"Then when you don't see me anymore, I will be where God is," said
Mima, "because God loves you and God loves me, 'All will be well,
all will be well, everything will be well.'" Mima is very sick, and
just thinking about it makes Julian very sad and very angry. Julian
is worried about Mima and wonders if God can hear her or if God
cares. So Mima explains to Julian that God loves us and that God
can be trusted-even when we are sad or angry. This gentle story of
a grandmother's love for her granddaughter incorporates the
timeless wisdom of Julian of Norwich: because of God's great love
for us, all will be well. Written by Lacy Finn Borgo and
beautifully illustrated by Rebecca Evans, All Will Be Well tackles
the sensitive subjects of death and grief in a way that can be
understood by children when adults read thoughtfully with them.
Also included is a note from the author to facilitate further

This handbook illustrates the evolution of literature and science,
in collaboration and contestation, across the twentieth and
twenty-first centuries. The essays it gathers question the charged
rhetoric that pits science against the humanities while also
demonstrating the ways in which the convergence of literary and
scientific approaches strengthens cultural analyses of colonialism,
race, sex, labor, state formation, and environmental destruction.
The broad scope of this collection explores the shifting relations
between literature and science that have shaped our own cultural
moment, sometimes in ways that create a problematic hierarchy of
knowledge and other times in ways that encourage fruitful
interdisciplinary investigations, innovative modes of knowledge
production, and politically charged calls for social justice.
Across units focused on epistemologies, techniques and methods,
ethics and politics, and forms and genres, the chapters address
problems ranging across epidemiology and global health, genomics
and biotechnology, environmental and energy sciences, behaviorism
and psychology, physics, and computational and surveillance
technologies. Chapter 19 is available open access under a Creative

Food away from home (FAFH) is an important part of a typical
American's diet and continues to increase as a share of the food
budget. Rising consumption of a particular kind of FAFHfast foodhas
been blamed for American's expanding waistlines and poor diet
quality. The study examined in this book uses data from the 2003-11
American Time Use Survey to examine the effects of time-use
behaviors, prices, sociodemographic characteristics, labor force
participation, and prices on fast-food purchasing patterns in the
United States before and after the Great Recession. Because fast
food accounts for a large share of U.S. food expenditures and
calorie consumption, a better understanding of the motivation
behind trends in fast-food purchasing behaviors may help inform
policies designed to improve the diet quality of Americans. This
research complements previous studies that used food expenditure
and food intake data (but not time-use data) to analyse the effects
of demographic characteristics, prices, and income on fast-food
purchases and consumption. In addition, this book discusses
consumer spending at full-service and fast food restaurants, and
the affect this has on the foodservice industry.
It's not until you loose your ego completely... Completely... That
you can learn, not to hide behind it... Rebecca Evans wonders...
What has the world come to, when my place maybe a better place than
yours? This fictional account shares the authors own experiences
with the intention of giving the reader a true comprehension of the
battered women's syndrome. Evans hoped to create a character the
public would find empathy for- but not necessarily admire. As an
"anonymous" writer, Evans releases a drama that most people's
predisposition towards prejudice would not qualify them to write
about in the first place or to even look at and actually gain
astounding perceptions, insight, and brave observations that lend
voice with candor to an arduous topic.
Sting and his wife Trudie Styler, along with an ensemble of actors,
singers and musicians, bring to life the tragic love between the
composer Robert Schumann and his pianist wife Clara Wieck.
Reflecting the separation that came to be such a central theme of
their lives, the performers are divided into male and female
groups. Sting reads the letters of Robert Schumann, with his songs
sung by Iain Burnside, while Trudie Styler reads Clara's letters,
with her songs being sung by Rebecca Evans.
