From the Paper
"Keeping one's mind active is important at Corabeth's age, and as a bridge player, she obviously does so. However, that important source of cognitive stimulation may end because members of her bridge club keep dying off with increasing frequency. Corabeth also seems to use her considerable advanced-level cognitive understandings about early childhood development, of which Katie has none, to select music and toys for Drake, and to spend time with him in ways that will stimulate his intelligence, desire for more physical activity, and overall curiosity about and interest in his surroundings, all of which are in currently very short supply as a result of Drake's extremely inadequate parenting up-to-now, about which Erikson and Piaget, with their distinctive theories of childhood development, including their various respective observations on cognitive development in early childhood in particular, would likely generally concur (see for example Bransford, Brown, & Cocking, 1999).

From the Paper
"When the hardcover edition of Katie Rophie's book The Morning After: Sex Fear, and Feminism was first published in 1993, the author was attacked by feminist writers, university students and some faculty members for her views and lack of scholarship. Rophie's major argument was that the new feminist movement was turning itself into a cult of victimhood, assigning women the role of powerless victims. It was this argument that set off the worldwide protest by feminists and their supporters. The book, written by Rophie when she was a doctoral candidate at Princeton University, was based on her experiences, both personal and educational, and her observations as a Harvard undergraduate and at Princeton."

From the Paper
"The purpose of this research is to examine issues and questions associated with black womanist ethics, especially as put forward by Katie G. Cannon. The plan of the research will be to describe the background for Cannon and the outline of ideas contained in her collection of essays on the subject, to provide a brief synthesis of her ethical approach, emphasizing her major contributions to the field of ethics, and then to provide a personal critique of the strengths and weaknesses of Cannon's arguments. This is all based on two major areas: (1) Cannon's own work, and (2) ideas and criticisms of her ideas.
Cannon's view of black womanist ethics can be traced to Alice Walker's definition of the terms womanism and womanist. Walker's definition of womanism contains four areas of concern: outrageous or willful, grown-up behavior by black feminists or .."

Women and Self-Defense, 2001.
This paper discusses how women's self-defense programs and courses empower females against potential rapists and date rape and examines Katie Roiphe's book, "The Morning After: Sex, Fear, and Feminism on Campus".

Abstract
This paper argues that physically fighting back and the type of physical self-confidence gained through defense sports and sports in general should come to the forefront of the debate against rape. The author does not suggest that women?s defending themselves physically can replace the legal process as a way of punishing rapists. The issue is how women can both protect themselves and, if they have been raped or assaulted, find a way to cope with the tragedy which has occurred. The paper looks at numerous publications regarding feminism, self-defense, date rape and female sexuality.
From the Paper
"It is the contention of this paper that women?s self-defense, particularly martial arts, gives women the best kind of physical and mental confidence to resist rape and to overcome the trauma of rape. Martial Arts enables a woman to feel confident about her body, not as something passive and used, but as something strong and resilient. For women whom have been raped, it enables them to see a difference in what their bodies can do since they experienced the crime. It gives them something physical and concrete to do, in place of or in addition to simply to rehashing the details of the crime over and over again. Women who are prosecuting their attacker may be forced to do even if they do not participate in a Take Back the Night march, and if they do so in such a context they are not doing it in a ?safe space? but a contentious one. This could make the act of speaking about the crime to be less cathartic."

Abstract

There are 12 stories of presidential couples, ranging from Edith and Woodrow Wilson to Laura and George W. Bush. The author of the paper comments that many people take the presidential wives for granted and do not realize the influence they have on their husbands.
From the Paper
"Rosalynn Carter was known for being the one who actually enjoyed politics, unlike her husband, who did not. Many believe he would not have been President if not for her. She was even known to go into broadcast studios and have a prepared list of questions they ?might like to ask?. (Hidden Power p.224) Many times she would sit in at Camp David negotiations and took notes for her husband. During her husband?s presidency she seemed to help carry the load when her husband lacked a quality needed."

Abstract
In "Where Wizards Stay up Late, the Origins of the Internet", Katie Hafner and Matthew Lyon explore the beginnings of the Internet. The authors show us how it was a computer-engineering firm that produced the original prototypes for "Arpanet" and how several very intelligent men made the Internet possible. The book is excellent in that it brings to the limelight many important people that played an important role in devising the Internet. In other words, therefore, this book is a history as well as a work of drama. It tells a very intriguing story of how the computer technology for the Internet was devised. In many respects, it is very much a "behind-the-scenes" kind of documentary.
