    Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: very good. Presumed First Edition, First Printing. [10], 194, [4] pages. Notes. Index. Some page discoloration. Congresswoman Schroeder candidly discusses her own family and family needs in an overview of family centered issues concerning the nation, including childcare, birth control, abortion, parental leave, family health care, and housing. Patricia Nell Scott "Pat" Schroeder (July 30, 1940 March 13, 2023) was an American politician who represented Colorado's 1st congressional district in the U. S. House of Representatives from 1973 to 1997. A Democrat, Schroeder was the first female U.S. Representative elected from Colorado and ran for president in 1988. She was the first woman to serve on the House Armed Services Committee, where she advocated for arms control and reduced military spending. She was a member of the Select Committee on Children, Youth, and Families. Schroeder balanced her congressional work with motherhood, bringing diapers to the floor of Congress. Her advocacy on work-family issues led Schroeder to become a prime mover behind the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 and the 1985 Military Family Act. Schroeder was involved in reform of Congress itself, working to weaken the control of committee chairs and questioning why Congress members who lived in their offices should not be taxed for the benefit. Schroeder styled herself as a "fiscally conservative liberal". In 1981, she voted against Reagan's tax cuts; she was against the 1986 tax-reform bill. In 1986 she had a 95% rating from Americans For Democratic Action and ranked by the National Taxpayers Union as more fiscally conservative than Jack Kemp. Andrea Camp served for many years as the press secretary and a senior policy advisor to Representative Pat Schroeder. Robyn Lipner worked closely on Pat Schroeder's legislative staff, specializing in the social and healthcare policies that shaped the book's core arguments on national family agendas. Derived from a Kirkus review: An accessible consideration of family policy issues from the Colorado congresswoman. Schroeder makes a clear-eyed case for a shifting of legislative and budgetary priorities--away from defense, towards laws and social programs that give families, and especially kids, an even break. Drawing on her belief that "people's everyday experiences are helping all of us to define family policy," she quotes from her own experience as a working mother (when Schroeder first entered the House in 1973, her children were two and six). Among the issues she raises: abortion rights; the need for research into safe and effective contraceptive options; education about birth control for teens; increased insurance coverage of fertility treatment; parental leave (to care for newborns or ill children); the rights of divorced wives to share in their husbands' pension benefits; methods of dealing with child abuse and domestic violence. She also discusses the need for safe, affordable child-care, assesses the effectiveness of alternatives such as flextime and job sharing, and considers the role of the federal government in licensing of care providers. Schroeder's plain-talking style and descriptions of her personal juggling act add flavor to her analysis. Reports, congressional testimony, and other materials make this a useful resource for family advocates; the calm overview may inform the nonspecialist willing to swallow the heavy dose of statistics, legislative history, and unabashed advocacy. In all, a powerful, well-argued call to action. Charles Archambault (jacket photograph) (illustratore).…

Patricia Nell Scott "Pat" Schroeder (July 30, 1940 - March 13, 2023) was an American politician who represented Colorado's 1st congressional district in the U. S. House of Representatives from 1973 to 1997. Schroeder was the first female U.S. Representative elected from Colorado and ran for president in 1988. She was the first woman to serve on the House Armed Services Committee, advocating for arms control and reduced military spending. She was a member of the Select Committee on Children, Youth, and Families. Schroeder balanced her congressional work with motherhood, bringing diapers to the floor of Congress. Her advocacy on work-family issues led Schroeder to become a prime mover behind the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 and the 1985 Military Family Act. Schroeder was involved in reform of Congress itself, working to weaken the control of committee chairs and questioning why Congress members who lived in their offices should not be taxed for the benefit. Schroeder styled herself as a "fiscally conservative liberal". In 1981, she was against Reagan's tax cuts and against the 1986 tax-reform bill. In 1986 she had a 95% rating from Americans For Democratic Action and ranked by the National Taxpayers Union as more fiscally conservative than Jack Kemp. Andrea Camp served for many years as the press secretary and a senior policy advisor to Representative Pat Schroeder. Robyn Lipner worked closely on Pat Schroeder's legislative staff, specializing in the social and healthcare policies that shaped the book's core arguments on national family agendas. Derived from a Kirkus review: An accessible consideration of family policy issues from the Colorado congresswoman. Schroeder makes a clear-eyed case for a shifting of legislative and budgetary priorities--away from defense, towards laws and social programs that give families, and especially kids, an even break. Drawing on her belief that "people's everyday experiences are helping all of us to define family policy," she quotes from her own experience as a working mother (when Schroeder first entered the House in 1973, her children were two and six). Among the issues she raises: abortion rights; the need for research into safe and effective contraceptive options; education about birth control for teens; increased insurance coverage of fertility treatment; parental leave (to care for newborns or ill children); the rights of divorced wives to share in their husbands' pension benefits; methods of dealing with child abuse and domestic violence. She also discusses the need for safe, affordable child-care, assesses the effectiveness of alternatives such as flextime and job sharing, and considers the role of the federal government in licensing of care providers. Schroeder's plain-talking style and descriptions of her personal juggling act add flavor to her analysis. Reports, congressional testimony, and other materials make this a useful resource for family advocates; the calm overview may inform the nonspecialist willing to swallow the heavy dose of statistics, legislative history, and unabashed advocacy. In all, a powerful, well-argued call to action. Signed.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of two workshops held at the 24th International Conference on Financial Cryptography and Data Security, FC 2020, in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia, in February 2020. The 39 full papers and 3 short papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 73 submissions. The papers feature four Workshops: The 1st Asian Workshop on Usable Security, AsiaUSEC 2020, the 1st Workshop on Coordination of Decentralized Finance, CoDeFi 2020, the 5th Workshop on Advances in Secure Electronic Voting, VOTING 2020, and the 4th Workshop on Trusted Smart Contracts, WTSC 2020.The AsiaUSEC Workshop contributes an increase of the scientific quality of research in human factors in security and privacy. In terms of improving efficacy of secure systems, the research included an extension of graphical password authentication. Further a comparative study of SpotBugs, SonarQube, Cryptoguard and CogniCrypt identified strengths in each and refined the need for improvements in security testing tools.The CoDeFi Workshop discuss multi-disciplinary issues regarding technologies and operations of decentralized finance based on permissionless blockchain. The workshop consists of two parts; presentations by all stakeholders, and unconference style discussions.The VOTING Workshop cover topics like new methods for risk-limited audits, new ethods to increase the efficiency of mixnets, verification of security of voting schemeselection auditing, voting system efficiency, voting system usability, and new technical designs for cryptographic protocols for voting systems, and new way of preventing voteselling by de-incentivising this via smart contracts.The WTSC Workshop focuses on smart contracts, i.e., self-enforcing agreements in the form of executable programs, and other decentralized applications that are deployed to and run on top of specialized blockchains.…
