Show Me Your Mighty Hand
Raising children isn't for the faint of heart. All moms face challenges as they bring up their children. Perhaps none know this more so than if you're a mother whose children have special needs. The difficulties you—and your kids—encounter are often unique, requiring unwavering patience and understanding. Written by Wendy Heyn, a mother of a child with special needs, Show Me Your Mighty Hand offers a glimpse of such difficulties in nine true accounts from special-needs moms. It then connects their questions, fears, pain, and anxieties to those of a well-known biblical mom: Jesus' mother, Mary. This correlation shows that every mom faces unique circumstances when raising a child. You are ...
Terrorism and Literature
Terrorism has long been a major shaping force in the world. However, the meanings of terrorism, as a word and as a set of actions, are intensely contested. This volume explores how literature has dealt with terrorism from the Renaissance to today, inviting the reader to make connections between older instances of terrorism and contemporary ones, and to see how the various literary treatments of terrorism draw on each other. The essays demonstrate that the debates around terrorism only give the fictive imagination more room, and that fiction has a great deal to offer in terms of both understanding terrorism and our responses to it. Written by historians and literary critics, the essays provide essential knowledge to understand terrorism in its full complexity. As befitting a global problem, this book brings together a truly international group of scholars, with representatives from America, Scotland, Canada, New Zealand, Italy, Israel, and other countries.

Ageing and Technology
The booming increase of the senior population has become a social phenomenon and a challenge to our societies, and technological advances have undoubtedly contributed to improve the lives of elderly citizens in numerous aspects. In current debates on technology, however, the »human factor« is often largely ignored. The ageing individual is rather seen as a malfunctioning machine whose deficiencies must be diagnosed or as a set of limitations to be overcome by means of technological devices. This volume aims at focusing on the perspective of human beings deriving from the development and use of technology: this change of perspective - taking the human being and not technology first - may help us to become more sensitive to the ambivalences involved in the interaction between humans and technology, as well as to adapt technologies to the people that created the need for its existence, thus contributing to improve the quality of life of senior citizens.
