بات من الضروري الاهتمام بأهمية دور المرأة في تحقيق التنمية المستدامة في المجتمعات عموما وفي العراق على وجه التحديد، خاصة إذا ما نظرنا إلى أن المرأة هي نصف المجتمع وأن لها دور مهم والتنمية الاقتصادية لا يقل أهمية عن دور شريكها الرجل. ورغم هذه الحقيقة إلا أن الارقام المتداولة دوليا تبين أن الطريق ما زال طويلا وشائكا ما لم تتم معالجته بطرق علمية ومنطقية وقابلة للتطبيق، وتشير الاحصائيات إلى نسبة متدنية من فرص العمل للمرأة في العراق وفقاً لتقرير الفجوة العالمية بين الجنسين والتي أحتل فيها العراق المرتبة (154) من أصل (156 دولة في العالم)، إذ سجل مؤشر الفجوة للقطاعين الاقتصادي والتعليمي للمرأة العراقية نحو (0.228 من أصل 1) و (0.8 من أصل 1) على التوالي (المنتدى الاقتصادي العالمي، 2021).
ومع تزايد الاهتمام بدور المرأة في العمل الريادي في العالم عموما وامرأة الشرق الاوسط تحديدا والتي تمثل الحاضنة الاشمل للمرأة العراقية، ومن أجل تعزيز امكانيات المرأة في العراق لابد من مراجعة دور المرأة الحقيقي في بناء المجتمع والعمل على تقليص تلك الفجوة خاصة فيما يتعلق بدورها في التعليم، الصحة، والتوظيف أضافة إلى استثمار وتطوير مهاراتها الابداعية والريادية نحو مستقبل واعد لها.
Historical Imagination
Authors: Fairfield Paul
Published: February 2024

Historical Imagination defends a phenomenological and hermeneutical account of historical knowledge. The book’s central questions are what is historical imagination, what is the relation between the imaginative and the empirical, in what sense is historical knowledge always already imaginative, how does such knowledge serve us, and what is the relation of historical understanding and self-understanding? Paul Fairfield revisits some familiar hermeneutical themes and endeavors to develop these further while examining two important periods in which historical reassessments or re-imaginings of the past occurred on a large scale. The conception of historical imagination that emerges seeks to advance beyond the debate between empiricists and postmodern constructivists while focusing on narrative as well as a more encompassing interpretation of who an historical people were, how things stood with them, and how this comes to be known. Fairfield supplements the philosophical argument with an historical examination of how and why during late antiquity, early Christian thinkers began to reimagine their Greek and Roman past, followed by how and why renaissance and later enlightenment figures reimagined their ancient and medieval past.

"Brimming with examples from across the artistic spectrum, this is the perfect primer to hook future art enthusiasts." Publishers Weekly

Interested in art but feel under-informed? Curious but afraid you might not “get” it? Already a fan and wishing to immerse yourself in a fun, engaging, informative and informed read that will refresh and top up your Art History 101 and Introduction to Art courses from college?

The 12-Hour Art Expert: Everything You Need to Know about Art in a Dozen Masterpieces avoids the common approach of throwing hundreds of images at a reader and expecting them to learn from and memorize them all.

Instead, the book will guide its readers through a brief series of masterpieces of Western art—from cave paintings to sharks in formaldehyde. This book twelve chapters teach readers about art, the art trade, and art history in a thorough (though concise) fashion.

Each chapter is linked to one notable masterpiece, with references to others, giving readers a fixed, digestible number of objects that they will get to know in depth, and which they can use as a lens to understand the thousands of other, related objects that they might encounter in the future.

Museums can be daunting, and art presents a strange new language, one that certainly intrigues but is often intimidating and foreign. This book, written by one of the world’s best-known art historians uses entertaining stories to break down intimidating barriers and invites readers of all ages for a one-stop immersion into art.
Surviving
Authors: Gooden Beverly
Published: February 2024

Library Journal Self-Help Bestseller

Winner of the 2023 National Indie Excellence Award in African American Nonfiction

Silver Winner of the 2023 Nautilus Book Award

A revealing look at why domestic violence victims stay with their abusers…and how they can ultimately leave. And survive.

One Saturday morning, Gooden is woken up by her husband shoving her off the bed for no discernible reason.

Despite her quick thinking and even quicker footsteps, her husband catches her, his sudden anger inexplicable. No words are exchanged. He begins to strangle her as he has done many times before.

