This book provides a critical analysis of the origins, nature, development, and transformation of the state and society historically and today, examining the class nature and social basis of politics and the state in different societal settings. The book emphasizes the centrality of class relations in explaining political power and the role of the state in class-divided societies by providing powerful theoretical and empirical analyses of themes in political sociology in an era of globalization. It examines in detail the major political issues and events of our time, and makes them relevant to the study of power and politics today. Students from many ethnic minority backgrounds and low-income families are underrepresented in American colleges and universities. This book describes and assesses educational policies and practices that seek to rectify this important manifestation of structured inequality. Inspired by a commitment to providing a pathway to college and beyond, Mehan and his team document the innovate practices developed and implemented at the nationally recognized schools created by The Center for Research in Educational Equity, Access, and Teaching Excellence (CREATE) at the University of California-San Diego: the Preuss School, a 6-12 charter school on the UCSD campus for underrepresented minority students; and nearby schools located in economically depressed neighborhoods. Based on long-term research, Mehan's book makes important contributions to the literature on educational achievement disparities that exist-and are growing-within the United States. He sheds light on how we can improve public policy for the futures of secondary school students.

“Fried’s stories are laugh-out-loud hilarious and wonderfully weird, yet his many strange worlds also have the power to haunt.” --Dan Chaon In “Loeka Discovered,” a buzz flows throughout a lab when scientists unearth a perfectly preserved prehistoric man who suggests to them the hopefulness of life, but the more they learn, the more the realities of ancient survival invade their buoyant projections. “Frost Mountain Picnic Massacre” meditates on why an entire town enthusiastically rushes out to the annual picnic that ends, year after year, in a massacre of astonishing creativity and casualty. The title story illuminates the desires and even the violence that surges beneath the tenuous peace among the animals in the Garden of Eden. Equal parts fable and wry satire, Seth Fried’s stories suggest that we are at our most compelling and human when wrestling with the most frustrating aspects of both the world around us and of our very own natures—and show why he has been called “one of the most exciting new voices in fiction” (Charles Yu, author of How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe). “He’s channeling Saunders by way of Barthelme and Kafka, but also clearing a whole new territory of his own . . . Seth Fried is the future of fiction.” —Hannah Tinti, author of The Good Thief
BACKING IN THE FRONT DOOR Stories of experiencing God's interruptions in our well-organized lives. So often Christians wanting to serve God have definite plans on how God should use us to the best of our abilities. Many times He chooses to use us in completely different ways. Much of what we have considered success over the past 20 years have been events and activities that were totally unintentional on our part. These stories show how God uses circumstances, locations and other people to have us do the work He had planned for us in the beginning. Some are humorous, while others have a certain sadness about them, but all tell how God can use anyone who says 'yes' to Him. LeRoy Ramsey, also author of Baby in a Box, has lived in Asia for over 20 years. This native Texan enjoys telling stories about the faithfulness of God. His career has spanned a range of vocations. He started covering high school football for the Houston Post while in college and followed that with work as a sports reporter/photographer, weekly newspaper publisher/editor, sports information director for two universities, communication director at a hospital, administrator of a Christian school, college journalism professor and country director for a mission agency. He and his wife, Jane live in southwest China. They have three adult children and one precious granddaughter.
Author and international speaker, Jill Briscoe, opens her heart and shareser intimate prayers and conversations with the God she seeks to serve. Aarriage breakdown in the family, a wedding, spending time apart from herpouse, are some of the topics which are treated honestly and sensitivitely.
A look into the life of a family's struggle before and during the war. And a daughters struggle after the death of her mother.
In her own words, and in a clear voice, Truusje van Zanten describes how she fell for the wrong man, how she and her children became victims of domestic violence and how she freed herself from his claws. In this true story, she does not spare herself, nor the institutions she has to pick a fight with for her own good, but above all for the sake of her children. Now and then she finds an audience for her cry for help, but also a lot of misunderstanding. Obstacles will be overcome and little by little, she pays off all her debts. But the threat of her abusive husband hangs over them as a dark cloud The outcome is uncertain. How will her children develop? Truusje wrote this story to be able to share it with the world and especially with all other victims of domestic violence. They can find support in this book, but so can the institutions that were involved in her 'case'. The book is not an indictment, but a report about deep pain and maybe it offers hope.
The Church’s New Front Door introduces Christians to the critically important concept of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, an era that will be dominated by powerful technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced robotics. While the Fourth Industrial Revolution is powered by technological developments, it has far-reaching political, socio-economic, ethical, and spiritual implications as well. To be missional, the church needs to be relevant; and in order to be relevant in the twenty-first century, believers must engage with novel technologies and the impact they are having on areas like work, education, and healthcare. Each chapter includes discussion questions and suggestions for further reading, making this book an accessible resource for diverse audiences, including church members, ministry leaders, and students at Christian colleges and seminaries. Whether you agree or disagree with the author’s description of how our world might change in the next ten to twenty years—this book will make you think!
The Truth is at my Front Door is a memoir/how to, for aging beautifully. Told through the experience of the author, the reader is guided through the themes and challenges fundamental to aging well. This book is not about how to prevent aging, circumvent or resist aging. It is about the quality of beauty within every woman and our shared experience of living in a culture that values a perpetually unlined face and flat belly. Fourteen stories and their wisdom lessons deliver insight on growing old with grace, sensuality and personal authority. The author tells us it is not necessary to have peerless skin, full eyebrows, someone in your bed at night, big breasts, and a big paycheck. What is necessary are big thoughts about beauty and the determination to do the rewarding work of filling the soul. This is a guide toward embracing impermanence. Themes of loss, change and meaning are the spiritual glue making this an important read.
