Exploring the Relationships between Parents, Practitioners and Teachers

An Empirical Approach to Preparing Children for Starting School

"Anyone seeking an up-to-date, comprehensive, and analytic overview of contemporary women's rights policies need look no further than this fifth edition of Women's Rights in the USA. McBride's and Parry's attention to the historic evolution of women's rights policies and the differential impact of policy on various subgroups of women are particular strengths."
-- Susan J. Carroll, Rutgers University
"Produced from the winning partnership between Janine Parry and Dorothy McBride, the fifth edition of Women’s Rights in the USA provides students, teachers, and scholars with a unique and empirically-rich source. Masterfully assessing the full range of areas where governments promote women’s rights and gender equality, the book maps out the messy start to finish process of policy development, including key information on practice and outcomes. This edition takes intersectionality and nuanced approaches to gender seriously by bringing-in new analyses of women in poverty, gay marriage, lesbian rights, and racial politics. The enhanced visual materials make it even more student and teacher friendly making the book’s intersectional, historical, cross-sectoral, multi-level and comparative perspectives highly useful and effective for undergraduate classrooms."
-- Amy G. Mazur, Washington State University
"Women's Rights in the USA continues to be the gold standard for any class involving women's policy. The mix of policy history and development with up-to-date topics, like emergency contraception, eldercare, and pay equity, gives the ideal background to undergraduates or graduate students alike."
-- Tracy Osborn, University of Iowa

'Clarke's introduction consists of a survey of Japanese new religious movements abroad and a very useful discussion of the terminology. Clarke's brief history of Aum Shinrikyo is one of the best written analyses of this controversial sect. Clarke's "Bibliography of Japanese New Religious Movements" should be purchased by every library with a serious Japan studies collection. It will serve as a useful guide to scholars in the field as well as students seeking an overview of Japan's new religious movements.' - Daniel A. Metraux, Japanese Journal of Religious Studies

"Now, were I a very young Ramanujan-want-to-be growing up in some corner of the world, what book—if the conditions of such a scenario limited my poor library to just one book—would be a wonderful treasure trove of problems for me on which to hone my skills? In essence, this is more or less the idea and purpose of Hathout’s book if I understand him correctly. He presents the reader with statements of and solutions to 66 Gauss problems selected from discrete mathematics, combinatorics, elementary analysis, and geometry."—Andrew James Simoson, Mathematical Reviews, October 2013
" … a vital addition to any mathematician's reference and teaching idea collection, highly recommended."—Midwest Book Review 
"The book is perhaps best enjoyed in small doses; while the mathematics is insightful and usually quite interesting, there is a lot to process. The payoff is well-worth the effort, even if that effort is expended over time; everyone will likely come away with some new "aha!" insights.—Mark Bollman, MAA Reviews

Maria Grasso’s masterful comparative analysis provides a fresh look on the study of political participation and, more broadly, on the functioning of democracy. Her book fits squarely with a long-standing research tradition in sociology and political science, namely the study of generations and political engagement. She shows that both conventional and unconventional forms of participation have declined, and will continue to fall in the future with new, less politicized generations replacing older, more civic ones. - Marco Giugni, Professor and Director of the Institute of Citizenship Studies, University of Geneva, Switzerland
A truly wonderful and deeply original book which demonstrates, as never before, the profound influence of cohort effects and socialisation on political participation and the continuing significance of domestic political factors. Theoretically innovative, methodologically sophisticated and thoroughly convincing, Maria Grasso puts down a very significant marker in a debate whose importance can scarcely be exaggerated. - Colin Hay, Professor of Political Science, Sciences Po, Paris, France
In this important book, Maria Grasso carefully employs a rich body of data to uncover the continued importance of political generation and national context: while our formative experiences do not determine our future political behaviour, they do have a long-lasting influence throughout our lives - with long term implications for our politics. - Charles Pattie, Professor of Geography, University of Sheffield, UK
This is one of the best sustained analyses of political generations and democratic participation to date. Grasso’s analysis is both theoretically nuanced and rigorously empirical. Her careful methodology allows her to disentangle the effects of generation, age, and period in ten Western European democracies. Analyzing five political generations, Grasso convincingly shows the lasting effects of formative experiences and the ongoing centrality of the 1960s "protest generation" to new social movements. The book has important implications for democratic engagement: as younger generations replace Baby Boomers, Western European democracies are likely to see declining participation in social movements and in conventional politics. - Nancy Whittier, Professor of Sociology, Smith College, USA

David Pozen's carefully researched and brilliantly argued book on the Constitution and the war on drugs is both illuminating and disturbing. No surprise there. Pozen is our country's most inventive and interesting young constitutional scholar.

"In view of the good choice of highly topical subject matter, the book will be of interest to a wide readership, not only among pure scientists. It will be useful to technicians, medical scientists and pharmaceutical chemists as a source of detailed information on advanced flow processes. ... [The chapters] are written in such a way that the reader can quickly absorb the essential information. The articles are of a high scientific standard and include interesting examples from many different areas of rheology." —Prof. Dr. Heinz Rehage, Institute of Physical Chemistry, Technische Universität Dortmund, Germany 
"[The author’s] long experience shows in the quality of the presentation and the writing. The presentation is at the advanced undergraduate/beginning graduate level, and is both crisp and precise, the author striking a good balance between being introductory and including ... important steps in the derivation. ... Many institutions are now developing courses on microfluidics, small scale fluid mechanics, and complex fluids. This book fills a niche in that market and is likely to be the definitive text in the subject, at this level, for some time to come." —G.M. Homsy, University of British Columbia, Canada
"… gathers together several topics in an extended manner that differs with general books I know. … quite diverse and covers major areas, including recent developments …"—Misbah Chaouqi, CNRS and University J. Fourier, Grenoble

"This must-read book for all, in and out of the academy, opens with the contributors' candid responses about the status of cross-race relations among women and the challenges associated with creating alliances across race. Five women of color and four white women pull readers in as they engage in conversations, inviting readers to listen to and continue the discussions across campuses. These conversations are long overdue; it is time for dialogue. Summing up: Essential." - A. A. Hodge, Buffalo State College in CHOICE
"This book is a critical addition to the bookshelf of anyone interested in the dynamics of interracial feminist alliances or the role those alliances play in creating more a more just academy." - On Campus with Women
"The brave contributors to this project expose what separates women of Color and White women in the academy. They take this discussion a step further, doing the heavy lifting of communicating honestly and directly with the goals of, at least, mutual understanding. Women of Color and White women are provided an opportunity and may, following the lead provided here, move from unlikely to probable allies working together to make the system inclusive." -From the foreword by Ronald B. Scott, Associate Professor of Communication and Associate Vice President for Institutional Diversity, Miami University
"In Unlikely Allies in the Academy, Dace and her colleagues present raw and disconcerting realities that many of us will recognize as our truth in managing relationships between women of color and white women. The authors have placed themselves in the vulnerable position of being judged for their own progress in becoming allies, making this volume full of significant lessons for us all."- Anna Ortiz, Professor of Educational Leadership, California State University, Long Beach
