How does one navigate a social world consisting of identities, facts, truths, problems and solutions constructed from the imprecise building blocks of language? What, if anything, does it mean to be gendered, racialized, aged, sexualized, oriented, mediated, penetrated, assaulted, traumatized, addicted, recovered, redeemed, educated, coupled, immigrated? Misguided Home provides contextual details related to lyrical artifacts of 64 songs composed between 1984 and 2010; between ages 15 and 41; between HIV, AA and DOMA; between existentialism, spiritualism, solipsism, and functional contextualism; between the United States, France, Indonesia, and Canada.
Are you confused as to why the foods and actions of your grandparents are now considered unhealthy, yet they lived in health to an old age? Are you tired of being told that pills, as opposed to diet, exercise, and lifestyle provide you with health? Perhaps your confusion is insight into the many issues with current medical recommendations that often take you out of the picture when it comes to your health. Perhaps it is time to take your health back into your hands.
Between 1877 and 1930--years rife with tensions over citizenship, suffrage, immigration, and "the Negro problem--African American activists promoted an array of strategies for progress and power built around "racial destiny," the idea that black Americans formed a collective whose future existence would be determined by the actions of its members. In Righteous Propagation, Michele Mitchell examines the reproductive implications of racial destiny, demonstrating how it forcefully linked particular visions of gender, conduct, and sexuality to collective well-being. Mitchell argues that while African Americans did not agree on specific ways to bolster their collective prospects, ideas about racial destiny and progress generally shifted from outward-looking remedies such as emigration to inward-focused debates about intraracial relationships, thereby politicizing the most private aspects of black life and spurring race activists to calcify gender roles, monitor intraracial sexual practices, and promote moral purity. Examining the ideas of well-known elite reformers such as Mary Church Terrell and W. E. B. DuBois, as well as unknown members of the working and aspiring classes, such as James Dubose and Josie Briggs Hall, Mitchell reinterprets black protest and politics and recasts the way we think about black sexuality and progress after Reconstruction.

This volume, devoted to the treatment of nervous and mental diseases, is designed to meet the needs which the rapid advances in knowledge of neurology and psychiatry have created. The nervous system is here regarded as a whole and as inclusive of the mind, and it is maintained that disturbances of any and all of its functions, mental as well as physical, are proper subjects for therapeutics. The present work lays emphasis upon the psychical side of life as being worth quite as much consideration as the physical. It sets forth doctrines of nervous and mental hygiene, reconstructive factors in social organization as applied to human ills, and endeavors to present a broad front to the pessimistic nihilism in therapeutics that has been too long current in these fields, because the doctor's eyes have been too closely focused on the individual examples and results of human accidents. Neurology and psychiatry offer the widest possible opportunities for preventive medicine as well as for therapeutic optimism. The program here presented is essentially therapeutic. Planned as it has been on a broad scale, the more practical issues confronting the clinician have, nevertheless, been fully met. The editors have sacrificed philosophical views for more definite guideposts wherever, in the present state of our knowledge, such a course seemed wiser.
