Now in its second edition, Introduction to Human Development and Family Science was the first text to introduce human development and family studies (HDFS) as inextricably linked areas of study. Pioneers of research paradigms have acknowledged that the family is one setting in which human development occurs, and much work is inherently multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary. This book helps to fortify an understanding of HDFS and subareas within it.Key features include:Chapters aligned with Certified Family Life Educator (CFLE) Guidelines.An applied focus, with vignettes exploring diverse family structures and human experience, a brand-new appendix with helpful tips to encourage the effective utilization of research.Discussion of the wide variety of career paths for HDFS students.Rich pedagogical features, including Challenge: Integration sections, bringing together content from all chapters; Journal Questions, encouraging reflection on content as well as personal experience; and Suggested Resources, listing relevant websites, books, articles, and video links for further study.Incredibly user-friendly, this is essential reading for students new to Human Development and Family Science.A fully developed Instructor and Student Website includes flashcards, self-testing quizzes, and discussion questions for students, as well as activities, lecture slides, test banks, and video recommendations for instructors.
Choreographing the North

Choreographing the North

Bridget Cauthery

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2024

Choreographing the North examines 11 contemporary dance pieces that perform northern culture, landscape, folklore, and ideas of "North."The choreographers, from Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Luxembourg, Australia, and Argentina, translate their real or imagined journeys to the North for stage and/or screen. This book examines the ways Indigenous subjects and subjectivities have been diminished and/or distorted and considers how that diminishment has fuelled misrepresentation both inside and outside the field of contemporary dance. Where Indigenous presence is represented in dances about the North, it is as discarnate storytellers or “everyman” pastoral figures against backdrops of ice and snow. Indigenous presence is there but it is romanticized, caricatured, flattened. Using these works as moving texts Cauthery argues that, in many regards, these dances are colonizing acts that either ignore or erase the land and people upon which they are based. In analyzing and deconstructing these dances, this book acknowledges the land- and culture-based inheritances embedded in and performed through the works themselves.This study will be of great interest to students and scholars in dance studies, theatre and performance studies, and cultural studies, as well as those interested in environmental psychology, human geography, and the expanding field of Arctic humanities.

The Life of a Dreamer: Transitioning from the Pit to the Palace. Remaining steadfast in adversity when what's in you intimidates those around you
God given dreams are more than simply images to casually dismiss as passing moments of inspiration. When the Lord provides revelation through dreams, it is as just as impactful as audible instruction. It is therefore imperative that a person understand when and how God is speaking or has spoken to them though dreams. Moreover, it is just as important to know what to do when He speaks this way.When God wants to show a person his purpose and plan for their life, He will sometimes reveal it to them in a dream. God often dealt with men of God and the prophets of old in the form of dreams. Joseph, Daniel and Ezekiel are just a few of the men whom God communicated with through dreams.Also, whenever there is a dream, there will always be an interpreter. When God gave Nebuchanezzar a dream, he already had Daniel in place. When he gave the Butler, the Baker, and Pharoah a dream, he already had Jospeh in place to reveal to them the interpretation. God is not interested in keeping men in the dark as it relates to their future and destiny, but wants their understanding to be fruitful.Life of a Dreamer empowers individuals to recognize divine dreams, understand the purpose of dreams, and to cultivate the truths dreams contain. Skillful and deliberate handling of God-given dreams, consistently manifests life-changing results, and shows forth the perfect will of God in a glorious fashion.
