Dear Margi,

theres is a very good book called childhood sexual abuse, sexuality,
pregnancy and birthing  by Patricia Smith. It costs $30.00 through Capers.
I don't know of any other company who stock this book, but its definitely
worth a read.

Kind regards
Deb Minge

 Hi all

  I want to start reading books on sexual abuse and birth  but don't want
to
 just go to a bookshop/library without some good personal recommendations.

 TIA

 Margie

RE: Book

2001-10-17 Thread Jane Palmer



Dear 
all

I'd 
like to differentiate between copyright infringement that Joy and Pinky are 
talking about and stories for the 'The Birth Book'. In no way did I infringe 
copyright.

People 
had emailed me privately with their birth stories after a request for birth 
storiesfor inclusioninto the'The Birth Book' was placed on 
ozmidwifery. A follow up email was sent to all those who sent me stories 
confirming permission. Though I do think Pinky's written permission is 
agood idea (which is something I now do) and so is having better back up 
for the computer (which I might add I now have in place).

Pinky 
-I can request a copy of the book from the publisher for those who had 
their stories reproduced. I'm sure the publisherwouldn't 
mind.

If you 
are interested - 'The Birth Book' is a collection of women's birth stories and 
makes for really interesting reading.

Cheers

  You make an important point - I too have 
  had work "ripped off" from my website. I must say I was flabbergasted 
  and quite furious. In the case that I discovered I actually pointed out that 
  this was a breach of copyright and asked for it to be removed within 24 hours 
  or I would take legal action - this was an Australian site - not sure how this 
  applies internationally in a practical sense - although it is definitely a 
  legal issue. 
  
  I have also come across sections from 
  articles I have written in various newspapers that I was unaware had been used 
  in Books - I dont mind if I am acknowleged and people have toldme 
  EXACTLY what they are using but I was shocked to find a direct quote 
  ina book on body imageby a well known Melbourne writer/ cartoonist 
  a few years ago that simply referenced my article as "Belly Dancing 
  article Sunday Age ". -Not even my name as the author and certainly no request 
  for permission.
  
  In the case of the birth stories, Jane has 
  obviously asked permission initially but some publishers seem to be less than 
  clear about the definition of "permission" For Parenting By Heart, I actually 
  had permission forms filled in by people I interviewed - even thougn I wrote 
  up the interviews and in many cases used pseudonyms. the very few people 
  who supplied their own stories were offered "payment' - most requested 
  copies of the book.
  Jane - can you get your publisher to send 
  these people free copies if they give you their addresses?
