'This book makes for fresh reading at an important juncture, as the economic recovery weakens, while some central banks begin to exit from unprecedented crisis-response policies. We live in unchartered territory, and it helps to gain a better historical perspective of central banking and the challenges these institutions face. This book should provide the basis for debate and the development of next-generation central bank policies.' Angel Gurría, Secretary-General of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development

The book Drama in Education: Exploring Key Research Concepts and Effective Strategies tries to connect the academic research based approach with the practical value of drama. Our education system was created for different times and so, towards the end of the second decade of the 21st century, we must explore how to transfer it for a new era – the age of constant, overpowering changes. To deal with them effectively, we need different personal and social skills which drama can develop. The book responds to the needs of the modern educational and cultural system offering academic evidence of drama impact and power as well as creative ideas for teachers to use in the classroom. It discusses the concept of fundamental pillars for education which are linked to different aspects of using drama in the classroom. The book is divided into six different chapters which are linked to introduced educational pillars. The international authors present different perspectives and experience in researching and applying drama. 
Prof. Dr hab. Alicja Gałązka, University of Silesia, Poland and Trinity College, London, UK

There is no shortage of books advocating drama as a powerful medium for learning, developing social skills and promoting equality and social justice. In less abundance are publications which support their claims for drama’s efficacy with empirical evidence. This is just such a book. The foreword focuses on the importance of considering context in research and this is acknowledged by each contributor as they set out their research projects. Their findings are all the more convincing because they include details of the practical sessions that provided the empirical evidence. Although each chapter describes a small-scale piece of practical research the number of issues covered is comprehensive ranging from how drama can be responsible for measurable improvements in literacy and reducing bullying to integrating immigrants and challenging the destructive rise of new nationalisms. This book will inform and encourage drama educators everywhere and serve as an inspiration to those wanting to regard their own practice as a potential subject for research.

Exploring Key Research Concepts and Effective Strategies

Drama in Education

"This is an immensely important volume in which a synthesis is achieved of decades of theoretical debate, now integrated in an original and innovative framework for a sociolinguistics of complexity. Offering a range of richly documented studies within a coherent framework, this book is compelling reading for anyone interested in the contemporary dynamics of language and society." — Professor Jan Blommaert, Director of Babylon, Department of Culture Studies, Tilburg School of Humanities and Digital Sciences, Tilburg University, Tilburg, the Netherlands

"This book shows that although Indonesia has arguably the world's most successful national language in one of the world's most linguistically diverse countries, the problem of contact languages has not been 'solved'. With ethnographically rich examples and introducing the concepts of 'scalar shifter' and 'contact register', the authors show beautifully how language remains a pivotal resource for the construction of difference and sameness in the midst of massive decentralization and globalization." — Joel Kuipers, Professor of Anthropology and International Affairs, George Washington University, USA

'I am very pleased to see a new edition of The Arab Lands under Ottoman Rule, 1516-1800, an essential text for courses on　the history of the Ottoman Empire and the early modern Middle East. In addition to introducing　readers to the　political structure and developments in　the region,　this clearly written and engaging text offers rich descriptions of the social and cultural lives　of a wide range of people in the Arab provinces of the Ottoman Empire.　​Hathaway's revisions include the　careful　incorporation of　recent scholarship and　restructuring of　several chapters;　her　expansion of　the　discussion about　​non-normative populations, which is now　two chapters, is especially welcome.'
Corinne Blake, Rowan University, USA.

"This unique and thoroughly researched resource provides a dynamic and in depth perspective on world music... It strikes a balance between wonderful illustrations and comprehensive, scholarly entries. Each regional volume includes a CD sampler of that region's music. This source will have wide appeal to both the novice and expert." -- Dartmouth Medal"A valuable tool..." -- American Reference Books Annual"An impressive scholarly accomplishment full of toughtful articles on a rich diversity of topics with bibliographies that are a treasure themselves." -- Against the Grain"This is a monumental work of impressive scope that in less competent hands could have fallen flat on its bibliographic face...This volume (and the series) would see much use in most public libraries and in academic libraries with even modest music and popular culture courses." -- Library Journal

This Book Will Make You An Artist

There aren’t that many books that I feel that I want to go back and re-read – but this is one of them. Or if time doesn’t allow, I will at least check through all my multiple underlinings and notes in the margins.
-- Emily Hutchinson, The Psychologist 
Al Bolea and Leanne Atwater have distilled the essence of leadership and answer questions that aspiring leaders ask. This is among the most valuable and insightful books on leadership I have seen, one that works well at the intersection of theory and practical leadership. A very worthy read.
-- Governor Sean Parnell, Alaska
Al and Leanne’s experiences and teachings in Applied Leadership Development drive home the message of what we take on in our roles as leaders. Leadership is about courage, accountability and the willingness to grow and change.　 This book is more than a one-time read, it is a tremendous resource manual that will help you grow regardless of where you are in your leadership journey.
-- Scott Knutson, Vice President, Executive Accounts, Nalco Champion
A great read on what I call ‘doing’ leadership. What sets this book apart is its focus on the way leadership characteristics that we read about, can be ‘applied’. By combining research findings with anecdotes that speak to the fine art of leadership, Leanne and Al provide a useful reference tool for going from ‘learning’ to ‘doing’ leadership.
--Latha Ramchand, C. T. Bauer College of Business, University of Houston, USA
Bolea and Atwater do a masterful job of blending practical experiences with cutting edge research. Their story-telling approach powerfully combines wisdom with theory into a book that reads more like a weekend novel than a leadership development guide. Suitable for corporate development as well as university classrooms, practitioners and scholars alike will find the book to be highly informative, research supported, and a pleasure to read. 
-- Kevin B. Lowe, University of Auckland, Fletcher Building Education Trust Chair in Leadership
The book is a treasure trove of information that provides practical examples of, as well the theoretical bases for, leadership principles that work. This insightful book is written in a style that presents complex ideas in a highly accessible and usable manner. It is a good cover-to-cover read as well as great reference to review when specific leadership opportunities arise.
-- John R. D. Stalvey, University of Alaska, Anchorage, USA
True to its title, Applied Leadership Development delivers plenty of application in the art and science of leadership. Co-author Al Boleaadds his insights from a lifetime of field experience to the tested research of co-author and leadership scholar Leanne Atwater. The resulting synergy not only bridges theory and practice but also prescribes powerful leadership behaviors, based on Bolea’s 'J-Curve' model, describing nine elements for leadership mastery.
--Ken Shelton, editor/publisher of Leadership Excellence magazine, 1984-2014
