The Politics of Love describes the history of Polish intellectual and cultural life, which covertly flourished at home and abroad despite imperial repression between Poland's two great uprisings in 1830–1831 and 1863. Natalie Cornett focuses her study on a group of educated women known as the "Enthusiasts" (Entuzjastki), who were united by their commitment to live as independent women despite the intense nationalism that put the nation above all—including class and gender. The Enthusiasts, led by Narcyza Żmichowska, emphasized sororal love and homosocial bonding in their program to contest both an oppressive imperial regime and constrictive gender roles. Their affective relationships wi...

During the past decade or more, there has been a rapid evolution of mental health services and treatment technologies, shifting psychiatric epidemiology, changes in public behavioral health policy and increased understanding in medicine regarding approaches to clinical work that focus on patient-centeredness. These contemporary issues need to be articulated in a comprehensive format. The American Association of Community Psychiatrists (AACP), a professional organization internationally recognized as holding the greatest concentration of expertise in the field, has launched a methodical process to create a competency certification in community psychiatry. As a reference for a certification examination, that effort will benefit enormously from a comprehensive handbook on the subject.
How to turn the paradoxes built into anti-racism work into drivers of learning and change Even as anti-racism practices seemed to be gaining momentum, the nation shows signs of falling back into long-standing patterns of racial injustice and inequality. Leaders who introduce anti-racist approaches to their organizations often face backlash from white colleagues and skepticism from colleagues of color, leading to paralysis. In What Might Be, Susan Sturm explores how to navigate the contradictions built into our racialized history, relationships, and institutions. She offers strategies and stories for confronting racism within predominantly white institutions, describing how change agents can ...
Ein Thriller der internationalen Diplomatie, der zwischen Februar 1932 und Oktober 1933 spielt – der Historiker Paul Jankowski erzählt die Geschichte vom Versagen der weltweiten Staatengemeinschaft, die Vorgeschichte des Zweiten Weltkrieges. Die Welt lief aus dem Ruder im Winter 1932/33. In Deutschland ergriff Hitler die Macht, Mussolini schielte nach Afrika, Japan griff China an und verließ den Völkerbund. In Frankreich gab es drei Regierungswechsel, die USA unter Roosevelt versuchten, die Weltwirtschaftskrise im Alleingang zu bewältigen. In einer fesselnden Erzählung schildert Paul Jankowski, wie die Welt durch nationalen Egoismus endgültig ins Wanken geriet. Jeder kämpfte gegen j...
Written by the leading authority on legal decision making, Professional Judgment for Lawyers integrates empirical legal research, cognitive and social psychology, organizational behavior, legal ethics, and neuroscience to understand and improve decision making by attorneys, clients, judges, arbitrators, mediators, and juries.
En un seul hiver, entre novembre 1932 et 1933, Hitler arrive au pouvoir, le Japon envahit Jehol et quitte la Société des Nations, Mussolini se tourne vers l'Afrique, Roosevelt est élu, la France change trois fois de gouvernement et les vainqueurs de 1918 se disputent acrimonieusement les dettes de guerre. Les prémices de la Second Guerre mondiale sont posées. All Against All montre que cette période cruciale de quelques mois a engagé toutes les nations sur la voie de la guerre par « intérêt national ». Reliant acteurs et événements du monde entier, Paul Jankowski offre ainsi un récit pertinent pour les démocraties occidentales d'aujourd'hui. La menace croissante des régimes dictatoriaux et les défis idéologiques du communisme et du fascisme ont donné aux années 1930 un visage unique, tout comme les crises environnementales et démographiques mondiales façonnent le temps présent.
