Humanities & Social SciencesMay 2024Home front heroism
Civilians and conflict in Second World War London
by Ellena Matthews
Home front heroism investigates how civilians were recognised and celebrated as heroic during the Second World War. Through a focus on London, this book explores how heroism was manufactured as civilians adopted roles in production, protection and defence, through the use of uniforms and medals, and through the way that civilians were injured and killed. This book makes a novel contribution to the study of heroism by exploring the spatial, material, corporeal and ritualistic dimensions of heroic representations. By tracing the different ways that Home Front heroism was cultivated on a national, local and personal level, this study promotes new ways of thinking about the meaning and value of heroism during periods of conflict. It will appeal to anyone interested in the social and cultural history of Second World War as well as the sociology and psychology of heroism.

Children's & YAFootball: the game that changed the world
by Laurent Nicolet and Lev Virovets
Is it true that the first football players in Russia entertained the public between bicycle races? Why did bachelors and married men have to play against each other? Is it possible to cheat, to deceive the referee and win the world championship? What teams did the Little Mozart, Black Spider and Black Panther play for? Most people never ask such questions, while the authors of this book have not only asked them, but also found the answers. This is an exciting history of football from the very beginning till present day, for both children and adults, either long-standing fans or those trying to understand what inspires their friends and family.

Humanities & Social SciencesJune 2024At home with the poor
Consumer behaviour and material culture in England, c. 1650-1850
by Joseph Harley
This book opens the doors to the homes of the forgotten poor and traces the goods they owned before, during and after the industrial revolution (c. 1650-1850). Using a vast and diverse range of sources, it gets to the very heart of what it meant to be 'poor' by examining the homes of the impoverished and mapping how numerous household goods became more widespread. As the book argues, poverty did not necessarily equate to owning very little and living in squalor. In fact, its novel findings show that most of the poor strove to improve their domestic spheres and that their demand for goods was so great that it was a driving force of the industrial revolution.

Children's & YATo the Mountains!
The history of mountaineering
by Lada Bakal
This is a unique story of how people changed their view of mountains and mountain climbing. First they saw mountains as an enemy to subjugate but with time the very process of ascent acquired a special meaning for the climbers. The subdued illustrations remind us of vintage postcards from the Alps.

Children's & YAPaleontologists and their petsAND THEIR PETS
by Anton Nelikhov
Since ancient times, people found fossilized bones and shells of strange creatures. For thousands of years they did not understand who these remnants belonged to, and tried to explain their findings somehow: these bones belonged to giants and monsters, or to antediluvian fauna. Gradually, scientists began to understand that such remains belonged to animals, and finally they declared: long before the appearance of people, these bizarre animals, fishes and lizards existed on Earth, and those fossils were their remains.

Business, Economics & LawSeptember 2020Tourism and Gender-based Violence
Challenging Inequalities
by Paola Vizcaino-Suárez, Heather Jeffrey, Claudia Eger
Gender-based violence (GBV) in travel and tourism is embedded within wider social structures of gender inequalities and discrimination. Even though it is pertinent to study GBV in all its forms, this book focuses on the multiple and interconnected manifestations of violence that women/girls encounter in tourism consumption and production (physical, sexual, emotional or socio-economic), while seeking to open the debate on violence against sexual minorities (LGBT) and discussing men/boys as victims and perpetrators of GBV. By engaging in a critical exploration of the theoretical landscape of GBV and case studies on GBV and sexual harassment, the book adopts a multidisciplinary perspective drawing on feminist, intersectional and post-colonial frameworks, bringing together contributions from academics and practitioners across the globe.

MedicineMay 2023Evidence Based Equine Nutrition
A Practical Approach For Professionals
by Teresa Hollands, Lizzie Drury
This book uniquely provides both the scientific basis of equine nutrition and the translation of that science into practical, day-to-day feeding advice. It summarises the latest research to provide readers with the evidence base needed to both confidently advise those who want to understand the science behind equine nutrition, and apply that evidence into practical advice for anyone who just wants to know how to feed horses. Both veterinary and animal science courses struggle to provide adequate nutrition training within their syllabuses. Much of the general information available is poorly explained and not evidence based. This book fills that gap, with the author team relaying over 50 cumulative years' experience teaching equine nutrition to both practising clinicians and students. Find answers to the most common queries and challenges encountered during nutritional consultations across 17 informative chapters, using typical case-based examples as experienced by the authors. Fully supported throughout with visual aids and photographic illustrations, they show how to easily increase compliance and understanding. Key topics covered include: How to take a diet history, including which forage and concentrates are most appropriate, and how to interpret the information on feed labels; How to take the horse's history, including workload, body weight and body fat scoring; Supporting achievable and sustainable fat loss in overweight horses; Appropriate rations across a range of performance disciplines and for breeding horses; Appropriate feeds and supplements for competition, including how to recognise potential hazards, signs of quality and issues of feed safety; How to use ration programmes, including a range of frequently asked questions for horses with specific nutritional requirements from allergies to obesity. A recommended resource to support the teaching of veterinary nutrition, this book should also be found on the bookshelf of all veterinarians, animal scientists, trainers, nutritionists, and nutritional advisors. This book includes forewords by Carl Lester, Honorary Fellow of the British Horse Society and recipient of an MBE for his services to Equestrianism, and Tim Mair, former President of the British Equine Veterinary Association.

