Intersectionality and Crisis Management: A Path to Social Equity
aims to embed the social equity discourse into crisis management
while exploring the potential of a new tool, the Integrative Crisis
Management Model. Leaders and managers navigate a complex and
networked environment of policy-making and action, frequently
occurring in real time, under constant media exposure. The
pervasive availability of this news on all platforms and devices
produces a lingering anxiety about the inevitability of danger.
Consequently, crisis affords a time-sensitive exploration of
management practices and sheds a critical spotlight on deficiencies
that may yield novel approaches to doing business. As the book
engages contributing authors who are foremost in their field, it
also includes practitioners, students, and junior scholars in a
creative new discourse about equity. Bringing these diverse voices
together in one volume presents a unique opportunity to generate
new insights. Intersectionality provides a framework for
understanding how categorizations of people drive social constructs
of discrimination and oppression. Each chapter covers a different
subject-exploring intersectionality in healthcare, non-profit
management, and human resources-and is accompanied by discussion
questions. The book provides something for the classroom, for
practitioners, and for scholars who want to include more
intersectional thinking into their work.
The present volume in our annual review series reviews a wide range
of developments, giving a broad interpretation to the "technology"
of our title. Starting at the beginning, Science, we have the
review of basic nuclear physics data of Walker and Weaver for
reactor kinetics, particularly, there fore, delayed neutron data.
In the search for better and better accuracy, it is being realized
that this involves the closest scrutiny of fundamental data, given
to us here from the Birmingham school. Associated with this review
of data is the review from Italy by Professor Pacilio and his co
workers of the theory of reactor kinetics in the stochastic form,
and a valuable compilation of the theory underlying a wide range of
practical techniques. Tending more to technology come the papers by
Jervis, reviewing the application of digital computers to the
control of large nuclear power stations as developed in both the
united Kingdom and Canada, Pickman's review of the design of fuels
for heavy water reactors, and the account by Ishi kawa and Inabe of
the new Japanese Research Reactor Program, itself initially
directed largely to fuel element studies. The balance of the volume
is made up of more philoso phical contributions to the
practicalities of nuclear power."

For Sara, the loss of her husband, Peter, was unbearable. Soon
after he passed, Peter came to visit, taking her to various places
that only they could go. Her children, refusing to believe that she
was talking to him, assumed that she had dementia. She suffered a
fall, and from that time on never returned to her home.
But while recovering, Sara was able to travel beyond The Veil,
learning beautiful, heartfelt lessons that she was able to bring
back with her and pass on to her children. Peter takes Sara on a
journey both here and to the hereafter. Her life, and those of her
children, is never the same. She finds an abundance of peace and
serenity in a place that is timeless, where unconditional love
creates healing and comfort and where the ravages of dementia
cannot touch her.
Walking among the angels, Sara's desire is for everyone to know
the place, beyond The Veil.

"Because of Sean," the true story of a mother's courage both before
and after the death of her young son, profiles lessons learned and
hope gained--all in the name of God, eternal memories, and
unconditional love.Author Susan Henley never suspected the worst
when her son Sean suddenly developed a fever at a soccer practice.
When the fever persisted after several days, she and Sean visited
the doctor. Suddenly, Henley's world was turned upside down when
she heard the awful word: "leukemia." In a mother's poignant and
loving conversational style, Henley describes the long first night
in the hospital, how she learned to cope with terminal illness,
when she learned that ignorance may be bliss, and how she dealt
with relapse and Sean's last week of life."Because of Sean" is a
sometimes-funny, more often sad, tale of a family's struggle and
spiritual journey through a difficult crisis. Sean's story will
make you laugh and cry, but it will also offer hope and healing
through its most important message: you can survive and re-create
beautiful memories of your child.
