Preferenze delle ostetriche rispetto alle perturienti in merito alle posizioni del parto
L'esperienza della nascita umana uno degli eventi pi significativi della vita di una donna che porta un figlio. Il parto naturale considerato un diritto della donna e sta diventando sempre pi un argomento di interesse durante i corsi pre-parto. La posizione assunta dalla partoriente quindi un aspetto importante del processo di parto che stato oggetto di molte discussioni. Le posizioni del parto o della fase di spinta del travaglio e il relativo esito del travaglio sono stati oggetto di un notevole dibattito negli ultimi due decenni. In tutto il mondo, le donne hanno utilizzato posizioni supine e non supine durante il parto. Le donne possono scegliere liberamente il luogo del parto e, in una certa misura, l'assistente al parto, ma il loro ruolo nella scelta consapevole della posizione del parto non stato chiaramente definito. Nella maggior parte delle societ non industrializzate, le posizioni non supine sono ancora preferite dalle donne, con l'inginocchiamento e l'accovacciamento come posizioni di parto preferite durante i parti tradizionali in casa. Tuttavia, nei Paesi africani, compresa l'Africa orientale, le posizioni supine sono ancora utilizzate in modo dominante nella pratica ostetrica durante i parti sia in casa che in ospedale.

Anita Page (1910-2008) first captured attention near the end of the silent film era in such classics as While the City Sleeps (1928) with Lon Chaney, The Flying Fleet (1929) with Ramon Novarro, and her own favorite, Our Dancing Daughters (1928) with Joan Crawford. In a relatively short career, Page enjoyed critical acclaim. She appeared in the first full-sound movie to win Best Picture, The Broadway Melody (1929). With a foreword by her close friend, actor Randal Malone, this reference work is the first to fully detail Page's remarkable career, including a biography and a complete listing of all her films, along with her one stage appearance and her returns to the limelight in later years. Entries provide complete production information, reviews and behind-the-scenes commentary. Dozens of photos and revealing anecdotes complete a portrait of a fascinating yet underappreciated performer.

Allen Klein: The Man Who Bailed Out the Beatles, Made the Stones, and Transformed Rock & Roll
"Fred Goodman makes this world come alive, and any fan of rock or insider tales of the music industry will be in heaven reading about this fascinating, troubling character." -- Judd Apatow, Omnivoracious "Writing about contracts, percentages, and deals can be tedious, but Goodman makes it as exciting as reading about an artist's sex life. The book explodes with inside dope." --New York Daily News Allen Klein was like no one the music industry had seen before. Though he became infamous for allegedly causing the Beatles' breakup and robbing the Rolling Stones, the truth is both more complex and more fascinating. As the manager of the Stones and then the Beatles--not to mention Sam Cooke, Pete Townshend, Donovan, the Kinks, and numerous others--he taught young soon-to-be legends how to be businessmen as well as rock stars. While Klein made millions for his clients, he was as merciless with them as he was with anyone, earning himself an outsize reputation for villainy that has gone unchallenged until now. Through unique, unprecedented access to Klein's archives, veteran music journalist Fred Goodman tells the full story of how the Beatles broke up, how the Stones achieved the greatest commercial success in rock history, and how the music business became what it is today. "Fred Goodman is a superb writer . . . and his account here of one of rock 'n' roll's most polarizing figures could not be more readable. The even-handed tone, the supposition that readers are moderately intelligent and sophisticated, and the rather astounding involvement Allen Klein had with pop music's largest legends--put all that together, and you've got one highly engrossing read." --Yahoo Music "Succeed s] both as a compelling work of rock 'n' roll history and as a cautionary business primer." --Wall Street Journal

In this series, a contemporary poet selects and introduces a poet of the past. By their choice of poems and by the personal and critical reactions they express in their prefaces, the editors offer insights into their own work as well as providing an accessible and passionate introduction to some of the greatest poets of our literature. Allen Ginsberg (1926-97) was born in Newark, New Jersey, to a poet-teacher father and Russian emigre mother. Along with his friend Jack Kerouac, he attended Columbia University, but was initially expelled for writings obscenities on his dormitory window before returning to complete his graduation in 1948. When "Howl and Other Poems" was impounded by San Francisco customs in 1956, the subsequent trial for obscenity catapulted Ginsberg and his publisher City Lights to national fame and helped to define the Beat Generation. His "Collected Poems: 1947-1997" appeared in 2006.
