Diversity and Contestations over Nationalism in Europe and Canada

Breanna Stewart

"By organizing his material around the compelling but simple theme of bureaucracy, Tony Waters brings a distinctive and potent perspective to the study of schooling. Schooling, Childhood, and Bureaucracy is a lively and insightful introduction to the sociology of education." - David Bills, professor of Sociology of Education, College of Education, The University of Iowa

"In this fascinating work, Waters stretches readers beyond comfortable limits to see both the bureaucratization of schools and the commodification of our children who attend them. The tensions that grind against humanistic teachers who resist making products of their students are thoroughly explored with fresh insights. Waters challenges us to ask what the future holds for schooling and education: has the information society outgrown traditional bureaucracy in education, or will the paradoxes of the organic humanistic approaches we dream of for our schools and the cold rationalism of the bureaucratic order simply continue to intensify?" - William Rich, associate professor of Education, School of Education, California State University, Chico

"Often those of us involved in education from the pre-school through teacher education-level of public education have a hard time seeing the big picture of why we end up doing what we do. With this book, the sociologist Tony Waters helps us understand the place of public education in American society and throughout the world. In it, he highlights the internal tensions within the bureaucracy of education as the system tries to mold emotional children into productive adults in twelve years using an unemotional system to do it. Schooling, Childhood, and Bureaucracy: Bureaucratizing the Child is a valuable addition to those who are trying to understand the place of public education in today's world and tensions inherent in this bureaucratic system." - John Benson, professor, School of Teaching and Learning, Minnesota State University Moorhead

"An interesting book that explains why schools are the way they are today . . . Recommended" - Choice

Levine’s 10th edition of Urban Politics remains a handbook for the practitioner concerned with using public policy to support sustainable cities with a "development triangle" of environmental, economic, and social goals.　 It supports a progressive urban agenda with practical examples and extensive research. In the current age, Levine’s unifying theme of power as "the ability to get things done" brings idealistic goals from blue skies down to the streets of America’s cities.　 
Minchin Lewis, Syracuse University, USA

Thoroughly revised and rewritten, the new edition of Urban Politics provides a comprehensive view of urban development, contemporary urban politics, and urban issues. Its ample illustrations and boxed case material provide course instructors with substantial material for classroom discussion and student analysis.

"Advances in neuroscience will raise increasing problems in relation to national security in the post COVID-19 world. This book demonstrates just how complex these problems will be and stresses the collective role that scientists could play in dealing with them. I hope that his ethical analysis of neuroscience and national security will be widely read, particularly by neuroscientists."Malcolm Dando, University of Bradford, U.K.

“The book offers an extensive and well-referenced account of how metrics have begun to infiltrate social and cultural life. It is a text that will be widely used and discussed and its ideas displayed on whiteboards in classrooms across the world … Beer’s book expands the concept of measurement across a set of literatures in cultural studies, sociology and philosophy. Indeed, what very quickly stands out about this book is the breadth of literature it covers in these areas.” (Phoebe V. Moore, Information, Communication & Society, February, 2018)“David Beer … outlines the rise of the metric and the role of metrics in shaping everyday life. … the book makes important reading for anyone concerned with how our daily experiences of technologies, organisations, and social institutions, are shaped, unequally, by the power of metrics.” (Dave O'Brien, New Books network, newbooksnetwork.com, August, 2017)
