For generations of anthropologists, the Baining people have presented a challenge, because of their apparent lack of cultural or social structure. This group of small-scale horticulturists seems devoid of the complex belief systems and social practices that characterize other traditional peoples of Papua New Guinea. Their daily existence is mundane and repetitive in the extreme, articulated by only the most elementary familial relationships and social connections. The routine of everyday life, however, is occasionally punctuated by stunningly beautiful festivals of masked dancers, which the Baining call play and to which they attribute no symbolic significance. In a new work sure to evoke considerable repercussions and debate in anthropological theory, Jane Fajans courageously takes on the "Baining Problem," arguing that the Baining define themselves not through intricate cosmologies or social networks, but through the meanings generated by their own productive and reproductive work.

Download How They Make It Work... 21 Habits of a Successful Marriage Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Throughout the course of my 45 years in private practice, I have at times wondered how it is that some couples do so well beyond therapy and on their own to improve and progress, while others who initially improve through the counseling process seem to fall back into many of their old and self-defeating habits. It took me a while but I now understand that often, those couples who fall back into their old destructive habits usually do so because they neglect to replace them with new and productive ones. Removing dysfunctional habits must be followed by developing new and healthy habits. "How They Make it Work..." addresses 21 new habits I have consistently observed through follow-up contacts that seem to help couples continue to thrive and to grow on their own beyond professional intervention. At the end of each of the 21 chapters are several questions designed to help you process together the new habits that are being suggested here. Since they have worked for others, there is more than a good chance they will work for you. Testimonials "Dr. Wimberly's book was thought provoking, straight forward and easy to apply in our effort to build a healthier, more successful marriage." Barbie Krabacher, early childhood educator "Rich in wisdom and helpful insights from an experienced therapist" Gordon Hess, Ph.D., retired therapist "HOW THEY MAKE IT WORK...21 Habits of a Successful Marriage is a straight forward guide to helping and healing any relationship. If you want to love and be loved in your relationship, here is a compass to help find your way". Noah BenShea, international best selling author, philosopher and speaker. "More than just a list of ideas to make a marriage better. Ed's book tackles the tough and underlying issues that can sabotage a relationship." B. Kirkpatrick, author of "Hard Left" and "The Resurrection of Johnny Roe". "Dr. Wimberly has with wisdom, humor and common sense, translated psychological principles into a highly useful guide for couples who want to improve their relationship". Dr. James Hilkey, forensic psychologist.

Download You'll Make It (and They Will Too) Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
A lifeline of hope for parents of teens who feel adrift on the real and raw parenting journey, presented with wisdom and faith—and a touch of candid humor—from seasoned educator, mother, and Today Parenting contributor Amy Betters-Midtvedt. “Parenting teens doesn’t come with a manual, but this book comes as close to one as I’ve ever read.”—New York Times bestselling author Rachel Macy Stafford As a mom with five kids ages twelve to twenty-two living at home, Amy Betters-Midtvedt found that parenting teens challenged everything she thought it meant to be a “good” mom. But in the unraveling came the building of something new and more beautiful than she could have imagined: an incredible sense of love, hope, joy, and relationship—even in the mess. You'll Make It (and They Will Too) is as much about navigating the minefields of anxiety and mental health as it is setting curfews, convincing kids to bring their dishes back to the kitchen, and deciding whose turn it is to have the car keys. It’s about dancing in the kitchen with soon-to-be adult kids who are taller than you. It’s making appointments with a therapist and a college admissions counselor in the same week. It’s helping your kids cling to faith even as they reject the pew on Sunday mornings. Through stories steeped in hope and prayer of both her professional and personal parenting journey, Amy shares: • words of comfort for when you feel alone, together with wisdom and strategies that will help you to not just survive the sleepless nights, but also to thrive as a stronger family unit • prayers to draw on God’s strength when everything feels overwhelming • a path forward with your teenagers that brings you into a lifelong loving relationship • ways to celebrate the beauty in your teens in all that they are, just as God made them Each chapter will leave you equipped, encouraged, and less alone by guiding you through how to listen to your own heart when parenting your precious teen.
