Prejudice, Racism, and Tribalism
Author: Anthony M. D'Agostino MD
Publisher: Page Publishing Inc
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 406
Book Description
This is a thoughtful, frank, and compassionate foray into understanding race and racism in America today. Dr D’Agostino approaches these topics with honesty and wit using research and his own experiences as foundation. Racism, he points out, is profitable. So is fear. Part memoir, part historical survey, he walks the reader through how racism, bias, and tribalism are part of the human experience. The book is for White Americans seeking to understand today’s political and racial divides. His grasp of global history and the actions of all human civilizations from antiquity onward is impressive. He begins with the complexities of finding workable definitions, then explores the historical underpinnings of slavery, colonialism, and xenophobia globally and in the US. Within each chapter he addresses the current moment, particularly how the ideals of liberty and freedom have been perverted to manipulate the fears of White Americans. This book is not an academic study. And there is plenty that the hypersensitive, politically-correct reader will take issue with. If so, that is to their detriment, because this book is a primer for how to do the hard work of examining what it means to be a White American. Not for the sake of feeling guilt or shame over the past, but it’s important to understand how we got to the present so we can avoid being complicit. He invites the reader in by continually asking questions, not in a finger-wagging, preachy way, but as a model for introspection. Throughout the book, he asks himself: What would I have done differently? Many of us like to think we’d have been ardent abolitionists, or righteously denied our privilege, but would we?

Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 590
Book Description
The past decade has brought important advances in our understanding of the brain, particularly its influence on the behavior, emotions, and personality of children and adolescents. In the tradition of its predecessors, the third edition of the Handbook of Clinical Child Neuropsychology enhances this understanding by emphasizing current best practice, up-to-date science, and emerging theoretical trends for a comprehensive review of the field. Along with the Handbook’s impressive coverage of normal development, pathology, and professional issues, brand-new chapters highlight critical topics in assessment, diagnostic, and treatment, including, The role and prevalence of brain dysfunction in ADHD, conduct disorder, the autistic spectrum, and other childhood disorders; The neuropsychology of learning disabilities; Assessment of Spanish-speaking children and youth; Using the PASS (planning, attention, simultaneous, successive) theory in neurological assessment; Forensic child neuropsychology; Interventions for pediatric coma. With singular range, timeliness, and clarity, the newly updated Handbook of Clinical Child Neuropsychology reflects and addresses the ongoing concerns of practitioners as diverse as neuropsychologists, neurologists, clinical psychologists, pediatricians, and physical and speech-language therapists.

Pages : 137
Book Description
Do you ever feel like no one understands your foster or adoptive parenting journey? Are you fighting battles your family and friends don't really get? In The Call to Love, I share my story of choosing to become a mom to a group of amazing brothers and sisters, at the age of 40, with my best friend. We are a pretty big, modern family in every sense!Each chapter walks you through our crazy story from when we first met our kids to when we became family. I guarantee you have never met a family like ours and I hope you will laugh and cry with me through each step of our journey.But, this isn't just a memoir of our story. In each chapter you will learn trauma informed parenting strategies to help you create the home you hope for. There isn't a cookie cutter approach for working with kids from hard places. We need to look at ourselves as parents, and our individual children and figure out what approaches will work for us in this season. And, that might change tomorrow! So it's important to have a well informed concept of parenting and then move forward with what works in your home right now.I am all about keeping it real. So this book will not be pretty or perfect or tied up with a bow. I'm honest about times we screwed up, the seasons where it was really hard, but also the times we laughed and loved and did it well. I'm hoping that this book starts a conversation about the struggles often faced by foster & adoptive parents and creates a community between all of us. "Wherever you are coming from, I hope this story of our successes and failures helps you say yes to something beautiful tomorrow."www.trishjonker.com
