Paula was a strong and determined woman. Born in Germany in 1903, she survived war and famine, and obtained her medical degree in Heidelberg. She specialized in pediatrics and dermatology. She suffered Nazi persecution for marrying Paul, who was Jewish. She endured the trials of emigration to a strange country, re-writing her medical exams, and building a new career as a physician and teacher. She persevered to become an assistant professor at McGill University, and a consulting specialist to area hospitals. She was elected a Fellow of the Canadian Dermatological Association and President of the Montreal Dermatological Society in an era when women were not readily accepted into medicine. She became President of the prestigious Ladies' Morning Music Club and was instrumental in introducing chamber music to the English community in a city where the arts were mainly recognized and appreciated by the French population. She endured the premature loss of her beloved husband and practiced as a dermato-histopathologist until her retirement at the age of eighty-eight. A Royal Victoria Hospital laboratory was named in her honour. She died in her 99th year.

Set largely on the Caribbean island of Dominica, with brief excursions to Malta and the United Kingdom, this book tells the story of a strong, sophisticated woman who returns to her native country to confront the man who abused her as a child. However, nothing goes to plan: an unexpected hurricane leaves her stranded on the island and, once again, she falls victim to the man she loathes.Steeped in local tradition and teeming with authentic island stories, 'Taming A Hurricane' is more than a piece of literary entertainment: It is a window through which we observe tortured characters wading through life's vicissitudes searching for peace. Some never find it.

1995 and Beyond: A Concise Prophecy of 21st Century World Events

What's Behind, 1995 and Beyond? I introduced this book in January 1995 after a prophecy I received in the winter of 1994. At that time, the entire world was preoccupied with the close of one millennium and the beginning of another. But as it happened, time changed a decade, a century, and a millennium with little more than fun-filled New Year's celebrations. The year trudged on, and after awhile we all breathed a sigh of relief and went back to business as usual. The world did not end, world systems did not crash, and greatly feared acts of God did not happen. All was well with the world, so fears of apocalyptic retri-butions subsided. The year aged as time marched on, and soon the year 2000 gave way to 2001. It was in this climate that the words of 1995 quietly fulfilled themselves. Open these pages and find out what else is on the horizon for our world and how it will come to pass.