With unflinching vulnerability, Gooden outlines in painstaking detail what she had to do to walk away and how others can use her experiences to escape their own abuse, from skimming the grocery money, to squirreling away personal belongings, to navigating a domestic violence shelter. She offers strategies for overcoming the barriers survivors often face, such as money, housing, overcritical social circles, or, most powerfully: love. Uniquely compassionate when it comes to the heartbreak of still loving one’s abuser, Gooden shares how she transformed and extended this love outward, using her story to encourage others to choose themselves. The voice and fire behind #WhyIStayed, Bev Gooden is exceptionally positioned to explore the many reasons victims stay in abusive relationships, and how they can muster the resources and motivation to leave.

Surviving is unlike any memoir of survivorship, given its nuance, compassion, and candor. Above all, it is an exquisitely powerful testament to Gooden’s healing, survivorship, and dedication to helping others do the same.
Policing Sex Crimes
Authors: Spencer Dale , Ricciardelli Rosemary
Published: February 2024

Policing Sex Crimes offers an overview of the affordances and difficulties of investigating and responding to sex crimes in contemporary digital society. The simplest to most complex sex crimes investigations can (and often do) have a digital component. Such a digital society creates a number of inter- and intra-organizational challenges in terms of investigation of sex offenses and response to victims of sex crimes. In the proposed text, the authors elucidate laws defining sex crimes across international contexts and examine the different ways nation states have responded to digital sex crimes and related digital communication technologies via laws, policies, and practices. They draw on 70 interviews with sex crime investigators to document the effects of digital sex crimes on the policing profession and the broader police organizations that sex crime investigators work. Lastly, they explore how victims are interpreted by police officers and the challenges they face achieving justice in the wake of sexual victimization.
The Water Recycling Revolution
Authors: Alley William M. , Alley Rosemarie
Published: February 2024

A 2023 Choice Reviews Outstanding Academic Title

Move past the “yuck factor” by learning the benefits and science behind recycling wastewater to beat climate change.

In recent years, humans have begun to turn the age-old taboo against mixing sewage and drinking water on its head by using advanced treated wastewater to supplement a city’s drinking water supply. This increasingly widespread practice, known as potable reuse, qualifies as nothing less than a drinking water revolution. Water reuse offers a renewable, locally managed, and drought resistant water supply. The Water Recycling Revolution tracks the story of this development, examines the pros and cons, and explores its future potential.

In this book, William M. Alley and Rosemarie Alley answer our most pressing questions: How do you get people to overcome the visceral reaction known as the “Yuck Factor” and not only drink, but appreciate, recycled water? What about all those pharmaceuticals and personal care products that people casually flush down the drain? Will diverting discharges from a wastewater treatment plant damage downstream users or ecosystems that previously depended on that water? And what are the implications for climate change? These questions are answered by delving into the history of major water recycling projects from California to Virginia, each with a unique story of what led them to develop potable reuse, as well as the challenges they had to overcome. Additional concerns addressed include pathogens, contaminants of emerging concern, achieving acceptable risk, onsite and decentralized reuse systems, and directpotable reuse. Recycling wastewater can make for a bright future in the fight against climate change, and this book is a valuable resource to convince readers.
Political Refugees
Authors: Danesh Armin , Assiter Alison
Published: February 2024

Many books about refugees focus on their trauma, loss, and victimhood. Refugees are often regarded as problems for governments and social services in the countries where they seek asylum. This unique book presents a very different view. Coupling existential themes with politics and psychology, Political Refugees tells the story of a number of Iranian political refugees, through case studies and through Armin Danesh’s own life story. Danesh has more than three decades of experience of working with refugees who have survived trauma and who continue to work for the causes close to their hearts. All the refugees presented here were politically engaged and suffered as a consequence. In their new home country, however, they not only survived but were reborn and forged new opportunities.

The book demonstrates people's capacity to transform themselves through crisis. The stories told will be invaluable for organizations or individuals who study or work with refugees or anyone who has suffered extreme adversity.
Sex When You Don't Feel Like It
Authors: Darnell Cyndi
Published: February 2024

A practical guide to understand both low and high libido, drawing on science, straight talk and useful exercises to stop blame and rekindle pleasure.

From the Vatican to Vegas, From Disney to PornHub, we’ve been tricked into believing love and sex are like a hand in a glove, though few of us experience them that way. In Sex When You Don’t Feel Like It: The Truth About Mismatched Libido and Rediscovering Desire,Cyndi Darnell helps demystify our relationship to desire by making it authentic, relatable, and most importantly, attainable. Darnell guides readers step-by-step through a useful framework to discover their authentic longings while recognizing it can feel uncomfortable when they’re unaccustomed to deep, soul-nourishing conversations about sex. From reading this book, you will learn what desire needs to thrive and how to understand your unique erotic template.

