Cancer is indiscriminate. It cares little for class, creed or color. Its patients are literally everywhere. When Laura Holmes Haddad was diagnosed, she discovered shelf upon shelf of overly-earnest, somber, gray survival books, and knew there had to be a better way. This Is Cancer is the thoughtful, informative fabulous-looking result for those who prefer their pathos with equal parts humor and reality and a touch of flair. A "what to expect when you're expecting" book for the diagnosis you don't want but are stuck with, This Is Cancer is the book that patients keep in their "heading to the hospital bag," because it's the only one that tells them what's going on and keeps them company. Including such useful snippets as: There is no limit to what you will put yourself through when told it might save your life. Stay away from the Internet. And don't let anyone tell you "what they looked up" about your diagnosis. You'll be surrounded by people but you'll feel lonely, and alone, sometimes. Lexapro is Tylenol for the soul. If you don't like your doctor(s), find new ones. You will feel somewhat at the mercy of them, like they hold the key to your mortality, but in fact more than one doctor can potentially save you and some are nice and some are mean. Whether you or your loved ones want a primer full of useful information in an easy to reference format or a friendly and comforting read, the honest, grave, and mordantly funny stories and tips from young survivors will bring you the real intel and advice that you need most during this tremendously difficult time.

Threaded with concrete and actionable ways to improve the experience of substitute teaching for administrators, students, and the teachers themselves, Substantial Classrooms is a leading voice for innovation and renewal in substitute teaching. Instead of viewing substitute teachers as a placeholder in an educator’s absence, this book encourages readers to view substitute teachers as vital resources that diversify the typical classroom learning experience. While other books look only at making a bad situation bearable, this book re-examines substitute teaching with an eye towards reinventing it as a unique and valuable part of students’ educational experience. Key themes of Substantial Classrooms include: How substitute teaching works today Applying human-centered design to create change in legacy systems like substitute teaching Concrete and inspiring examples of different models for substitute teaching, for example, reimagining it as paid fieldwork for aspiring teachers. In addition to these key themes, every chapter includes stories and techniques from dynamic and innovative educational practitioners. This must-have guide to substitute teaching can improve schools everywhere and revolutionize the way educators, school and district leaders, colleges, and community partners view the experience of substitute teaching as a lever to positively impact schools.

Millions of people are producing and consuming knowledge via the digital components of the globalised, interconnected, and participatory “media ecosystem”, and this continues to have significant implications for society. However, the Internet exceeds the proverbial ‘bandwidth’ of researchers, and countless platforms and online environments have been overlooked and/or understudied. Consequently, there are substantial blind spots in what is known about the notorious and fully anonymous imageboard 4chan.org. 4chan ‘disproportionately’ influences the media ecosystem, and played a significant role in the consolidation of the extremist ‘alt-right’ and ‘Incel’ movements, but little is known about 4chan’s userbase. Based on the output of the PhD research of the same name, Dr Patrick Scolyer-Gray’s Fiction and Falsehood explores three research objectives, each achieved via a sociological mixed-methods ethnographic research design. First, using a combination of survey and interview data, the socio-political discourses that most frequently influence the socio-political perspectives of 4chan’s users are identified. The text offers empirical evidence that the most influential socio-political discourses on 4chan are consistent with an alt-right ideological framework. Second, how and why 4chan-discourses became integrated into the socio-political perspectives of the userbase is explored. The fine-grained insight provided by in-depth semi-structured interviews with 4chan-users is combined with Bourdieu’s ‘theory of practice’ to produce an explanatory framework based on ‘habitus-field congruency’. Third, empirical evidence of 4chan’s relationship with the public sphere is provided, and the implications of this relationship are explored. A formidable body of evidence dovetails into the author's argument that the memes produced by 4chan-users represent ‘symbolic ordnance’ that influence the public sphere by having a ‘disproportionate’ impact on the development of public opinion. A series of additional issues raised by 4chan’s relationship with the public sphere are also highlighted. 4chan, its users, the productions featured on the platform, intersections between discourses borne out of (or amplified by) 4chan and the broader information ecosystem and their respective interconnected relationships are examined in granular detail. Additionally, Fiction and Falsehood offers fresh insights into the origins and significance of the alt-right, a detailed exposition of methodological techniques of novelty and enduring relevance to researchers and private practitioners alike, and unique findings that will appeal to any reader interested in how online spaces are connected to broader societal trends.

When I moved into my new apartment after living on campus, I thought I'd be in for quiet, peaceful nights to myself. Little did I know how wrong I was. I used to be in the Marines and now I'm at war once again—I hate my next-door neighbors. Okay, maybe hate is a strong word, but they're obnoxious, loud and always throwing parties. It's possible the letters of complaint I keep leaving on their door aren't helping to de-escalate the situation, but in my defense, I can't stand the noise anymore. The last thing I expected was for one of the neighbors to write back. Even more unexpected, I'm starting to develop feelings for her. But how do you navigate a relationship with someone who was once so easy to hate, and is now almost as easy to love?
