A Is for Auntie, "B" Is for Bad
When the word "incest" is heard, more often than not one surmises the perpetrator to be a male. However, this is not always the case. As four-year-old little Mary plays on the back piazza of her grandparents' home, her grandmother kisses her good-bye before leaving for the market and leaves her in the care of a live-in aunt. Mary's fragile life soon erupts into spasms of emotion and madness when an unexpected nap-time explodes into an incestuous attack. This attack turns diabolical and ritualistically continues over a period of two very long years: a blueprint for further horrendous atrocities when she is thrust into a seemingly insane world and emerges into womanhood. An inner voice tells her to seek the tattered threads of her lost life and confront her inner demons. Her courage and inner strength, however, prove to be no competition to what lies ahead.

Secondary Analysis of the TIMSS Data
Researchers who participate in IEA studies have a unique opportunity to work collaboratively with their counterparts from many different countries and disciplinary backgrounds over a period of several years on questions of shared academic interest. Once the data for a given study have been collected and the first round of international reports published, however, opportunities for that kind of collaboration tend to be much less frequent. A major strength of IEA studies compared to other large-scale, international studies is that they are classroom based, thereby making it possible for researchers and policy makers to investigate linkages between students’ achievement and a wide range of va...

Christian Imperialism
In 1812, eight American missionaries, under the direction of the recently formed American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, sailed from the United States to South Asia. The plans that motivated their voyage were ano less grand than taking part in the Protestant conversion of the entire world. Over the next several decades, these men and women were joined by hundreds more American missionaries at stations all over the globe. Emily Conroy-Krutz shows the surprising extent of the early missionary impulse and demonstrates that American evangelical Protestants of the early nineteenth century were motivated by Christian imperialism—an understanding of international relations that asse...