At its core, Sex When You Don’t Feel Like It is honest. It understands that exploring sex is complicated in a culture that insists sex is both natural and dangerous. It doesn’t promise eternal happiness with tips and tricks in three-easy-steps. It does, however, get to the heart of how everything we’ve been led to believe about erotic desire is untrue, and demonstrates how these beliefs shape our struggles with cultivating pleasure and understanding the nature of passion. Darnell takes desire from a passive, resigned sense of failure to an inspired quest by offering countless prompts, practices, suggestions and reflections to help the reader understand why they’re feeling what they’re feeling, why they’re feeling stuck, what they really want, and how to get there. This book offers abundant alternatives to sexual struggles and tackles the self-doubt, awkwardness, and embarrassment of exploring erotic desire to support the reader in creating a dynamic erotic identity that is uniquely theirs.

Death Tango
Authors: Alpher Yossi
Published: February 2024

Death Tango traces the Middle East dynamic back to the events of March 27–29, 2002. March 27, Passover Eve, witnessed the most bloody and traumatic Arab terrorist attack in Israel’s history, the Park Hotel bombing in Netanya. On March 28, an Arab League summit in Beirut adopted the Arab Peace Initiative, the most far-reaching Arab attempt to set parameters for ending the Israel-Arab conflict. The next day, Israel invaded and reoccupied the West Bank in Operation Defensive Shield.

Alpher illustrates the interaction between these three critical events and depicts the key personalities—politicians, generals, and a star journalist—involved on all sides. It moves from a suicide bombing to the deliberations of Arab leaders; from the Israel Prime Minister’s Office—where Ariel Sharon fulminated against Yasser Arafat—to Washington, where the United States fumbled and misunderstood the dynamics at work; and on to the Jenin refugee camp, where Israeli soldiers won a bloody military battle but Israel lost the media battle of public opinion.

Based on extensive interviews and his deep personal knowledge, Alpher analyzes the three days in late March 2002 as a catalyst of extensive change in the Middle East, concluding that Arabs and Israelis are dancing a kind of “death tango.”
The Natural Gardener
Authors: Harris John
Published: February 2024

John Harris, head gardener at Tresillian Estate in Cornwall, imparts his abundance of horticulture knowledge, specifically focusing on how to garden using the moon’s cycles.

Humans and the world around us have been governed by the waxing and waning of the moon since the planet came into being. Over the centuries different civilizations have embraced these natural cycles, and so lunar gardening has been around for as long as man has pulled food from the soil; once practiced by the Incas and Native Americans, this tried and trusted method has been largely forgotten.

John Harris, head gardener at Tresillian Estate in Cornwall, has been using Moon Gardening for over forty years. The methods he uses can be implemented anywhere. You do not need fancy tools, expensive seeds, or substantial acreage; instead, you simply need time, patience, and care to create breath-taking results. This is gardening at its most natural and organic.

The Natural Gardener charts John’s story from a rudderless young lad in a Cornish village to being charged with the salvation of the long-neglected gardens at Tresillian. As he shares how to follow the simple principles of moon gardening, he imparts his abundance of horticultural knowledge from years spent working in harmony with the soil, providing a timely link back to nature and the reassuring regularity of the seasons.
Technology Touchpoints
Authors: Brady, PhD, MAC Loretta L. C.
Published: February 2024

Analyzes the influence of technology and social media on human development with parents and families in mind.

This is a story about a family coming of age at the same time as smartphones and social media; a multiracial family coming into its own as windows into social injustice opened up before our very screens; and a multi-parent multi-professional family with children living differently depending on which house and which combination of family members happen to be home. While it is a story about a family, it is really the story of technological and global changes unfolding on our doorsteps.

While many revile the ascendance of smartphones and social media and the way they suck us into the vortex of cyberspace, there are cultural touchpoints that reflect deeper human and technology development patterns, patterns which we would all do well to understand, no matter whether or how we choose to engage in the ever-innovating digital frontiers. Informed by research and interviews with leaders in policy, human development, ethics, and technology Loretta Brady helps readers understand the complex systemic challenges and findings related to technology and human development.

We do not have to hate or fear technology. It is neither friend nor foe. But understanding its impact on our daily lives is paramount to cultivating a healthier relationship both with our digital lives and our real, lived ones.
The Library as Playground
Authors: Leorke Dale , Wyatt Danielle
Published: February 2024

Digital and analog games have long served modern public libraries as educational tools and as drawcards for new patrons – from dedicated gaming zones and children’s spaces to Minecraft gaming days, makerspaces, and virtual reality collections. Much has been written about the role of games and play in libraries’ programming and collections. But their wider role in transforming libraries as public institutions remains unexplored.