Wildlife Research for a Healthier Future

Life's future on Earth (as we currently know it) deeply depends on an urgent change in our anthropocentric view of natural resources and global health. Beyond wildlife's intrinsic value and our moral duty to preserve it, wildlife research and protection represents a crucial tool to accomplish One Health (human, animal and environmental interconnected health). Mainly focusing on infectious diseases and environmental pollution, this book offers a complete and transdisciplinary approach to the importance of wildlife research to achieve a healthy and sustainable future, for animals and humans. Though being a scientific and pedagogical textbook, it was created with the goal of being possible to read by anyone (from any area). It was designed to provide a theorical introduction to some crucial concepts and to illustrate their importance and practical use on the field of wildlife research and nature conservation. Besides providing a unique and updated approach to the subject, this book aims to stimulate critical reflection of its readers in the area of ecology, One Health and biodiversity conservation, making them people with an informed and structured opinion about these topics.Finally, in a very few words, we hope our readers recognize the importance of wildlife studies under the One Health concept.
In Constitutional Orphan, Professor Paula Monopoli explores the significant role of former suffragists in the constitutional development of the Nineteenth Amendment the woman suffrage amendment ratified in 1920. She sheds new light on the connection between the suffragists as institutional actors in civil society and the emergence of a "thin" conception of the Nineteenth Amendment as a mere nondiscrimination in voting rule, rather than a robust equality norm. In this compelling legal history, Monopoli illuminates how the Nineteenth had implications for federalism, women's citizenship and the definition of equality, as well as how gender, race and class intersect to affect our constitutional development. Monopoli explores the choice by both the National Woman's Party and the National American Woman Suffrage Association to turn away from African American suffragists who were denied the vote even after ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment. Using original sources, legislative history and case analysis, she develops a persuasive theory connecting that moral and strategic failure to the emergence of a narrow interpretation of the amendment. Monopoli also evaluates the impact of class divisions among former suffragist allies. These divisions around support for the NWP's Equal Rights Amendment, found social feminists opposing that "blanket" amendment for fear of its impact on the constitutional validity of protective labor legislation for working-class women. Monopoli details how many state courts, left without federal enforcement legislation to guide them, used strict construction to cabin the emergence of a more robust interpretation of the Nineteenth Amendment, as a broad equality norm. She concludes with an examination of new legal scholarship that suggests ways in which such a robust understanding of the Nineteenth Amendment could be used today to expand gender equality. In this compelling legal history, Monopoli illuminates how gender, race and class intersect to affect our constitutional development.
The Lamaze method is virtually synonymous with natural childbirth in America. In the 1970s, taking Lamaze classes was a common rite of passage to parenthood. The conscious relaxation and patterned breathing techniques touted as a natural and empowering path to the alleviation of pain in childbirth resonated with the feminist and countercultural values of the era. In Lamaze, historian Paula A. Michaels tells the surprising story of the Lamaze method from its origins in the Soviet Union in the 1940s, to its popularization in France in the 1950s, and then to its heyday in the 1960s and 1970s in the US. Michaels shows how, for different reasons, in disparate national contexts, this technique for managing the pain of childbirth without resort to drugs found a following. The Soviet government embraced this method as a panacea to childbirth pain in the face of the material shortages that followed World War II. Heated and sometimes ideologically inflected debates surrounded the Lamaze method as it moved from East to West amid the Cold War. Physicians in France sympathetic to the communist cause helped to export it across the Iron Curtain, but politics alone fails to explain why French women embraced this approach. Arriving on American shores around 1960, the Lamaze method took on new meanings. Initially it offered a path to a safer and more satisfying birth experience, but overtly political considerations came to the fore once again as feminists appropriated it as a way to resist the patriarchal authority of male obstetricians. Drawing on a wealth of archival evidence, Michaels pieces together this complex and fascinating story at the crossroads of the history of politics, medicine, and women. The story of Lamaze illuminates the many contentious issues that swirl around birthing practices in America and Europe. Brimming with insight, Michaels' engaging history offers an instructive intervention in the debate about how to achieve humane, empowering, and safe maternity care for all women.

Founded in 1932, the Perkonkrusts (“Thunder Cross”) was the largest and most prominent right-wing political party in Latvia in the early twentieth century. Its motto—“Latvia for Latvians!”—echoed the ultranationalist rhetoric of similar movements throughout Europe at the time. Unlike the Nazis in Germany or the Fascists in Italy, however, the Perkonkrusts never succeeded in seizing power. Nevertheless, Holocaust historian Paula A. Oppermann argues, its movement left an indelible mark on the country. The antisemitism at the core of the Perkonkrusts’ ideology remained a driving force for Latvian fascists throughout the twentieth century, persisting despite shifting historical and political contexts. Thunder Cross is the most comprehensive study of Latvia’s fascist movement in English to date, and the only work that investigates the often neglected continuities of fascist antisemitism after World War II. Formulated as an empirical case study, this book draws on international and interdisciplinary secondary literature and sources in seven languages to broaden our understanding of fascism, antisemitism, and mass violence from Germany and Italy to the larger European context.
3m, 2f / Platforms, moveable props American College Theatre Festival Winner. Base on the life of Margaret More Roper. The political and ruthless male hierarchies of Henry VIII and the Church are offstage forces imprisoning Meg, a unique woman isolated from her time and environment through the gift and curse of her developed intellect. MEG intertwines several themes and levels: It is the story of Sir Thomas More seen through his daughter's eyes, it's about a young wife and mother - and it's also an exploration of the father-daughter relationship painfully becoming a man-woman one - as Meg discovers "both diminish in size." It's not a history play - rather a play about history - and the ignored role women have played in history.
