Book Description: In A Mind Apart, Susanne Antonetta draws on her personal experience with manic depression, as well as interviews with people with multiple personality disorder, autism, schizophrenia, and other "neuroatypical" conditions, to construct a fascinating portrait of how the world shapes itself in minds that are profoundly different from the norm. As with her previous book, which Michael Pollan praised in the New York Times Book Review as "a challenge to our prevailing notions of science and journalism and even literary narrative, " A Mind Apart employs a unique fusion of literary genres to draw readers into the experience of people with neurological conditions and to consider what their alternate ways of perceiving may, in fact, have to teach us.

Pages are all intact and clan, however numerous pages have yellow highlighting, somewhat less towards rear of book. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 272 pages; The reflexive turn in qualitative research has transformed the process of doing life history research. No longer are research subjects examined through the lens of the all-knowing but supposedly invisible researcher. As Ardra Cole and Gary Knowles point out in this fresh introduction to conducting life history research, the process is now one of mutuality, empathy, sensitivity and caring. The authors carry the novice researcher through the steps of conducting life history research-- from conceptualizing the project to the various means of presenting results-- with an eye toward understanding the complex relationship between participant and researcher and how that shapes the project. In addition to examples from their own research, Cole and Knowles bring in the work of a dozen novice researchers who explain the challenges they faced in developing their own life history projects in a wide variety of settings. Well written, interesting, and pedagogically sound, LIVES IN CONTEXT is the ideal text for teaching life history research to students and an important reference for the bookshelf of all qualitative researchers.

Profusely illustrated in colour. ; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 128 pages; From a Reviewer: "Excellent Information and Great Projects! 5 Star Plus! ...I really have enjoyed this book! I am not what I would consider an artist and I needed something I could do easily at home. This book gave me all the information I needed to know about all the paints on the market, and all of the relevant tools I needed - making it very easy to shop, and there was a project that worked with each of the paints. The projects are great, they are not cheesy like some other books I have but, rather they are elegant, classic, tasteful and easy to duplicate. You will find lots of great ideas and I found the book easy to follow, inspiring, full of very useful information, and something fun I can handle. As the author, Carin Heiden Atkins, says something like this in her introduction - leave your worries at the door, sit back, play your favorite music, and have a great time. You really can do this. I have recommended this book to many friends and I whole heartedly recommend this book to you. " [563], Very Good+ Stock number: 11834. ISBN: 1581800797
