Conclusion
Authors: Hayes Julie Candler 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Taking an anecdote related by Denis Diderot as a starting point, the conclusion reflects on the place of the “personal” in moralist writing. Moralist writing articulates a relationship between the particular and the general, between the individual and the social; its ostensibly descriptive approach is laced with analysis and ethical reflection. It provides women thinkers, often excluded from the formal institutions of knowledge, with a platform for engaging major philosophical topics. If there is a unifying thread in these women’s analyses of the self, of friendship, of happiness, of marriage, of age, of the female condition, it is the recurring claim of personal integrity, autonomy, and liberty. Moralist writing, through its form and content, supports women in that search.
“Who” Versus “How Many”
Authors: Zerubavel Eviatar 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter examines the distinction between “who-based” (and thereby personal) and “how-many-based” (and thus impersonal) forms of social cognition. The latter envisions individuals as countable quantities, as exemplified by the way demographers and epidemiologists deal with aggregate numbers of cases rather than specific individuals. The chapter discusses the notion of quotas, socio-arithmetically defined in terms of either a minimum number of persons required (such as in a quorum) or a maximum number of persons allowed. It also examines the ideological tension between the fundamentally democratic idea of considering all individuals arithmetically equal (thereby viewing each person’s vote as equivalent to anyone else’s) and elitist and libertarian critiques of the “tyranny of the majority” it might entail. It concludes with a discussion of the sociological significance of relative proportions, such as whether one is part of a majority or a minority.
Psychotherapy for Pregnancy Loss
Authors: Markin Rayna D. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This book applies cutting-edge research on the therapist–client relationship to psychotherapy for pregnancy loss in a way that is easy for clinicians to apply in various settings. Specifically, it takes relationship elements found to predict treatment outcomes (i.e., evidence-based relationships and responsiveness), such as alliance, empathy, emotional expression, alliance rupture/repair, countertransference management, and therapist responsiveness to client attachment style, and, through in-depth clinical illustrations and practical relational guidance, demonstrates how they can be used to help clients affected by pregnancy loss to (a) process and grow from the trauma of loss, (b) restore healthy self-esteem that was assaulted by the loss of a pregnancy, and (c) rewire insecure attachment internal working models to more secure. Though pregnancy loss, including miscarriage, stillbirth, recurrent pregnancy loss, pregnancies after loss, ectopic pregnancies, and fetal terminations due to genetic anomalies, which sometimes occurs within the context of infertility, is a relatively common event that often has long-term and severe psychological consequences for individuals and couples, little clinical guidance exists for psychotherapists working with this client population. Similarly, though decades of research on the therapy relationship supports its association to treatment outcome, less clinical guidance exists on how exactly practicing clinicians can apply relationship research to the clinical context with specific client populations. Using the theories of attachment and of the psychological experience of pregnancy loss as a guide, this book argues that the therapy relationship is especially important in psychotherapy for pregnancy loss.
A Mystery from the Mummy-Pits
Authors: Holt Frank L. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This book recounts the detective work of the Houston Mummy Research Program as it investigates the mysterious Egyptian mummy of a man named Ankh-Hap. CT scans reveal that the mummy has wasp nests in its skull, wooden poles within its wrappings, and a suspicious number of missing body parts. Clues inside the coffin lead the investigation to a company in Rochester, New York, founded by Henry Augustus Ward. This businessman raided the mummy-pits of Egypt and sold whole bodies and body parts to the public. The book investigates mummy trafficking in America and the uses made of these human remains for amusement and the manufacture of medicine, paint, and other products. The trail next leads to Texas, where the mummy spent part of the twentieth century in a veterinarian’s classroom before it was lost inside an abandoned campus restroom.
The Mystery Begins
Authors: Holt Frank L. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
In 1987, the Houston Museum of Natural Science and the University of Houston partnered in a pioneering examination of an Egyptian mummy named Ankh-Hap. The body and coffin were analyzed using a CT scan (computer tomography) and carbon dating. The results were immediately puzzling. Much of the mummy’s skeletal structure was missing or displaced; there were wasp nests in the skull. Some body parts had been replaced by dummies made of wood and cloth, and a network of wooden poles could be detected throughout the mummy. Some of these anomalies were clearly not part of the original mummification process, suggesting a long history of disturbance. This led to an ongoing Egyptological investigation of the mysterious journey taken by Ankh-Hap from ancient Egypt to modern America.
