Fatal Denial
Author: Annie Menzel
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520297202
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 381
Book Description
Fatal Denial argues that over the past 150 years, US health authorities’ explanations of and interventions into Black infant mortality have been characterized by the "biopolitics of racial innocence," a term describing the institutionalized mechanisms in health care and policy that have at once obscured, enabled, and perpetuated systemic infanticide by blaming Black mothers and communities themselves. Following Black feminist scholarship demonstrating that the commodification and theft of Black women’s reproductive bodies, labors, and care is foundational to US racial capitalism, Annie Menzel posits that the polity has made Black infants vulnerable to preventable death. Drawing on key Black political thought and praxis around infant mortality—from W.E.B. Du Bois and Mary Church Terrell to Black midwives and birth workers—this work also tracks continued refusals to acknowledge this routinized reproductive violence, illuminating both a rich history of care and the possibility of more transformative futures.

Science Denial
Author: Gale M. Sinatra
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190944684
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
"Science doubt, resistance, and denial are not new. Galileo challenged the prevailing geocentric view of our solar system and was dismissed as a heretic. What is the history of science denial, what's different now, and why does it seem worse? In this opening chapter, What is the Problem and Why Does it Matter? Sinatra and Hofer chart the development of this problem, examine how doubt has also been manufactured, and explain how media attempts at "balance" can become a form of bias. While acknowledging the limits and fallibility of science, they argue that if the US is to be a leader in sustainable economic and social progress, a greater percentage of Americans need to value, understand, and accept scientific methods and findings. When so many US citizens deny science, the health and wellbeing of Americans and our hopes for a sustainable future are put in peril."--

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
We're uncomfortable talking about it. We may try to ignore it or focus our attention on euphemisms: challenges, weaknesses to overcome, struggles, etc. We convince ourselves that the evil in the world is caused by sick people who are nothing like us. "Sin is real," write the authors of this best-selling workbook. "It’s a part of each of us—even those in the church…All social ills are an extension of that which seethes and rages and contorts in the hearts of individuals." The Workbook on the Seven Deadly Sins illustrates how sloth, lust, anger, pride, envy, gluttony, and greed are ever-present in individual lives and society. This 8-week study for individuals or groups is soundly rooted in scripture and helpful without being judgmental. Become more aware of the expressions of sin in your own life. Discover how Christ brings new life and can deliver you from the impulses that get between you and God.

Vietnam
Author: Jacob D. Lindy
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 9780876304716
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 388
Book Description
"Vietnam : a casebook" is the result of a collaborative project among three groups : veterans with PTSD, clinicians from the Cincinnati Center for Psychoanalysis, and researchers from the University of Cincinnati Traumatic Stress Study Center. Part I presents seven detailed case studies, each one offering a vivid portrayal of the particular veterans, mostly in his own words, and each one focusing on a specific psycho-pathological feature of PTSD; psychic numbing, developmental arrest, intrusive phenomena, somatoform illness, emergency dyscontrol, paranoia, and dissociative phenomena. Part II describes clinical aspects of the veteran-therapist relationship basing its discussion not only on the seven cases in Part I, but also on all the 37 cases studied in the project. Part III addresses research issues in the treatment project, including a description of current instruments for PTSD and a new one, the Cincinnati Stress Response Schedule, developed by the research team; comparative combat experience and psychological functioning of the treatment sample and other survivor populations ; treatment efficacy and clinical implications ; and observations regarding intrapsychic changes in the veterans upon completion of treatment.
