name of the Rose - both medievalist and postmodern -- and the forensic feminism of Patricia Cornwell's Postmortem. Notably, the best of the most modern have been primarily international - Manuel Vasquez Montalban's Catalan Southern Seas, Ian Rankin's Edinburgh-set The Naming of the Dead, The Girl with a Dragon Tattoo by Sweden's Stieg Larsson and Vikram Chanda's Mumbai-based Sacred Games.

<p>Bibliography: http://www.nyupress.org/webchapters/9780814775998_benhabib_biblio.pdf<br>In an increasingly globalized world, the movement of peoples across national borders is posing unprecedented challenges, for the people involved as well as for the places to which they travel and their countries of origin. Citizenship is now a topic in focus around the world but much of that discussion takes place without sufficient attention to the women, men, and children, in and out of families, whose statuses and treatments depend upon how countries view their arrival. As essays in this volume detail, both the practices and theories of citizenship need to be reappraised in light of the array of persons and of twentieth-century commitments to their dignity and equality.<br><b>Migrations and Mobilities</b> uniquely situates gender in the context of ongoing, urgent conversations about globalization, citizenship, and the meaning of borders. Following an introductory essay by editors Seyla Benhabib and Judith Resnik that addresses the parameters and implications of gendered migration, the interdisciplinary contributors consider a wide range of issues, from workers' rights to children's rights, from theories of the nation-state and federalism to obligations under transnational human rights conventions. Together, the essays in this path-breaking collection force us to consider the pivotal role that gender should play in reconceiving the nature of citizenship in the contemporary, transnational world.<br><b>Contributors:</b> Selya Benhabib, Jacqueline Bhabha, Linda Bosniak, Catherine Dauvergne, Talia Inlender, Vicki C. Jackson, David Jacobson, Linda K. Kerber, Audrey Macklin, Angela Means, Valentine M. Moghadam, Patrizia Nanz, Aihwa Ong, Cynthia Patterson, Judith Resnik, and Sarah K. van Walsum.</p>

En bombeeksplosjon på nyttårsaften setter Oslo i terrorberedskap. Et av ofrene på listen over skadde er et kjent navn for Alexander Blix.

Du trenger verken å være healer eller klarsynt for å se chakraene og auraen. Alle kan lære å fornemme kroppens energisentre. Hvert eneste menneske har et regnbuelignende energifelt omkring seg som kalles en aura. Auraen er knyttet til kroppen ved hjelp av chakraer. Chakraene er de usynlige energisentrene i menneskekroppen. De er plassert langs ryggraden og forbinder den eteriske kroppen (energikroppen) med den fysiske. Det er gjennom chakraene at sykdom i sinn og ånd anses for å manifestere seg som fysiske symptomer i kroppen. Ved å avbalansere chakraene gjennom ulike teknikker, som for eksempel visualisering, pendulering, bruk av krystaller og avsynging av mantraer, kan vi imidlertid bedre helsen, rense oss for negativitet og til og med kanalisere energi for å helbrede andre. Esoterisk lærdom fra mange kulturer tyder på at vi har 7 større chakraer, 21 mindre chakraer og et nettverk av energibaner som fungerer lettere dersom de får næring gjennom blant annet puste- og meditasjonsøvelser. I denne boken finner du mange praktiske måter å nære chakraene på.

Datoen er 31. oktober og året er 1973. På sitt privatdetektivkontor i Oslo blir Kolbjørn «K2» Kristiansen oppsøkt av en oppskaket lektor. Lektoren finner det utrolig at en gammel venn på Gjøvik skulle dø i en fallulykke, og begrunner det med at vennen led av høydeskrekk. Kristiansens etterforskning på Gjøvik tilsier at dødsfallet var en ulykke eller et selvdrap. Han avskriver funnet av en terning på åstedet som en tilfeldighet, men stusser over at den avdødes enke ikke kjenner til verken høydeskrekken eller lektorvennen. Før K2 rekker å spørre klienten sin om dette, omkommer lektoren selv etter å ha blitt påkjørt. Det viser seg at hans etterlatte ikke har noe kjennskap til den påståtte vennen på Gjøvik. K2s forvirring blir til en nagende visshet om at det har skjedd et dobbeltdrap, idet han også på åstedet i Oslo finner en terning. K2 må søke hjelp hos sin hemmelige rådgiver Patricia for å få oppklart mysteriet om hva slags forbindelse det var mellom de to ofrene. Senere har de fortsatt en lang vei frem til å stoppe den ansiktsløse og navnløse terningmorderen ... Terningmorderen er den ellevte romanen i historikeren Hans Olav Lahlums klassiske krimromanserie fra 1960- og 1970-tallets Norge.
