Gender Power, Leadership, and Governance by Georgia Duerst-Lahti (Paperback - Univ of Michigan Pr)
Gender Power, Leadership, and Governance traverses U.S. politics as it develops the concept of gender power and questions why the ideological dimensions of masculinity - masculinism - have seldom been recognized. It finds gender power in startling places and offers revealing insights about the pervasive and reinforcing effects of masculinism. The book is organized around the idea that gender is an analytic category distinctive from sex, a property of institutions, and has symbolic meaning. While this idea has been explored in other disciplines, the application of it to the field of political science yields theoretically rich understandings of power and leadership and new perspectives on the stubborn obstacles women confront. The book crosses subfields of study in political science by mixing theory with empirical research, including cases from legislative, executive, and electoral politics. Policy, bureaucracy, symbolic politics, and institutional structures all come under scrutiny. It will be of interest to scholars of political science and women's studies, students and theorists of leadership or management, and anyone who wishes to explore the complex relationship between gender and politics.

The Portable Guide To Testifying In Court For Mental Health Professionals by Barton E. Bernstein (Pa
A one-stop guide to testifying in court for mental health professionals

Even the most seasoned mental health professionals can find themselves unnerved by the prospect of appearing in court, especially when presented with it for the first time. Those in the mental health field usually have no formal preparation for testifying in court, even though they often play an important part in many types of cases.

The Portable Guide to Testifying in Court for Mental Health Professionals provides a concise yet comprehensive guide for practitioners preparing to appear in court. The authors employ their combined decades of legal work in the mental health field to provide a clear, no-nonsense handbook of what to expect, how to prepare, and what to look out for when testifying in court.

Along with a general introduction to courts and the legal system, the text details topics such as:

  • Testifying both as an expert and involuntary witness
  • Protecting clients when bringing therapy into testimony
  • Preparing for testimony
  • Tips to use and lawyers' tricks to look out for when testifying in court

Throughout the book, Bernstein and Hartsell use detailed case studies to provide specific examples. In addition, "legal light bulbs" offer important tips and facts, and appendices list relevant Web resources and provide common legal forms.

A one-of-a-kind resource, The Portable Guide to Testifying in Court for Mental Health Professionals gives a complete view of your role in courtroom proceedings, offering a vital tool for both legal and mental health practices.
