 Melissa Adler, "Cruising the Library: Perversities in the Organization of Knowledge" English | 2017 | ISBN: 0823276368, 082327635X | PDF | pages: 249 | 5.6 mb Cruising the Library offers a highly innovative analysis of the history of sexuality and categories of sexual perversion through a critical examination of the Library of Congress and its cataloging practices. Taking the publication of Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick's Epistemologies of the Closet as emblematic of the Library's inability to account for sexual difference, Melissa Adler embarks upon a detailed critique of how cataloging systems have delimited and proscribed expressions of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, and race in a manner that mirrors psychiatric and sociological attempts to pathologize non-normative sexual practices and civil subjects.

Marshall III, "Crazy Horse Weeps: The Challenge of Being Lakota in White America" English | ISBN: 1682750256 | 2019 | 120 pages | EPUB | 1062 KB For Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota people, historical trauma, chronically underfunded federal programs, and broken promises on the part of the US government have resulted in gaping health, educational, and economic disparities compared to the general population. Crazy Horse Weeps, offers a thorough historical overview of how South Dakota reservations have wound up in these tragic circumstances, showing how discrimination, a disorganized tribal government, and a devastating dissolution of Lakota culture by the US government have transformed the landscape of Native life. Yet these extraordinary challenges, Marshall argues, can be overcome. Focusing on issues of identity and authenticity, he uses his extensive experience in traditional Lakota wisdom to propose a return to traditional tribal values and to outline a plan for a hopeful future.

Randall, Guy Bodenmann, "Couples Coping with Stress: A Cross-Cultural Perspective" English | 2016 | ISBN: 1138906654, 1138906638 | PDF | pages: 351 | 8.4 mb This is the first book that reviews both empirical and clinical applications of how couples jointly cope with stress - dyadic coping - around the globe.

Written by scholars from the particular culture, each chapter provides a conceptual review of the dyadic coping research conducted in their specific cultures, and also provides empirical and clinical recommendations. Additional contributions include how to measure dyadic coping, so others can apply the STM model in other contexts. The latest treatment approaches for therapy and prevention are also highlighted, making this book ideal for professionals interested in expanding their cultural competence when working with couples from various backgrounds.