A Life and Death in Egypt
Authors: Holt Frank L. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Ankh-Hap lived during the dawn of the Hellenistic Age, a tumultuous period in Egyptian history. His name evokes the cult of the Apis bull, which endured the political changes of the time. The evidence for his health and everyday life is explored, followed by the mummification and funeral rites that attended his death. The Osiris myth played an important role in the latter. There is evidence that Ankh-Hap’s grave was disturbed in antiquity and that perhaps his damaged mummy was rewrapped. Ancient grave robbers posed a serious threat to every Egyptian’s afterlife. Mummies were also plundered in later eras, particularly for use as a medicine called mumia. Not only were these dead bodies ingested as a cure-all, but they were ground up in large numbers to make fish bait, aphrodisiacs, paint, and other products down to modern times.
A Relic in the Restroom
Authors: Holt Frank L. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Tracing Ankh-Hap’s journey to Texas led next to Drs. Mark Francis and Oscar Ball, professors at Texas A&M University in the early twentieth century. In 1914, they purchased the mummy and coffin from a financially strapped Chautauqua gathering in Wichita Falls, Texas. In 1921, the name on the coffin inscription was rendered to the public as “Anh-Hr-H3cpj,” known in A&M lore as Ramses’s tax collector and “the oldest Aggie.” Displayed for a time in a university museum until it was closed, the mummy and coffin were later stored in a campus restroom and forgotten except for the occasional efforts of a noted newspaper columnist, Frank Tolbert, to find “Anh-Hr-H3cpj.” In 1970, the coffin and mummy were relocated on permanent loan to the Houston Museum of Natural Science, where both are displayed today.
Older Adults in Forensic Settings
Authors: Prescott Dana 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The chapters author begins by providing an overview of key demographics and host environments relative to social work practice with older adults in forensic settings. Next, an application of the National Association of Social Workers Code of Ethics lays the groundwork for understanding contemporary issues in forensic practice with older adults. The author then describes three central challenges, which include competency and capacity, criminal responsibility and sentencing mitigation, and child custody and protection. In addition to their description, the challenges include fields of practice involved and tips for navigating the challenge. The author closes the chapter with reflections on the populations and practice settings.
History of Criminal Justice Theory
Authors: Chapple Constance L. , Lofflin Matthew S. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
When tracing criminal justice theory development, it is wise to review its background in criminological thought. While criminal justice, as a separate academic discipline, emerged in the United States during Johnson’s Great Society, crime researchers and theorists have long been interested in the workings of the criminal justice system. The earliest writings in criminology by Beccaria, Bentham, and Hobbes address the criminal justice system’s operation exclusively. As criminology developed as a scholarly discipline within the United States, criminal justice practitioners often borrowed heavily from prevailing research and theory to design effective crime prevention and management policies. This chapter reviews the major paradigms of criminological thought and how they translate into criminal justice policy. The chapter concludes with a review of the major theories of criminal justice today.
Immigration Policy
Authors: Monico Carmen , Chacon Oscar A. , Olagbemiro Neema , An Soonok 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
One of the most controversial issues in immigration policies and practices in the United States is the long history of rejection and abuse of the native cultures that existed prior to the conquest in the Western Hemisphere and the subsequent rejection of non-White immigrants since the founding of the United States. Immigration policies prior to the 21st century failed to anticipate rapid increases in immigration associated with globalization, as well as the impact of climate change and the rise of health emergencies. COVID-19 has forced policymakers and practitioners to rethink how to address irregular immigration in the middle of a communicative disease pandemic that has no borders. A critical lens that accounts for interpersonal, structural, and institutional racism is necessary and timely for examining immigration policy. The authors phenomenologically inquired about immigration policy, both retrospectively and prospectively, with the use of autoethnography as their primary research tool of data collection, combined with text analysis of the literature. The authors make the case for better integration of immigration issues in social work education and research so that future generations may become competent in working with immigrants in the United States with different legal statuses as well as with refugees arriving via resettlement programs. The authors call on social workers to (a) engage in a better understanding of why humane immigration policies align with social work values; (b) consider the influence of immigration policies on clients, regardless of their race and ethnic background; and (c) monitor the impacts of immigration policy on community health and well-being.
Capital Punishment
Authors: Hope Trina L. , Lepper-Pappan Heather M. , Natale Anthony P. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter explores the history and current practice of capital punishment in the United States, evaluates capital punishment as a criminal justice policy, describes the collateral damage associated with capital punishment, and discusses the implications for social workers. The evidence is clear that capital punishment is arbitrary and costly, does not act as a deterrent, produces wrongful convictions, and is littered with a history of racial discrimination. Perhaps even worse than capital punishment missing the mark in terms of its intended effects, it inflicts significant collateral damage upon the families of both victims and offenders, as well as those who work in the system. Finally, when the social work code of ethics is applied to the system of capital punishment, it is clear the practice is antithetical to the aims of social work.
