Peter Cook has been a pivotal figure within the architecture world for over half a century. He first came to international renown in the 1960s as a founder of the radical experimental group Archigram winners of the 2002 RIBA Royal Gold Medal. He is also former Director of the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) London and Emeritus Professor and former Chair of the Bartlett School of Architecture (University College London). Suffused with Peter’s infectious energy enthusiasm and charm this intriguing memoir explores major themes in architecture through the lens of his life and work. Taking the reader on a journey through his colourful and wide-ranging career it touches on his early years and architectural education his relationships with key figures within the architecture community and his work teaching and lecturing internationally. It also provides an inside account of his leadership of the Bartlett for which he is frequently credited as a central figure in rescuing the reputation of a once-ailing now world-famous school of architecture. Featuring full-colour images of his most famous drawings including Archigram’s ‘Plug-in City’ and built works such as the Kunsthaus Graz in Austria and the Vienna Economics and Business University’s Department of Law and Central Administration Buildings this book is a window into the life of one of architecture’s most celebrated rebels. | Lives in Architecture Peter Cook

Recalibrating Juvenile Detention Lessons Learned from the Court-Ordered Reform of the Cook County Juvenile Temporary Detention Center

Recalibrating Juvenile Detention Lessons Learned from the Court-Ordered Reform of the Cook County Juvenile Temporary Detention Center

Recalibrating Juvenile Detention chronicles the lessons learned from the 2007 to 2015 landmark US District Court-ordered reform of the Cook County Juvenile Temporary Detention Center (JTDC) in Illinois following years of litigation by the ACLU about egregious and unconstitutional conditions of confinement. In addition to explaining the implications of the Court’s actions the book includes an analysis of a major evaluation research report by the University of Chicago Crime Lab and explains for scholars practitioners administrators policymakers and advocates how and why this particular reform of conditions achieved successful outcomes when others failed. Maintaining that the Chicago Crime Lab findings are the gold standard evidence-based research (EBR) in pretrial detention Roush holds that the observed firsts for juvenile detention may perhaps have the power to transform all custody practices. He shows that the findings validate a new model of institutional reform based on cognitive-behavioral programming (CBT) reveal statistically significant reductions in in-custody violence and recidivism and demonstrate that at least one variation of short-term secure custody can influence positively certain life outcomes for Chicago’s highest-risk and most disadvantaged youth. With the Quarterly Journal of Economics imprimatur and endorsement by the President’s Council of Economic Advisors the book is a reverse engineering of these once-in-a-lifetime events (recidivism reduction and EBR in pretrial detention) that explains the important and transformative implications for the future of juvenile justice practice. The book is essential reading for graduate students in juvenile justice criminology and corrections as well as practitioners judges and policymakers. | Recalibrating Juvenile Detention Lessons Learned from the Court-Ordered Reform of the Cook County Juvenile Temporary Detention Center

Britain Canada and the North Pacific: Maritime Enterprise and Dominion 1778–1914

Britain Canada and the North Pacific: Maritime Enterprise and Dominion 1778–1914

From the time of Cook the British and their Canadian successors were drawn to the Northwest coast of North America by possibilities of trade in sea otter and the wish to find a 'northwest passage'. The studies collected here trace how under the influences of the Royal Navy and British statecraft the British came to dominate the area with expeditions sent from London Bombay and Macau and the Canadian quest from overland. The North West Company came to control the trade of the Columbia River despite American opposition and British sloop diplomacy helped overcome Russian and Spanish resistance to British aspirations. Elsewhere in the Americas the British promoted trans-Pacific trade with China harvested British Columbia forests conveyed specie from western Mexico and established the South America naval station. The flag followed trade and vice versa; empire was both formal (at Vancouver Island) and informal (as in California or Mexico). This book features individuals such as James Cook William Bolts Peter Pond and Sir Alexander Mackenzie. It is also an account of the pressure that corporations placed on the British state in shaping the emerging world of trade and colonization in that distant ocean and its shores and of the importance of sea-power in the creation of modern Canada. | Britain Canada and the North Pacific: Maritime Enterprise and Dominion 1778–1914

Linguistic Justice Black Language Literacy Identity and Pedagogy

Linguistic Justice Black Language Literacy Identity and Pedagogy

Bringing together theory research and practice to dismantle Anti-Black Linguistic Racism and white linguistic supremacy this book provides ethnographic snapshots of how Black students navigate and negotiate their linguistic and racial identities across multiple contexts. By highlighting the counterstories of Black students Baker-Bell demonstrates how traditional approaches to language education do not account for the emotional harm internalized linguistic racism or consequences these approaches have on Black students' sense of self and identity. This book presents Anti-Black Linguistic Racism as a framework that explicitly names and richly captures the linguistic violence persecution dehumanization and marginalization Black Language-speakers endure when using their language in schools and in everyday life. To move toward Black linguistic liberation Baker-Bell introduces a new way forward through Antiracist Black Language Pedagogy a pedagogical approach that intentionally and unapologetically centers the linguistic cultural racial intellectual and self-confidence needs of Black students. This volume captures what Antiracist Black Language Pedagogy looks like in classrooms while simultaneously illustrating how theory research and practice can operate in tandem in pursuit of linguistic and racial justice. A crucial resource for educators researchers professors and graduate students in language and literacy education writing studies sociology of education sociolinguistics and critical pedagogy this book features a range of multimodal examples and practices through instructional maps charts artwork and stories that reflect the urgent need for antiracist language pedagogies in our current social and political climate. | Linguistic Justice Black Language Literacy Identity and Pedagogy