In this book, the authors draw on ethnographic research to provide a rich portrait of the intersection between games, play, and public libraries. They look at how games and play are increasingly spilling out of designated zones within libraries and beyond their walls, as part of a broader reconfiguration and “reimagining” of libraries in the digital era.

The library’s association with play has historically been understood through its classification as a “third place”: somewhere to relax, socialise and experiment outside of the utilitarian demands of work and home. But far from just offering patrons an opportunity for detached leisure, this book illustrates how libraries are connecting games and play to policies agendas around their municipality’s economic and cultural development. Attending to the institutionalisation of play, the book sheds new light both on the contradictions at the heart of play as a theoretical concept, and what libraries are in contemporary public life.

Cyber-Terrorism: An Appraisal of the Dimensions of the New Face of Terrorism in a Post-9/11 Period
Authors: Onireti Ayoade
Published: February 2024

There is no gainsaying that the threats posed by terrorists have not abated since the declaration of a Global War on terrorism following the September 11 attacks. Instead, terrorism has gradually metamorphosed into something more sophisticated that can cause even more significant destruction on a massive scale. Over the last 20 years, terrorist attacks have assumed a new and worrisome dimension with States and major international corporations being victims of cyber-terrorism and online attacks. This new face of terrorism is gradually replacing the traditional hostage-taking, suicide bombings, and kidnappings etc that followed the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT). This paper, therefore, critiques the GWOT particularly the threats posed by cyber-terrorism in the post-9/11 period. Whilst detailing some of the recent cyber-terrorism attacks and other preparatory acts committed by terrorist organizations, this paper appraises the effectiveness and coherence of the mechanisms put in place by the West and its allies in addressing cyberterrorism under its so-called GWOT. This systematic appraisal of the GWOT will contribute immensely to the field of social sciences, by providing objective answers to controversial and much-disputed questions arising from the war. Further studies on the implication(s) of the disagreement between world ‘super-powers’ on a global strategy for cyberterrorism is needed.
One Health Perspective of Malaria Transmission
Authors: Bedford Danquah Jonas , Afua Afrifa Yamoah Jennifer
Published: February 2024

Global efforts towards malaria control and elimination are promising. Despite this, current alterations in transmission continue to modify and frustrate such effort. In 2020 and 2021, malaria transmissions increased significantly. While 2021 showed a decline in malaria deaths by 6000 (1%), the numbers were still 51,000 (9%) higher than malaria deaths in 2019. Two-thirds of the contributing factors were attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic, thus demonstrating the capability of future pandemics and zoonotic diseases to stagger or derail earned achievements towards malaria elimination. Compounded by zoonotic and environmental factors that promote malaria transmission, there will be a need for relevant modelling and an update on current and past disease distribution information and will also be required to shape policy actions and to improve public health decision-making on malaria. These will help strengthen the evidence for the adoption of relevant implementation strategies to aid the 2030 vision of eliminating malaria a reality.

This research aims to see the influence of the Student Team Achievement Division Type Cooperative Learning Model on Student Learning Outcomes Theme 3 Subtheme 2 Diversity of Living Creatures in My Environment Class IV of State Elementary School 122357 Pematang Siantar. This research used a type of Pre-Experimental Design research. The sample in this research was all 23 class IV students at SD Negeri 122357 Pematang Siantar. The sampling technique in this research uses nonprobability sampling with a saturated sample type. Saturated sampling is a sampling technique when all members of the population are used as samples. This is often done when the population is relatively small. Hypothesis testing is used to determine whether student learning outcomes using the STAD type cooperative learning model are more influential than students taught using conventional learning. So the t_count > t_table value uses a significance level of 0.05 and df=24, namely 17.294 > 1.711. This means that the learning model has an influence on learning outcomes in lesson material Theme 3 Subtheme 2 Diversity of Living Creatures in My Environment Class IV at SD Negeri 122357 Pematangsiantar. If the learning model is done well, it will greatly influence the quality of student learning in the classroom.

