Restored at the Root: Get to the Source of Social, Emotional, and Spiritual Struggle

'This important book gives a voice to those who implement the theories and practices of probation work, and in so doing provides a glimmer of hope for those who have conceded the defeat of humanitarian values to right and left wing punitivists. Not only does it challenge current political assumptions about how organisations and the people who work within them can be bent to political will, but it confirms continuing belief amongst practitioners - who have accepted the importance of risk, accountability and evidence - in the humanistic aspect of their work and its dependence on relationships rooted in empathy and genuine concern for individuals.'  Maurice Vanstone, Swansea University, UK  'This book is recommended reading for practitioners, academics and trainees and will also be extremely valuable for policy makers as they determine the future direction of probation and seek to develop the service in a way that is inclusive of staff.'  EuroVista  'This is a valuable contribution to both the literature on probation practice and culture, and the broader body of work which has sought to address gaps between theoretical accounts of penal transformation (and official rhetoric) and accounts of ’actual’ practice on the ground.'  Howard Journal of Criminal Justice  'Overall, in this excellent text John Deering largely achieves his aim of providing a more nuanced understanding of the impact of the changes upon probation practice than can be drawn from official accounts... it is hard to disagree with Maurice Vanstone’s eulogy on the cover of this text that: ’This important book gives a voice to those who implement the theories and practices of probation work, and in doing provides a glimmer of hope for those who have conceded the defeat of humanitarian values to right and left wing punitivists.’  Probation Journal

Probation Practice and the New Penology

'Bahun and Radunović have put together an exciting and stimulating volume, which tackles the complex question of how language and our humanity intersect from an extraordinary range of positions. The essays are provocative and exploratory and they range from discussions of constitution-making and cosmopolitanism to analyses of Helen Keller and Cain and Abel. An important contribution to current debates.’ - Ken Hirschkop, University of Waterloo, Canada
‘By examining the intricate connections between language and ideology and by investigating the place of language as ideology, Language, Ideology, and the Human artfully brings together a wide-ranging field of disciplines: from philosophy to philology, linguistics, political science, psychoanalysis and cultural studies. The invigorating analyses and the refreshing perspectives that it offers are bound to make it an indispensable text.’ - Marinos Pourgouris, University of Cyprus, Cyprus
‘This is a well-rounded collection that will appeal to both Humanities and Social Sciences. It does not merely take part in the debate on language and ideology but goes some way in setting the agenda as well.’ - Angie Voela, University of East London, UK

’This book provides important insights in how NGOs provide education to child survivors and those at risk of human trafficking in Thailand. As the Thai government strives to provide education for all, including ethnic minorities without citizenship and the large number of migrant children in Southeast Asia, studies like this give much needed perspective.’ Simon Baker, Mahidol University, Thailand

'This book is a sobering reminder that even today our vision of a fair, just and gender equal society remains frustratingly elusive. The deafening silence of the victims serves as a clarion call for action.  Their strength and courage is inspirational.' Lorena Aguilar, The International Union for Conservation of Nature, Costa Rica   'Combining the practiced eye of a clinical psychologist with the heart of a freedom fighter in a ground-breaking analysis of the international justice system Sara Sharratt asks the question of gender. Building upon the literature that unequivocally demonstrates that without this question there can be no justice, she reveals that women are still approached as a special case and that even justice is gendered.'  Ellyn Kaschak, San Jose State University, USA  'Sara Sharratt reminds us of the difference between law and justice. Her work is a major milestone to remind international criminal lawyers that success cannot be measured solely by the numbers of convictions, but must also be measured by the manner in which these institutions treat sexual violence victims and fulfill women's expectations of justice.' Binaifer Nowrojee, Open Society Initiative for Eastern Africa, Kenya  'The strength of the book lies in its reportage of the comments, opinions and ideas expressed by the respondents to the questionnaires and the interviewees. This material offers an important insight into the attitudes and beliefs of the various ’actors’ and the extracts from the interviews demonstrate that much remains to be done if we are to improve the ’policies and procedures for survivors, court members, and those engaged in the quest for justice for [crimes of sexual violence]’... Sharratt’s book, whilst focussed on the ICTY and the WCC, is an important addition to our understanding of the ongoing difficulties faced by women in their search for accountability.'

'The Expressionist Turn is a ground-breaking anthology and the first of its kind to consider the concept of an "expressionist" art history. Providing both new, primary translations and trenchant, secondary interpretive texts, this book will change the way we approach the elusive term "Expressionism" as a stylistic designation and a historiographic category.' Jay A. Clarke, Manton Curator of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs, The Clark 
'... provoking argument about the relation of art to history is a worthy endeavour, so the editors and authors of The Expressionist Turn have already put us in their debt.' Journal of Art Historiography 
'This book is a treasure for all who are interested in the complexities and contradictions of the emergence of German Modernism's interpretive mode. Given the contemporary relevance of the need for a drastic change in art historical perception and practice, it is high time for an Expressionist revival, or at least arrival, in the Anglophone world. The Expressionist Turn in Art History does much to pave the way.' Sehepunkte
'The introduction by Kimberly Smith is both erudite and comprehensive. In addition to outlining the tricky nomenclature of an "expressionist" art history and the goals of the project, she provides succinct summaries of the essays and translations, as well as a lucid discussion of the relationship between "Expressionist art and art history".'

