Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

A new edition of a classic text This new edition of Human
Development has been thoroughly revised and updated to incorporate
recent developments in the field. New material is introduced on the
development of a sense of self, the social self and moral
development. Beginning with a discussion of birth and childhood,
the reader is lead through each of the crucial stages in human
development. The authors reveal the intricate interplay between
physical, emotional and psychological factors that contribute to
the individual patterns of development that make each of us unique.
All of the major milestones of life are covered, including
adolescence, work, parenthood and old age. Employing psychoanalytic
theories of development, this book reveals the richness that these
ideas bring to well-known everyday phenomena. This highly
accessible and jargon-free introduction to human development
combines scientific objectivity with a sensitive and sympathetic
approach to the subject. It will prove invaluable to anyone
involved in the helping professions.
The issue of racial disproportionality in the child welfare
system, particularly as it impacts African-American children and
families, has long been a concern to practitioners and
policymakers. However, disproportionality is not limited to the
African-American community. Latino, Native-American,
Asian-American, and Pacific Islander populations experience
inequities in treatment. From leading voices on
culturally-competent care comes a cutting-edge book that examines
disproportionalities across all of these racial and ethnic
groups.
"Eliminating Racial Disproportionality and Disparities"
examines a wide range of systems that often affect and interact
with child welfare. Chapters are devoted to the juvenile justice
system, mental health, the courts, education, and healthcare,
making it the only book to offer a multisystemic approach to
disparities and disproportionality. Filled with in-depth case
studies, key terms, study questions, and resources, and written to
reflect CSWE-mandated competencies, this expansive book gives
students, educators, policymakers, practitioners, and
administrators new knowledge for providing culturally competent
services while simultaneously addressing disproportionality across
various systems of care.
James Joyce's first novel, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
is a Kunstlerroman which chronicles the emotional and intellectual
development of Stephen Dedalus - a character partly based on the
author himself - from his early childhood and his school and
university days all the way to his first forays as a young artist.
Dedalus's thoughts and epiphanies reveal the tensions, insecurities
and feelings of guilt that are the product of living in a country
and period so deeply divided along religious and political lines.
Pioneering an innovative stream-of-consciousness technique
characteristic of early Modernism, and often resorting to mythical,
historical and literary allusion which would find fuller expression
in Ulysses, Joyce's groundbreaking work shocked the readers of its
day and continues to challenge analysis and interpretation.

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is a semi-autobiographical
novel by James Joyc. The story describes the formative years of the
life of Stephen Dedalus, a fictional alter ego of Joyce and an
allusion to the consummate craftsman of Greek mythology, Daedalus.
Joyce's novel traces the intellectual and religio-philosophical
awakening of young Stephen Dedalus as he begins to question and
rebel against the Catholic and Irish conventions with which he has
been raised. One of the greatest novels of the twentieth century.
