Die Kelten – Geschichte, Kultur und Sprache

From the book reviews:“It provides the reader with a compendium of studies that enable one to stay abreast of recent developments that can in turn be used to inform one’s research and teaching. While these contributions are clearly intended for a scholarly audience, the contributions are written in such a manner that beginning graduate students, and potentially advanced undergraduates, would find the contributions informative and helpful.” (Mark Aakhus, Argumentation, Vol. 28, 2014)

&ldquo;A fierce and damaged man, T. H. White wrote about fierce and damaged people&mdash;and children, and animals&mdash;with a brilliant, painful innocence that has no equal in literature. He is so good at hurt and shame&mdash;how did he also manage to be so funny? I have laughed at his great Arthurian novel and cried over it and loved it all my life.&rdquo;&mdash;Ursula K. Le Guin &#160; &ldquo;Certain books offer pleasures so rich and enduring, they become part of what defines us. The Once and Future King is like that for me. It manages&mdash;by some miracle&mdash;to be about its own time, and a distant, legendary time, and about today. It mingles wisdom, wonderful, laugh-out-loud humor and deep sorrow&mdash;while telling one of the great tales of the Western world. I envy the reader coming to it for the first time.&rdquo;&mdash;Guy Gavriel Kay &#160; &ldquo;White took hold of the ultimate English epic and recast it in modern literary language, sacrificing none of its grandeur or its strangeness in the process, and adding in all the humor and passion that we expect from a novel. What was once as stiff and two-dimensional as a medieval tapestry becomes rich and real and devastatingly sad.&rdquo;&mdash;Lev Grossman &#160; &ldquo;Touching, profound, funny and tragic.&rdquo;&mdash;Los Angeles Times &#160; &ldquo;Richly imagined and unfailingly eloquent and entertaining, its appeal is timeless and universal. If a reader reads only one Arthurian tale, let this be it.&rdquo;&mdash;Booklist &#160; &ldquo;The Once and Future King is full of insights, scenes and flourishes that are really quite astonishing.&rdquo;&mdash;The Guardian (U.K.)

"... fills a significant gap in the literature, providing updated information about the latest radiation measurement instrumentation and guidelines for its use. Another advantage of the new book is that it is structured as a textbook, including questions for the student at the end of each chapter, which increases its appeal beyond a reference for specialists."—Laura Hinkelman, PhD., University of Washington
"… provides the type of details needed for engineering a solar radiation monitoring system, including a history of devices used, detailed descriptions of the state-of-the-art devices, methods of calibration and uncertainty estimation, setup of a solar monitoring station, and manufacturers who can provide the equipment."—Frank Rytkonen, P.E., Oregon Institute of Technology, Portland, USA

’Frances Nethercott, a frequent visitor to Russia, has written an important book which gives more than just a scholarly description of the reading of Plato: it offers a sensitive and important insight into Â Russian intellectual life in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. I recommend it to not only Russianists but all European intellectual historians.’  Constance Blackwell, President of the International Society for Intellectual History  'At the conclusion of this well-researched, nuanced, and clearly written monograph in intellectual history, Frances Nethercott asks if there was a "Russian Platonism" distinct from "the interpretations produced by, say, the early Christians, the Renaissance, the Cambridge School, German idealism, or indeed, neo-Kantianism but which might be rightfully included in such a list of Platonic revivals?"...The book has many merits.  It justifiably passes over the "intellectual silence" of old Russia... It is academically rigorous in the basics, the history of translations of each dialogue, the biographies...the publications of Russians in the field of ancient history, thought, and law, and in its survey of the mountainous corpus of western classical scholarship... It gives full credit to the intellectual vitality and importance of the theological academies so often neglected in traditional Russian intellectual history.'  Slavic Review  '... this book is full of interesting ideas and arguments, and I recommend it to those interested in Plato's scholarship.' International Studies in Philosophy

