DOWNLOAD EBOOKJennifer O'Neill knows all there is to know about life in the fast lane. Even before she skyrocketed to movie stardom at age twenty-two, she had already experienced more than most women twice her age: international modeling at fifteen, marriage at seventeen, and motherhood at nineteen. Then came Summer of '42. If her career was already a dream come true, however, her private nightmare had just begun. The dark years that followed saw scandal and sorrow offset by beauty and style: eight marriages, nine miscarriages, a near-fatal gunshot wound, and three other near-death experiences. Even motherhood proved a painful trial when one of her husbands fell into the abyss of sexual abuse, with Aimee, the eldest of her three children, as his victim. But Jennifer O'Neill is a survivor -- by the grace of God. Now, with her faith intact, she looks back on the roller coaster of her past with an unsparing honesty tempered with compassion, humor, and a new understanding of herself. Her story is an unforgettable drama of a beautiful, intelligent, talented, whimsical, yet deeply troubled woman redeemed in the end by the gift of her spiritual awakening.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe purpose of the book is to present a decade long period of research and experience regarding the author’s healing from sexual abuse. The hope of the book is to provide information and thus offer a measure of assistance to others in their own healing process and those who treat them. If Surviving Survival meets its goals, it would do so by communicating to readers who are survivors that they are not alone in what they have endured and to those caring for and about survivors what particular needs exist for those harmed by sexual abuse. The perspective of one woman’s journey has value in its example and its use of the very principles the book suggests. In this respect Surviving Survival may appeal to survivors, their loved ones and clinicians as the universal and unique aspects of healing are brought forth in the writing.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKHandwashing, as part of basic hygiene, is a no-brainer. Whenever there's an outbreak of a contagious disease, we are advised that the first line of defense is proper handwashing. Nonetheless, many people, including healthcare workers, ignore this advice and routinely fail to wash their hands. Those who neglect to follow proper handwashing protocols put us at risk for serious disease - and even death. In this well-researched book, Wahrman discusses the microbes that live among us, both benign and malevolent. She looks at how ancient cultures dealt with disease and hygiene and how scientific developments led to the germ theory, which laid the foundation for modern hygiene. She investigates hand hygiene in clinical settings, where lapses by medical professionals can lead to serious, even deadly, complications. She explains how microbes found on environmental surfaces can transmit disease and offers strategies to decrease transmission from person to person. The book's final chapter explores initiatives for grappling with ever more complex microbial issues, such as drug resistance and the dangers of residing in an interconnected world, and presents practical advice for hand hygiene and reducing infection. With chapters that conclude with handy reference lists, The Hand Book serves as a road map to safer hands and better hygiene and health. It is essential reading for the general public, healthcare professionals, educators, parents, community leaders, and politicians.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFor women who have experienced domestic violence, proving that you are a “good victim” is no longer enough. Victims must also show that they are recovering, as if domestic violence were a disease: they must transform from “victims” into “survivors.” Women’s access to life-saving resources may even hinge on “good” performances of survivorhood. Through archival and ethnographic research, Paige L. Sweet reveals how trauma discourses and coerced therapy play central roles in women’s lives as they navigate state programs for assistance. Sweet uses an intersectional lens to uncover how “resilience” and “survivorhood” can become coercive and exclusionary forces in women’s lives. With nuance and compassion, The Politics of Surviving wrestles with questions about the gendered nature of the welfare state, the unintended consequences of feminist mobilizations for anti-violence programs, and the women who are left behind by the limited forms of citizenship we offer them.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOn April 6, 1994, the plane carrying the president of Rwanda was shot down. From that moment, 100 days of massacre began, leaving more than 1 million Tutsis dead and nearly 4 million displaced. Dydine Umunyana Anderson was only four years old when the genocide against Tutsis erupted, devastating the fertile "land of milk and honey." Thirty years after the violent onslaught by the Hutus, this testimony confronts us with the wounds of postcolonial Africa and reveals the long process of reconciliation that Rwanda and Dydine have undergone to heal and embrace life.