Medicinal plants are those that have curative qualities or have positive pharmacological effects on the human body. The effect of ethanolic stem extracts from Nelsonia canescens was studied in relation to Sodium arsenite-induced toxicity in wistar rats. Fresh stem extract of Nelsonia canescens were obtained behind rice mill area, Wukari, Taraba state and was shade dried at room temperature and was homogenized into powder and measured at 300g into 100ml of absolute ethanol for 72 hours. 15 healthy male rats of 70g to 90g weight were obtained from animal house Makurdi, Benue state. Animals from Group 1 were used as control. 5mg/kg body weight of Sodium arsenite was administered to Group 2 animals while animals in Groups 3, 4 and 5 were administered with Nelsonia canescens ethanolic stem extracts 50 mg/kg, 100mg/kg and 200 mg/kg as well. At the end of 3 weeks the animals were sacrificed and serum sample were collected and analysed using standard methods. The results indicate that, when compared to those who received Sodium arsenite, those who received ethanol stem extracts of Nelsonia canescens showed a comparatively considerable liver protection against Sodium arsenite -induced damage. The levels of biochemical parameters: Albumin, Total protein, Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Total bilirubin, Urea, Creatinine of rats administered with Sodium arsenite only was also observed. The Nelsonia canescens extract’s activity at 200mg/kg bw (higher dose) give a reasonable decrease in the amount of these liver enzymes. Deducing from study results, it indicates that Nelsonia canescens leaf extracts could be an effective agent in Sodium arsenite mediated liver toxicity in adult wistar rats and drug development.
A Millennium of Migrations: Proto-historic Mobile Pastoralism in Hungary
Authors: Bartosiewicz László
Published: February 2024

During the A.D. 1st millennium, numerous waves of mobile pastoral communities of Eurasian origins reached the area of modern-day Hungary in the Carpathian Basin. This paper reviews animal exploitation as reconstructed from animal remains found at the settlements of Sarmatian, Avar/Slavic, and Early ("Conquering") Hungarian populations. According to the historical record, most of these communities turned to sedentism. Archaeological assemblages also manifest evidence of animal keeping, such as sheep and/or goat herding, as well as pig, cattle, and horse. Such functional similarities, however, should not be mistaken for de facto cultural continuity among the zooarchaeological data discussed here within the contexts of environment and cultural history. Following a critical assessment of assemblages available for study, analysis of species frequencies shed light on ancient lifeways of pastoral communities intransition. Spatial limitations (both geographical and political), as well as a climate, more temperate than in the Eurasian Steppe Belt, altered animal-keeping practices and encouraged sedentism.

Fibromialgia é caracterizada como uma doença crônica e é considerada idiopática, portanto, sua etiologia ainda é desconhecida. Apresenta sintomatologia resultante de diversos fatores e esse amplo quadro clínico resulta em uma ausência de diagnósticos bem como em um tratamento específico. Avaliar as vantagens no uso da acupuntura no tratamento da fibromialgia. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura, realizada a partir de 19 artigos publicados entre 2001 a 2020, em língua portuguesa e inglesa, pesquisados nas bases de dados Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), Google Acadêmico e Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS). Observou-se que a acupuntura é uma prática terapêutica, na qual considera o indivíduo como um conjunto de energias, com isso, visa tratar quaisquer desequilíbrios energéticos e orgânicos na sua totalidade. Identificou-se que oferecer essa técnica para indivíduos com fibromialgia apresentava uma redução importante na dor, além de apresentar influência no desfecho da melhora clínica do paciente. Entende-se, portanto, que a acupuntura é eficaz no sentido de reduzir significativamente a intensidade da dor e a quantidade de pontos doloridos em paciente portador de fibromialgia, de forma a melhorar a qualidade de vida do paciente.

Published: February 2024

Growth performance of Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822) reared in glass aquaria under different light conditions was studied from hatching to 75 days post hatching (dph). The objective was to generate baseline data/information on artificial seed production of catfish under different rearing conditions. Eggs of C. gariepinus were hatched at three photoperiods in complete darkness (DD), full illumination (LL) and control 12 h dark and 12 h light (normal) growth conditions. African catfish showed higher survival rates in the dark conditions than in the light conditions. The larvae also showed significantly increased cannibalistic behavior under light condition. Highest survival rate (92.8%) was observed for C. gariepinus that grew under darker condition. The higher activity of C. gariepinus under dark conditions resulted in reduced rates of cannibalism and higher rates of survival than light conditions. The sequence of development and ossification was faster in dark group by a day than in the light and by two days in the control group, whereas light group faster by a day compared to the control group. Some of the organ development and appearance completed within an hour gap and it was difficult to look sequential ontogeny on dark growth conditions. Dark growth conditions may be recommended as a best, effective technique for intensification of production of C. gariepinus, as it improves catfish survival rates.
