If you have problems getting your kids to sleep, or getting them to sleep through the night, this is the perfect book for you. What is sleep? Can we blame natural circumstances for the chronic, pervasive sleep deficits that our children often suffer? Or, should we look to nurture - parenting styles and their effects on sleep patterns? To answer these important questions, Dr. Jennifer Smith draws on the findings of academic research and her vast experience as a practising cognitive, developmental and counselling psychologist. The strategies she offers to deal with debilitating sleep habits have been found to be indispensable to families. Written in a friendly style and brilliantly illustrated by Eloise Hairman, this book is both informative, entertaining, and easy to read when you're tired.

How we vary our speech is fundamental in signalling who we are, where we're from and where we're going. How and when does such variation arise? Here, leading experts Jennifer Smith and Mercedes Durham address this question through a sociolinguistic analysis of the speech of preschool children in interaction with their primary caregivers. Bringing together two fields of linguistic research - variationist sociolinguistics and first language acquisition - the study focusses both qualitative and quantitative analysis of a range of variables to show when and how variation is acquired by young children, and the effect the caregiver's interaction has on this process. In doing so, they tackle a fundamental question in language research: when and how do children acquire the highly complex patterns of variation widely attested in adult speech?

Women, Mysticism, and Hysteria in Fin-de-SiÈcle Spain argues that the reinterpretation of female mysticism as hysteria and nymphomania in late nineteenth and early twentieth century Spain was part of a larger project to suppress the growing female emancipation movement by sexualizing the female subject. This archival-historical work highlights the phenomenon in medical, social, and literary texts of the time, illustrating that despite many liberals' hostility toward the Church, secular doctors and intellectuals employed strikingly similar paradigms to those through which the early modern Spanish Church castigated female mysticism as demonic possession. Author Jennifer Smith also directs modern historians to the writings of Emilia Pardo BazÁn (1851-1921) as a thinker whose work points out mysticism's subversive potential in terms of the patriarchal order. The only woman author studied here, Pardo BazÁn, unlike her male counterparts, rejected the hysteria diagnosis and promoted mysticism as a path for women's personal development and self-realization.
