Abstract

"Gentlemen Engineers tells the engaging story of the working lives of Frank and Walter Shanly, two well-connected nineteenth-century Canadian civil engineers and businessmen who worked on many of the significant projects of the age. Drawing on rich documentary sources, Richard White reveals details of their work, not just in the office and in the field, but in their homes and private studies as well." "The most striking discovery White makes is that when the brothers entered the civil engineering profession in the 1840s, it was already an established profession with a fairly high social status. The Shanlys were from an old Irish gentry family, but found the profession quite compatible with their social position and gentry culture. The author thoroughly explores the connection between the Shanlys as engineers and as gentlemen." "White finds another unexpected theme in the Shanlys' lives. In much of the recent social history of business, studies of elite nineteenth-century businessmen have tended to concentrate on how these men acquired, consolidated, and transmitted power and status over generations. But the careers of Frank and Walter Shanly were, in fact, full of hard work, struggle, and disappointment." "This study is an important contribution to our understanding of the professionalization of civil engineering, and to the modernization of business practices in nineteenth-century Canada."--Jacket.

Abstract

Standards and Guidelines for the Psychotherapies provides a comprehensive overview of the art and science of psychotherapy and a set of practice guidelines for psychiatrists. The main aim is to improve standards and practices, and to initiate discussion. This book was developed from a report by the Joint Task Force on Standards and Guidelines for Medical (Psychiatric) Psychotherapy, which was established by the Ontario Psychiatric Association and Ontario Medical Association (Section of Psychiatry). The report was prepared in response to four phenomena emerging in recent psychotherapy: 1) The realization that there were no written guidelines or standards for the practice of medical psychotherapy; 2) the changing forces that now influence health policy and funding, both in U.S. and Canada; 3) The potential for arbitrary deinsurance of some procedures in the absence of agreed upon standards, and without regard to the evidence for the effectiveness of psychiatric procedures; and 4) Growing concern regarding the problem of sexual abuse of patients by physicians. This is an excellent reference book for medical professionals practicing in the field of psychotherapy, and will prove to be a valuable resource in the ongoing practice and development of psychotherapy.

Abstract

"Many people believe that race relations in Canada are characterized by tolerance and compassion, and their complacent attitude has largely gone unchallenged, owing to an absence of racially based, systematic, and empirical data. In this study, Clayton Mosher combines extensive qualitative and quantitative data in new ways, and examines the antecedents of systemic racism in Canada's legal and criminal justice systems. He focuses on the experiences of Asians and Blucks in the province of Ontario for the 1892-1961 period and presents evidence of racism in Canada's immigration policies, as well as in its society through poor access to housing and property, employment, and services. His analysis demonstrates that Canadian law has been used to control and disadvantage Asians and Blacks through both direct action and interpretation, and through silence and complicity."--BOOK JACKET. "Mosher finds the explanation of criminal justice outcomes for minority groups in the interrelationships between the criminal justice system and other social institutions. He follows how differential police attention accorded minorities resulted in their experiencing higher rates of arrest, particularly for drug and public-order crimes, and how minorities' treatment in the criminal courts was negatively affected by the views held by court officials. Discrimination was rationalized in the popular media through stereotypical images of Asians and Blacks that defined them as threats to White victims."--Jacket
