Book Description
The intent of his book is to improve the management and operation of the criminal justice systems through public awareness of the dark and corruptive insides of these massive systems. A major goal of his work is to improve the daily treatment of young incarcerated Americans, with the hope of preventing these young people from entering into the adult criminal justice system. Another goal is to improve the training for managers and administrators of these programs so that employees can be better selected, trained, and treated, and so that they can serve as better role models and supervisors for the youth of America. Most criminal misbehavior can be altered and turned in a positive direction, with decent personal treatment and adequate programs for their individual problems. To allow the continued mistreatment of these individuals is to throw away their future and the future of America. Chance has discovered a multitude of problems within these systems through his investigations, inquiries, and handling of thousands of complaints about the sexual abuse, mistreatment, neglect, and exploitation of both the inmates in these systems and the employees who work under unbearable conditions.--Odessa American.

Overcoming Objectification
Author: Ann J. Cahill
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136859306
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
Objectification is a foundational concept in feminist theory, used to analyze such disparate social phenomena as sex work, representation of women's bodies, and sexual harassment. However, there has been an increasing trend among scholars of rejecting and re-evaluating the philosophical assumptions which underpin it. In this work, Cahill suggests an abandonment of the notion of objectification, on the basis of its dependence on a Kantian ideal of personhood. Such an ideal fails to recognize sufficiently the role the body plays in personhood, and thus results in an implicit vilification of the body and sexuality. The problem with the phenomena associated with objectification is not that they render women objects, and therefore not-persons, but rather that they construct feminine subjectivity and sexuality as wholly derivative of masculine subjectivity and sexuality. Women, in other words, are not objectified as much as they are derivatized, turned into a mere reflection or projection of the other. Cahill argues for an ethics of materiality based upon a recognition of difference, thus working toward an ethics of sexuality that is decidedly and simultaneously incarnate and intersubjective.

God's Chosen
Author: G. Grace Small
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1449779875
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 347
Book Description
God's Chosen: Understanding Spiritual Warfare is a book that inspires, encourages and teaches Christians to effectively manage warfare and live victoriously for Christ. It offers Christians a fresh look at the basis of putting on God's full armor and learning to use the means God affords, namely His strength and mighty power. As Believers prepare to fight triumphantly against evil and wicked forces, we come to an understanding of the challenge, purpose and outcome of spiritual warfare. Putting on God's armor and standing firm in Him, amply equips us to fight offensively and defensively. Knowing Jesus fixed the fight in our favor produces confidence to oppose the enemy and remain faithful to God. Through conscious engagement in this fight we win against all odds. In 2005, during prayer, the Holy Spirit inspired me to write this book on spiritual warfare. I was going through a precarious time and as usual, I sought God in prayer and study of the Word. The Holy Spirit led me to Ephesians 6:10-18. As I studied and meditated, God moved me to begin writing on the subject of warfare. During research and study, I discovered there are not enough books addressing this phase of our journey. Therefore, I saw the need to press through varied attacks to produce this important work.

Book Description
The dragons only emerged from their deep caverns when the weather was right, with thick clouds and sweltering heat. It was on such a day that Arlian's home village was destroyed, his family and friends slaughtered. He survived, though, and swore vengeance on the dragons, and on the looters and slavers who had captured him in the ruins. But no one had ever slain a dragon; how could a mere slave hope to do so?

Cultivating a Holy Heart
Author: Clemens Russell
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1973648873
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
Living a holy life centered in God’s word in today’s changing world is becoming more challenging and frustrating for many of Christ’s disciples. The pressure to conform to society and submit to its relaxed morality seems to increase daily in the workplace, in our homes, and even in many of our churches! Some Christians have reacted aggressively to these pressures and in their zeal and passion have moved away from the love and compassion necessary to be effective servants of Christ. Others have retreated into their churches or fellowships, hunkering down to weather the storm but unsure what actions to take. They are just trying to survive but have lost their ability to be the salt and light that this world so desperately needs. Biblical Christians everywhere are in desperate need of a revival of true holiness. This begins with our own personal walk with God. One of the overwhelming needs of believers today is to recapture what the core of Christianity is...having a vibrant, consistent and personal relationship with God. Cultivating a Holy Heart is a daily devotional which can help point us in the right direction. This book will give you simple and sound biblical principles to apply to your own personal walk with God and to inspire you to true, practical holiness.
