Описание: Silenced Voices: Readings in Violence and Victimization provides students with insightful readings that center on the experiences of women, children, and countless others who are often silenced and victimized in their homes and communities. This anthology features five distinct units. Unit 1 contains readings that discuss the problem of violence and the crises that occur as a result of recurrent victimization. Unit 2 demonstrates how gender roles and patriarchal societies contribute to violence. Unit 3 addresses the influence of substance abuse, neglect, incarceration, and community violence on victimization. Unit 4 contains readings pertaining to violence, victimization, and delinquency among young women and girls. The final unit addresses the victimization of marginalized populations, including the LGBT, homeless, disabled, and elderly communities, and the effect of their status in society on their personal experiences and their ability to overcome. A powerful anthology centered on overcoming trauma, Silenced Voices is well suited for courses that focus on criminology, sociology, and racial, gender, and ethnic relations, as well as those that explore the social problems of gender, race, and ethnicity.
How can the "voiceless" voice be represented? This primary question underpins lshikawa's analysis of selected work by Buraku writer, Nakagami Kenji (1946-1992). In spite of his Buraku background, Nakagami's privilege as a writer made it difficult for him to "hear" and "represent" those voices silenced by mainstream social structures in Japan. This "paradox of representing the silenced voice" is the key theme of the book. Gayatri Spivak theorizes the (im)possibility of representing the voice of "subalterns," those oppressed by imperialism, patriarchy and heteronomativity. Arguing for Burakumin as Japan's "subalterns," Ishikawa draws on Spivak to analyze Nakagami' s texts.
The first half of the book revisits the theme of the transgressive Burakumin man. This section includes analysis of a seldom discussed narrative of a violent man and his silenced wife. The second half of the book focuses on the rarely heard voices of Burakumin women from the Akiyuki trilogy. Satoko, the prostitute, unknowingly commits incest with her half-brother, Akiyuki. The aged Yuki sacrifices her youth in a brothel to feed her fatherless family. The mute Moyo remains traumatized by rape. lshikawa' s close reading of Nakagami's representation of the silenced voices of these sexually stigmatized women is this book's unique contribution to Nakagami scholarship.

Описание: This book offers an excellent introduction to the use of novel therapeutic vaccines for common diseases based on their ability to induce antibody production. While the role of vaccines in the treatment of infectious diseases and cancer is well known, vaccines have also recently been developed for a variety of other conditions, including Alzheimer’s disease, hypertension, diabetes, and spondyloarthritis. These therapeutic advances are fully and clearly documented by acknowledged experts in the field, who explain the relevant biology and highlight the challenges involved in deploying this treatment approach effectively and safely. In addition, recent progress in the construction and delivery of DNA vaccines is documented, and the process of developing new peptide vaccines is explored in depth. While the book will be particularly valuable for researchers and scholars interested in immunotherapy, it will also appeal to clinicians seeking effective new medicines to treat patients suffering from chronic diseases.
Описание: Business-informatiemanagement (BIM) speelt een grote rol in de aansluiting tussen business en IT. In 2001 is voor het eerst een model beschreven voor business-informatiemanagement: BiSL(R) (Business information Services Library). In die tijd was er veelal sprake van watervalsgewijze systeemontwikkeling. Bovendien was de wereld nog lang niet zo gedigitaliseerd als nu en was het samenwerken als partners tussen business en IT nog maar weinig aan de orde.Vanwege de toenemende digitalisering in de wereld om ons heen is een nieuwe versie van BiSL ontwikkeld: BiSL Next. Bestuurders en managers van organisaties willen graag weten waarom een goede governance en een goed management van de informatievoorziening cruciaal zijn voor het effectief kunnen verbeteren en veranderen van de diensten van een organisatie aan haar klanten. BiSL Next, zoals beschreven in het boek `BiSL(R) Next - A Framework for Business Information Management: Improving business performance through better use of information and technology`, geeft veel aandacht aan het vergroten van het inzicht en begrip hierin. Het gaat in op het `waarom` en geeft vervolgens een breed overzicht van het `wat` van business-informatiemanagement. Niet alleen het management van een organisatie moet op de hoogte zijn van het belang van business-informatiemanagement en de ondersteunende rol van BiSL daarin. Het is ook prettig als de medewerkers dit kunnen vertalen naar de daadwerkelijke uitvoering: dat ze weten hoe de principes aansluiten op de dagelijkse praktijk. Dit boek biedt een overzicht van BiSL Next als geheel, gevolgd door een verdieping van de activiteiten en producten op het uitvoerende niveau om een bijdrage te leveren aan de vertaling naar de praktijk.
Описание: In the age of multiple equity movements, it is critical to explore an unspoken nuance--the silencing of women leaders. Carrie Lynn Arnold calls attention to the history and complex dynamics that can suppress a leader's voice while offering solutions for change. Women are taught to speak up, develop confidence, leverage their strengths, polish their interpersonal skills, widen their competencies, and fight to sit at the table. But once they make it to that executive chair, they rarely examine the unspoken dynamics that impact their success. The silencing of female voices is an all too common epidemic, preventing women from harnessing their full capabilities and leading with maximum potential. This phenomenon of isolating women by subduing their voices is a decades-old tradition. It can be impossible to avoid encounters, organizational cultures, and even feelings of self-suppression that all foster silencing. It is no longer about questioning competency or confidence. It is about understanding the complex factors and biases that are deeply embedded in relationships between men and women, amongst women, and within the dynamics of systems and the self that allows for this trend to continue despite growing successes in equity. Carrie Lynn Arnold examines silencing, which is essential to name and recognize, as a pre-requisite to effective leadership. By understanding where we have been before, we may fully appreciate and call attention to where we need to go. Regardless of your gender or whether you are an emerging leader or a CEO of a large corporation, the silencing virus is capable of infecting everyone. Silenced and Sidelined explores what it means to feel suppressed, giving words to the experience so that leaders can begin different types of conversations about voice and leadership. There are no shortcuts or simple, easy steps; this call to leadership is a call for courage. It requires the ability to communicate with a voice that carries currency--one, people will not just hear, but follow. Given the complexity of our world and the challenges society faces, we can no longer afford leaders with silenced voices.

Описание: Explores the poems of Ovid before and after his exile from RomeSilenced Voices is a pointed examination of the loss of speech, exile from community, and memory throughout the literary corpus of the Roman poet Ovid. In his book-length poem Metamorphoses, characters are transformed in ways that include losing their power of human speech. In Tristia and Epistulae ex Ponto, poems written after Ovid’s exile from Rome in 8 CE, he represents himself as also having been transformed, losing his voice.Bartolo A. Natoli provides a unique cross-reading of these works. He examines how the motifs and ideas articulated in the Metamorphoses provide the template for the poet’s representation of his own exile. Ovid depicts his transformation with an eye toward memory, reformulating how his exile would be perceived by his audience. His exilic poems are an attempt to recover the voice he lost and to reconnect with the community of Rome.
