The Follies and Garden Buildings of Ireland
This volume - the first to focus solely on follies and garden buildings in Ireland - recreates in word and image the wonder of these architectural oddities. James Howley examines buildings mainly from the 18th and 19th centuries and from all four provinces of Ireland, placing them in their architectural and historical contexts. Illustrated with recent photographs showing the detail and settings of the buildings in the 21st century, as well as old…

Foster child behavior
Racial differences in health care utilization among children in foster care
Family characteristics and measures of behavior in foster and nonfoster children
Behavior scores of maltreated children in foster care were compared with those of a homogeneous group of children who had never been in care. Mean scores for foster children were significantly higher than those for controls. After controlling for group differences in family structure and stability, differences in behavior scores between groups were not significant
Physical disabilities as risk factors for child maltreatment
The child maltreatment literature, which implies that children with physical disabilities may be at increased risk for abuse or neglect, is evaluated with reference to theoretical, definitional, and methodological concerns. Research issues are discussed and suggestions made for further delineating and defining the nature of any linkages that may exist
Selected perinatal factors and child abuse
A matched pair case-control study was conducted to compare birth weights, gestations, and length of hospital stay (LOS) of 532 children subsequently reported as physically abused with comparable data from a group of control children matched on age, sex, race, and maternal education. Our results indicated a moderate association between both low birthweight and very short gestation with physical abuse. Results for LOS were inconclusive
The VW Story by Jerry Sloniger, and
TECHNOLOGY AND CULTURE Book Reviews 365 Withal, Yates makes a persuasive case for his interpretation. The worst that could be said about the argument is that, rather than being incorrect, it is skewed toward design features. Yates seems to me sound in accepting the country’s basic automobile dependency as proceeding from the public’s tastes and income levels. He has little sympathy for Ralph Nader and others who oppose that dependency. The book i…

The VW Story
"Whither the Urban History Exhibit? The Peale Museum's "Rowhouse
Urban history as a holistic exhibit theme is a comparatively recent phenomenon. The history of cities typically has been treated in fragmented and indirect fashion by local historical societies, municipal museums, and historic preservation agencies. These institutions have focused on the famous and well-to-do, on politics and epic events, and on architecture, furnishings, and the decorative arts in relation to cities. Their exhibits have tended t…
