The Lesson of her Death

"There is a fast-growing literature on the causes and consequences of migration within developing countries. Madleina’s study is based on rich empirical material derived from in-depth fieldwork, combined with multi-disciplinary and highly original analytical methods. Her study makes a significant contribution to the literature in this important area of academic research. It enriches the debate among academics, policy-makers and NGOs, on internal migration in developing countries." — Professor Peter Nolan, Founding Director, Centre of Development Studies, University of Cambridge and Director, China Centre, Jesus College, Cambridge, UK
"Migration, Development and Social Change in the Himalayas is a rich book, both in its challenging ideas of contemporary forms of migration and a vivid ethnography of a multi-caste village in the Himalayan state of Uttarakhand in India. Embracing an interdisciplinary, multi-theoretical approach, it drives home the multidimensionality and interconnectedness of various forms of migratory movements. At the same time it addresses deep intergenerational legacies of socio-economic relations and emergent inequalities. Most noteworthy is its contribution to a new perspective on the "left behind" in Migration Studies. The book will be an important reading for scholars across many disciplines, development workers and policy makers." — Professor Ramila Bisht, Centre of Social Medicine and Community Health, School of Social Sciences, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, India
"One very important feature of Dr Madleina Daehnhardt’s research, among others, is the incorporation of immobility and non-migration into the field of human migration. By highlighting the dynamics of movers and non-movers alike, she develops a comprehensive field of study where no one is left out, contributing to enriching the understanding of the migration phenomenon. Indeed, the socio-economic reasons for not moving are clearly understated in the policy discourse and hopefully this study will change the ways migration is analysed and studied in the future." —Marina Faetanini, Section Chief, Social and Human Sciences, UNESCO New Delhi, India

"This third edition of Child Psychology, edited by Steinhardt professor emeritus Lawrence Balter and Steinhardt professor Catherine Tamis-LaMonda, continues the tradition of showcasing cutting-edge research in the field of developmental science, including individual differences, dynamic systems and processes, and contexts of development."- NYU Research Digest
'The field of child development is so fast moving that this third—and very much revised—edition of this well-regarded volume is most welcome. The scholars contributing chapters are top notch and the organization of the volume makes it easily accessible to those especially　interested in particular developmental periods (infancy, childhood, adolescence). By covering specific topics within these periods, a reader can follow the developmental course of subjects like learning, cognition, and social and emotional development. The section on ecological influences is especially significant, calling attention to topics like the family, the neighborhood, and ethnic/racial variation across developmental epochs. I recommend this book highly to those interested in child development in the modern world.' – Jay Belsky, Robert M. and Natalie Reid Dorn Professor, University of California, Davis

'What criteria does one seek in an advanced developmental volume? Presumably, breadth, depth, accuracy, and contemporaneity: breadth to cover the range of issues with which child psychology is concerned, depth to bring home to the reader the complexities underpinning those issues, accuracy in display of technical quality, and contemporaneity to convey a sense of present-day excitement about the science. Normally, these criteria are very difficult to achieve between one set of covers. Here, Balter and Tamis-LeMonda have designed a book with the apposite breadth, and recruited talented scholars to plumb the depths of significant issues in the field with scientific rigor and a distinctive "in the moment" feeling. That the editors have steered their contributors to readability and comprehensibility beyond those four criteria is a value-added achievement in this third edition of Child Psychology—their own crowning contribution to advancing developmental science.' – Marc H. Bornstein, Editor, Parenting: Science and Practice
'Transformative change in science requires transformational change in how scientists conceptualize natural and built environments. This third edition of Child Psychology continues the editors’ journey to effect such change. A new cast of authors contribute to a volume that gives reality to the adage that "three is a charm." Through persistent and expanded attention to individual differences and context effects on developmental process, to change stimulated by systemic organization and reorganization, and to methodological innovations inclusive of broader views of epistemology, the editors and authors challenge readers to join the quest to truly understand human development from infancy through adolescence.' – Hiram E. Fitzgerald, University Distinguished Professor, Michigan State University

'Written by some of the most prominent researchers, this book offers rich, comprehensive, and up-to-date coverage of the key themes in cognitive, emotional, and social development from infancy to adolescence. It is highly recommended as a valuable resource for developmental psychologists, scholars, and graduate students.' – Grazyna Kochanska, Stuit Professor of Developmental Psychology, University of Iowa

'This is the kind of anthology that inspired me as a student, and continues to inspire me as a scientist. Child Psychology is a compendium of state-of-the-art writings about cutting-edge issues in developmental science, thoughtfully curated to reflect central themes of the field, and filled with contributions from leading scholars of developmental science. Seasoned developmental researchers and their students will be richly rewarded by this volume.' – Ross A. Thompson, Distinguished Professor of Psychology, University of California, Davis

"Investigating healthcare fraud is a challenge for both the rookie and experienced investigator. Success requires knowledge of how our healthcare system works and of the broad range of potential fraud schemes unique to healthcare, along with solid investigative techniques and skills. Charles Piper’s excellent book, Healthcare Fraud Investigation Guidebook covers all of these topics and more, providing investigators with the practical information they need to meet the challenge. A copy of Charles Piper’s Healthcare Fraud Investigation Guidebook should be on every healthcare fraud investigator’s desk."—Louis Saccoccio, JD, Chief Executive Officer, National Health Care Anti-Fraud Association "Healthcare fraud is so enormous that no one can accurately estimate what the total cost is. And, it costs all of us. Everyone reading this sentence is the victim of healthcare fraud through higher medical fees, increased premiums, and tax hikes.

Many professional fraud fighters should benefit from this publication."—Richard L. Messersmith, (Retired) Resident Agent in Charge, Defense Criminal Investigative Service, Department of Defense Inspector General; (Retired) Special Agent, Air Force Office of Special Investigations"Fraud is everywhere, but due to the unique nature of the healthcare industry, it provides even more opportunities for fraudulent actions by those with unscrupulous motives. To fight healthcare fraud, you have to understand what is normal in the business of medicine in order to recognize the abnormal. Charles Piper’s Healthcare Fraud Investigation Guidebook has succeeded in providing the necessary groundwork as well as guidelines for the requirements that may be needed to successfully investigate various fraud in the healthcare industry."—Belinda M.

First, Piper possesses significant fraud investigative experience, and a well-developed approach to fraud investigations. Second, his understanding of healthcare fraud is likely at a level few have attained in their careers.

'This is a rich, smorgasbord of a book… The book offers an important and insightful contribution to the literature and is a ‘should read’ (ethically important) for anyone who is charged with teaching evidence-based practice to nurses or attempting to implement it in their institutional settings... Among the strengths of this book is its in-depth, nuanced and critical exploration of EBP and its role in meeting nursing goals and patient goods. Each author draws on his or her own prior scholarship and background to explore or parse particular aspects of EBP. The complexity involved in the concept of EBP is highlighted in a way that is not available in any other publication of which I am aware.' - Pam Grace, Nursing Philosophy(Vol 17, Issue 2, April 2016)

'Life in the modern world is ruled and shaped by evidence. This book examines exactly what we mean by evidence. It is an engaging read for researchers and practitioners willing to grapple with what often are the grey areas surrounding the implementation of the most up-to-date clinical evidence and to consider innovative ways of achieving best practice. It makes a valuable contribution to the emerging literature taking a critical approach to EBP.'- Dr Catherine O'Neill, Nursing Times
