Shirl is a single mother who urges her son's baby-sitter to swat him when he misbehaves. Helena went back to work to get off welfare, then quit to be with her small daughter. Kathy was making good money but got into cocaine and had to give up her two-year-old son during her rehabilitation. Pundits, politicians, and social critics have plenty to say about such women and their behavior. But in this book, for the first time, we hear what these women have to say for themselves. An eye-opening--and heart-rending--account from the front lines of poverty, Through My Own Eyes offers a firsthand look at how single mothers with the slimmest of resources manage from day to day. We witness their struggles to balance work and motherhood and watch as they negotiate a bewildering maze of child-care and social agencies. For three years the authors followed the lives of fourteen women from poor Boston neighborhoods, all of whom had young children and had been receiving welfare intermittently. We learn how these women keep their families on firm footing and try--frequently in vain--to gain ground. We hear how they find child-care and what they expect from it, as well as what the childcare providers have to say about serving low-income families. Holloway and Fuller view these lives in the context of family policy issues touching on the disintegration of inner cities, welfare reform, early childhood and pro-choice poverty programs.

We are human and respectable creations of God, be it women or any other gender, we have the fundamental right to dignity - says the author in his plea to be heard and recognised as he speaks as ‘Draupadi’. He speaks straight from the heart of Draupadi with an aim to share with everyone the torment and anguish that Draupadi and alike undergo every day and that every human being has the right to respect, freedom, happiness and the right to his or her opinion and point of view. But, is it possible in this male-dominated world? This is a question that is explored in this book and explained in a simple and contemporary fashion. The Author, who is himself a male, describes beautifully the pain of a women and alike.

Here I am sitting in my bed, wondering if I should write a book about my life, wondering if I had made the right choices in my life. Sometimes I ask myself: Where would I be or more likely what type of things would I be doing if I had stayed in France? Not because of my choices but when your name is Karima Zarouali, the doors to reality shut in front of you rather than open for opportunities. At this point it's like, should I change my name? Would it be easier for me to book hotels? Could I get a job easily? Well I'm a chef and you would think that getting a job would be easy at any time in France but believe me it wasn't the case so I decided to construct my life around London. Somehow I got stuck between the two countries. France is such a beautiful country with fine food and the air is purified (not in Paris obviously), I call it the breeze and London is the land of opportunity. London is fast and furious; I got caught with their way of living. How would I be living if I had a good childhood? Does it mean I will grow up towards a bad adulthood? What would have happened if I had stayed in France?This book has been my project for quite a while but I wasn't ready and now I feel that the time has come for me to reveal my life to certain persons who would understand better where I am coming from, why I am the way that I am, my temperament, my strengths and weaknesses.Let's begin by where it all began.

This book was released on 1995. With My Own Eyes available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. In this lovely and moving memoir, the world's most distinguished scholar of Jewish social history recalls a life that in many ways encapsulates the arduous path of the remnant of East European Jewry through the cataclysmic events of this century. After a childhood in the crumbling Hapsburg Empire, Jacob Katz left his native Hungary to attend the famous Yeshiva of Pressburg. He later entered the University of Frankfurt, where in 1934 he received the last doctorate granted to a Jew in Nazi Germany. Heeding ominous undercurrents, Katz immigrated to Palestine-Israel in 1936. There he witnessed the birth of the new state and the growth of the prestigious Hebrew University. With My Own Eyes, guided by the hand and eye of the consummate historian, poignantly recreates the atmosphere of the period in which the author has lived.
