The UPtick: My Family from Slavery to Obama

This autobiography recounts the author's journey in life to present-day, as well as the experiences of her family that included slavery on both sides. As the author details her experiences with racism, struggles with martial life, and raising children in an ever-changing world, she shows that these "upticks" were God's way of leading her forward. Martha Marie Harris founded Business Management Tools, Inc., a company that provided management services and training to major corporations, business, education and government. In 1984, she wrote the book, "Tools for Survival" that sold 6000 copies. She spent 40 years as an educator working first as a teacher, then becoming an administrator and program developer. Martha served as an elementary principal, director for professional development and assisted in the management of multimillion dollar educational innovation programs for the Colorado Department of Education. Martha lived and worked in eight states, married four times and had two children, Roslyn and Roy, one grandson, Ahmed and a great grand daughter, Sadaaqa. Martha is retired. In "The Uptick" she traces her life and family from slavery including chronicles of her life today.

Psychology

This tract was commissioned from Donald Meltzer and Martha Harris in 1976 by the Organisation for Economic and Cultural Development as part of a project to develop policies and programs that would support families in their educational task. It was included in Sincerity: Collected Papers of Donald Meltzer (1994) but has never until now been published as an independent work in English, though it has been published in French, Spanish and Italian and has had extensive use in those countries by therapists, teachers, teacher-trainers and social workers. It is a unique work owing to its integration of a psychoanalytical theory of learning with an ecological conception of how the various systems involved in the educational process are interconnected, and as such is still of great present-day relevance, both to clinical and educational practitioners and to policy-makers.

The Educational Role of the Family: A Psychoanalytical Model (Psychology, Psychoanalysis & Psychotherapy)

The three books collected here in one volume were first published in 1969 as part of a complete year-by-year series on child development written by therapists from the Tavistock Clinic. The purpose of the series was to describe for parents the normal features and problems encountered in bringing up children from birth onwards. Martha Harris was unusually well qualified to write the books on the secondary school years, owing to her experience and training as teacher, teacher-trainer, psychoanalyst, and her position as head of the training of child psychotherapists in the Child and Family unit at the Tavistock for many years. She also co-operated with her husband Roland Harris―head of an inner-city comprehensive school―in pioneering a schools counselling service; and in addition to her direct professional experience she had teenage children at the time of writing these books. The books offer practical guidance in all the compartments of school and family life―friends, brothers and sisters, studies, leisure interests, together with the problem areas of harmful or anti-social behavior. These are set in the context of the mental and physical development of children in these growth-spurt years. In particular, parents are helped to consider imaginatively the impact of the teenager’s life at school, where most of their time is spent, yet which can frequently be a closed book to parents once their child has moved on from primary education.
