Book Synopsis'An exhilarating, genre-defying read' Observer, 'Beautiful' Elif Shafak, 'Absolutely sensational' Michael Cashman, CBE, 'Powerful and compelling' New Statesman', 'Brilliant' Caitlin MoranIn a world where women have more choices than ever, society nevertheless continues to exert the stigma and pressures of less enlightened times when it comes to having children.

She looks at how women's bodies have been monitored and controlled through history, and how this shapes the political constructs of motherhood and womanhood now.Extremely open in its honesty and meticulously researched, (M)otherhood probes themes of infertility, childbirth and reproductive justice, and makes a powerful and urgent argument for the need to tackle society's obsession with women's bodies and fertility.Trade ReviewAn exhilarating, genre-defying read . . . seamlessly interwoven with statistics, quotes and scientific evidence to clever narrative effect . . . reminiscent of Olivia Laing's writing on loneliness or the body . . .

Springer Disaster Bioethics: Normative Issues When Nothing
Book SynopsisThis book provides an early exploration of the new field of disaster bioethics:examining the ethical issues raised by disasters. Healthcare ethics issues are addressed in the first part of this book. Large-scale casualties lead to decisions about who to treat and who to leave behind, cultural challenges, and communication ethics. The second part focuses on disaster research ethics.With the growing awareness of the need for evidence to guide disaster preparedness and response, more research is being conducted in disasters. Any research involving humans raises ethical questions and requires appropriate regulation and oversight. The authors explore how disaster research can take account of survivors? vulnerability, informed consent, the sudden onset of disasters, and other ethical issues. Both parts examine ethical challenges where seeking to do good, harm can be done. Faced with overwhelming needs and scarce resources, no good solution may be apparent. But choosing the less wrong option can have a high price. In addition, what might seem right at home may not be seen to be right elsewhere. This book provides in-depth and practical reflection on these and other challenging ethical questions arising during disasters.Scholars and practitioners who gathered at the Brocher Foundation in Geneva, Switzerland in 2011 offer their reflections to promote further dialogue so that those devastated by disasters are respected by being treated in the most ethically sound ways possible. Trade Review“This edited volume brings together an interdisciplinary array of scholars from around the world to discuss disaster bioethics. … book offers an insightful examination of some neglected topics within the larger study of disasters that warrant inquiry. … Disaster Bioethics is a much needed contribution to a field that struggles with how to carry out research in extreme situations. It should be read, at the very least, by any scholar or practitioner who wishes to conduct fieldwork in disaster research.” (Nathalie Baker, Natural Hazards Observer, Vol. 39 (6), July, 2015)“The book is comprised of 13 chapters … contributed by individual authors and divided into two sections. … It will serve to shape and focus future research and debate. … This is a volume that will be of value to those interested in exploring the acceptable ethical bounds of conduct during times of disaster. Such individuals should include not only ethicists but also public health professionals, humanitarian aid workers, and academics who might conduct research in a disaster setting.” (James D.

Spinifex Press He Chose Porn Over Me: Women Harmed by Men Who
Book SynopsisShattering the popular myth that porn is harmless, the personal accounts of 25 brave women in He Chose Porn over Me reveal the real-life trauma experienced by women at the hands of their porn-consuming partners – men who were supposed to care for them. This confronting but necessary book dares to tell the truth about pornography’s destructive impact – about the men who habitually use it and the women and children who are mistreated and discarded as a result. The women in this book were collateral damage in their partner’s insatiable greed for porn. Their stories tell of the crushing of intimacy, respect, connection, love. Porn colonised their families, leaving women rejected and scarred. They were subjected to sexual terrorism in their own homes. The men, turbo-charged by pornography, were intoxicated by sexualised power. They didn’t care if they lost everything including their partners. In this haunting expose, pornography is rightfully situated as an insidious tool of violence against women. The contributors, now working to re-build their lives, found a confidante in Melinda Tankard Reist who supported them in the sharing of their experiences in these pages, and to warn other women – don’t date men who use porn …Trade Review"Occasionally a book comes along that changes the way we think about the world. "He Chose Porn Over Me" Women Harmed by Men Who Use Porn is such a book. Reading the stories of women whose partners chose porn is both heartbreaking and enraging, and can not be ignored. This book should light a fire under the anti-porn movement so we organize to rid the world of this misogynist, multi-billion- dollar predatory industry. Women deserve no less!" --Gail Dines PhD, Professor Emerita of Sociology, President: Culture Reframed "Thank goodness for this very much needed and extremely powerful book. The development of the porn industry has transformed the relations between the sexes. The advances women made have been severely undermined by the introduction of the rules of the brothel, contempt, misogyny, sexual abuse, to the lives and relationships of the women whose male partners are the consumers. We hear a lot about the poor men who are sex addicted or find their lives negatively affected. But of the women who suffer, almost nothing until this powerful expose. Porn use needs to be understood as a serious aspect of men's violence against women in the home. Not only are women's relationships and sex lives destroyed, but they are also made responsible for trying to change the men. They are the ones who have to find counsellors for partners who have no interest in change. They have to nag and cajole until the abuse is too much and they must leave. Then they may lose custody of their children, their homes, and face poverty. This book will do a great service of warning women and helping them decide to leave. I hope it will spur the feminist campaigns for the abolition of pornography too!" --Sheila Jeffreys, author of Penile Imperialism: The Male Sex Right and Women's Subordination and Trigger Warning: My Lesbian Feminist Life "To read "He Chose Porn Over Me" is a heartbreaking roller-coaster. The testimonies are diverse, but the message is the same: when men use porn, women and children suffer. The bravery and clarity these women offer on the real impact of pornography on relationships, families, sexual intimacy, physical safety and emotional connection, is groundbreaking. Melinda's thorough and astute research and commentary demonstrates that we urgently need to view porn as the pervasive and destructive weapon it is, and work together to teach our children about safe, respectful and loving sexuality." --Anna McGahan, actor and playwright "It's impossible to count the number of victims produced by the allegedly 'victimless' activities in the sexual-exploitation industries. "He Chose Porn Over Me" documents the incredible pain and suffering - psychological and often physical - of women whose partners are compulsive pornography users. The stories collected by Melinda Tankard Reist are heart-breaking, both for the women who endured the abuse and for readers willing to look honestly at men's controlling and corrosive behaviour. But these stories also remind us of how women's courage and resilience provide a way out of abusive relationships." --Robert Jensen, emeritus professor, University of Texas at Austin, author of The End of Patriarchy: Radical Feminism for Men "In "He Chose Porn Over Me" Melinda Tankard Reist has pulled back the curtain on the too-often secret and misunderstood lives of the partners who are impacted by men's porn use. She gives voice to these women who have had their hearts broken, trust shattered and lives turned upside down, enabling them to tell the stories they have kept silent about for so long. This book is an important documentation of the real relational and emotional harm caused to so many by compulsive sexual behaviours by men. I applaud Melinda and all the brave women who shared their stories." --Paul Lavergne, Psychotherapist, Sexual Recovery Therapist, Educator, Trainer, and Creator of The Damage Control ProtocolTable of ContentsIntroduction - Melinda Tankard Reist He chose porn over me. - Courtney CatEarth He used me like a blow-up doll.