Juvenile Justice Policy
Authors: McCarter Susan , Drew Vanessa , Scales Saliseah , Mathews Keshawn 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter provides a thorough overview of juvenile justice law from the colonial period to present day. Readers will learn the most significant legislation for juveniles including the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) of 1974, the Juvenile Justice Reform Act of 2018, and the Juvenile Incarceration Reduction Act introduced by Rep. John Lewis. The chapter also provides forensic social work practice examples at the micro, mezzo, and macro levels to highlight current racial and ethnic disparities in juvenile justice. The chapter concludes by using the grand challenges for social work to advocate for juvenile justice reform including assessing relative rate indices, dismantling the school-to-prison pipeline, offering diversion alternatives, raising the age of criminal responsibility, and employing wraparound services for youth.
Child Welfare
Authors: Pharris Angela B. , Havig Kirsten , Goodwin Bonni 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The child welfare system in the United States is a complex network of tribal, state, and federal policies, laws, and practices that involve and intersect with forensic institutions. The primary outcomes of child welfare practice are to promote safety, permanency, and well-being of children and their families. This chapter provides an overview of some of the important functions of the child welfare system that is specifically tasked with addressing child maltreatment, with attention to the interaction between the field of practice and the courts, including investigation, advocacy, planning, reunification, and permanency. Additionally, the chapter provides details on some of the challenges facing the child welfare system.
Domestic & Relational Violence
Authors: McLeod David Axlyn , Ozturk Burcu 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
No matter the name (domestic violence, intimate partner violence, relational violence), violence in relationships is epidemic in the United States, and social workers will be interacting with clients experiencing this. In all practice settings, and especially those directed toward it, these patterns of abuse and maltreatment in relationships are important for social workers to be able to identify and communicate about. Over the years multiple theoretical models have been used to explain the phenomenon, and this chapter will detail those as well as present social workers with a modernized conceptual model to understand and intervene in regards to physical, sexual, social, emotional, psychological, and other forms of violence in relationships.
Mental Health Court
Authors: Nordberg Anne , Gallagher John R. , Canada Meredith 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This chapter discusses the history, theoretical underpinnings, and current role of mental health courts in the criminal justice system. It examines how social workers can make a substantial contribution to mental health courts, as the philosophy of mental health courts is consistent with social work principles, and describes how mental health courts are an important part of criminal justice reform. It highlights up-to-date research on best practices in serving women, racial and ethnic minorities, and individuals who identify as LGBTQ+. The chapter concludes with a case study that explores ethical dilemmas common to forensic settings and provides an example treatment plan, mental health diagnostic impressions, and a description of evidence-based interventions that social workers can use in mental health courts to promote recovery and well-being.
Probation
Authors: Taxman Faye S. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
With nearly five million adults on probation in the United States, the probation sentence affects the trajectory of individuals with legal involvement. Success on probation can address factors that affect engagement in offending, while failure can result in further penetration into the legal system (including incarceration). The work of probation is like a swinging pendulum—it has embraced social work principles in some eras, while other eras have been devoted to “get tough” policies. Contemporary probation work acknowledges the importance of client-centered approaches and offers a more humane punishment scheme. Working alliance is a key concept to advancing probation services. Social workers can play a role in transforming the probation sanction to be meaningful, including preventing and treating client issues that affect offending behavior. The role of probation should be to facilitate behavior change as a means to prevent future offending.
Restorative Justice
Authors: Sliva Shannon M. , Sarantakos Sophia P. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Restorative justice is a community-based approach to harm response that is increasingly used in criminal legal settings as an alternative or supplement to court and correctional procedures. It is uniquely situated for social work practice due to its focus on human relationships. This chapter will offer an introduction to restorative justice and discuss the theoretical bases of this approach. It will then identify the restorative justice practices most commonly used in criminal legal settings and summarize empirical support for their efficacy with justice-involved populations. Finally, it will offer a case study depicting the use of a restorative justice approach to respond to community violence and highlight the challenges and opportunities for social workers in this unique practice arena.
Correctional Settings
Authors: Casey Rachel C. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Social workers provide a variety of services to people incarcerated in jails and prisons, including case management, rehabilitative and educational programming, and clinical mental health services. Correctional social workers may conduct a wide range of specialized assessments to better understand the mental health needs of their incarcerated clients, as well as identify significant risk factors for both suicide and recidivism. Clinical interventions within correctional contexts include mental health and substance abuse treatment, self-harm prevention, and treatment of criminogenic needs, such as treatment for sexual offenders. The physical and cultural environment of correctional facilities is especially unique in its intensity and structure, invariably impacting both incarcerated people and correctional staff. Ethical dilemmas may arise for social workers seeking to promote the dignity and worth of their incarcerated clients within the inherently dehumanizing context of a correctional facility.