’Never has the relationship between power and authority been so complex. With the idealism of fin-de-siècle Montmartre as a touchstone, Julian Brigstocke offers an inspiring account of new forms of experiential authority in the modern city. This book radically reassesses the political relationship between art and life in ways that are urgent, immediate and contemporary.’  Helen Nicholson, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK   ’Julian Brigstocke’s The Life of the City is a path-breaking work that brings to our attention the important counter-culture of Montmartre’s fin-de-siècle cabaret scene. In the years after the Commune this pre-eminent contested space of anarchist politics and cultural innovation brought to life a new expression of authority that emphasised the importance of embodiment, vitality and affect against established bourgeois norms. Weaving together important historical research with the latest geographical thinking around non-representational approaches and the importance of affect, Brigstocke’s book is an important event in cultural understanding. Through this study we learn a great deal about the character of urban modernity and the challenges to forms of modern capitalist spectacle that have been there from the outset. This book will prove essential reading for all those interested in the city.’ Kevin Hetherington, The Open University, UK  'Brigstocke provocatively analyses the contradictory dynamics of the Montmartre avant-garde community and shows how humor was used to contest traditional and scientific forms of authority and work against prevailing modes of subjectivation.' H-France  'Using humour, laughter, and violence as his focus, Brigstocke provides an insightful and compelling account of how the transformation that Paris experienced during the second half of the nineteenth century was seen and perceived from the heights of Montmartre. ...'

'This timely volume presents a set of compelling ethnographic accounts that refocus our attention on processes of place-making in studies of movement.  Tracing the means by which people make the places where they have settled matter to them, Local Lives underlines the importance of fully recognizing a fundamental dimension of migration that is too often elided in contemporary transnational studies.' Vered Amit, Concordia University, USA  'Opening up new perspectives on the topic of migration, one of today's most challenging social issues, what is particularly important is the comparative view this book contains through concrete studies of a wide variety of migrant experiences. Dealing with attachment to place, but reflecting on what it means to break up and move, it is a book that has important interdisciplinary implications.' Helge RÃ¸nning, University of Oslo, Norway  ’This edited volume [...] constitutes a timely and precious contribution to the emerging field of mobility studies.’ Anthropological Forum

"This is among the best collections available on the history of anatomy. It is organized in ways that promote thematic and theoretical readings while also allowing historical and geographical comparisons to be made. It is worth a seri-ous, cover-to-cover read by historians of medicine, natural history, and anatomy who are interested in the state of their field." - Carin Berkowitz, Chemical Heritage Foundation, Bulletin of the History of Medicine
"One of the strongest aspects of this book is its ability to furnish the reader with some fabulously random pieces of knowledge." - Heidi Nicholl, independent scholar

'The first ever comprehensive treatment of EU counter-terrorism policy by a single author - and one that is unlikely to be surpassed very soon. Oldrich Bures provides a sobering, informed and nuanced account of the EU's attempts to protect its citizens from terrorist attacks and why leaders rhetoric and strategy documents have often not been matched by appropriate action. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in counter-terrorism or the EU as a growing provider of internal security.' Christoph O. Meyer, King's College London, UK  '...a preponderance of convincing evidence to support a provocative argument that the EU has not lived up to its commitment to protect its citizens. This well-researched and timely book makes an extremely important empirical and theoretical contribution to counter-terrorism policy as well as the politics of EU security cooperation.' Lawrence P. Rubin, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA and Associate Editor, Terrorism and Political Violence  'Everything you need to know and more about the European Union’s role in counter-terrorism policy.  Any serious scholar, whether student or expert, needs to become familiar with this thought-provoking work. Thanks to the rigour of the analysis, this work should also be read by practitioners in Brussels and the national capitals of the EU member states.' Christian Kaunert, University of Salford and Co-editor of Journal of Contemporary European Research, UK  ...provides a comprehensive vision of EU counter-terrorism policy and thoroughly details its specificities.  His honest observations on the genuine added-value of the key EU counter-terrorism instruments and actors should contribute to strengthen trust between national judiciaries.  Hence the relevance of this book for the EU's criminal justice.

Die Briefe des Gymnasiasten und Studenten Sigmund Freud an seinen Jugendfreund
Eduard Silberstein sind das einzige &uuml;berlieferte umfangreiche Selbstzeugnis
aus den pr&auml;genden fr&uuml;hen Bildungsjahren des Begr&uuml;nders der Psychoanalyse.
Sie sind in ihrem Sprachzauber eine literarische Kostbarkeit. Zugleich
dokumentieren sie eine typische j&uuml;dische Wiener Jugend im 19. Jahrhundert.
Von Anfang an tragen diese Dokumente unverkennbar die Handschrift des gro&szlig;en
intellektuellen Neuerers. Freuds Originalit&auml;t tritt besonders sch&ouml;n hervor,
wenn er aus dem Anschauen der ihn umgebenden Menschen - in zahllosen meisterlichen
Miniaturen festgehalten -, vor allem aber aus rigoroser Selbstbeobachtung
'Rezepte' f&uuml;r seine 'kleine psychologische Hausapotheke' gewinnt und dabei
jenes Wahrnehmungsinstrument sch&auml;rft, welches sp&auml;ter die systematische
Entdeckung des Unbewu&szlig;ten erm&ouml;glicht und damit eine Revolution im Menschenbild
des 20. Jahrhunderts bewirkt hat.
