Mini Thins
Tyler Goodman spends his days strapped as the dutiful son and student of a lower- middle class set of parents, and his nights recording the Nor. Cal punk scene with his video camera. While everyone around him gets dirty, he manages to keep it clean(er), for no reason other than to secure his future path out of this small town. But Tyler'smanic best buddy, Davey the die-hard Petaluma punk, and a demi-goth-hippie daughter of a NRA Vietnam vet with a voice box and a set of wolf heads over his mantel, have other plans for Tyler's innocent need to get the f-out. Before he can even figure out which way is down, Tyler finds himself sideswiped by the intoxicating words of liars, thieves, and f*ck ups who'd rather keep their only friend on a short leash than kill their enemies. Oh, and skinhead beat-downs in the gay districts of San Francisco, too. Tyler used to dream about getting out of town. Now he just wants to find an appropriate definition of justice in a generation that is being made by Hollywood into the next great American commodity, alternative youth and the soon-to-be rave culture.
Modern Orthodox Judaism: A Documentary History
Modern Orthodox Judaism offers an extensive selection of primary texts documenting the Orthodox encounter with American Judaism that led to the emergence of the Modern Orthodox movement. Many texts in this volume are drawn from episodes of conflict that helped form Modern Orthodox Judaism. These include the traditionalists’ response to the early expressions of Reform Judaism, as well as incidents that helped define the widening differences between Orthodox and Conservative Judaism in the early twentieth century. Other texts explore the internal struggles to maintain order and balance once Orthodox Judaism had separated itself from other religious movements. Zev Eleff combines published documents with seldom-seen archival sources in tracing Modern Orthodoxy as it developed into a structured movement, established its own institutions, and encountered critical events and issues—some that helped shape the movement and others that caused tension within it. A general introduction explains the rise of the movement and puts the texts in historical context. Brief introductions to each section guide readers through the documents of this new, dynamic Jewish expression.
The Cambridge Handbook of Research Methods in Clinical Psychology
This book integrates philosophy of science, data acquisition methods, and statistical modeling techniques to present readers with a forward-thinking perspective on clinical science. It reviews modern research practices in clinical psychology that support the goals of psychological science, study designs that promote good research, and quantitative methods that can test specific scientific questions. It covers new themes in research including intensive longitudinal designs, neurobiology, developmental psychopathology, and advanced computational methods such as machine learning. Core chapters examine significant statistical topics, for example missing data, causality, meta-analysis, latent variable analysis, and dyadic data analysis. A balanced overview of observational and experimental designs is also supplied, including preclinical research and intervention science. This is a foundational resource that supports the methodological training of the current and future generations of clinical psychological scientists.

My Life as a 10-year-old Boy

Glikl
“My dear children, I write this for you in case your dear children or grandchildren come to you one of these days, knowing nothing of their family. For this reason I have set this down for you here in brief, so that you might know what kind of people you come from.” These words from the memoirs Glikl bas Leib wrote in Yiddish between 1691 and 1719 shed light on the life of a devout and worldly woman. Writing initially to seek solace in the long nights of her widowhood, Glikl continued to record the joys and tribulations of her family and community in an account unique for its impressive literary talents and strong invocation of self. Through intensely personal recollections, Glikl weaves stories and traditional tales that express her thoughts and beliefs. While influenced by popular Yiddish moral literature, Glikl’s frequent use of first person and the significance she assigns her own life experience set the work apart. Informed by fidelity to the original Yiddish text, this authoritative new translation is fully annotated to explicate Glikl’s life and times, offering readers a rich context for appreciating this classic work.
