Don't Shoot Him He's Too Sick: Billy's Story...One of Survival, Hope, and Miracles
Just over twenty-five years ago, my 34 year old husband of four and one-half years was suddenly diagnosed with a very aggressive stage four cancer and given no hope for recovery. He was so sick that the only course of action was to try to prolong his life if only for a few weeks. Many would ask, "Why save him, he is too sick?"...in other words, "Save the bullet". As the scripture says, "Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees?" (Romans 8:24) Come along on this journey with me and discover God's imminence especially in the midst of crises, His provision at just the right moments, living hope when there is no evidence for hope, the goodness of humanity, and miracles. For anyone desiring proof of a higher power, practical steps to cope in crisis, how to "live" hope, and evidence of miracles, this story is for you.

Women's Employment in Japan

Women's Employment in Japan

Kaye Broadbent

RoutledgeCurzon
2003
sidottu
The low status accorded to part-time workers in Japan has resulted in huge inequalities in the workplace. This book examines the problem in-depth using case-study investigations in Japanese workplaces, and reveals the extent of the inequality. It shows how many part-time workers, most of whom are women, are concentrated in low paid, low skilled, poorly unionised service sector jobs. Part-time workers in Japan work hours equivalent to, or greater than, full-time workers, but receive lower financial and welfare benefits than their full-time colleagues. Overall, the book demonstrates that the way part-time work is constructed in Japan reinforces and institutionalises the sexual division of labour.
