credit hours of physical education, including the mandatory P.E. 100, which covers the basics of health and exercise.

move from hoping for a happier and healthier future, to actually having one. In couples therapy, “hope happens” as couples move from a position of uncertainty about the future of their relationship to a belief and feeling that their relationship can improve.

cranking out five introductions (one for each part of the Work) in the space of three months; we knew these would be crucial for allowing readers to understand Dupin’s context and appreciate her claims. Wow, that is a lot of work! Yeah, and clearly, the jurors who selected our book for the 2024 French-American Foundation Translation Prize took a broad view of translation.

a crowded, noisy courtyard in Warsaw in 1939. Soldiers were screaming, and crowds, his neighbors, were being loaded into boxcars. Suddenly, Elbaum’s mom, Pauline, appeared out of the crowd, waving a paper in front of the German guards. She worked in a ghetto factory making uniforms for the Nazis, and had managed to get her manager to sign a reprieve for her family – even though the entire block where the his family lived was being shipped off that day.
