Manufacturing has given way to a technology-driven, information-based workplace. People are working until later in life and the pool of workers is growing more diverse. Flexible hours and telecommuting are increasingly common. This volume addresses the challenges confronting an aging labor force as it deals with profound shifts in employment and organizations and what these changes mean for society. Drawing from the varied fields of gerontology, psychology, public policy, occupational health and safety, human factors engineering, and business, the contributors summarize what is known about aging and employment, discuss likely future issues, and raise specific questions for researchers and policy makers to address to prepare places of employment and the workforce for a vastly different tomorrow. The first section explains employment and demographic trends from an academic perspective and includes information about altered work patterns among older employees. The second section provides both public policy and business-oriented views on how to better integrate aging employees into the workplace. In the third section, the contributors explore how technology, new employment practices, and entrepreneurship play into the new and evolving nature of work. Section four examines employers' expectations for older employees, and the fifth section assesses current ergonomic standards and the adjustments necessary to accommodate an aging labor pool.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480381http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475084Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475084http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475083Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475083http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=479068Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=479068http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475368Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475368http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=479070Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=479070http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=490390Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=490390http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=492754Description: Linking the personal and the institutional, the author locates the problem of child sexual abuse not just in individual pathology, but also within larger systemic factors, such as the very institution of priesthood itself, the Catholic take on sexuality, clerical culture, power relations, governance structures of the Catholic Church, the process of formation for priesthood and religious life, and the complex manner in which these factors coalesce to create serious institutional risks for boundary violations, including child sexual abuse.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=492754http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=490387Description: With its unique human-rights perspective on the study of childhood victimization and an innovative, child-inclusive restorative justice model, this book promises to be a touchstone for practitioners, policymakers, and researchers concerned with children's well-being in the aftermath of crime and violence.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=490387http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=479920Description: Describing what happens to human service delivery programs under the impact of unrelenting stress and multiple losses.

Many are convinced that the history of orphanages is a social welfare record of total devastation to the lives of the children who grew up in them. Indeed, many of the scholars who contributed to Home Away From Home began their research with the conventional negative view of orphanages. But they arrived at far more balanced assessments of the historical record: while the orphanages studied were not perfect, they were often good solutions to dire conditions for children. The future of America's most vulnerable citizens is on the line, says Richard B. McKenzie, the editor of this volume. Today's government-run child welfare system is detrimental to tens of thousands of children. Foster care, intended as a temporary solution, has turned into permanent but inadequate care for many. While adoption is a solution for some children, others are difficult to place or legally unavailable for permanent placement. In re-examining the surprising success of orphanages in the past, Home Away From Home highlights the great value of providing a truly stable environment for youngsters, and it explains how orphanages might again be a powerfully beneficial social institution.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480067http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475079Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475079http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475372Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475372http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=479069Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=479069http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480066Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480066http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475903Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475903http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=490386Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=490386http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=490384Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=490384http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475078Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475078http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475077Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475077http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475076Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475076http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475075Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475075http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475074Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475074http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475073Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475073http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=503261Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=503261http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475900Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475900http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=479921Description: This pocket guide presents a reader-friendly introduction to narrative inquiry.

Gail Sheehy, who has chronicled every major turning point for twentieth-century Americans, as well as reported on everything from politics to sexuality, knows firsthand the trials, fears, and rare joys of caregiving. Here, she takes you by the hand and shows you that you will get through this, and you will do the right things. Sheehy identifies eight crucial stages of caregiving and offers insight for successfully navigating each one. Most important, however, she points out that you don't have to be alone in this process. This book can help turn a stressful, life-altering situation into a journey that can be safely navigated and from which everyone can benefit.--From publisher description.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475370http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475708Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475708http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475072Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475072http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=476007Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=476007http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=490389Description: This text presents findings from research on the intersection of poverty and men's coercive control of their wives and girlfriends.

Many in the United States saw the welfare reforms of 1996 as the inevitable result of twelve years of conservative retrenchment in American social policy, but there is evidence that the seeds of this change were sown long before the Reagan Revolution- and not necessarily by the Right. Historian Marisa Chappell provides a fresh look at the national debate about poverty, welfare, and economic rights from the 1960s through the mid-1990s. In Chappell's telling, we experience the debate over welfare from multiple perspectives, including those of conservatives of several types, liberal antipoverty experts, national liberal organizations, labor, government officials, feminists of various persuasions, and poor women themselves.http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480407http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475062Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=475062http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480377Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480377http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=503598Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=503598http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480376Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=480376http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=490385Description: http://pilot.passhe.edu:8031/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?bbid=490385
