The Trauma-Informed Pediatric Practice

R.J. Gillespie

In this approachable book, a pediatrician (Gillespie) and a psychologist (King) walk step by step through the transformational process of creating a trauma-informed practice. They address the debate over “ACE screening,” and share how to prepare an organization for change, assess risks to relational health, support caregivers, use resilience-based interventions, and finally how to sustain a trauma-responsive practice. In the hands of Gillespie and King, what may seem like an overwhelming undertaking becomes one that we can—and must—undertake to fully support the health and wellbeing of children.

California Family Law

John E.B. Myers

Family law is enormously complex, and the details of the subject vary from state to state. Most students enrolled in family law at California law schools plan to practice in California. This casebook is unique among family law books in its focus on California law. The book provides a thorough introduction to the day-to-day work of California family law attorneys. The book refers throughout to the California Family Code. Most cases in the book are from California courts.The book provides a California focus on the subjects covered by other family law casebooks, including premarital agreements, agreements between unmarried cohabitants, marriage and divorce, annulment, child and spousal support, child custody, the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act, the Hague Convention on International Parental Child Abduction, property division, adoption, and alternative reproductive technology. In addition, because many students in family law have a strong desire to help children and families, the book has a chapter on the juvenile court.The Chapter on California community property law is lengthy, and is designed to prepare students for community property questions on the California bar exam. Some students take family law because the Uniform Bar Exam (UBE) tests family law. This casebook prepares students for the UBE.

The Ground at My Feet

Ann Stinson

Ann Stinson grew up on her family’s tree farm in southwestern Washington state, on a ridge above the Cowlitz River. After building a life in New York and Portland, she returned home at the age of fifty, when her brother’s death from cancer left her manager and co-owner of three hundred acres planted in Douglas fir, western red cedar, and ponderosa pine.The Ground at My Feet is a memoir about loss and grief as well as a portrait of a family, a region, and an industry. Combining personal story and research, Stinson weaves essays, poems, history, and science into a rich and layered account of life in a family forest in the Pacific Northwest. She maps interactions between the land and its people over two centuries: the Cowlitz peoples, homesteaders, and several generations of logging families who have worked the property. She follows her family’s logs as they become lumber for fence boards and suburban homes, touring a local cedar mill and traveling with her father to visit mills in Japan. Stinson adds a landowner’s voice to conversations about the human tendency to demand more of the land than it can sustain. With its uniquely personal view of the Pacific Northwest’s timber and forestry heritage, The Ground at My Feet is an engaging addition to the literature of the landscape and ecology of the West.

Pediatric Collections: Enriching Pediatric Learning

Susan Bannister

COMSEP, the Council of Medical Student Education in Pediatrics, is a community of pediatric educators committed to supporting each other and delivering excellent pediatric education to medical students.  The articles and commentaries in this Pediatric Collection, titled Enriching Pediatric Learning: A Guidebook for Preceptors, have been written by COMSEP members, and the principles of our organization have driven much of their work. The 35 articles in this Pediatric Collection have been grouped by themes, and together they describe skills and strategies to improve clinical teaching with practical tips that can be put in to use that day with a trainee.  We hope that this Collection, too, will be a practical resource that will support preceptors and educators in their quest to teach, assess, and inspire the medical students with whom they work.
