Abstract
This paper provides a book report of "Women and Warriors of the Plains", by Dan Aadland. The review looks at the general themes raised in Aadland's text as they focus upon the life of Plains Indians in the American Midwest during the early decades of the twentieth century. The paper also touches upon the life of early twentieth century photographer Julia E. Tuell, the woman to whom Aaland is indebted for the photographs in his book.
From the Paper
"Dan Aadland's Women and Warriors of the Plains is a revealing look at what life was like for the Cheyennes of Montana, the Sac and Fox of Oklahoma, and the Lakota tribe living on the reservations of South Dakota. In particular, Aadland describes the photography and captures the reminiscences of Julia Tuell, a woman who devoted a significant part of her life to recording the native people of the American Midwest at a time when they were still inscrutable to most whites. The following paper will explore Aadland's book and provide a summary of its content. More importantly, the following paper will provide an analysis and critique of the book with some emphasis being placed upon the extent to which Aadland's fawning treatment of Tuell's photography occasionally distracts from what should be the real focus of the book."

From the Paper
"Dan B. Allender approaches the subject of sexual abuse from two parallel perspectives. He bases his analysis of the adult experience of persons who were abused sexually as children on the fact that he has counseled many victims of sexual abuse as both pastor and clinical psychologist and that he too has had to deal with the reality of sexual abuse that he experienced as a child. His perspective is accordingly twofold. Even though he explains that he has taught secular courses in psychology and is a conventionally ..."

Table of Contents:

Concept of "The Great Physician" in "The Wounded Heart"
Allender and The Path Less Chosen
Hard Hitting Emotion in "The Wounded Heart"
Objective Critique of The Work
Closing Thoughts
From the Paper
"While the subject matter is hardly pleasant, and frankly emotionally disturbing, Allender brings home the hard hitting emotion in such a skillful and caring way that it is readable, which is a key consideration for those who need to read it most. While the book is certainly suitable reading for those who have not been sexually abused, for those who have been abused and carry round the pain and the guilt of that experience, or what Allender would call "a scarred heart and soul" , it is possible to read the book and derive value from the words because of the skillful and sympathetic way that it is written. Speaking from his own brutal experiences in life, as well as his educational background, Allender makes it possible for the reader to better understand exactly what the author is trying to share, and his genuine concern for the plight of the reader is clear."

This paper examines the opinions of critics who either love the novel or find fault with certain issues of the book.
From the Paper
"Blomberg mentions that the most important word in this book is "novel" (p.1). It is well written, fast-paced, with surprising turns of plot and intrigue regularly shocking readers, especially when they think they have figured things out. It contains all the elements of a good murder mystery, enough vivid portrayals that one can imagine the events depicted on location, especially if one is familiar with France and Britain, and bite-sized chapters that regularly end with a cliffhanger begging one to read more."

Abstract
This paper discusses the book "Raising Cain: Protecting the Emotional Life of Boys" written by Dan Kindlon and Michael Thompson. The paper contends that the book is an important and a fascinating read to all boys and their families. Both authors have been convincing in their argument that for boys it would be good if they become more 'emotionally literate' in order to comprehend their own feelings as well as others. The valuable and insightful proposal given by these writers would be welcomed by parents and teachers alike to learn how to stay tuned in to a boy and at the same time respect his autonomy. The paper claims that the book gives its readers a much-needed glimpse into the hidden or 'inner' lives of boys.
From the Paper
"The book Raising Cain: Protecting the Emotional Life of Boys reveals a realm of boys who are hurting sad, quiet, frightened and annoyed. According to the statistics in the book it is alarming that quite a number of young boys are at high risk for suicide, loneliness, drinking, drug abuse and violence. In light of those statistics the authors set out to answer this basic, vital question: What do boys need that they're not getting? In answering this, here, Kindlon and Thompson have shed light on the destructive emotional training boys receive which is basically in other words is called as the emotional mis-education of boys."

»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper critiques an article, "Savagery, Show and Tell", by Dan Dallas. The article reports a murder witnessed by a group of children, and their subsequent psychological treatment. The paper describes the article as a case study reporting on a particular crime and its aftermath, and further analyzes how the children are being treated by a team of psychologists, teachers and parents.
From the Paper
"The article entitled "Savagery, Show and Tell" by Dan Dallas is not an empirical study but is rather a case study reporting on a particular crime and its aftermath for a group of schoolchildren who witnessed the murder and who are being helped by a team of psychologists and teachers and by their parents, with the guidance of the psychologists and teachers. Thus, none of the specific elements of an empirical study are identified clearly or directly. Many of these concepts can be ascertained through a close study of the case and the way different groups operated, what they perceived, and what they wanted to measure."

Memogate, 2008.
A look at the events surrounding the CBS news report by anchor Dan Rather's regarding apparent gaps in George W. Bush's service in the Texas Air National Guard.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
On September 8, 2004, CBS news anchor Dan Rather aired a report on apparent gaps in presidential candidate George W. Bush's service in the Texas Air National Guard. In order to portray these gaps as evidence that Bush had received preferential treatment, Rather relied on memos that had allegedly been written by Lieutenant Colonel Jerry Killian, one of Bush's superiors during the early 1970's. Immediately after Rather's report, bloggers across the Internet began to raise doubts about the authenticity of these memos. By describing how the bloggers' suspicions eventually led to Rather's downfall, this paper attempts to show that the scandal revolved, not around the actual facts of Bush's service, but around the methods that CBS had used to gather and present documentary evidence.
From the Paper
"The report that aired on "60 Minutes Wednesday" featured an exclusive interview with Ben Barnes, a former lieutenant governor of Texas and speaker of the Texas House of Representatives, who said that he helped get Bush into the Texas Air National Guard at the pinnacle of the Vietnam War. As mentioned above, the report included documents from 1972 that were allegedly written by the late Lt. Col. Jerry Killian, one of Bush's former commanders. The Lt. Col. had previously alleged that Bush's Guard records had been "scrubbed" to hide information. The story was part of an investigation alleging that Bush benefited from political favoritism in getting out of commitments to the Texas Guard. The documents, supposedly made by Killian, included criticisms of Bush's service in the Guard and allegedly showed that Bush disobeyed orders. "
