For Madeleine McCarthy - high-spirited and eight years old - her family's posting to a quiet air force base near the Canadian-American border is at first welcome, secure as she is in the love of her mother, and unaware that her father, Jack, is caught up in his own web of secrets.

"One of the finest novels I've read . . . .a fiercely intelligent look at childhood, marriage, families, the 1960s, the Cold War and the fear and isolation that are part of the human condition.... it is not only beautifully written.... it is equally beautiful in its conception, its compassion, its wisdom, even in its anger and pain. Don't miss it." -- Patrick Anderson, Washington Post Book WorldThe optimism of the early sixties, infused with the excitement of the space race and the menace of the Cold War, is filtered through the rich imagination of high-spirited, eight-year-old Madeleine, who welcomes her family's posting to a quiet Air Force base near the Canadian border. Secure in the love of her beautiful mother, she is unaware that her father, Jack, is caught up in a web of secrets. When a local murder intersects with global forces, Jack must decide where his loyalties lie, and Madeleine will be forced to learn a lesson about the ambiguity of human morality -- one she will only begin to understand when she carries her quest for the truth, and the killer, into adulthood twenty years later.

Family Mourning After War and Disaster in Twentieth-Century Britain
Across the twentieth century, the families of people who died in war and disaster were left to make sense of their sudden loss and navigate newfound grief. This book focuses the families of people who died in the First World War and in mining disasters in the early twentieth-century. These bereaved families were often denied access to bodies and choice over burial rights, all while dealing with the increased bureaucracy of death.Families created domestic memorials, which took on additional meaning because of this lack of memorial agency elsewhere. Although the ways that these families were bereaved each took place in different circumstances, the ways that families grieved were recognizable to one another: they drew on common memorial practices, augmented to take on special meaning after sudden death.This memorial material provided a vehicle for families to navigate their loss, but also to communicate the memory of the dead both externally, through donation to museums, and linearly, through ancestral lines. Drawing on a nuanced reading of a wide range of sources - from ephemera to administrative museum paperwork - this book explores family reactions to mass death events in early twentieth-century Britain. The result is a comparative and domestic perspective on mourning at the turn of the century that makes important contributions to the growing field of death studies, and will be of interest to those working on the First World War, interwar Britain, the history of work, the social history of the family, and the history of memorialization. 6 b&w illustrations

Äldrevård och äldreomsorg är viktiga kunskapsområden inom sjuksköterskeprogrammet. Att vårda äldre personer ger en unik möjlighet till personlig utveckling och mognad. Den nära kontakten med människor som levt ett långt liv och har ett rikt kapital av varierande erfarenhet kan ge perspektiv och insikt i ens egen tillvaro. De äldre behöver mötas av en lugn, kunnig och vänlig personal som ser till helheten och visar respekt för den äldre människan och hans eller hennes livserfarenhet. I boken Äldrevård och äldreomsorg finns kapitel eller avsnitt som i olika grad berör de sex kärnkompetenserna, som är viktiga för alla yrkesutövare inom vård och omsorg. Dessa är personcentrerad vård, samverkan i team, evidensbaserad vård, förbättringskunskap för kvalitetsutveckling, säker vård och informatik. Centralt i boken är personcentrerad vård. I personcentrerad vård med god kvalitet ska personen hela tiden vara i centrum. Därför behöver sjuksköterskan förstå hur den äldre personen upplever sin totala livssituation. I bokens samtliga kapitel presenterar olika omvårdnadsforskare varsin studie med anknytning till kapitlens innehåll. Detta höjer bokens kvalitet och ger läsaren en inblick i mångfalden av svensk omvårdnadsforskning. Innehållet i varje kapitel sammanfattas i form av huvudpunkter i slutet, där även uppgifter att reflektera över och att arbeta med går att finna. I den nyutkomna boken presenteras kunskaper från olika forskningsstudier samt från författarnas mångåriga erfarenhet inom äldrevård samt undervisning i ämnet på såväl grund- som högskolenivå. Båda författarna är medicine doktorer inom ämnesområdet omvårdnad med inriktning mot äldre. Presentation av bokens författare Ann-Marie Hedman, leg sjuksköterska, med dr inom ämnesområdet omvårdnad med inriktning mot äldre och lektor vid Röda Korsets Högskola.

Twelve Step Programs

Twelve Step Programs

Twelve Step Programs are significant features in the American landscape. Their popularity compels us to take them seriously. This book studies one such program, Al-Anon, which was founded in 1951 by wives of alcoholics who were struggling with the effects of alcoholism on themselves and their families. In the 1990s its scope was broadened to include husbands, grown children, lovers, friends, and anyone else affected by another's drinking or chemical use. This study used an ethnographic approach: it reveals that Al-Anon and similar groups act as sites of spiritual renewal and moral reconstruction for primarily white, middle-class, middle-aged, Protestant Americans who report experiencing a crisis of identity. Investigating Twelve Step Programs lends further insight into the cultural crisis affecting many Americans as well as the strategies some have found to make sense of their lives.

Vincenzo Scamozzi and the Chorography of Early Modern Architecture
The first English-language overview of the contributions to Renaissance architectural culture of northern Italian architect Vincenzo Scamozzi (1548-1616), this book introduces Anglophone architects and historians to a little-known figure from a period that is recognized as one of the most productive and influential in the Western architectural tradition. Ann Marie Borys presents Vincenzo Scamozzi as a traveler and an observer, the first Western architect to respond to the changing shape of the world in the Age of Discovery. Pointing out his familiarity with the expansion of knowledge in both natural history and geography, she highlights that his truly unique contribution was to make geography and cartography central to the knowledge of the architect. In so doing, she argues that he articulated the first fully realized theory of place. Showing how geographic thinking influences his output, Borys demonstrates that although Scamozzi's work was conceived within an established tradition, it was also influenced by major cultural changes occurring in the late 16th century.

Saints and Church Spaces in the Late Antique Mediterranean

Saints and Church Spaces in the Late Antique Mediterranean

Ann Marie Yasin

Cambridge University Press
2009
sidottu
This book explores the intersection between two key developments of the fourth through seventh centuries CE: the construction of monumental churches and the veneration of saints. While Christian sacred topography is usually interpreted in narrowly religious terms as points of contact with holy places and people, this book considers church buildings as spatial environments in which a range of social 'work' happened. It draws on approaches developed in the fields of anthropology, ritual studies, and social geography to examine, for example, how church buildings facilitated commemoration of the community's dead, establishment of a shared historical past, and communication with the divine. Surveying evidence for the introduction of saints into liturgical performance and the architectural and decorative programs of churches, this analysis explains how saints helped to bolster the boundaries of church space, reinforce local social and religious hierarchies, and negotiate the community's place within larger regional and cosmic networks.
