Book Description
Any agenda for family research in the 1990s must take seriously a contextual approach to the study of family relationships. The editors and contributors to this volume believe that the richness in family studies over the next decade will come from considering the diversity of family forms -- different ethnic groups and cultures, different stages of family life, as well as different historical cohorts. Their goal is to make more explicit how we think about families in order to study them and understand them. To illustrate the need for diversity in family studies, examples are presented from new and old families, majority and minority families, American and Japanese families, and intact and divorcing families. This variety is intended to push the limits of current thinking, not only for researchers but also for all who are struggling to live with and work with families in a time when family life is valued but fragmented and relatively unsupported by society's institutions. Students and researchers interested in family development from the viewpoint of any of the social sciences will find this book of value.

Book Description
He's a good detective...with a bad habit. "One of the Year's Best Crime Novels"-The New York Times Book Review, Booklist Frank Marr knows crime in Washington, DC. A decorated former police detective, he retired early and now ekes a living as a private eye for a defense attorney. Frank Marr may be the best investigator the city has ever known, but the city doesn't know his dirty secret. A high-functioning drug addict, Frank has devoted his considerable skills to hiding his usage from others. But after accidentally discovering a kidnapped teenage girl in the home of an Adams Morgan drug gang, Frank becomes a hero and is thrust into the spotlight. He reluctantly agrees to investigate the disappearance of another girl -- possibly connected to the first -- but the heightened scrutiny may bring his own secrets to light, too. Frank is as slippery and charming an antihero as you've ever met, but he's also achingly vulnerable. The result is a mystery of startling intensity, a tightly coiled thriller where every scene may turn disastrous. The Second Girl is the crime novel of the season, and marks the start of a refreshing series from an author who knows the criminal underworld inside and out.

Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The desire to improve your performance or meet high standards is not the same as being perfectionistic. It is this very desire to meet certain goals that helps you perform effectively in your environment. #2 Perfectionism is the desire to achieve high standards, and it is different from a healthy desire to achieve high standards. Perfectionists regard anything short of perfection as unacceptable. #3 Perfectionism is defined as having high standards and expectations that are difficult or impossible to meet. It is often associated with other problems, such as anxiety and depression. #4 The appropriateness of a belief about standards for performance depends on several factors: the excessiveness of the standard, the accuracy of the belief, the costs and benefits of imposing the standard, and the flexibility of the standard or belief.
