I Am Not a Juvenile Delinquent
After the death of her child, a grief-stricken psychotherapist volunteers as a poetry teacher at a residential treatment facility for delinquent girls. Here, their mutual support is nourishing and enriching to them all, though not without large quantities of drama and recalcitrance. For fans of the acclaimed movies Stand and Deliver and The Freedom Writers Diary comes I Am Not a Juvenile Delinquent .
Selling Points: • Healing from grief can come in surprising ways, as it did for both the girls and me. It can come through the acts of writing and sharing our writing with each other, across generations and social classes. • There is not only a need but a curiosity and interest to know the “secret lives” of those behind bars or in detention centers; the great success of a program like “Orange Is The New Black” certainly emphasizes this point. Much of “I Am Not a Juvenile Delinquent” details the daily experiences of girls in detention, which are compelling, appealing, poignant and often hilarious. • The importance to the world of knowing the potential this population and breaking stereotypes, especially at this time of political tumult, the rising tides of racism and prejudice. Much of the world too easily slaps labels (“juvenile delinquent”) on these kids with little understanding or concern about how they arrived in these circumstances, and therefore incarcerates them with little regard to their emotional needs and rehabilitation.
Focus on Geodatabases in ArcGIS Pro
Focus on Geodatabases in ArcGIS Pro introduces readers to the geodatabase, the comprehensive information model for representing and managing geographic information across the ArcGIS platform. Sharing best practices for creating and maintaining data integrity, chapter topics include the careful design of a geodatabase schema, building geodatabases that include data integrity rules, populating geodatabases with existing data, working with topologies, editing data using various techniques, building 3D views, and sharing data on the web. Each chapter includes important concepts with hands-on, step-by-step tutorials, sample projects and datasets, 'Your turn' segments with less instruction, study questions for classroom use, and an independent project. Instructor resources are available by request. Note: This e-book requires ArcGIS software.

Abstract Machine
In <em>Abstract Machine</em>, author Charles Travis uses GIS technology to interpret, analyze, and visualize literary, historical, and philosophical texts. Travis's study shows how mapping language patterns, fictional landscapes, geographic spaces, and philosophical concepts helps support critical analysis. Travis bases his interpretive model upon the ancient Greek and Roman practice of <em>geographia</em>, and applies it to works by authors including Samuel Beckett, Patrick Kavanagh, Flann O’Brien, and James Joyce. Travis illustrates how scholars in the humanities can experiment with GIS to create visualizations that support and illustrate their critical analysis of humanities texts, and survey, navigate, and imagine various story-paths through space and time.
GIS Tutorial for Health
A handbook for teaching GIS to healthcare professionals, this reference discusses learning GIS software in the context of visualizing and analyzing health-related data. By outlining a hands-on approach that simulates how a GIS project would be developed in the real world, the included exercises set the student loose on real data with a tangible, clearly-defined end-product as the goal. A companion CD-ROM includes additional exercises for each tutorial chapter with integrated cases that cut across chapters.