Swift Press Zero: Eliminating unnecessary deaths in a
Book Synopsis''A thoughtful, serious and well-written book that tackles an immensely important subject'' - ObserverHow many avoidable deaths are there in the NHS every week?150.What figure should we aim for?Zero.The NHS is the pride of Britain. It's an army of highly skilled and talented healthcare professionals, armed with the most cutting-edge therapies and medicines, and a budget bigger than the GDP of most countries in the world.Yet avoidable failures are common. And the result is tragic deaths up and down the country every day.Jeremy Hunt, the longest-serving Health Secretary in history, knows exactly what the cost is. In the letters he received from bereaved family members, he was constantly confronted by the heart-breaking reality of slip-ups and mistakes.There is increasing conflict between public pride in the NHS and the exhausted daily reality for many doctors and nurses, now experiencing burnout in record numbers. Waiting lists are up, staffing numbers inadequate, and all the while an ageing population and medical advances increase both demand and expectations. With pressures like these, is it surprising that mistakes start to creep in?This great British institution is crying out for renewal. In Zero, taking the broadest approach, thinking through everything from staffing to technology, budgets to culture, Hunt presents a manifesto for that renewal.Mistakes happen. But nobody deserves to become a statistic in an NHS hospital. That's why we need to aim for zero.

Oxford University Press Inc The Contest for Japans Economic Future
Book SynopsisJust as a wave of entrepreneurship created Japan''s postwar economic miracle, so it will take a new generation of entrepreneurs to revive its stagnant economy. A complex distribution system dominated by the incumbents has made it hard for newcomers even to get their products on store shelves. Fortunately, major social changes are now opening new opportunities. Generational changes in attitudes about work and gender relations are leading more and more talented people to the new companies. This includes ambitious women who are regularly denied promotions at traditional companies. The rise of e-commerce is enabling tens of thousands of newcomers to bypass the traditional distribution system and sell their products to millions of customers. Three decades of low growth have convinced many within both the elites and the public of the need for change. Still, progress remains an uphill climb because of resistance by powerful forces. Bank financing remains quite difficult. For example, the system of lifetime employment has made it very hard to newcomers to recruit the staff they need. Banks, who are often in the same sprawling conglomerates as the corporate giants, are still loath to lend to new companies. While parts of the government try to promote more startups, other parts resist making the needed changes in regulations, taxes, and budgets.Japan''s economic future will be determined by the contest detailed in this book.

Palgrave Macmillan Teaching America to the World and the World to America
Book SynopsisA fresh analysis of the study of American foreign relations history, this book shows the ways in which international education has shaped the US relationship with the world.Trade Review"How did American education shape U.S. foreign relations? And how did educators around the world influence American schooling and diplomacy? These are enormous questions, and the answers vary across space and time. So do the remarkable essays in this collection, which draw together the best recent scholarship about international education and U.S. foreign affairs. There is plenty left to know, of course, and I hope this fine book inspires other historians to find it." - Jonathan Zimmerman, professor of Education and History, New York University "Teaching America to the World and the World to America offers a treasure trove of fascinating research. It shows that Americans and other peoples learned about one another in ways that surprised them both and that soft power is as unpredictable, challenging, and determinative as hard power, and just as real. Wonderful reading." - Elizabeth Cobbs Hoffman, author of All You Need is Love: The Peace Corps and the Spirit of the 1960sTable of ContentsIs the World Our Campus?: International Students and U.S. Global Power in the Long Twentieth Century - Paul A.

