This collection engages with current issues on equal protection in the USA, as seen from the perspectives of leading academics in this area. Contributors with a range of perspectives interrogate the legal, theoretical and factual assumptions which shape case law and consider the extent to which they satisfactorily address contemporary concerns with social hierarchies and norms. Divided into five parts, the study focusses on the connections between equal protection jurisprudence, discrimination in its contemporary manifestations, the implications of identity politics and the moral and political conceptualizations of equality that represent the parameters of debate. Drawing on historical analysis and disciplinary insights of the social sciences, the book bridges the gap between theory and practice. The themes presented and analyses developed are among some of the most contentious currently in America, and will be of interest not just to lawyers and legal academics, but also to inter-disciplinary social science researchers, including sociologists, economists and political scientists.

Toddlerhood is a time of tremendous growth and development. It is also a time of tantrums and conflict. Knowing what constitutes normal toddler behaviour will help you accept and respect this and go a long way towards effective, guilt-free and realistic parenting. Your toddler learns though his senses - to guide him, you need to practise wisdom with sense. Now fully updated and expanded to include the latest relevant research, this ever popular follow up to Baby Sense tells you how to: recognise and understand your toddler's unique sensory profile; manage stimulation to avoid overload; solve bedtime battles with age-appropriate sleep-training; discipline with love and a sense of humour; follow a sensible approach to toilet training; monitor and encourage development; feed your toddler and manage fussy eating in the toddler years; recognise learning disorders for early intervention.

Written by the authors of Baby Sense, this title offers the same simple, sensible solutions to ensure you and your baby will get a good night's sleep by establishing healthy sleeping habits. Learn to set the stage for sleep with realistic expectations; appropriate sensory experiences during the day; the right sleep zone; healthy and sufficient day sleeps; the elimination of hunger or medical reasons for night wakings; good sleep associations to prime your baby for independent night soothing and teach him to re-settle by himself and solutions for separation issues. Sleep sense also offers an age-related trouble-shooting section where desperate parents will find sleep solutions. The sleep sense approach to sleep coaching or training is gentle and based on the natural and age-appropriate capacity your baby has for self calming or soothing, and for separation from you.

Parenting experts and co-authors of the Sense-series books, Meg Faure (OT) and Ann Richardson (Registered Nurse and Midwife) bring you the updated and expanded third edition of their highly acclaimed practical guide to parenting in the first year. Baby sense has, over the years, become the best loved baby care book in South Africa. Many parents call it their `baby bible'. This month sees the launch of its latest edition. The book has a whole new look - cleaner and in line with the rest of the sense series range - but still addresses parents' main concerns with loads of sensible and practical advice: Why is my baby crying? How to get my baby to sleep well; How to meet my baby's nutritional needs, from breastfeeding to solids; How and when to stimulate my baby for optimal development. This edition has new information in some key areas: In recent years there has been a shift in weaning advice for babies and all advice in the book has been updated accordingly; With a shift in access to technology for both parents and babies, the book looks at the effect of technology on development; Allergy advice has also changed and has been updated. We believe the new edition of Baby sense remains true to its original recipe while ensuring parents are up to date with the latest guidelines.

Where individuals protest their independence, their inability to commit or their lack of faith in the institution, against a culture of bestsellers, films, television and magazines all obsessed with the finding, and keeping, of a mate.With clarity Anne Roiphe gives us an unfettered view of an institution which continues to play an important role in all our lives.
