Book Description
There's never a dull moment at New Kapington High School. The students' test scores, the music programs, and the athletic program are all outstanding, and the teaching staff is, for the most part, exceptional-although some of them occasionally find themselves caught up in crazy controversies. Twenty-five-year-old English teacher Patricia Dooble is one of the cool faculty members. Although her behavior and clothing are a bit risqué, students know they can trust her. Another young teacher, Daniel Gardelo, runs a popular restaurant on the weekends. It's mid-May, and everyone is just trying to make it to the end of the term. But soon the school is embroiled in a series of wild events: a leaked sex video, an accidental pregnancy, a school shooting, a suicide by fire, and a bomb threat. There's no telling what will happen next. In this play as the school year winds down, teachers, students, and community members experience a variety of shocks, scandals, and tragedies.

Book Description
Have you ever wondered if people can really change? Have you been curious about what happens in a psychotherapist's office? Have you ever felt emotional despair and looked to find meaningful answers? This is the remarkable true story of Emma, a fragile young woman, and her tenacious therapist. The story describes the unconventional approaches taken by the psychologist to invite her client to recover and eventually thrive. Overcoming intimately explores the therapeutic process from the perspective of both the client and the therapist. Emma's personal notes and letters to Dr. Bowers gives the reader a unique perspective into the minds of both therapist and client. Emma had to overcome a tragic childhood, and Dr. Bowers had to overcome self-doubt, frustration, and therapeutic conventions in order to become an effective healing agent for her client. The reader will learn tips on coping with depression, anxiety, and trauma through reading Emma's story and the suggestions offered by Dr. Bowers. The willingness of Dr. Bowers to trust her intuition and follow her heart, rather than to follow conventional therapy guidelines allowed her to establish the therapeutic alliance that saved Emma's life. Emma's challenges with childhood sexual abuse, abandonment, depression, substance abuse, sexual identity confusion, grief, and forgiveness are all navigated with sometimes hair-raising drama and unpredictable chaos throughout their work together. It is a story of triumph, bravery, and healing that has a profound impact on the reader who rides the emotional roller coaster with Dr. Bowers and Emma.

Parerga and Paralipomena: Part I
Author: Arthur Schopenhauer
Publisher: Livraria Press
ISBN: 3989880039
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
A new translation of Arthur Schopenhauer's 1851 Pererga und Paralipomena, Part I, with an Afterword by the Translator/ This is volume V in the Complete Works of Arthur Schopenhauer by Livraria Press covering all of Schopenhauer's works chronologically. Pererga und Paralipomena is Schopenhauer's collection of 37 philosophic texts including various essays, aphorisms, poems, and fables, published in a two-volume format. The title works are transliterations of ancient Greek works for "side works" and "addendums". Its subject matter is broad and touches on everyday life and very specific subjects. This collection summarizes Schopenhauer's life works outside of his 1819 Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung. This contains his Aphorisms to Life Wisdom, poetry, fables, extensive commentaries on Kant, and even his 1851 "Attempt on ghost seeing and what is connected with it". Schopenhauer was critically influential on Nietzsche, and many Nietzschean themes are explicitly broken out here, including his Anti-Socratic, Anti-Metaphysical and Pessimistic understanding of the Will-to-Power, the life-force of nature severed by "heard morality".

Overcoming Bias
Author: Sue Ellen Christian
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 135181687X
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
Journalists go out of their way to avoid purposeful bias in the news. But there is a more pervasive set of internal biases and flaws in thinking that can lead to unintentional inaccuracies and distortions in news coverage. This engaging book offers a fresh take on reporting without bias, targeting the way that we categorize people, filter information and default to rehearsed ways of thinking. Included throughout are stories and on-target advice from reporters and editors, providing real-world voices and experiences. This advice and guidance is coupled with practical exercises that give readers the chance to apply what they learn. Overcoming Bias will teach readers to edit their thinking for habitual errors, making them more perceptive journalists. It provides a career-long foundation for challenging bias. This is an ideal text for a course on multi-cultural reporting or journalism ethics; it may also be used as a supplement in any course on reporting and writing, as each chapter deals with potential biases that emerge at each stage of the story process, from story ideas to editing.
