"Beneath the Shadows of Resilience" is a title that suggests a deeper exploration of the concept of resilience. It implies that there is more to resilience than what meets the eye, and that beneath the surface, there are hidden aspects, struggles, or challenges that contribute to one's ability to bounce back and thrive in the face of adversity. #The phrase "beneath the shadows" indicates that these elements of resilience may not be immediately apparent or widely acknowledged. It suggests that there is a hidden, often unspoken, side to resilience that requires deeper examination and understanding. Overall, the title conveys the idea that resilience is a complex and multifaceted concept, and it invites readers to delve beneath the surface to discover the untold stories, sacrifices, and strength that lie within individuals who demonstrate resilience in their lives. It hints at the idea that true resilience is not always easily seen or understood, but rather emerges from the depths of one's experiences and character.

From the Arab Spring to the Occupy and Tea Party movements, the "What now?" solution to economic disparity and power politics has been largely unarticulated. This work details how the Golden Rule ethic and a technology-driven global consciousness are causing epic shifts in our economic and governing systems. The evolution from nation-state capitalism to a collaborative economy with judicial governance is proving that prosperity is compatible with peace. With ten case studies of successful "Golden Rule" organizations and an innovative study of the reciprocal ethic, this book provides accessible, thought-provoking analysis of rapid worldwide change and forecasts a future of freedom, purpose and hope.

Based on evidence derived from over fifteen years of field work, 'From Shamanism to Sufism' shows how women kept alive traditional Islamic religious culture in Central ...
Challenging Images of Women and the Media: Reinventing Women’s Lives, edited by Theresa Carilli and Jane Campbell, collects fifteen articles addressing the status of women through an examination of depictions of women in the media. This in-depth study shows how mixed messages from the media muddle attempts at breaking the “glass screen,” causing women to constantly question their role in global culture. With cake ads followed by diet commercials, the media’s depiction of women is both confusing and contradictory. While more and more women have begun to contribute to the media as respected anchors, talk show hosts, and commentators, these portrayals are often counteracted by music vid...

Approximately three percent of newborn humans have congenital anomalies with significant cosmetic and/or functional consequences. Much of our ability to understand what has gone awry in these birth defects rests with development of animal models for them; the mouse has emerged as the model organism of choice for these studies. This volume reviews mouse models of specific developmental genetic diseases, including neural tube defects; cleft lip and/or palate; congenital heart disease; ciliopathies; hereditary deafness and others to provide conceptual insight into congenital anomalies generally. The interplay between clinical observation and murine model systems is expected to yield deep insigh...
