Why Me Want Eat
For people struggling with food, eating, and body image issues, conventional self-help books might not always hit the right note. This irreverent, unconventional, seriously un-serious book - based on the author's 20 years of teaching and coaching, as well as the current science of change psychology - tackles the concept of disordered eating from a more informal, real-life angle. Part self-exploration guide, part nutrition advice, part workbook, part manifesto, part instruction manual for life, this book covers: * the author's own experience with disordered eating * how food and eating issues are ways to solve problems and deal with pain * how you're not as broken as you think you are * how to soothe painful emotions * how to get "un-stuck" and moving in a new direction * how to eat to nourish your brain and help yourself feel better Simply written, easy to understand, full of humor and - yes - plenty of curse words, this book is a quick but high-impact read that might just change your life.
Trans/forming Feminisms

Critical To Care
Who counts as a health care worker? The question of where we draw the line between health care workers and non-health care workers is not merely a matter of academic nicety or a debate without consequences for care. It is a central issue for policy development because the definition often results in a division among workers in ways that undermine care. Critical to Care uses a wide range of evidence to reveal the contributions that those who provide personal care, who cook, clean, keep records, and do laundry make to health services. As a result of current reforms, these workers are increasingly treated as peripheral even though the research on what determines health demonstrates that their work is essential. The authors stress the invisibility and undervaluing of 'women's work' as well as the importance of context in understanding how this work is defined and treated. Through a gendered analysis, Critical to Care establishes a basis for discussing research, policy, and other actions in relation to the work of thousands of marginalized women and men every day.

Doing IT
"From the boom of the 1990s to the bust of early 2000, women have been carving out careers in information technology. For these IT workers, it is not just about earning a living but about applying their technological, scientific and engineering skills and knowledge. Doing IT demonstrates that women fill a wide variety of these technological occupations, yet continue to face barriers preventing them from reaching their full professional potential. Scott-Dixon examines the IT environment's traditional workplace that keeps gender, race, class, ability and pay inequities firmly in place. Drawing on personal interviews, she shows that despite these barriers, women in IT bring passion to their jobs and draw on their wit, intelligence and creative resourcefulness to shape their career paths. Doing IT is an invigorating conversation among women in search of greater employment opportunities."--Amazon.ca.
