It is intended to be studied and enjoyed by boys and girls alike. Gill Patterson and Kirsty Maxwell suggest to their readers that the whole compass of a woman's life, as it is likely to be lived between now and 2000 AD, should be examined, discussed and considered. Such consideration by teenage students in late twentieth century New Zealand has undeniable social relevance.\r\n\r\nGiven the fact that the post industrial economy has little need for workers whose main job qualification is physical strength, and that the range of service employment opportunities widens whilst production becomes more and more\r\ncomputerised and less and less needful of human labour, the economic, emotional, sexual and social relationships between the sexes requires much rethinking.\r\n\r\nSex stereotyped roles defined in late Victorian and Edwardian times are not necessary features of the economy and society in which we actually live.\r\n\r\nWoman or Person meets the needs of the 1978 Social Studies syllabus by raising questions and suggesting enquiries. It does not recommend apparently final answers to issues which puzzle us all.\r\n\r\nThis addition to the Resource series is designed to stimulate pupils' discussion, research, reporting and evaluation skills. The authors have created a text suitable for use with mixed ability classes and shaped to lend itself to a teaching reading approach if classroom needs require this.\r\n\r\nThis book will meet a long felt want in the secondary schools' social studies programmes in that it deals with the country's largest cultural minority group.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003ch4 align=\"left\"\u003eThe Bookworms Mission:\u003c\/h4\u003e We strive to reduce unnecessary landfill by taking used books, second-hand books, paperback books, hardback books, pre-loved books, great reads and recycled books and then redistributing them throughout New Zealand, Australia and the rest of the world.

We live in a world where a burgeoning global population has started to have a major and destructive environmental impact. The results, including climate change and the struggle for limited resources, appear to be inevitable aspects of a difficult future. Mandatory population control might be a possible last resort to combat this problem, but is also a potentially immoral and undesirable violation of human rights. Since so many view procreation as an essential component of the right to personal happiness and autonomy, the dominant view remains that the government does not have the right to impose these restrictions on its own citizens, for the sake of future people who have yet to exist.Sarah Conly is first to make the contentious argument that not only is it wrong to have more than one child in the face of such concerns, we do not even retain the right to do so. In One Child, Conly argues that autonomy and personal rights are not unlimited, especially if one's body may cause harm to anyone, and that the government has a moral obligation to protect both current and future citizens. Conly gives readers a thought-provoking and accessible exposure to the problem of population growth and develops a credible view of what our moral obligations really are, to generations present and future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003ch4 align=\"left\"\u003eThe Bookworms Mission:\u003c\/h4\u003e We strive to reduce unnecessary landfill by taking used books, second-hand books, paperback books, hardback books, pre-loved books, great reads and recycled books and then redistributing them throughout New Zealand, Australia and the rest of the world.
