Contested Spaces: Abortion Clinics, Women's Shelters and Hospitals
In this book, Lori Brown examines the relationship between space, defined physically, legally and legislatively, and how these factors directly impact the spaces of abortion. It analyzes how various political entities shape the physical landscapes of inclusion and exclusion to reproductive healthcare access, and questions what architecture's responsibilities are in respect to this spatial conflict. Employing writing, drawing and mapping methodologies, this interdisciplinary project explores restrictions and legislatures which directly influence abortion policy in the US, Mexico and Canada. It questions how these legal rulings produce spatial complexities and why architecture isn't more cultu...
Feminist Practices
Women continue to be extremely under-represented in the architectural profession. Despite equal numbers of male and female students entering architectural studies, there is at least 17-25% attrition of female students and not all remaining become practicing architects. In both the academic and the professional fields of architecture, positions of power and authority are almost entirely male, and as such, the profession is defined by a heterosexual, Eurasian male perspective. This book argues that it is vital for all architectural students and practitioners to be exposed to a diversity of contemporary architectural practices, as this might provide a first step into broadening awareness and tr...

The New Handbook of Counseling Supervision
The second edition of this ground-breaking book continues the mission of its predecessor: to provide a "best principles" and "best practices" overview of the counseling supervision process, one that is firmly rooted in the recent explosion of empirical research in this field. Sponsored by the Association for Counselor Education and Supervision (ACES), the presentation is targeted primarily at master's-level practitioners who want "how-to" applications of the research literature (with examples) rather than a comprehensive review of the supervision literature. Like the first edition, this revised book is also a useful supplement for more academic texts used for doctoral-level instruction in counseling supervision. Key changes in this new edition include greater attention to multicultural and diversity issues and new chapters on group supervision and on technology. Also new are discussion questions and vignettes meant to enhance application of key concepts in each chapter as well as more sample materials and forms for practice.
Where Are the Women Architects?
A timely and important search for architecture's missing women For a century and a half, women have been proving their passion and talent for building and, in recent decades, their enrollment in architecture schools has soared. Yet the number of women working as architects remains stubbornly low, and the higher one looks in the profession, the scarcer women become. Law and medicine, two equally demanding and traditionally male professions, have been much more successful in retaining and integrating women. So why do women still struggle to keep a toehold in architecture? Where Are the Women Architects? tells the story of women's stagnating numbers in a profession that remains a male citadel, ...

Lowi and G
Welcome to Lowi & G. We are sisters by chance, and friends by choice. We are sarcastic, striving, and struggling zen masters. In our collection of stories, we share our manifesto for living a full and vibrant life outside the lines: We are committed to happiness, fulfillment, feeling good enough, getting help, and helping others. We strongly believe that our place in the world-dysfunction junction-is being inhabited by many of you as well. And it's time to say it, own it, and get a laugh out of it. We are knee-deep in this road trip of life and the map was blown out the window many dirt-road miles ago. We strive to say yes to those things that force us to choose between the well-worn path and the one less traveled; to leap face first into the unknown; to choose love and laughter over sadness and fear. We are stumbling toward living a genuine, open, and real life. And, we like to do that with a healthy dose of sarcasm, but also take time to bask in the vulnerable joys of sunshine. We traffic in the rawness of life, truth, and then chase it with forays into gratitude, redemption, and a shot of laughter.
