Narratives of Social and Economic Justice answers the call from social work educators for academic resources that deal with cross-cutting issues and cover a broad spectrum of domains and specializations-gerontological social work, social policy, health, mental health, and social justice.
 A companion to Dr. Roberta R. Greenes earlier Resiliency: An Integrated Approach to Practice, Policy, and Research, Narratives of Social and Economic Justice thoroughly elucidates the theoretical underpinnings of resiliency-based practice and makes a compelling case for its ascendancy as a model for building strong families and communities. 
 This volume-coauthored with Harriet L. Cohen, John Gonzalez, and Youjung Lee-is a masterful capstone to Dr. Greenes impressive oeuvre. Narratives of Social and Economic Justice is an indispensable addition to the bookshelves of social work educators, practitioners, and policymakers and to social sciences library collections. As an educational resource, this book will foster the insights and skills that social workers need to effectively combat racial and ethnic disparities and promote optimal human development.

by Yoojung Lee Perverto is just a regular 17-year-old with the unavoidable nickname, "pervert." Unlike his namesake, he's actually quite naïve when it comes to sexual matters; his first and only youthful romance having ended terribly. To escape his bad reputation, he transfers to a new school for a fresh start. But on his first day there, he's falsely accused of groping a girl named Hongdan on the subway. To make matters worse, she happens to be another new student who has just transferred to his new school, to his very class. The real pervert who framed him is a math teacher at his new school, too! The teacher is an expert at getting away with perverted behavior...and he's targeted Hongdan for more gropes. The girl possesses a voluptuous body and mysterious bruises, and Perverto is smitten with her. But when Hongdan expresses her romantic interest in him out of the blue, Perverto is reminded of the hurtful memories of his first love and runs away screaming. Will he survive his new school? The true nature of Perverto wiggles to the surface in Volume 1 of this sexy new series!