Eine philosophische Topik
by Wilhelm Schmidt-Biggemann
"Dies ist ein Buch für die, die sich auf Erfahrung einlassen wollen und einzulassen wissen. Es müssen nicht freie Geister sein, aber neugierige. Wilhelm Schmidt-Biggemann gibt uns mit diesem Buch einen philosophischen Erfahrungsbericht. Das Ergebnis - wie bei Erfahrungen, bei Reisen üblich -: eine Topographie von Erinnerungen, die insgesamt ein undeutliches Ganzes ergeben. Weil Topik Philosophie in statu viatoris ist, ist Reisebeschreibung die angemessene philosophische Gattung. Man ist in jedem Topos wie zu Hause, aber doch immer nur vorübergehend. Philosophische Reisebeschreibungen erweitern den Horizont und damit die Erfahrung. Das gilt für räumliche und für zeitliche Erfahrungen: Die Nähe ist immer relativ zu dem, wo man sich gerade aufhält; das gilt gerade auch für vergangene Erfahrungen und Erfahrungen der Vergangenheit, die wieder aufgesucht werden können. Der privilegierte Anspruch der Gegenwartserfahrungen ist nur Symptom für den Mangel an Erfahrungen. Zuordnung zum Hier und Jetzt ist Indiz für Bornierung. Erfahrung philosophischer Gegenden erschließt keine terra incognita, die Erfahrungen erinnern an Ein- und Aussichten. So wenig wie Gegenwartsbezug privilegiert ist, so wenig gibt es einen Sinn, das Neue, die Avantgarde, zu bevorzugen. Das, was man erfährt, ist eo ipso neu, und wenn es anderwärts schon erfahren wurde, dann deshalb, weil das Erfahrene eben ein Erfahrungstopos ist. Es ist der Reichtum der Enzyklopädie, der sich den Neugierigen eröffnet, ohne Systemstrenge, auch nicht mit der Notordnung des Alphabets. Es geht nicht um die Verfügbarkeit der enzyklopädischen Erfahrungen, es geht darum, Erfahrungsfähigkeit zu entwickeln, Erfahrungen möglich zu halten, ohne sie vorschnell einzuordnen."

February 2024Experimental Design and Analysis for Tree Improvement
by Emlyn Williams, Chris Harwood, Colin Matheson
This third edition of Experimental Design and Analysis for Tree Improvement provides a set of practical procedures to follow when planning, designing and analysing tree improvement trials. Using many fully worked examples, it outlines how to: design field, glasshouse and laboratory trials; efficiently collect and construct electronic data files; pre-process data, screening for data quality and outliers; analyse data from single and across-site trials; and interpret the results from statistical analyses. The authors address the many practical issues often faced in forest tree improvement trials and describe techniques that will efficiently give conclusive results. The techniques provided are applicable to the improvement of not only trees, but to crops in general. Building on the success of the second edition, this new edition has been fully revised to include the construction of p-rep and spatial designs using the commercially available software package for design generation (CycDesigN). For analysis of the examples, it provides online Genstat and SAS programs and a link to R programs.

Humanities & Social SciencesMay 2023Time and radical politics in France
From the Dreyfus Affair to the First World War
by Alexandra Paulin-Booth
This book investigates how people have thought about and experienced time, and how their ideas about time have shaped their political views and actions. Using French thinkers and activists of the radical left and right between the Dreyfus Affair and the First World War as a case study, it argues that time provides an important means of exploring how concepts such as nationalism, revolution and social change were understood at the turn of the century. Attending to different experiences of time - the speed at which it was perceived to move, the extent to which the future was near and graspable, the ways in which the past was seen to impinge on the present - opens up exciting new possibilities for analysing politics, ideologies and worldviews.
