Lives in Architecture Peter Cook

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).

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

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

Museums Art and Inclusion in a Climate Emergency

Museums Art and Inclusion in a Climate Emergency considers the impact of the Anthropocene on history and memory approaches to objects and agency and the incommensurability of western and Indigenous ontologies. Drawing on Indigenous knowledge humanities and museological literature continental philosophy contemporary art and popular culture Baker acknowledges the autonomous agency of geological forms including soils minerals and fossil fuels. Demonstrating that this has implications for an expanded idea of an ‘inclusive’ museum and its relationship to entities beyond ‘life’ and living species the book argues that the ‘inclusion’ paradigm needs to include nonlife actors. Gesturing to a geontological ‘turn’ through developing notions of geo-inclusion the mineralhuman and approaches to object agency that connect with Aboriginal ‘heritage’ Baker exposes the ongoing destruction of Country by mining interests in Western Australia and elsewhere. By addressing the need for urgent change through the artifice of the museum the book identifies an expanded approach to inclusion beyond the limits imposed by the politics of identity. Museums Art and Inclusion in a Climate Emergency theorises the potential of an expanded idea of the museum and will be of interest to scholars and students engaged in the study of museums and heritage environmental humanities and geo-humanities ecological art history and contemporary art.

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

Social Equity and LGBTQ Rights Dismantling Discrimination and Expanding Civil Rights

Can a baker refuse to make a wedding cake for a gay couple? Despite the U. S. Supreme Court decision guaranteeing marriage equality in 2015 lesbian gay bisexual transgender and queer (LGBTQ) citizens in the United States continue to be discriminated against in fundamental areas that others take for granted as a legal right. Using social equity theory and intersectionality but written in an accessible style this book demonstrates some of the ways in which LGBTQ citizens have been marginalized for their identity and argues that the field of public administration has a unique responsibility to prioritize social equity. Categories utilized by the U. S. Census Bureau (male or female heterosexual or homosexual) for example must shift to a continuum to accurately capture demographic characteristics and citizen behavior. Evidenced-based outcomes and disparities between cisgender and heterosexual and LGBTQ populations are carefully delineated to provide a legal rationale for a compelling governmental interest and policy recommendations are provided – including overdue federal legislation to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. | Social Equity and LGBTQ Rights Dismantling Discrimination and Expanding Civil Rights

Max Weber and Islam

Max Weber and Islam is a major effort by Islamic-studies specialists to reexamine and appraise Max Weber's perspectives on Islam and its historical development. Eight specialists on Islam and two sociologists explore many dimensions of Weber's comments on Islam along with Weber's conceptual framework. The volume's introduction links the discussions to contemporary issues and debates. Wolfgang Schluchter reconstructs Weber's conceptual apparatus as it applies to Islam and its historical development. In subsequent chapters Islamic specialists consider such major topics as the developmental history of Islam Islamic fundamentalism Islamic reform Islamic law and capitalism secularization in Islam as well as the value of attempting to apply Weber's concept of sects to Islam. While some authors find flaws in Weber's factual knowledge of Islam they also find considerable merit in the kinds of questions Weber raised. Contributors to the volume include highly respected contemporary international scholars of Islam: Ira Lapidus Nehemia Levtzion Richard M. Eaton Peter Hardy Rudolph Peters Barbara Metcalf Francis Robinson Patricia Crone Michael Cook and S. N. Eisenstadt. Toby Huff's introduction not only knits the thematics of the separate essays together but adds its own stresses while engaging the contributors in dialogue and debate about fundamental issues. This acute collective analysis establishes a new benchmark for understanding Weber and Islam. This book also provides an up-to-date overview of the developmental history of many aspects of Islam. A major reappraisal of the entire span of Max Weber's sociological thought on Islam this book will appeal to a wide range of scholars and laymen interested in the Islamic world. It will be of particular interest to sociologists specializing in religion and Middle East area specialists.

