Children and young adults with disabilities possess unique
differences and individual needs, making special education
programming a complex and sometimes challenging process. Leaders in
special education are tasked with overseeing the administration and
management of these programs and must often rely on problem-solving
and decision-making skills to be effective. While many educational
leaders may possess leadership training and experience, they still
are unfamiliar with the intricacies of special education and the
best practices for services for students with disabilities. Cases
on Leadership Dilemmas in Special Education is designed to
challenge the problem-solving skills of special education leaders
by presenting them with multifaceted, thought-provoking, and
practical dilemmas related to special education. This collection of
case studies presents contemporary scenarios that address the
complex issues and dilemmas leaders encounter when developing,
managing, and supporting special education programs and the
students who rely on these services. Covering topics such as
decolonization, parent advocates, and STEM education, this casebook
is a valuable resource for school and district leaders, teacher
leaders and educational coaches, consultants, pre-service
educational leaders, pre-service and in-service school counselors,
pre-service and in-service special educators, librarians,
researchers, and academicians.

Respect for persons, beneficence, and justice are the principles
that collectively form the ethical basis of human research . These
three principles find expression in "Community-Based Participatory
Research for Improved Mental Healthcare, " or CBPR a systematic
approach for engaging specially-defined groups of people in a
process of inquiry and social change. In the Community-Based
Participatory Research, a panel of renowned authors provide a
step-by-step approach for conducting CBPR, providing all the
conceptual and methodological guidelines needed to implement this
important and extremely fruitful research approach. As early career
investigators use this mode of collaborative inquiry in the service
of society, an exciting and entirely new capacity for ethically
sound and more rigorous and consequential science can be built. An
indispensable resource that will be of great interest to
researchers from a wide array of disciplines, the "Community-Based
Participatory Research for Improved Mental Healthcare" is a major
addition to the literature and certain to become the gold standard
reference in the field."

Ethics plays an especially important and unique role in psychiatry,
and this issue is a must-read for psychiatrists as they navigate
these sometime tricky waters. With an eye on the most current
developments in the psychiatric field, authors discuss topics such
as ethics in research, ethics in clinical treatment, ethics in
education, genetics, and the military. The section on clinical
concerns contains separate articles on children, adults, and older
patients, with special attention paid to women's mental health,
forensics, addiction psychiatry, consultation/liaison psychiatry,
and community psychiatry.
Bringing together Luce Irigaray's early psychoanalytically
orientated writings with her more recent and more explicitly
political writings, Irigary and Politics weaves together the
ontological, political and ethical dimensions of Irigaray's
philosophy of sexuate difference in imaginative ways. Laura Roberts
argues that Irigaray's philosophical-political project must be read
as a critique of constructions of western modernity and
rationality. When appreciated in this way, it becomes clear how
Irigaray's thought makes profound interventions into contemporary
political movements and decolonial thought - themes that have never
been covered before in Irigaray scholarship. This enables readers
to recognise that the question of sexual difference in Irigaray's
philosophy is concerned not only with refiguring politics and
political action, but with the foundational structures that govern
existence itself.

God speaks to us all in different ways. Some of us hear His words,
some see His visions and some feel His presence. Walk with me
through my personal journey with Him so that you may understand Him
more, feel closer to Him and to yourself and feel that intimacy