Palgrave Macmillan Establishing Academic Freedom
Book SynopsisThe is this the book-length work addressing the development of academic freedom and the procedures designed to protect it from the 1915 founding of the AAUP and the AAC to their endorsement of the key document in the history of professorial rights and responsibilities, the 1940 Statement of Principles of Academic Freedom and Tenure.Trade Review"Timothy Cain provides a compelling account of how the academic profession haltingly organized itself to protect academic freedom, explaining the AAUP's role and clarifying it by comparing its activities to those of the American Association of Colleges (AAC), the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), and the Progressive Education Association (PEA). While the time frame for Cain's account is 1915-1940, the issues raised and discussed are relevant to much that is currently experienced on college and university campuses across the nation." - Wayne J. Urban,Paul W. Bryant Professor, College of Education, The University of Alabama Tuscaloosa "This important book offers the first comprehensive look at how academic freedom, and the tenure system that supports it, developed in the United States. Whereas previous volumes have focused on particular organizations, specific topics, or individual cases, Cain blends all three to show what academic freedom came to mean to the profession, and how it has been defined and defended over time." - Linda Eisenmann, professor of education, professor of history, Wheaton CollegeTable of ContentsIntroduction Academic Freedom in Development Associating and Academic Freedom Treason and the 'Farce' of Academic Freedom Competition and Collaboration Freedom of Teaching in Science Social Relations and a Blacklist Disparate Voices Academic Freedom on Trial Conclusion

Palgrave Macmillan Conflicts and Wars
Book SynopsisExplaining how the price of aggression is low enough that governments do not avoid conflicts, this book uses examples drawn from recent conflicts in the Persian Gulf to examine many dimensions of costs incurred by warfare and proposes a private sector solution to warfare''s low cost.Trade Review'The message of Conflicts and Wars is clear: conflicts and wars are more costly than we imagine. We need a new approach to prevent conflicts. Askari provides us with a new and imaginative roadmap. This book is essential reading for everyone who labors in the pursuit of peace. That especially includes policymakers and politicians who espouse peace while supplying and supporting aggressors around the globe.' From the foreword by George A. Akerlof, Nobel Laureate in Economics, 2001, and Koshland Professor of Economics, University of California at Berkeley "An idea whose time has come. From the beginnings of civilization humankind has prayed for peace while plotting war. Hossein Askari compels us to look at the cost of war and challenges us to act for peace. A thought-provoking and essential read in this day and age." Mac Maharaj, former ANC lead negotiator in talks with the National Party Government, former joint secretary of the Transitional Executive Council, and first minister of transportation in the Mandela government 'This is one of those rare books that comes along occasionally to provide an original perspective on a timeless problem. Written in an engaging, lively and accessible style, Conflicts and Wars provides a masterful insight to the factors underlying wars and seemingly endless conflict around the world. Wars have always been condemned on moral grounds. However, Askari combines sound history with economic analysis to document the fact that wars, even before the current age of austerity, have become simply too expensive to pursue. His novel solution to ending conflict will no doubt spark a serious discussion that will hopefully aid in significantly reducing conflict in our time.' Robert Looney, distinguished professor, Naval Postgraduate School 'In Conflicts and Wars, Hossein Askari provides in understandable layman's terms a meticulous review of the literature on the costs of warfare. Offering his own blended methodology, Askari exposes the ghastly costs of human carnage, which are universally underestimated. He also provides insightful institutional recommendations to impose the costs of war directly upon aggressive leaders and nations as well as on private weapons producers. This masterful work is a must-read for national security scholars and for everyone interested in the future of mankind.' Donald L. Losman, professor of Economics, The Eisenhower School, National Defense University 'A thought-provoking and unique analysis of the impact of aggression on the powerless. Hossein Askari's real genius, however, is his solution-based action plan asking for active global citizenship to help the political and diplomatic establishment to become more effective in preventing conflicts and improving the lives of all world citizens. I have known Hossein Askari for over 40 years, first as his student at Tufts and then as my mentor and friend and I have always witnessed his keen intellect coupled with a strong sense of ethics.'

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Cognition, Rationality, and Institutions
Book SynopsisInstitutions are rules that are supported by various enforcement mechanisms. Cognition refers to the process of how men perceive and process information, whereas rationality refers to how these processes are modelled. Within institutional economics there is a growing scepticism towards extending the conventional economic frame of analysis to institutions. In particular, the notion of perfect rationality is increasingly questioned. At the same time human cognition has become a major field of research in psychology. This book explores what institutional economics can learn from cognitive psychology regarding the proper modelling of rationality in order to explain institutional change.Table of ContentsPreface.- D.
