Decade of the Brain: Poems
In the deeply personal Decade of the Brain, Janine Joseph writes of a newly-naturalized American citizen who suffers from post-concussive memory loss after a major auto accident. The collection is an odyssey of what it means to recover—physically and mentally—in the aftermath of trauma and traumatic brain injury, charting when “before” crosses into “after.” Through connected poems, buckling and expansive syntax, ekphrasis, and conjoined poetic forms, Decade of the Brain remembers and misremembers hospital visits, violence and bodily injury, intimate memories, immigration status, family members, and the self. After the accident I turned out all of the lights in the room while I watched, concussed, from the mirror. I edged like a fever with nothing on the tip of my tongue.

With an age difference of 21 years and living on opposite sides of the world, the power of their union saw a sacred commitment made to the waking up process. Little did they know this would involve...

One girl on a lonely island. One secret, deep underground. One chance to find a family. An adventure for 8 - 12 year-olds, about digging for treasure, family secrets - and one girl's determination to save what she loves. The story begins when Effie is transported to a wild and remote island, her mother's childhood home. At first, she finds the roaring sea and howling wind strange after the city.

Raine won't forgive Mum for leaving home at sixteen but she rents them Crow House with its crumbling walls and spiders' webs. There are secrets to uncover and hidden treasures, too. When Effie accidentally finds a golden brooch, she starts to dig for the treasure chest she knows is right under her feet. Little by little, as she explores its beaches, sea-caves and open meadows, the island grows on her, and Crow House becomes the home she's always wanted. Then it all goes wrong. Forced to take risks, can Effie dig fast enough to save everything she loves?

Unsettling Beliefs
This volume explores issues involved with teaching social theory to preservice teachers pursuing degrees through teacher education programs and experienced teachers and administrators pursuing graduate degrees. The contributors detail their experiences teaching theoretical perspectives regarding race, gender, ethnicity, sexuality, power, and the construction of schools as an institution of the state. The editors and contributors hope to offer the beginning of a colleagial dialogue within the field of education (both inside and outside the academy) about the relevance and pedagogical issues associated with such material. Additionally, the contributors offer advice on missteps to avoid and provide success stories that give hope to those who also wish to engage in the practice of teaching theory to teachers.
