The United States may have a puritanical past, but the 21st century
is wide open to diverse gender expression and romance. Good Sex is
the manifesto-or Manisexto, if you will-for this cultural
revolution. Same-sex marriage is legal, the #MeToo movement has
exploded, colleges nationwide now teach consent-based sexual
health, the media celebrates body positivity, and transgender
visibility has become mainstream. Defining "good sex" as both
ethical and pleasurable, Catherine M. Roach features such topics as
equity, intersectionality, and shared pleasure while offering a
lively discussion that is inclusively feminist, queer-friendly, and
sex-positive without being divisive. An accessible guidebook, Good
Sex provides hope that America's sexual, gender, and racial
injustices can be addressed together. After all, this new gender
and sexual revolution strengthens the pursuit of happiness and
love. Welcome to the revolution!
Ancient Greek philosophers, medieval theologians, Enlightenment
thinkers, and contemporary humanists alike have debated various
aspects of human sexuality, including its purpose, permissibility,
normalcy, and risk. Philosophizing About Sex provides a
philosophical guide to those longstanding and important debates.
Each chapter takes a general issue (freedom, privacy,
objectification, etc.) and shows how ongoing public discussions of
sexuality can be illuminated by careful philosophical
investigation. Debates over "sexting," sexual assault, sexual
orientation, sex education, prostitution, and so on involve larger
questions about morality, law, science, and politics, and cannot be
intelligently discussed in isolation from broader issues. By asking
deceptively simple questions, this book shows how complex the
personal and social aspects of human sexuality truly are.
Volume 1 of the Child Maltreatment Assessment focuses on supplying
the reader with the skills to identify and respond to the physical
indicators of child maltreatment. With its inclusion of 17 case
studies and dozens of high-quality images, this assessment serves
to help readers differentiate between abusive and nonabusive
injuries. Chapters include topics pertaining to different forms of
physical abuse, such as skeletal injuries, abusive head trauma, and
how to respond to pediatric poisoning cases. By seeing examples of
abusive scenarios and injuries they may encounter in the field,
professionals and students alike will be better prepared to respond
to cases of maltreatment in the future. Each workbook in the Child
Maltreatment Assessment series will also feature both a test
section and photographic atlas at the back of the book. Using this
assessment, the reader can review and apply the knowledge they have
gained from the chapters within, making this text ideal for
self-study or classroom settings. The photographic atlas will
contain an additional 80 high-quality images with accompanying case
histories.
Volume 2 of the Child Maltreatment Assessment serves to help
readers identify and interpret sexual, emotional, and psychological
forms of abuse in children by providing chapters on the topics of
sexual abuse, neglect and abandonment, torture, and more. While
sexual abuse typically has some physical indicators, many cases of
emotional and psychological abuse do not. By providing detailed
examples and descriptions of abusive scenarios and injuries that
readers may encounter in the field, this workbook aims to better
prepare experienced professionals and students alike. This
assessment is supplemented with 16 case studies and dozens of
full-color clinical images, guiding readers through the potential
indicators of sexual, emotional, or psychological abuse, better
preparing them to respond to cases of maltreatment in the future.
Each workbook in the Child Maltreatment Assessment series will also

images with accompanying case histories.
