Comparative Approaches to Program Planning

Comparative Approaches to Program Planning

F. Ellen Netting; Mary Katherine O'Connor; David P. Fauri

John Wiley Sons Inc
2008
nidottu
"As a practitioner in the field for over thirty years, I have been exposed to endless 'planning' sessions that are prescriptive to the point of being oppressive. Thistext 'gives permission' to the practitioner to allow for emergence, uncertainty, and ambiguity in the planning process. Comparative Approaches to Program Planning provides a guide for the manager, administrator, executive director, strategic planner, and CEO to embrace multiple planning strategies and the understanding of each. This is extremely worthwhile in a dynamic environment and an ever- changing landscape and worldview."—Paul D. McWhinney, ACSW, Director of Social Services City of Richmond, Richmond, Virginia "This is the book I've been waiting for. It provides not only a linear approach to program design, but gives language to the tacit knowledge many planners have of the circular nature of their work. Both linear and circular thinking are important to planning processes and now we have a resource for teaching."—Jon E. Singletary, PhD, MSW, MDiv, Baylor University, School of Social Work The first text on program planning to guide readers in selecting program planning approaches appropriate to setting, culture, and context Valuable for students and practitioners in the social work, public administration, nonprofit management, and community psychology fields, Comparative Approaches to Program Planning provides practical and creative ways to effectively conduct program planning within human service organizations. Written by leaders in the social work education community, this innovative book explores program planning as a multi-layered and complex process. It examines both a traditional linear problem-solving model as well as an alternative emergent approach to program planning, helping professionals to successfully develop and enact effective and culturally competent planning in organizations and communities.

On the Dignity of Society

On the Dignity of Society

F. Russell Hittinger; Mary Ann Glendon

THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA PRESS
2024
nidottu
In this collection of essays, Francis Russell Hittinger shows that Catholic social teaching is not only an articulate defense of the dignity of the human person, but perhaps more fundamentally an elucidation of the dignity of society. Indeed, Hittinger enables us to see that one cannot properly defend the dignity of the person without also showing the dignity of societies in which human persons - as naturally familial, political, and ecclesial animals - seek their own perfection in communion with others. Hittinger has been a renowned scholar of Catholic social doctrine for some time now, and the essays presented here are the fruit of his mature thinking on the topic over the course of many years. As each chapter shows, Hittinger's historically important body of work on Catholic moral and social philosophy and theology is rooted in natural law theory and Thomistic philosophy, but also animated by St. Augustine's thought and thus consistently sensitive to historical contexts and arenas for moral and theological disputation. These magisterial essays therefore integrate historical studies of the development of Catholic social teaching with systematic exposition of the theological coherence of that tradition, while also articulating the essential role of philosophy and natural law within both.The volume is divided into three parts. The first part is comprised of six essays on Catholic social teaching, the second part is made up of six essays on natural law and its role in social doctrine, and the third part includes two essays discussing the first principles of the Church's teaching on social issues. This collection will no doubt become a standard in the field of scholarship on Catholic social teaching.

Cognition In Action

Cognition In Action

Alan F. Collins; Philip Levy; Peter E. Morris; Mary M. Smyth

Psychology Press Ltd
1994
nidottu
This revised textbook is designed for undergraduate courses in cognitive psychology. It approaches cognitive psychology by asking what it says about how people carry out everyday activities: how people organize and use their knowledge in order to behave appropriately in the world in which they live.; Each chapter of the book starts with an example and then uses this to introduce some aspect of the overall cognitive system. Through such examples of cognition in action, important components of the cognitive system are identified, and their interrelationships highlighted. Thus the text demonstrates that each part of the cognitive system can only be understood properly in its place in the functioning of the whole.; This edition features increased coverage of neuropsychological and connectionist approaches to cognition.

