Confronting Child Sexual Abuse

Most people get information about child sexual abuse from media coverage, social movements, or conversations with family and friends. Confronting Child Sexual Abuse describes how these forces shape our views of victims and offenders, while also providing an in-depth look at prevention efforts and current research. Sociologist Anne Nurse has synthesized studies spanning the fields of psychology, sociology, communications, criminology, and political science to produce this nuanced, accessible, and up-to-date account. Topics include the prevalence of abuse, the impact of abuse on victims and families, offender characteristics, abuse in institutions, and the efficacy of treatments. Written for people who care for kids, for students considering careers in criminal justice or human services, and for anyone seeking information about this devastating issue, Nurse’s book offers new public policy ideas as well as practical suggestions on how to engage in prevention work. Interactive links to studies, videos, and podcasts connect readers to further resources.

A Nurse Abroad

The moving and heartwarming memoir of a British nurse who has spent her life working in the world's most remote and hostile environments In the early 1960s, Anne Watts was a newly qualified nurse, eager to use her skills. Her father expected her to work locally, not too far from North Wales, where Anne had grown up, and to then settle down and have children.

She found a placement easily, one of only a couple of women to work among the indigenous peoples who, in those days, were c...

Nursing was not something Anne had ever considered as a career, let alone becoming a midwife, but she had to do something and when she applied to a local hospital the matron insisted that she trained.This book follows her nursing experiences working in the different wards and departments, often highlighting how much both nursing and medical treatments have changed since then. On the wards she faced dealing with the seriously ill, death of a patient for the first time, learning how to give injections (which she had always dreaded), plus the endless bedpan rounds, ward cleaning, and long spells on night duty sometimes with confused and disruptive patients. And there was still time for some social life, despite the restriction of living in a Nurses' Home.In spite of her initial reservations she completed the course, and midwifery training followed, by the end of which she was already delivering babies at home alone. Over the following years she went on to become a Midwifery Sister and she recalls many events, both tragic and happy, in a career where you always have to be prepared for the unexpected.

I'm a Registered Nurse Not a Whore

The darkly humorous stories in I'm A Registered Nurse Not A Whore take dead aim at how easily our desire to be good is perverted or undermined by a desperate need for love and recognition. Despite a world of fading optimism and advancing catastrophe, plans are formulated, deals drawn, bargains struck, and hope prevails. Beautifully flawed, well-meaning yet easily sidelined, the characters in these eight stories catapult off the rails of ordinary life before raising themselves up - if only for a moment - in oddly heroic ways. These stories will make you laugh, reflect, and yearn to carry on.
