Deviant Behavior

Deviant Behavior

J.A. Humphrey; S. Palmer

Kluwer Academic/Plenum Publishers
1990
nidottu
This book is for the student in the introductory course on deviant be­ havior and in related courses. A wide range of ideas and facts is set forth in a way that should be comprehensible to the student without prior knowledge of this area of study. In Chapter 1, "The Nature of Deviance," various ways of defining deviance are explored and one is settled upon: Deviance is behavior that is unusual, not typical, in a society or group. Chapter 2 is devoted to a preliminary consideration of several main currents of social thought that seek to explain why deviance comes about and is perpetrated. These explanations fall into four broad theo­ retical categories. First, there are those theories that view the major sources of deviance as having to do with the extent to which individ­ uals are bound into or dissociated from the group; these are termed social integration theories. Second, there are the cultural support the­ ories, which specify that there are subcultures of deviance, that is, bod­ ies of customs and values that advocate a given form of deviance and are socially transmitted from one person to another through the learn­ ing process. Third, there are social disorganization and conflict theo­ ries, which focus on the ways in which a lack of group organization and the presence of broad social and cultural conflicts bring about de­ viance.

Memories of a Former Sweet Southern Woman: A Collection of Works by J.B. Palmer

Memories of a Former Sweet Southern Woman: A Collection of Works by J.B. Palmer

J. B. Palmer

Independently Published
2019
nidottu
Let yourself be swept away into this bucolic narrative, with stories woven by life, tempered by family, and proofed by hindsight. This is a collection of articles, written by columnist J.B. Palmer, carefully selected and placed to tell the story of her life. Hers was not a life of glamour, not a life of serendipity, but one most of us would identify with. Through the stories she tells us, we come to understand her modest upbringings in the 1950's, the sins of southern repression, the sadness of innocence lost, the defeat of a mid-life divorce, the glory of rebirth, and how family, and a sense of humor, binds us to happiness throughout.

A Hidden Wholeness

A Hidden Wholeness

Parker J. Palmer

JOHN WILEY SONS INC
2024
sidottu
A wise, heartfelt, and compelling guide to our quest for wholeness in a broken world A Hidden Wholeness—now in its 20th Anniversary Edition, with a new Introduction by bestselling author Parker J. Palmer—has helped people in every walk of life rise to the challenge of living “divided no more.” What leads us to live divided lives that defy our own sense of identity and integrity? When we do, what price do we and the world pay? How can we recover the wholeness that is our birthright gift? Palmer examines the forces that deflect us from the soul's true north and gives us the tools we need to regain our bearings. Mapping an inner journey to be taken in solitude and community, Palmer explores perspectives and practices that can help us embody integrity in a world where it often feels risky to be who we are. As we learn how to be present to others in spaces where it's safe for the soul to speak (aka “circles of trust”), we find ways to rejoin soul and role in our personal, vocational, and public lives. Inspired by A Hidden Wholeness—and by the work of the Center for Courage & Renewal, a nonprofit Palmer founded in the late 1990s—tens of thousands of people have participated in circles of trust to deepen their sense of “true self” and contribute to the common good in the places where they live and work. To support readers in developing these practices, the book comes with an online “Study Guide for Readers and Group Leaders,” including author videos, available free at the Center's website. In the midst of our broken world, the principles and practices in this book can ground us in the “hidden wholeness,” giving us a place to stand as we seek to live with deeper integrity at every level of our lives.