Primary Health Care and Population Mortality

Primary Health Care and Population Mortality

Population health management is being increasingly adopted by health systems yet the importance of primary health care in influencing population mortality and the mechanisms that explain it are not well understood. Too often primary health care is regarded as a service for minor health problems and for managing access to secondary care. This limited view is no longer tenable and it is time to be much more ambitious about the place of primary health care in health systems worldwide. In delivering and planning health care and in re-building health systems after the pandemic practitioners and policymakers in low- middle- and high-income countries need evidence on how primary health care affects population mortality and practical advice to effect change. Primary Health Care and Population Mortality fulfils this need. Drawing on his long experience as both a practitioner and researcher the author Richard Baker describes how primary health is crucial to the effect of health systems on population mortality including its potential for reducing inequalities in mortality. This accessible new book will provide invaluable information to leaders in service development and delivery academics in primary health care and those working within international organisations that are promoting primary health care for improving population health. It will also be of practical value to general practitioners primary health care nurses and managers and public health staff.

The Brain Code Mechanisms of Information Transfer and the Role of the Corpus Callosum

The Brain Code Mechanisms of Information Transfer and the Role of the Corpus Callosum

Originally published in 1986 this stimulating and unorthodox book integrates the major findings of hemispheric research with the larger questions of how the brain stores and transmits information – the ‘brain code’. Norman Cook emphasizes how the two cerebral hemispheres communicate information over the corpus callosum the largest single nerve tract of the human brain. Excitatory mechanisms are involved in the duplication of information between the hemispheres; in contrast inhibitory mechanisms are implicated in the production of hemispheric asymmetries and crucially in high-level cognitive phenomena such as the right hemisphere’s role in providing the ‘context’ within which left hemispheric verbal information is placed. These callosal mechanisms of information transfer are not only fundamental to the brain code; they are the simplest and most easily demonstrated ways in which the neocortex ‘talks to itself’. The Brain Code demonstrates how popular topics within psychology at the time such as laterality hemisphere differences and the psychology of left and right are central to further progress in understanding the human brain. This book provides stimulating reading for students of psychology artificial intelligence and neurophysiology as well as anyone interested in the broader question of how the brain works. | The Brain Code Mechanisms of Information Transfer and the Role of the Corpus Callosum

Venus in the Dark Blackness and Beauty in Popular Culture

Venus in the Dark Blackness and Beauty in Popular Culture

In this second edition of the remarkable and now classic cultural history of black women’s beauty Venus in the Dark Janell Hobson explores the enduring figure of the Hottentot Venus and the history of critical and artistic responses to her by black women in contemporary photography film literature music and dance. In 1810 Sara Baartman was taken from South Africa to Europe where she was put on display at circuses salons museums and universities as the Hottentot Venus. The subsequent legacy of representations of black women’s sexuality—from Josephine Baker to Serena Williams to hip-hop and dancehall videos—refer back to her iconic image. Via a new preface Hobson argues for the continuing influence of Baartman’s legacy as her image still reverberates through the contemporary marketization of black women’s bodies from popular music and pornography to advertising. A brand new chapter explores how historical echoes from previous eras map onto highly visible bodies in the twenty-first century. It analyzes fetishistic spectacles of the black booty with particular emphasis on the role of Beyoncé Knowles in the popularization of the bootylicious body and the counter-aesthetic the singer has gone on to advance for black women’s bodies and beauty politics. By studying the imagery of the Hottentot Venus from the nineteenth century to now readers are invited to confront the racial and sexual objectification and embodied resistance that make up a significant part of black women’s experience. | Venus in the Dark Blackness and Beauty in Popular Culture

This book explores the invisibility and invalidation of bisexuality from the past to the present and is unique in extending the discussion to focus on contemporary and emerging identities.

Hayfield then evidences clear examples of the invisibility and invalidation of bisexuality pansexuality and asexuality within education employment mainstream mass media and the wider culture. Throughout the book there is consideration of the impact that this invisibility and invalidation has on people’s sense of identity and on their health and wellbeing.

