A study of conjugal and kin relationships in a group of urban, educated West Africans, Akan Senior Civil Servants in Accra. As well as representing a contribution to the growing body of data on marriage and family life in West Africa, the book is an exercise in methodology in which the aim has been to evolve ways of documenting and comparing two major aspects of conjugal family relationships: the division of labour, resources and power between spouses, and the extent to which the conjugal family is a functionally discrete unit in a number of domestic activity areas. This documentation and analysis leads to the examination of marital continuity and change among urban migrants from a region characterised by matrilineal descent and inheritance.

Performing Worlds considers the natural resources, landscapes and stagecraft that viewers might have seen in ballets for Christine of France (1606-63), daughter of Marie de Médicis and regent of the Duchy of Savoy, at her court in Turin. It focuses on large commemorative drawings that reanimate the dancers’ movements and the transformations of materials and environments—local and global—staged to promote Savoy’s trading interests to European audiences. Imagine dancers from Venezuela coiling tobacco ropes as they twirl, women from Savoy spinning purple linen before miniature Alpine flax fields, and divers from Sri Lanka retrieving pearls with stones and ropes in a room turned into a majestic seascape. By focusing on three ballets and the resources performed therein – tobacco, the colour gris-de-lin and pearls – the volume probes the transformative potential of these performances: how they transmuted environments into resources and desirable goods, and unruly historical dynamics into ideal landscapes and graceful dance steps.

She was lucky the bullet hit her lung and not her heart. They inserted a breathing tube down her throat which they connected to the respirator machine. She was also connected to a machine to monitor her vital signs. Her blood was typed and cross-matched immediately; a bag of life-sustaining blood was placed on the bag hanger and released to flow. The bag of glucose and water, which was attached to her IV, was hung next to the bag of blood. She had lost three to four pints of blood while lying at the feet of her assailant. Dr. Asuncion operated on her left lung where the bullet had made a gaping hole by making an incision through her left side. He inserted a chest tube into her lung to drain the blood out. After several hours of touch-and-go surgery, he finally finished. Success "We lost her there for a minute, but we got her back with the help of God, some great nurses, interns, and her own will to live. Now that's what I call teamwork. Next time, let's not cut it so close. I don't like to sweat," Dr. Asuncion said, smiling calmly, addressing all the people in the operating room. Let me introduce you to the victim of that near fatal shooting. I am Christi Golden. I'd like to take you back exactly four years ago and start from the beginning.

This book offers a practical, methodological guide to conducting arts-based research with children by drawing on five years of the authors’ experience carrying out arts-based research with children in Australia and the UK. Based on the Australian Research Council-funded Interfaith Childhoods project, the authors describe methods of engaging communities and making data with children that foreground children’s experiences and worldviews through making, being with, and viewing art. Framing these methods of doing, seeing, being, and believing through art as modes of understanding children’s strategies for negotiating personal identities and values, this book explores the value of arts-based research as a means of obtaining complex information about children’s life worlds that can be difficult to express verbally.

In a one-of-a-kind collaboration, seventeen of the most recognizable YA writers—including Shaun David Hutchinson, Neal and Brendan Shusterman, and Beth Revis—come together to share the viewpoints of a group of students affected by a school shooting. It took only twenty-two minutes for Kirby Matheson to exit his car, march onto the school grounds, enter the gymnasium, and open fire, killing six and injuring five others. But this isn’t a story about the shooting itself. This isn’t about recounting that one unforgettable day. This is about one boy, who had friends, enjoyed reading, playing saxophone in the band, and had never been in trouble before—became a monster capable of entering his school with a loaded gun and firing bullets at his classmates. Each chapter is told from a different victim’s viewpoint, giving insight into who Kirby was and who he’d become. Some are sweet, some are dark; some are seemingly unrelated, about fights or first kisses or late-night parties. This is a book told from multiple perspectives—with one character and one event drawing them all together—by some of YA’s most recognizable names.
