To Speak a Defiant Word

&ldquo;O&rsquo;Hara, by many standards, including sales, is one of the most successful writers in the English language. . . . [His character] Joey Evans was a lowlife heel who bragged, charmed, cheated and lied his way into low-watt stardom. But as characters go, he sure lasted.&rdquo; &mdash;Scott Simon, NPR&rsquo;s Weekend Edition&ldquo;As&#160;Mad Men continues to draw big ratings, I sense that O&rsquo;Hara&rsquo;s moment for a really breakout revival . . . may at last be upon us. . . . If this is your first encounter with John O&rsquo;Hara, I can only say, in the words of Joey: &lsquo;Low and behold.&rsquo; &rdquo; &mdash;Thomas Mallon, from the Foreword &ldquo;There can be no doubt but that [Pal Joey is] part of his best work.&rdquo; &mdash;The New York Times&ldquo;O&rsquo;Hara was probably the most gifted writer of dialogue in mid-20th century American fiction. And when he gets around to fracturing dialogue the way people do in real life, he&rsquo;s very funny. He doesn&rsquo;t overdo it. It bounces right up from the page at you. If you read the sentences out loud&mdash;and of course what he did was adapt his book for the stage so they could be read out loud&mdash;they just land on a dime, all of them.&rdquo; &mdash;Thomas Mallon, NPR&rsquo;s Weekend Edition&ldquo;If ever an author was ripe for a critical rebranding, it&rsquo;s John O&rsquo;Hara.&rdquo; &mdash;Jonathan Dee, from the Introduction to&#160;Ten North Frederick&ldquo;O&rsquo;Hara remains one of America&rsquo;s greatest social novelists of the twentieth century. . . . He captured one of the most far-reaching social transformations in American history.&rdquo; &mdash;The Atlantic &ldquo;[O&rsquo;Hara] was as acute a social observer as Fitzgerald, as spare a stylist as Hemingway.&rdquo; &mdash;Los Angeles Times &ldquo;An author I love is John O&rsquo;Hara. . . . I think he's been forgotten by time, but for dialogue lovers, he&rsquo;s a goldmine of inspiration.&rdquo; &mdash;Douglas Coupland,&#160;Shelf Awareness &ldquo;O&rsquo;Hara occupies a unique position in our contemporary literature. . . . He is the only American writer to whom America presents itself as a social scene in the way it once presented itself to Henry James, or France to Proust.&rdquo; &mdash;Lionel Trilling,&#160;The New York Times &#160; &ldquo;Pal Joey is successful as satire, because Mr. O&rsquo;Hara is not afraid to go the whole hog.&rdquo; &mdash;Edmund Wilson, The New Republic

Los Angeles Times bestseller&ldquo;A mix of humor and humanity.&rdquo;&mdash;The Oregonian  &#160; &ldquo;I found myself not merely smiling, but cackling &mdash; and, in turn, tearing up or sighing with sad recognition&hellip; Weedman is skilled at using humor as a way in rather than a diversion. Even and especially at her most hilarious, she&rsquo;s willing to reveal her earnest underbelly.&rdquo;&mdash;Los Angeles Review of Books &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;&#160;&ldquo;Lauren Weedman's Miss Fortune is like a pearl that washed up on a beach full of seaweed, tar balls and plastic six-pack holders. It's a jewel sparkling amid a landscape of literary pollution.&rdquo;&mdash;LA Weekly&ldquo;Miss Fortune is so gloriously smart, deeply funny, and nakedly vulnerable, I missed it after I finished the last page the way one misses the best friend you ever had after she goes away. Lauren Weedman tells her sexiest, saddest, strangest, sweetest stories with a thrillingly unabashed voice that&rsquo;s as charming as it is insightful. I laughed. I cried. I thanked my lucky stars I didn&rsquo;t ever have a threesome with co-workers in the Netherlands. But most of all, I fell in love with Lauren Weedman and the raw and complicated truths she so honestly explores on every page of this absorbing book.&rdquo; &mdash;Cheryl Strayed, New York Times bestselling author of Wild"Weedman's charm and self-deprecating humor easily draw the reader in, and her willingness to tangle with hard truths make this a deeply affecting account of salvaging a life from wreckage."&mdash;Publisher's Weekly"An intelligent, hilarious, and bittersweet collection."&mdash;Kirkus

The healing will come through our old people. These elders were shaped from the land we stand on. And it’s their wisdom that will allow Teachers to seek the truth within themselves. That then makes this book a true teaching tool, one that can perhaps shape that one word that we all seek. Belonging- Boori Monty Pryor, an Award-winning Author 
Teachers not only provide foundational knowledges to support a person’s educational growth for their economic futures and socialisation within the wider society; but they also assist students, their families and communities in creating a lifetime of fond memories with their peers through their engagement in learning and school activities. For First Nation students these are dependent on the teacher’s knowledge of pedagogical practices and curriculum which support and strengthen First Nation students to have sound academic outcomes and culturally respectful and engaging course work. This book provides a practical guide from a diverse range of authors with a breadth of experience in pedagogical practice, curriculum development, community partnerships and dealing with racism, which if used, can assist emerging and professional teachers in appropriate ways to provide positive, active and practical engagement within the classroom and school for First Nation students, their families and communities- Dr Lynette Riley, University of Sydney.
While acknowledging positive systemic policy changes, Marnee Shay and Rhonda Oliver’s edited collection provides positive, productive and practical insights for pre- and in-service teachers towards improving the schooling experiences of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait islander students in all Australians schools. In so doing, they adopt a strength-based approach, which they argue will not only improve schooling for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, but for all Australians. This is a must read for all Australian teachers and teacher educators committed to Reconciliation and more socially just schooling- Professor Bob Lingard, Institute for Learning Sciences & Teacher Education, Australian Catholic University and Emeritus Professor, The University of Queensland.

