Identity is one of the most controversial topics discussed in our world today. There are many competing factors that try to define what a person is or is not, who they should be or not be, and who gets the final say on how they will be perceived.We already have too many copycats, imitators, and lost individuals who do not understand who they are or how they fit it into the piece of the human puzzle. They often end up in places that they didn't imagine, settling in jobs or careers that they hate, in relationships that drain them, or are simply trying to find their way back to being who they were always meant to be. It doesn't help that we live in a social media-driven culture where many are so focused on what society says is the norm that we forget to be original and authentic.No one should be trying to force-fit into a place they were never intended to remain. Although all of us have made mistakes that have tried to define us, have felt lost or confused at some point in our life journey, and have been forced to make hard decisions in the midst of pain, none of these things have the final say on who we really are.Life has a way of snuffing out true passion, shutting down dreams, and altering the lens in which we view the world. Pieces: Constructing the Identity Puzzle; A Christian Perspective is a book that details the journey of uncovering your unique identity while seeking to understand God in the midst of your flaws and imperfections.Through poetry, anecdotes, and practical wisdom, Powell explains the ways in which a person who once felt uncertain, robbed, lost, and defeated can recover and emerge victorious. This book challenges you to reflect on the things that prevent you from being truly authentic while exploring the process of uncovering the layers that make you "you " Finally, it asks you the most important question of all: "who are you really?"

Touching, charming, playful, and based on real events, this moving tale by Candace Fleming and illustrated by Eric Rohmann tells all about "the wonder dog" who took America by storm.

What are the political dimensions that are revealed in women’s preferences for health care during pregnancy and childbirth? The answers to this question vary from one community to the next, and often from woman to the next, although the trends in the Global North and South are strikingly different. Employing three conceptual frames; medicalization, the public-private distinction, and intersectionality, Candace Johnson examines these differences through the narratives of women in Canada, the United States, Cuba, and Honduras. In Canada and the United States, women from privileged and marginalized social groups demonstrate the differences across the North-South divide, and women in Cuba and Honduras speak to the realities of severely constrained decision-making in developing countries. Each case study includes narratives drawn from in-depth interviews with women who were pregnant or who had recently had children. Johnson argues that women’s expressed preferences in different contexts reveal important details about the inequality that they experience in that context, in addition to as various elements of identity. Both inequality and identity are affected by the ways in which women experience the division between public and private lives – the life of the community and the life of the home and family – as well as the consequences of intersectionality – the combinations of various sources of disadvantage and women’s reactions to these, either in the form of resistance or compliance. The rigorous and highly original cross cultural and comparative research on health, gender, poverty and social context makes Maternal Transition an excellent contribution to global maternal health policy debates.

The book examines various episodes and tensions in Mill’s life and work and how they relate to and informed his philosophy — while also giving a critical account of it. This book will be of interest to students of philosophy.
