Dawn started sharing her diaries with a few friends, then with a wider audience on Facebook. She is witty and bright, describing everyday tasks and activities with humour and insight. She takes us from the beginning of the Lockdown, as we all became used to wearing masks, turned into teachers, hairdressers and found nail technicians were like gold dust. She touches on the everyday struggles too - being apart from her six children, missing friends and getting fat. On the plus side, Dawn has contributed to glass bottle recycling on a global scale and performed miracles for Smirnoff shares.

William Booth worked tirelessly, campaigning, researching, negotiating, adapting music-hall songs - and writing. This book introduces us to his heart and convictions.

On street corners throughout the country, men stand or sit together patiently while they wait for someone looking to hire un buen trabajador (a good worker). These day laborers are visible symbols of the changing nature of work—and the demographics of workers—in the United States. Carolyn Pinedo-Turnovsky spent nearly three years visiting with African American men and Latino immigrant men who looked for work as day laborers at a Brooklyn street intersection. Her fascinating ethnography, Daily Labors, considers these immigrants and citizens as active participants in their social and economic life. They not only work for wages but also labor daily to institute change, create knowledge, and contribute new meanings to shape their social world. Daily Labors reveals how ideologies about race, gender, nation, and legal status operate on the corner and the vulnerabilities, discrimination, and exploitation workers face in this labor market. Pinedo-Turnovsky shows how workers market themselves to conform to employers’ preconceptions of a “good worker” and how this performance paradoxically leads to a more precarious workplace experience. Ultimately, she sheds light on belonging, community, and what a “good day laborer” for these workers really is.

Forrest S. Mosten Collaborative Divorce Handbook Helping families without going to court Praise for Collaborative Divorce Handbook "There are many roads to peace. Whether you engage in collaborative practice, which by definition includes the provision that professionals will not represent the parties in litigation, or some other process for respectful conflict resolution, you will find Collaborative Divorce Handbook to be an invaluable resource for deepening your understanding and enhancing your skills as a peacemaker." —Talia L. Katz, JD, executive director, International Academy of Collaborative Professionals "Collaborative lawyering is a promising new way of resolving disputes through joint problem solving rather than adversary litigation that has particular appeal for divorce cases. Whether you are a client who seeks to learn more about it or a lawyer using it who desires a wise guiding hand, this book is an invaluable resource." —Frank E. A. Sander, Bussey Professor Emeritus, Harvard Law School "Written by one of the innovative thinkers in the field, Collaborative Divorce Handbook is a treasure of information for all professionals interested in collaborative divorce. Easy to read, expansive, and chock-full of resources, it is bound to become a classic." —Constance Ahrons, PhD, author, The Good Divorce and We're Still Family, and professor emerita, University of Southern California "Family law is changing. As more people realize that the adversarial process is expensive, degrading, and stressful, they look for alternatives and find it in various forms of alternative dispute resolution. Woody Mosten is the nationally recognized leader of this movement, and his book on collaborative practice literally will be 'The Handbook' we will all follow." —Garrett C.

Con la larga experiencia de sus estudios en pueblos y sociedades de otros continentes, Marvin Harris probó a aplicar su enfoque antropológico a una sociedad moderna en el ensayo titulado "La cultura norteamericana contemporánea" (1980) y que ahora, con un nuevo prefacio del autor escrito en 1987, se presenta al lector con el título "Por qué nada funciona?" El texto, ya paradigmático, demuestra la viabilidad de que el análisis de las costumbres e instituciones de zonas remotas del mundo pueda ayudar a comprender realidades sociales más complejas. Por otro lado, lo que en su día podía resultar análisis de una sociedad ajena, como la estadounidense, se ha convertido con los años, y salvando diferencias locales o hechos imprevisibles, en radiografía de los problemas, incomodidades y realidades cotidianas de todas las sociedades y culturas sujetas a la metrópoli del mundo occidental, fruto del paso de una economía productora a una economía basada en los servicios y la información.