What works best for Aboriginal students, works best for all -- but the converse is often not correct.　　Bringing the richness of culture, the awareness of heritage, and interests of Aboriginal students to the forefront of teaching means all students benefit.　　Oliver and Shay provide the direction for truly making a difference for Aboriginal, Torres Strait and all students-Laureate Professor John Hattie University of Melbourne Chair, Board of the Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership

From the reviews:“This book focuses on macaques, the most widely distributed and behaviorally flexible nonhuman primate species. … a useful, timely collection of essays highlighting the diversity of the genus and its interface with humans. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals.” (L. Swedell, Choice, Vol. 50 (8), April, 2013)“The Macaque Connection … explores the many ways in which humans and macaques have connected in the past and the present. … The Macaque Connection focuses on providing a rich historical perspective on a wider range of macaque species. The Macaque Connection therefore has greater relevance for historians and cultural anthropologists. … of interest to primatologists––especially macaque researchers.” (Crystal M. Riley, International Journal of Primatology, Vol. 34, 2013)

&ldquo;As one of the few women to do this job, Addario has been able to convey to American readers the texture of life in places they might never otherwise see, entering secret women&rsquo;s schools in Taliban-ruled Afghanistan or taking a portrait of a Congolese woman heavily pregnant by her rapist. Many of the resulting photographs&mdash;here accompanied by essays from Addario and other journalists she&rsquo;s worked with&mdash;are distinguished by their combination of startling intimacy and narrative scope.&rdquo; &mdash;Harper&rsquo;s &ldquo;Striking.&rdquo; &mdash;Mother Jones&ldquo;Spectacular . . . a majestic collection that captures the drama of everyday existence in war zones around the world. With chapters chronicling Afghanistan under Taliban rule, the refugee crisis and women in the military, the volume is a testament to the endurance of humanity . . . There is no disputing the impact of this revelatory collection.&rdquo; &mdash;BookPage&ldquo;This astonishing selection of photos from photojournalist Addario strongly demonstrates her conviction that by risking her life to cover gross injustices she can create visual and visceral proof of human rights violations . . . Addario&rsquo;s photographs are stunning, and this book, which she dedicates to the &lsquo;brave and resilient&rsquo; women and men she&rsquo;s documented, provides unique insight into the vital work of photojournalists.&rdquo; &mdash;Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Of Love & War

Flying Fortress (Corrected Edition)

The intersection of clinical expertise, lived experience, and compassion is where therapeutic magic, otherwise known as sound, evidence-based care that seeks to liberate not pathologize, happens. The clinician authors of "Treating Black Women with Eating Disorders: A Clinician’s Guide" have harnessed that magic and make an invaluable scholarly contribution which broadens the much needed evidence base and knowledge on this topic. A must read for every mental health provider who works withnand cares about the well being of Black women and their self actualization.

Nerine Tatham, MD, General Psychiatrist, Diplomate in Psychiatry, American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.
Dr. Small and Dr. Fuller have compiled an essential reading list about the nuances of treating Black women struggling with eating disorders. This groundbreaking work starts a very necessary conversation that not only expands our understanding of the recognition, assessment and treatment of eating disorders among Black women, but deepens our understanding of the core nature of eating disorders for all as disorders rooted in experiences of marginalization and voicelessness.
Norman H. Kim, PhD, National Director for Program Development, Reasons Eating Disorder Center.
Thirty-eight years after Gilligan’s ground-breaking book "In a Different Voice" asserted that all people aren’t male, Small and Fuller enlighten the eating disorders’ world that all women aren’t Caucasian. Twenty in-depth chapters cover every topic imaginable, written with passion, insight, expertise and lived experience. Research outcomes blend beautifully with poignant case studies and tools for treatment. More than just a "what to do" book, this is a heartfelt treatise on how to "feel", to inhabit another’s world, to broach issues of race and identity and build the therapeutic alliance crucial to providing patients with the quality treatment they deserve.
Adrienne Ressler LMSW, CEDS, F.iaedp, Vice President of Professional Development at The Renfrew Center Foundation
Most clinicians are not trained on the needs of marginalized populations. The authors help to fill that important gap from their extensive experience in the eating disorder field treating Black women, and their own personal experiences as Black clinicians. I hope that all therapists will read this book and strive to improve their cultural humility in their treatment.

Millie Plotkin, MLS, Informationist, Eating Recovery Center
While we know that eating disorders do not discriminate, Black women are virtually invisible in many of the current eating disorder treatment manuals. With this groundbreaking book the authors have substantially enriched the eating disorders field by shining the light on the important work of Black professionals treating Black women suffering from eating disorders. This is an essential read for any eating disorder clinician treating Black women and serves as a helpful resource for all clinicians who desire to increase cultural competence and empathy.

Gayle E. Brooks, PhD, CEDS-S, VP & Chief Clinical Officer, The Renfrew Center of Florida.
