This volume discusses why faculty and administrators of academe
should care about implementing family-friendly policies and
practices, as well as how they can advocate for policy changes. In
section one, the book's focus is on empirical studies that
demonstrate the need for innovative programs and policies for
faculty at colleges and universities. These pieces explore issues
such as the value of work/life programs for employee retention, the
need for a variety of family support policies including elder care,
and the influence of workplace culture on the use of existing
policies. Section two includes case studies of the process of
formulating family-friendly policies and their adoption at a
variety of universities. The subjects of these chapters include use
of the Family and Medical Leave Act, the enactment of a parental
leave policy, the development of a unique "life cycle professorship
program," and strategies used to implement new policies. The case
study chapters provide descriptions of the identification of
faculty and staff needs and the process of policy development as
well as advice to faculty and administrators who seek to develop
similar policies at their institutions.
Family forms in the United States are continuing to evolve. Fathers
choosing to stay home to care for their children while their wives

choice shapes their masculine identities and their fathering
styles, and where they find themselves positioned in their
communities. Scholars and students interested in families, gender,
masculinity, and parenting will find this book informative and
engaging for understanding diverse family arrangements.

Music is an essential tool in dementia care. This accessible guide
embraces ways in which music can enhance the daily lives of those
with dementia. It draws on the expertise of practitioners regularly
working in dementia settings, as well as incorporating research on
people with dementia, to help anyone, whether or not they have any
musical skills or experience, to successfully use music in dementia
care. Guiding the reader through accessible activities with
singing, percussion, sounding bowls and other musical tools, the
book shows how music may can be used from the early to late stages
of dementia. This creative outlet can extend to inspire dance,
movement, poetry and imagery. The chapters include creative uses of
technology, such as tablets and personal playlists. The book also
covers general considerations for using music with people living
with dementia in institutional settings, including evaluating and
recording outcomes. Living Well with Dementia through Music is the
perfect go-to guide for music-based activities with people living
with dementia.
