Readers will learn how garments were constructed and where their inspiration stemmed from at key points in history – as well as how menswear has varied in type, cut, detailing and popularity according to the occasion and the class, age and social status of the wearer. This lavishly illustrated book is the ideal tool for anyone who has ever wanted to know their Chesterfield from their Ulster coat. Equipping the reader with all the information they need to ‘read’ menswear, this is the ultimate guide for students, researchers, and anyone interested in historical fashion.

Описание: Could you have avoided costly mistakes in your life if you knew then what you know now? If you could make the outcome of one of your most crucial life decisions more positive, would you do it? A great number of people would seize the opportunity to make a good decision even better. That's one of the reasons many gravitated to Living a Richer Life: Getting the Most out of Life's Gifts and Circumstances. In their first book, Earl Cobb and his wife, Dr. Charlotte Grant-Cobb, constructed the Life Enrichment Model to provide you with a tool to enhance your ability to more consciously respond to major circumstances in your life. In developing the model, however, Charlotte and Earl noted that even the best tools can't give you peace in the midst of a crisis. So in their sequel, God's Goodness and Our Mindfulness, the Cobbs, for the first time, share the source of their belief that "responding versus reacting to life's most challenging circumstances results in more positive outcomes." In their usual, instructive and descriptive manner, Earl and Charlotte illustrate, through the use of two of the most preeminent stories in the Bible, the importance of recognizing God's goodness and responding mindfully when confronting life altering circumstances. By reading this book you will be encouraged by knowing that (a) God's Goodness always reveals the magnitude of the circumstance and (b) responding mindfully to all circumstances in your life invites God's presence and grace. Furthermore, you will be fortified by the presentation of uplifting narratives that demonstrate the application of faith and mindfulness to crucial life altering circumstances. Additionally, you will be presented with the opportunity to learn more about the consciousness-enhancing nature of the Life Enrichment Model and how to properly apply the model to a potentially life changing circumstance in your life.

Описание: Social Welfare Policy: Responding to a Changing World is a topical, comprehensive introduction to social welfare policy. It uses a contemporary framework that explicitly addresses three forces that have redefined the social policy arena: the growth of the information economy, the rise of globalization, and our current environmental crisis. This framework is applied to the six traditional arenas of policy--child and family services, health and mental health, poverty and inequality, housing and community development, crime and violence, and aging, and explores how to find solutions to both long enduring and brand new problems. John McNutt and Richard Hoefer's introductory text represents a move forward in social welfare policy thinking that is built on the latest scholarship and teaches students that the time to create social policies for the future is in the present.
Описание: This is a story about aging in place in a world of global movement. Around the world, many older people have stayed still but have been profoundly impacted by the movement of others. Without migrating themselves, many older people now live in a far "different country" than the one of their memories. Recently, the Brexit vote and the 2016 election of Trump have re-enforced prevalent stereotypes of "the racist older person". This book challenges simplified images of the old as racist, nostalgic and resistant to change by taking a deeper, more nuanced look at older people's complex relationship with the diversity and multiculturalism that has grown and developed around them. Aging in a Changing World takes a look at how some older people in New Zealand have been responding to and interacting with the new multiculturalism they now encounter in their daily lives. Through their unhurried, micro, daily interactions with immigrants, they quietly emerge as agents of the very social change they are assumed to oppose.

Today, we live in changing times and how we respond to these changes creates some uneasiness in our daily lives. Some of these changes reflect demographic shifts in power and paradigm in the United States, while others reflect the reckless assumption that our problems are insurmountable. Multiculturalism Still Matters in Education and Society: Responding to Changing Times urges us to collaborate, consult, and cooperate for our common good. It rightly emphasizes that multiculturalism will always matter in whatever we do in our complex world. In addition, it challenges us to continue to see differences as strengths that must be valued in dealing with our students, educational professionals, leaders, and communities. Finally, this book inspires us to expand our discourses, create avenues for "hearty" conversations, look for ways to make invisible voices visible, and help culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) and vulnerable populations to maximize their fullest potential.
