This work provides a unique balance of a theoretical treatment and practical application for a broad readership interested in learning and using the latest information on solar radiation modeling. The scope is comprehensive, giving the reader everything from the subject fundamentals to the numerical recipes and technical references for further study. The treatment of uncertainty and the ‘modeler’s toolbox’ formed by the appendices are reason enough to have this book.This is a timely publication for understanding and applying solar resource characterization … a uniquely comprehensive treatment of the many aspects of modeling broadband and spectral solar irradiance at the Earth’s surface. The numerical recipes for modeling solar radiation under clear and cloudy sky conditions make this a very practical reference as well as a useful introduction to the subject. The balanced content is exemplified by the treatment of solar measurements and measurement uncertainty that are key factors in the development and validation of models.—Tom Stoffel, U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory

… a relevant and well-structured tour through the ever-increasing array of radiometric modeling techniques available to researchers. … an indispensable guide to practitioners and teachers by one of the leading authorities on solar resource modeling. Students will appreciate the worked examples. … It offers a thorough and long-overdue summary of solar radiometric modeling from one of the most experienced authorities in the field.—Michael Brooks, University of KwaZulu-Natal

The book gives a unique overview of the models used in the solar radiation community. … even the more complex models are shown in all details. … This is a good textbook for students who want to understand and reproduce the models used in solar radiation modeling nowadays.—Jan Remund, Meteotest

For people looking for better information to understand solar radiation science, measuring techniques, instrumentation uncertainties, and modeling of solar radiation under different orientation and sky conditions, I recommend this book.—Alemu Tadesse, SunEdison

'While Spyra has convincingly established links between the epistemology of the Pearl-Poet and the Neoplatonic nature of St Augustine's sign-theory, he has also drawn some compelling parallels between the design and thematic content of the Cotton Nero manuscript and the interests and concerns of theologians ... closer in time to the Pearl-Poet. In doing so, Spyra creates space for future investigations into whether the less-Augustinian epistemologies of fourteenth-century philosophers might contribute to the understanding of the Cotton Nero texts.'

'The author bravely looks through his own Christian lens, squints through several other theologically-minded view-finders and gets into conversation with what 'ordinary' people see in(to) films.' Art & Christianity  'Even for those who would not classify themselves as 'film buffs' this is an important book. It could well serve as a wake-up call for evangelicals who have failed to seriously engage with culture... We need to take film seriously as a medium for understading the religious landscape fo our times.'  Themelios  ’...

’(Dis)placing Empire challenges totalizing narratives of Britain's Empire - and succeeds admirably. What is revealed is not just Empire's different 'where' and 'when' but its different 'who'. Engaging essays highlight the interconnections between local places, global networks and lived experiences. Thoroughly researched and sensitively written, this work should command the attention of all those interested in understanding what Empire meant and how it worked.’  Charles W.J. Withers, University of Edinburgh, UK  ’...a most welcome addition to Ashgate Publishing’s Heritage, Culture and Identity series...should become recommended reading for relevant undergraduate and postgraduate courses.’ New Zealand Geographer

“Gerald Postema surveys developments in the twentieth century. &nbsp;... Every thinking lawyer should be informed and stimulated by these books, and as for the iurisperiti, any unthinking lawyers should acquire them in order to stimulate thought.” (Andrew Halpin, Singapore Journal of Legal Studies, September, 2017)“The volume is a magisterial achievement, and should serve as a valuable resource for specialists and non-specialists alike for years to come. … the chapters are helpfully written as mostly self-standing expositions of a manageable number of theorists and arguments; the result is that the chapters and subsections are useful essays in their own right, for both research and pedagogical purposes.” (Michael Sevel, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews, ndpr.nd.edu, April, 2015)“A book for sophisticated students of legal theory where one learns more and better what the best 20th century jurisprudential works contained and what they should have said or failed in saying. … Legal Philosophy in the Twentieth Century: The Common Law World is a brilliant book and, for the rest of us incapable of achieving anything like this … it is simply breathtaking.” (Richard Bronaugh, Canadian Journal of Law and Jurisprudence, Vol. 27 (2), July, 2014)

'Politics Most Unusual is a significant contribution to the substantial literature taking a broadly 'critical' perspective on the nature of post-9/11 politics. Its key strength is the engagement with a psychoanalytic approach to understanding the nature and significance of neglected aspects of religion and prejudice in contemporary political life and the ways in which 'spin', dissimulation and straightforward lying have ceased to be the mortal sins of politics that they once were. The authors deserve credit for this significant contribution to debate in this field.' John Williams, Contemporary Political Theory

’Overall this book makes an important contribution to the subject of the political economy of British defense spending in the decade after the Second World War... The author provides us with a thorough tour and critique of the existing literature and relevant historical sources.  He is scrupulous in dealing with different views, and he asks occasionally difficult questions, but ultimately he guides his reader to conclusions that derive from careful argumentation and balanced considerations.’ Business History Review

“Despite its obvious relevance, until recently psychology has had a relatively small footprint in the study of terrorism. This large volume by two well-established researchers, Jeff Victoroff (a psychiatrist) and Arie Kruglanski (a psychologist), may go far in changing that. The editors have assembled 28 readings on the psychology of terrorism that explore all things psychological, from motivation and intent, to rational aspects of terrorism, to strategies for countering terrorists. They strike a nice balance between classics and important recent contributions.” -Gary LaFree, Director, National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START), University of Maryland
"One of the most important contributions of this volume is its educational value. In fact, this volume could serve as the basis for a course on the psychology of terrorism, both in terms of content and structure (which could be used to organize a semester-long course). Perhaps the key strength of this volume is its central emphasis on the importance of the person/situation interaction. The volume marks a distinct advance for curricula and pedagogy in the psychology of terrorism, and may serve to establish it as more of a standard area of research and teaching for social psychologists". - Lemieux, Anthony F. (2009), Review of Psychology of Terrorism: Classic and Contemporary Insights. The Journal of Social Psychology, 149(5) 606-608

"Kinshuk takes the complex subjects of personalization and adaptive learning and makes them accessible to students of learning and educational technology. In so doing, he also introduces the reader to some of the dominant themes in the field over the last decade, from reusable learning objects to cognitive load theory to personal profiling. This book is a valuable starting point for any reader studying contemporary educational technology."
--Stephen Downes, Program Leader in Learning and Performance Support Systems at the National Research Council Canada
"The technologies of adaptivity and personalization have the potential to change learning environments and to provide students with individual supports fitting their unique characteristics. This book will help readers understand the general concepts, theoretical and practical applications, and future trends of adaptive and personalized learning environments."