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 People Of The Colca Valley A Population Study

While it now attracts many tourists the Colca Valley of Peru’s southern Andes was largely isolated from the outside world until the 1970s when a passable road was built linking the valley—and its colonial churches terraced hillsides and deep canyon—to the city of Arequipa and its airport eight hours away. Noble David Cook and his co-researcher Alexandra Parma Cook have been studying the Colca Valley since 1974 and this detailed ethnohistory reflects their decades-long engagement with the valley its history and its people. Drawing on unusually rich surviving documentary evidence they explore the cultural transformations experienced by the first three generations of Indians and Europeans in the region following the Spanish conquest of the Incas. | The People Of The Colca Valley A Population Study

Handbook of Wood Chemistry and Wood Composites

Wood has played a major role throughout human history. Strong and versatile the earliest humans used wood to make shelters cook food construct tools build boats and make weapons. Recently scientists politicians and economists have renewed their interest in wood because of its unique properties aesthetics availability abundance and perhaps most important of all its renewability. However wood will not reach its highest use potential until we fully describe it understand the mechanisms that control its performance properties and finally are able to manipulate those properties to give us the desired performance we seek. The Handbook of Wood Chemistry and Wood Composites analyzes the chemical composition and physical properties of wood cellulose and its response to natural processes of degradation. It describes safe and effective chemical modifications to strengthen wood against biological chemical and mechanical degradation without using toxic leachable or corrosive chemicals. Expert researchers provide insightful analyses of the types of chemical modifications applied to polymer cell walls in wood. They emphasize the mechanisms of reaction involved and resulting changes in performance properties including modifications that increase water repellency fire retardancy and resistance to ultraviolet light heat moisture mold and other biological organisms. The text also explores modifications that increase mechanical strength such as lumen fill monomer polymer penetration and plasticization. The Handbook of Wood Chemistry and Wood Composites concludes with the latest applications such as adhesives geotextiles and sorbents and future trends in the use of wood-based composites in terms of sustainable agriculture biodegradability and recycling and economics. Incorporating decades of teaching experience the editor of this handbook is well-attuned to educational demands as well as industry standards and research trends.

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

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

Bisexual and Pansexual Identities Exploring and Challenging Invisibility and Invalidation

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. Nikki Hayfield draws on research from psychology and the social sciences to offer a detailed and in-depth exploration of the invisibility and invalidation of bisexuality pansexuality and asexuality. The book discusses how early sexologists’ understood gender and sexuality within a binary model and how this provided the underpinnings of bisexual invisibility. The existing research on biphobia and bisexual marginalisation is synthesised to explore how bisexuality has often been invisible or invalidated. 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. It concludes with a discussion of how bisexuality pansexuality and asexuality have become somewhat more visible than in the past and the potential that visibility holds for recognition and representation. This is fascinating reading for students and academics interested in in bisexuality pansexuality and asexual spectrum identities and for those who have a personal interest in bisexuality pansexuality and asexuality. | Bisexual and Pansexual Identities Exploring and Challenging Invisibility and Invalidation

Revolution and Constitutionalism in Britain and the U.S. Burke and Madison and Their Contemporary Legacies

In Revolution and Constitutionalism in Britain and the U. S. : Burke and Madison and Their Contemporary Legacies David A. J. Richards offers an investigative comparison of two central figures in late eighteenth-century constitutionalism Edmund Burke and James Madison at a time when two great constitutional experiments were in play: the Constitution of the Glorious Revolution of 1688 and the U. S. Constitution of 1787. Richards assesses how much as liberal Lockean constitutionalists Burke and Madison shared and yet differed regarding violent revolution offering three pathbreaking and original contributions about Burke’s importance. First the book defends Burke as a central figure in the development and understanding of liberal constitutionalism; second it explores the psychology that led to his liberal voice including Burke’s own long-term loving relationship to another man; and third it shows how Burke’s understanding of the political psychology of the violence of “political religions” is an enduring contribution to understanding fascist threats to political liberalism from the eighteenth-century onwards including the contemporary constitutional crises in the U. S. and U. K. deriving from populist movements. Mixing thorough research with personal experiences this book will be an invaluable resource to scholars of political science and theory constitutional law history political psychology and LGBTQ+ issues. | Revolution and Constitutionalism in Britain and the U.
