BONUS RIGHT AFTER THE CONCLUSION - ACT NOW BEFORE GONE! A not so Civil War Starting in our early school days we read about the Civil War. We learn of the greatest battles, the brave generals, the unprepared troops who valiantly stood up to the opposing forces with honor and dignity.

Often we think of this war as a step in the emancipation of slavery. What many don't realize is that the emancipation was only a byproduct of the war. With tensions brewing for years previous, the "freeing" of the slaves could be seen as a mere tactic in a series of moves to gain support. With violent starts, the war raged on beyond what anyone could have foreseen. There were tales of bravery and of foolishness throughout the war. Through this book you will learn about both tragedy and heroics of the men that led and served. Here's just a few things you'll learn about: - What really happened to trigger the war - McClellen's demise as a general - The truth about the famous "Emancipation Proclamation" - Eyewitness stories and accounts of battles Civil War I: Bull Run to Chancellorsville will take you through a side of American history that some novice historians may be unaware of and put you in a front row seat to some of the more decisive battles.

The Sixth Edition of Together: Communicating Interpersonally brings lead author John Stewart together with award-winning colleagues Karen Zediker and Saskia Witteborn to continue the book's traditional emphasis on contact while adding two additional emphases: ethics and culture. Previous editions emphasized culture as part of an individual's world of meaning and featured an underlying ethical standpoint. The new edition integrates culture and ethics into every aspect of interpersonal communication. Written in student-friendly, conversational language, Together incorporates and applies social construction approaches to interpersonal communication. The text addresses virtually all topics common to basic interpersonal courses and its conceptually unified approach makes the material coherent and easy to grasp. Together lays out a simple but powerful model of interpersonal communication that focuses on communication as collaborative meaning-making. The Sixth Edition features significant improvements, starting with a change in the basic form of the book from a traditional text to a text with readings. A brief "In Other Words" reading has been added to each of the book's twelve chapters, offering alternative voices to the particular chapter's key ideas. Most chapters have been substantially revised, and a new chapter on relationships in cyberspace has been added. Another feature is the way in which Stewart, Zediker, and Witteborn acknowledge their own collaborative process and pique students' interest in the material. Throughout the book, the authors offer personal insights and examples as models for students. Furthermore, real-world questions and comments from former students are incorporated into each chapter to provide additional voices and to respond to the questions raised most often by students. Each chapter closes with an "Applying What You Know" section that encourages students to further integrate the material in relevant ways.

It is clinically categorized through movement disorders, including tremor, muscular stiffness and akinesia.

The cause of PD is still unknown, but both environmental and inherited factors are assumed to have a role in the disease. A separate set of genes whose dysfunctional regulation is significantly linked to the disease. These genes comprise DJ-1, ATP13A2, alpha-synuclein, PTEN induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1), leucine rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) and parkin. In clinical practice, a range of medications are utilized for treating PD, the majority of which work by raising dopamine levels in the midbrain. This book provides significant information to help develop a good understanding of Parkinson's disease. It aims to shed light on clinical aspects and molecular basis of this disease. This book will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.

This book examines the collaborative process that produced the outstanding carving and sculpture on many of the most remarkable buildings of what was Britain's greatest period of wealth and global power. Investigating the processes and methodologies behind these shared artistic endeavours, it reveals the background, education and training of the sculptors, modellers and carvers involved and discusses the relationships between architects and sculptors, the varied nature of their artistic partnerships and the interplay between the two arts in their contrasting control of space and mass. Work by the major architects of the period, including George Gilbert Scott and Alfred Waterhouse, is discussed, as well as their relationship with architectural sculptors Farmer and Brindley. Likewise, the book examines the collaborations between John Belcher and Hamo Thorneycroft and Alfred Drury; Charles Holden and his work with Jacob Epstein and Eric Gill; and Edwin Lutyens, who worked with Derwent Wood and Charles Sergeant Jagger. The emergence and development of Modern architecture and sculpture is traced through the influences of Ruskin, Morris and the European avant-garde.

Three true stories of interracial conflict show how interpersonal racism can be dismantled when conversational partners co-construct uniquenesses, a powerful process everyone can do. A stressful conversation between Isabel and the plumber was transformed from racist abuse to "momentarily family." Ronald and Jennifer progressed from "violent Black rapist" and "lying white bitch" to friends, co-authors, and collaborating social justice advocates. After Robin owned up to her white privilege, Angela comfortably connected with her as a colleague. Dismantling Racism One On One provides a mental model and three ways of listening and speaking that can empower readers to reverse toxic stereotyping. Stories of real conversations illustrate the anti-racist power of specific ways of listening and speaking that we can all practice. Since each of us is unique, we can harness our uniqueness to combat the racism we experience in one-on-one situations. The first step is to understand productive ways to think about dismantling interpersonal racism by storifying, listening dialogically, practicing cultural humility, and being genuinely curious. The second is to mobilize appropriate reflections, choices, and emotions. This how-to guide is proven and powerful, and the overall process is simple: It's the opposite of social stereotyping. (About the Author) John Stewart edited 11 editions of Bridges Not Walls: A Book About Interpersonal Communication, and authored U and Me: Communicating in Moments That Matter, and Personal Communicating and Racial Equity. His research, teaching, and writing at the University of Washington spanned 32 years, and he served the final decade of his career as Vice President for Academic Affairs at the University of Dubuque.
