This poignant selection of artifacts-and their stories-from September 11 provides an official, lasting record of that day's experience. In both text and photography, the story of September 11 is told through a selection of powerfully moving artifacts from the 9/11 museum's collection that serve as touchstones to the day and its aftermath. From crushed FDNY trucks to the steel that was pierced as planes struck the Twin Towers, from victims' property pulled from the wreckage and returned to families (who later donated the property to the museum) to spontaneous memorials collected from around Ground Zero, the array of objects tell complex and often surprising stories. Poignant artifacts as monumental as the Vesey Street staircase-which offered an escape for thousands fleeing the towers-and as intimate as a loved one's wedding band or last recorded phone message are selected to illuminate people's experiences during and after September 11, 2001, and February 26, 199...
What's Your Baby Thinking? : Understanding and Delighting in Your Very Little Person (9781925648966)
Many parents feel they must wait until their child is mobile or able to speak before any real relationship can begin. We know for example that the foetus is prepared for the extra-uterine environment form the beginning of the 3rd trimester. Parents need the opportunity to be aware that their baby is yearning for their love, attention and interest. The first developmental task for the infant for example, is not holding their head up, sitting or crawling but the development of a relationship.
The aim of this book is to highlight in a very accessible and sometimes humorous way the newborn infant's innate capacities for social interaction. The infant's communications may be subtle at first but with a little patience and a parental willingness to observe and think about their baby, these quickly become apparent. Science and psychology has demonstrated that the infant has remarkable capacities for perceiving and responding to the emotions and actions of others and that these early experiences literally structure the development of the brain.
The book introduces some of the signs an infant might give of their physical and emotional states and needs, e.g. when they are tired, hungry and when they are wanting and available for interactions. It counters the age-old myth that parents must not respond to their child too soon or they will "spoil" their new baby. The book acknowledges that parenting a new infant is a challenging task and also encourages parents to find supports of their own when they need to.
Another aim of this book is to bring a number of excellent references and resources to the attention of those who work with parents and infants. At the end of the book are some excellent resources designed to enhance the knowledge of parents and professionals alike.They range from high quality and easily accessible DVDs to the challenging reading inherent in the work of researchers.
