Ideologies of Caring: Rethinking Community and Collectivism
ISBN: 9780333650981 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Community care has long been the preferred policy for caring for dependent people. Ideologies of Caring, first published in 1988, challenges accepted ideas about community care, arguing that it is based on assumptions about an 'ideal model' of family life which in practice disadvantages both disabled and older people and women carers alike. This revised edition takes full account of major developments in community care since 1988 and, drawing on an eclectic range of feminist, historical and ethnographic sources, proposes alternative, collective approaches to caring.

ISBN: 9780199272778 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume completes the publication of all identified Old Babylonian tablets in the Ashmolean Museum accessed before 1966. Although many of them were acquired from dealers in the 1920s and 1930s, most can be assigned to sites and connected with similar holdings in other museums. The combination of full catalogue, indices, and copies provides an invaluable tool for further research on three of the most important cities of the 18th century BC. Links with Mycenaean administrative practices, and information about the hitherto dubious Sealand dynasty, are two interesting aspects highlighted in...

The image, the client and the therapist are three essential aspects of the art therapy relationship; each has a separate 'voice'. In this book, originally published in 1993, the three voices come alive as the client, Kim, and the therapist, Gabrielle, tell the story of his path from suicidal despair to health and creativity through a series of extraordinary images. The images, chosen to represent the stages of Kim's therapeutic experience, speak for themselves and convey their importance as a powerful catalyst for change. An outer voice, that of Tessa Dalley, provides a theoretical... The image, the client and the therapist are three essential aspects of the art therapy relationship; each has a separate 'voice'.

Caring in Crisis: The Search for Reasons and Post-Pandemic Remedies
ISBN: 9783030979973 / Angielski / Twarda / 2022 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book examines a familiar and contemporary social policy issue—the crisis besetting social care—but differs from usual accounts by including additional perspectives (philosophical, ethical and political) not often raised but nonetheless crucial to understanding the issue. Its central argument is that while a health/care divide dates back to legislative separation at the inception of the welfare state in the 1940s, the major cause of the current crisis has been the slow but insidious ideological and practical splitting off and fracturing of social care from other state welfare...

Esther's Revenge at Susa: From Sennacherib to Ahasuerus
ISBN: 9780199216635 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Why are the names of the chief characters in the biblical Book of Esther those of Mesopotamian deities? Stephanie Dalley argues that the narrative reflects real happenings in seventh-century Assyria, where the widespread belief that revenge belongs to the gods explains why Assyrian kings described punitive campaigns as divine acts, leading to the mythologizing of certain historical events. Ashurbanipal's sack of Susa, led by the deities Ishtar and Marduk, underlies the Hebrew story of Esther, and that story contains traces of the cultic calendar of Ishtar-of-Nineveh. Dalley traces the way in...