A Simplified Edition Of The Classic Work Of St. Louis De Montfort Called, "The Secret Of Mary". St. Alphonsus writes: "a single bad book will be sufficient to cause the destruction of a monastery." Pope Pius XII wrote in 1947 at the beatification of Blessed Maria Goretti: "There rises to Our lips the cry of the Saviour: 'Woe to the world because of scandals ' (Matthew 18:7). Woe to those who consciously and deliberately spread corruption-in novels, newspapers, magazines, theaters, films, in a world of immodesty " We at St. Pius X Press are calling for a crusade of good books. We want to restore 1,000 old Catholic books to the market. We ask for your assistance and prayers. This book is a photographic reprint of the original. The original has been inspected and many imperfections in the existing copy have been corrected. At Saint Pius X Press our goal is to remain faithful to the original in both photographic reproductions and in textual reproductions that are reprinted. Photographic reproductions are given a page by page inspection, whereas textual reproductions are proofread to correct any errors in reproduction.

Death Sails the Nile: (A Golden-Age Mystery Reprint)

Death Sails the Nile: (A Golden-Age Mystery Reprint)

F. Burks McKinley; Mary Frances Burks

COACHWHIP PUBLICATIONS

"Imagine nine tourists cooped up on a small, light-draft boat on the Nile, hot and uncomfortable by day, cold by night, suddenly thrown into panic by the knowledge that one of them is a murderer; that even if he desired to, the desperate brute could not leave the boat because of the barrenness of the land about them. So they must associate with the criminal until they could get back to more-populated country."The first murder was that of a beautiful girl as she stood before the hideous statue of Anubis, King of the Dead, in the Sudan, with its rock-hewn tombs of ancient Egypt. Her death was due to the bite of a deadly asp, which had been placed in her jacket pocket. Then came the murder of a native deck steward, who seemingly knew too much. And still there was no actual knowledge of who had been the criminal. Each passenger suspected his or her neighbor, even the captain coming under suspicion. And it remained for a young girl, a girl with a newspaper training, to eventually solve the hideous mystery. Mrs.] McKinley has made her story one that is terribly realistic, with much of the enchantment and mystery of Africa, flavoring the tense excitement." (Boston Globe, 1933)F. Burks McKinley was the pseudonym of Mary Frances Burks (1907-1970). Born in Dyer County, Tennessee, Burks attended high school in Nashville and graduated from Vanderbilt University in 1929, receiving a prestigious Founder's Medal, and on the same day she wed academic scholar Silas Bent McKinley. In 1933, she dedicated Death Sails the Nile, which drew on experiences from her honeymoon, to Professor McKinley, although the couple divorced in 1935. Burks, who reclaimed her family name, never remarried nor published another detective novel, despite the wide praise Death Sails the Nile received.For more vintage mystery fiction, visit CoachwhipBooks.com.

Anthony Caro

Anthony Caro

Mary Reid; Karen Wilkin; Julius Bryant; H.F. Westley Smith; Paul Moorhouse

Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd
2010
muu
This is a boxed set of Anthony Caro: Drawing in Space, Anthony Caro: Interior and Exterior, Anthony Caro: Figurative and Narrative Sculpture, Anthony Caro: Small Sculptures and Anthony Caro: Presence. The box has been specially designed by Anthony Caro.Anthony Caro restlessly explored an unpredictable range of sculptural possibilities, testing limits and positing new ideas about the nature of eloquent three-dimensional objects. Through his expansion and transformation of the legacy of construction in metal pioneered by Julio González and Pablo Picasso, and further developed by David Smith in the USA, Caro created a new, multivalent language of three-dimensional abstraction.The Caro pendulum swung between extremes of linearity and robustness, abstractness and allusion. He countered his mastery of line and transparency with investigations of our responses to mass and perceptions of interior and exterior, even experimenting with literally enterable sculptures. He made rigorously abstract constructions that resemble nothing but themselves, intimate table-based pieces, monumental constructions like metaphorical architecture, and complex multi-part cycles of narrative works that pulse in and out of explicit illusionism. And more. The range and variety of Caro's sculpture notwithstanding, there are also common threads that run through all of his work.The five volumes in this set, each by a different critic, examine the various aspects of Caro's evolution individually, tracing the permutations of different themes – narrative, volume and mass, line and openness – throughout his work, over time. Each volume is independent and explores different territory, but cumulatively, by tracing these dominant themes, they provide new insight into the achievement of one of the undisputed giants of Modernist art.