Emerging Adulthood
Authors: Arnett Jeffrey Jensen 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
This is the original book presenting the theory of emerging adulthood, which offered a new conception of development from the late teens through the 20s. The book presents emerging adulthood as a new life stage that has arisen over the past half century in developed countries. It is not merely “late adolescence,” because emerging adults are not going through puberty, are not as dependent on their parents, and are not minors under the law. Nor is it the beginning of a settled “young adulthood” in which the structure of an adult life has been built that is likely to continue for decades to come. Instead, emerging adulthood is a life stage in which explorations and instability are the norm. As they focus on their self-development, emerging adults feel in-between, on the way to adulthood but not there yet. Nevertheless, they have a high level of optimism about the possibilities the future holds for them. For this 20th anniversary edition, all the chapters have been updated, and a new chapter has been added on cultural and international variations. The other chapters cover a wide range of topics in the lives of emerging adults, including relations with parents; love, sex, and marriage; college and the transition to work; religious beliefs and values; common problems; media use; social class variations; and how emerging adults perceive their transition to adulthood. Throughout the book, vivid interview material is combined with large-scale survey research, including a national survey of 18-to-29-year-olds directed by the author.
Water and Empire*
Authors: Josephson Paul R. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Ambitious waterworks projects are paradigmatic for Russia. Tsarist engineers advanced dam, canal, and basin transfer projects to accelerate industrialization and settlement. Under the Soviets, projects to alter river basins and reclaim wetlands took off in number, grandeur, and financing. The impressive list of Russian waterworks projects covers all kinds of engineering projects in every geography and climate imaginable: dams, canals, hydroelectric power stations, irrigation systems; above the Arctic Circle, in arid Central Asia, and in the deep frosts of Siberia. The descendants of those ministries and design institutes have begun to assemble a portfolio of similarly ambitious projects in Russia in the twenty-first century. If big engineering projects fell on hard times after the breakup of the USSR, under Putin they have been reborn: stations on Siberian rivers to power the oligarch’s extractive industries and interbasin water transfer projects to Central Asia and China to sell yet another commodity—water.
Nuclear Wonderlands
Authors: Josephson Paul R. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Hero projects include modern scientific achievements in atomic energy and weaponry. The most hubristic of the nations in pursuit of nuclear power has been Russia. Stalin secured the bomb already in 1949. Then the USSR embarked on ambitious programs to create a network of nuclear power stations. Many of these programs have found rebirth in the twenty-first century through the corporation “Rosatom”—essentially a self-contained hero project that is critically important to Russian geopolitical interests, economic power, and self-image. Rosatom, the inheritor of civilian and military programs of the Soviet nuclear ministry, will defend Arctic regions, provide unlimited electricity, and perhaps complete the unfinished tasks of the legendary northern shipping route pursued by Stalin. The hero atom includes: floating mobile nuclear power plants, icebreakers, and third-generation reactors and plutonium breeder reactors. Russia seeks no less than nuclear grandeur.
Repression in the Digital Age
Authors: Gohdes Anita R. 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
Global adoption of the Internet has exploded, and we are only slowly coming to understand the profound political consequences it brings with it. Authoritarian states are digitally catching up with their democratic counterparts, and both are showing a growing interest the use of cyber controls—online censorship and surveillance technologies that allow governments to exercise control over the Internet. This book shines a light on how these powerful new technologies are supporting states in their use of violent repression. It presents an argument that explains under what conditions a digitally connected society actually helps states target their enemies, why repressive governments sometimes shut down the Internet when faced with uprisings, and how these cyber controls have become a tool in the weapons arsenal that states use in civil conflict. The book presents large-scale analyses of fine-grained data on the Syrian conflict, qualitative case evidence from Iran, and global comparative analysis on Internet outages to examine the complicated relationship between these technologies and repression. Taken together, the findings show that cyber controls are supporting security forces in their use of violent state repression: higher levels of Internet accessibility support more targeted violence, in particular in sectors of society that were previously shielded from state reach. Extreme forms of censorship or even shutdowns of the Internet occur in conjunction with larger and more indiscriminate repression. As digital communication has become a bedrock of modern opposition and protest movements the book breaks new ground in examining state repression in the information age.