Theory and Practice in Heritage and Sustainability Between past and future

Theory and Practice in Heritage and Sustainability Between past and future

This book explores cultural sustainability and its relationships to heritage from a wide interdisciplinary perspective. By examining the interactions between people and communities in the places where they live it exemplifies the diverse ways in which a people-centred heritage builds identities and supports individual and collective memories. It encourages a view of heritage as a process that contributes through cultural sustainability to human well-being and socially- and culturally-sensitive policy. With theoretically-informed case studies from leading researchers the book addresses both concepts and practice in a range of places and contexts including landscape townscape museums industrial sites every day heritage ‘ordinary’ places and the local scene and even UNESCO-designated sites. The contributors most of whom like the editors were members of the COST Action ‘Investigating Cultural Sustainability’ demonstrate in a cohesive way how the cultural values that people attach to place are enmeshed with issues of memory identity and aspiration and how they therefore stand at the centre of sustainability discourse and practice. The cases are drawn from many parts of Europe but notably from the Baltic and central and south-eastern Europe regions with distinctive recent histories and cultural approaches and heritage discourses that offer less well-known but transferable insights. They all illustrate the contribution that dealing with the inheritance of the past can make to a full cultural engagement with sustainable development. The book provides an introductory framework to guide readers and a concluding section that draws on the case studies to emphasise their transferability and specificity and to outline the potential contribution of the examples to future research practice and policy in cultural sustainability. This is a unique offering for postgraduate students researchers and professionals interested in heritage management governance and community participation and cultural sustainability. | Theory and Practice in Heritage and Sustainability Between past and future

Secessionism and Terrorism Bombs Blood and Independence in Europe and Eurasia

Secessionism and Terrorism Bombs Blood and Independence in Europe and Eurasia

This book examines secessionist terrorism in a comparative context across Europe and Eurasia. The volume seeks to uncover comparative linkages between terrorism and secessionism; specifically examining terrorist organizations that also have a political goal of independence. It examines a wide range of case studies including the IRA in Northern Ireland ETA in the Basque Country FLNC in Corsica and ARD in Brittany KLA in Kosovo PKK and TAK in Turkish Kurdistan and IK in Chechnya. In doing so the book shows the linkages in terrorist tactics and demands as well as when and how ceasefires come into place. Ultimately none of the terrorist organizations studied here has obtained their maximalist goal of gaining independence but each has caused significant bloodshed and has contributed to the debate on the future of governance in Europe and Eurasia. The major strength of this format is to glean wider lessons on ethno-nationalism as well as the causes and outcomes of terrorist actions. Each case study also updates the literature on the individual cases to provide the most recent account of events in these countries. This book will be of much interest to students of terrorism and political violence ethnic conflict nationalism European politics and International Relations in general. | Secessionism and Terrorism Bombs Blood and Independence in Europe and Eurasia

Gender Generations and Communism in Central and Eastern Europe and Beyond

Gender Generations and Communism in Central and Eastern Europe and Beyond

Communism in twentieth-century Europe is predominantly narrated as a totalitarian movement and/or regime. This book aims to go beyond this narrative and provide an alternative framework to describe the communist past. This reframing is possible thanks to the concepts of generation and gender which are used in the book as analytical categories in an intersectional overlap. The publication covers twentieth-century Poland Czechoslovakia/Czech Republic the Soviet Union/Russia former Yugoslavia Turkish communities in West Germany Italy and Cuba (as a comparative point of reference). It provides a theoretical frame and overview chapters on several important gender and generation narratives about communism anticommunism and postcommunism. Its starting point is the belief that although methodological reflection on communism as well as on generations and gender is conducted extensively in contemporary research the overlapping of these three terms is still rare. The main focus in the first part is on methodological issues. The second part features studies which depict the possibility of generational-gender interpretations of history. The third part is informed by biographical perspectives. The last part shows how the problem of generations and gender is staged via the medium of literature and how it can be narrated. | Gender Generations and Communism in Central and Eastern Europe and Beyond

Photography and the Law Rights and Restrictions

Photography and the Law Rights and Restrictions

Photographers and publishers of photographs enjoy a wide range of legal rights including freedom of expression and of publication. They have a right to create and publish photographs. They may invoke their intellectual moral and property rights to protect and enforce their rights in their created and/or published works. These rights are not absolute. This book analyses the various legal restrictions and prohibitions which may affect these rights. Photography and the Law investigates the legal limitations faced by professional and amateur photographers and photograph publishers under Irish UK and EU Law. Through an in-depth discussion of the personal rights of the public including the right not to be harassed the book gives a clear analysis of the current legal standpoint on the relationship between privacy and freedom of expression. Additionally the book looks at the reconciliation of photographers’ rights with the state’s interest in public security and defence alongside the enforcement of ethical and moral codes. Comparative legal standing in the European Union is used as a springboard to further analyse Irish and UK statutes and case law including recent reforms and current proposals for future change. The book ends with pertinent suggestions of the necessary reforms and enactments required to rebalance the relationship between the personal rights of individuals the state’s duties and the protection of photographers’ and photograph publishers’ rights. By clearly explaining the theoretical and conceptual reasoning behind the current law alongside proposed reforms the book will be a useful tool for any student or academic interested in photography law privacy and media law alongside professional and amateur photographers and photograph publishers. | Photography and the Law Rights and Restrictions
