Not Trauma Alone: Therapy for Child Abuse Survivors in Family and Social Context by Steven N. Gold, ISBN 1583910271
How is an individual to lead a comfortable, productive existence when one was never taught the skills necessary for effective living? Adult survivors of child abuse often face this dilemma. Instead of being nurtured as children and taught life-skills by their caregivers, child abuse survivors are subjected to daily regiments of coercive control, contempt, rejection, and emotional unresponsiveness. It is not surprising, therefore, that many survivors encounter difficulty adjusting from this type of damaging childhood atmosphere to one in which they have autonomy.
This book addresses the particular problems associated with treating adult survivors of child abuse. Standard trauma-focused treatment is dismissed as inappropriate for dealing with the lack of life skills from which so many adult survivors suffer. Accordingly, the text presents clinical practitioners with an alternative perspective for understanding and treating the life problems experienced by survivors.

Fixing the Families: Parents, Power, and the Child Welfare System
The ways children's rights are handled by the state remain a highly controversial and frequently criticized topic of national interest, yet little is known about the actual operations of the Child Welfare System. In "Fixing Families," Jennifer Reich takes us inside Child Protective Services for an in-depth look at the entire organization. Following families from the beginning of a case to its discharge, Reich shows how parents negotiate with the state for custody of their children, and how being held accountable to the state affects a family. During her investigation Reich had access to many levels of CPS action, and within each chapter are heartbreaking stories culled from her many ride-alongs with social workers, and the numerous juvenile court cases that she was able to observe--stories that illustrate the dramatic personal effects of bureaucratic decisions.

During the reings of Louis XV (1723-74) and Louis XVI (1774-92), fashion and furniture were not meant simply to be beautiful but were also intended to arouse, attract, and seduce. Published in response to the critically acclaimed and hugely popular exhibition held at the Metropolitan Museum in the fall of 2004, "Dangerous Liaisons Will focus on fashion and its interplay with the art, furniture, and decorative arts of eighteenth-century France. Featuring beautiful color photographs of the exhibition's installation, details of the garments, and supplementary historical material, the book demonstrates how the extravagant clothing of the period reiterated the splendor of Rococo and Neoclassical interiors.
