Eden Seminary and in Nursing Education from Washington University,
St. Louis. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Sociology from
MacMurray College and a nursing certificate from Blessing Hospital.

Blessing nurses' alumni association as Nurse of the Year and
inducted into her Palmyra, Missouri school district's Academic Hall
of Fame. She was a missionary teacher for twenty years under the
Presbyterian Church USA and vocational and program agencies. From
1974 to 1978 she was a Nursing Instructor at the University of
Azarabadegan in Iran and from 1978 to 1988 she was a Christian
Education Teacher at Maridi Teacher Training Institute and the
first American woman to become Chair at their Department of
Religion. Marjorie White, a missionary teacher for over twenty
years, has written this book at the request of missionary schools
who want to train educators to serve in Muslim countries. The book
covers the personal perspectives and experiences in Iran during her
time of service and her own perspectives on relating to those of
the Muslim religion that she learned from interaction with her
Muslim students, friends and co-workers. The books of Moses were
the only text that she was allowed to use in her religious
education classes in both Sudan and Iran and this presentation is
fairly representative of what she taught. Parts of this book are
devoted to her use of the new teaching technique of using literary
methods to teach science and other non-literary subjects. This book
is timely, as it addresses today's new interest in teaching Bible
truths throughout school curriculum.
The sequel to the beloved Newbery Honor Book, Belle Prater's Boy
Since Belle Prater inexplicably disappeared about a year ago, her
son, Woodrow, and his cousin Gypsy have been searching for answers.
Then, on the stroke of midnight on Woodrow's birthday, the phone
rings. No one is at the other end of the line, but Woodrow is
certain it was his mama. They find out that the call was placed
from nearby Bluefield, and set out to see if they can track her
down. Joining them is Cassie Caulborne, the new girl in school, who
is endowed with the gift of second sight. Unfortunately, they can
find no trace of Belle. Once again, Woodrow realizes that perhaps
even worse than not knowing where she is, is not understanding why
his mama would leave him. How Woodrow, Gypsy, and Cassie come to
understand the truth, and Woodrow eventually finds Belle, fills
this oft-requested sequel to Belle Prater's Boy with magic and
suspense.

Based on their research into clinical teaching in nursing, the
authors of this work adopt an approach that considers the context
in which clinical teaching takes place. The cycle of events in the
preparation for and follow-up of practice is seen in the context of
the socialization from student to nurse. The book applies the
concepts of the clinical learning cycle to clinical teaching and
suggests a style of professional practice that students can learn
to adopt. Clinical teaching is regarded as a specialized field of
practice, with skills that are different from classroom teaching.
Examples of commonly encountered problems invite readers to think
through their responses to a situation before proceeding to a
suggested source of action. The principles of clinical teaching are
universal although they will have variations in application in
different settings. The book should be of use to nurse educators,
curriculum developers, staff development personnel, workshop
facilitators, basic biological and social and behavioural science
teachers.
Ted Wyatt and Kelly Trent make choices that determine the direction
their lives will take. Ted wants to marry and start a family; Kelly
wants to leave ranch life behind. They seem to have complementary
needs--but do they? Or are they headed for frustration and
non-fulfillment?
In "A Man Was a Real Man in Them Days," Ruth Burns celebrates the
life and character of the pioneers who dared to challenge the vast
prairie of the Llano Estacado of Eastern New Mexico. In the 1880s
along the Rio Grande and Pecos Rivers, the cities of Santa Fe,
Albuquerque and Ft. Sumner were bustling centers of commerce, but
on the High Plains, due to the lack of dependable water, the
prairie was inhabited only by occasional outlaws, Indian hunting
parties, Hispanic mustangers and buffalo hunters. After the Civil
War, cowmen began to bring their herds to the plains; and in 1898
when the railroad came, homesteaders poured in, lured by promises
of free land. Barbed-wire fences were put up, and the day of the
open range was at an end. Using interviews and letters collected by
her mother in the 1930s and 1940s, Burns reveals the courage,
determination, and good humor of these first settlers by using
their own words, recorded while they were still living.

WORKING WITH YOUR CHAKRAS is a clearly written and easy-to-use book
which brings esoteric chakra knowledge into a Western perspective.
You will discover how connecting with your chakras enables growth,
healing and balance to take place in all areas of your being -
physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Ruth White explains that
much chakra work is of self-help nature. Through exercises and
colourful visualisations and meditations you will unlock a wealth
of information about yourself. Unsuspected strengths or gifts will
emerge and information essential to full physical and emotional
healing will be revealed. Above all, the self-understanding you
will gain through contact with your chakras will help you to live
more fully and make more dynamic and exciting life choices.
While Meggie and David Blue are from another planet, they're a lot
like Earth kids, with similar hopes and dreams, and can't wait to
grow up. But they also have "grossly unique" qualities, such as
blue streaks in their hair that pop up randomly and language skills
that sound like nothing on this planet.
