In A Vital Force: Women in American Homeopathy, Anne Taylor Kirschmann offers a new interpretation of women?s roles in both mainstream and alternative modern medicine. Kirschmann strengthens and clarifies the history of homeopathic women physicians, and creates a framework of comparison to `regular,` or orthodox, physicians. Linked to social reform movements in the nineteenth century, antimodernism in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and countercultural ideals of the 1960s and 1970s, women?s advocacy of homeopathy has been intertwined with broad social and cultural issues in… [detailed...]

By underwriting operating budgets and subcontracting the administration of programs to nonprofits, governments at all levels are able to take advantage of nonprofits? dedication, imagination, and private fund-raising skills.

After Erik’s death, she wrote several books extending their theory of the stages of life to reflect her understanding of aging as she neared ninety-five.

Publisher: —
Description: This compilation of quotes and quips encompasses just a few years, and was only considered when I looked in my folder one day and saw just how many I had written. Someone suggested to me that I try to get them published in this form, stressing that it might make a good Christmas stocking, birthday, coffee table sort of book-nothing more pretentious than that. I agreed with them, and so here it is. I hope you enjoy these quotes and quips and get a chuckle out of them. Some are more thought provoking than others, but none should result in countless hours of philosophical wrestling or endless questioning of the ethical content. They just represent those few short moments when I put pen to paper, and tried to express my ideas as expeditiously as possible, while attempting to configure them in a context that has that touch of humor in it. It`s something that a lot of us do, whether it be in written words, in art form, or just in casual speech at the… [detailed...]