"This innovative text on clinical supervision weaves neuroscience concepts into each chapter to provide a holistic overview of how neuroscience can inform supervision practice. Consideration is given to all aspects of supervisory practice, including assessing supervisee brain states, attending to negative implicit biases, and examining executive function. The additional resources are a highlight, especially the video demonstrating the practical application of five supervision theories. The text is a must-have for current and soon-to-be clinical supervisors."—Thom Field, PhD, LMHC, assistant professor of psychiatry at Boston University School of Medicine
"Russell-Chapin and Chapin continue to extend the infusion of neuroscience in the helping professions with this new text, which eloquently aligns existing supervision approaches with innovative theory and research in various neuroscience disciplines. This approach provides supervisors with a neuro-informed approach that explores the underlying mechanisms of existing supervisory practice while extending this knowledge with new conceptualizations of the mechanisms influencing successful supervisory relationships. As a supervisor, this will be a go-to resource that connects innovative theory to practice!"—Eric Beeson, PhD, LPC, NCC, core faculty in the Counseling@Northwestern program at Northwestern University
"This fascinating textbook adds a rich component that strengthens what we know about integrated neurocounseling and clinical supervision. Client conceptualization is enhanced with the addition of neurocounseling concepts. The videos are an excellent way to showcase multiple models of clinical supervision in action with Dr. Lori Russell-Chapin and several supervisees. This text is an asset to building strong and necessary clinical supervision in therapy and is a must have."—Carrie Alexander-Albritton, PhD, NCC, LPC, CADC, professor of counselor education at Western Illinois University-Quad Cities

Theology without Words is not only an original contribution to Disability Studies, but also offers  a fascinating  insight into a silent world where meaning and faith are alive and well without speech. John M. Hull, Emeritus Professor of Religious Education, University of Birmingham and Honorary Professor of Practical Theology, Queen's Foundation for Ecumenical Theological Education, UK  Theology without Words is a well written book and challenges 'mainstream' theology to take more notice of other theologies, particularly the story-telling nature of Deaf theology. Revd. Cathy Nightingale, Chaplain among Deaf People and Team Vicar, Diocese of Manchester, Church of England   The theology of disability needs thinkers who are careful and rigorous, yet thoughtful and creative. Wayne Morris is all of these things. In this challenging and provocative book Morris not only opens our eyes to new perspectives on a practical theology of deafness, he also provides deep methodological and practical insights into how the field of disability can and should be researched and precisely why it might be important that this is done well. This is an important book.  John Swinton, Professor in Practical Theology and Pastoral Care, King's College, University of Aberdeen, UK  ’Morris’ book is a valuable, well-researched combination of theological analysis and ethnographic studies and is an important contribution to the growing field of theology and disability studies. This book is practical theology at its finest and can be read profitably by theological scholars and church professionals alike.’ Religious Studies Review  ’... for readers without experience of the deaf community Theology Without Words provides a window through which that community may begin to be seen and to be better valued for its uniqueness.’ Theology  'This study, an important addition to the Practical Theology series, is also a valuable contribution to the field of Disability Studies. ...

This book is very timely and provides a comparative take on judicial review in relation to elections in nine Asian jurisdictions whose constitutional systems are based on common law or civil law principles.
Yap Po Jen is highly qualified to undertake the task of bringing relevant scholars together to discuss the relevant issues in a comparative frame of reference. He has done so superbly and this book is to be highly recommended."

Professor Po Jen Yap has assembled a formidable group of legal thinkers from Asia, joined them with their counterparts from Canada, Australia, and South Africa, and produced a unique and provocative collection of essays on an under-studied area of public law, the law governing the elections process. This collection of essays invites us to think afresh about the role of courts and, in some instances, election commissions—and the legal and political constraints they face—in supervising the integrity of the elections process. The collection manages both to focus in on the nuances of particular jurisdictions and to pan out for a wide-angle view across the political spectrum from the politically fragile to the dominant-party to the vibrant, multi-party democracies of Asia.

The paradox of democracy is that its flourishing depends on judicial institutions that are insulated from politics. Yet until recently, there has been scant attention to the role of courts in making Asian democracies work. This book fills that void, offering fascinating perspectives from top-notch scholars on how courts have intervened in Asian elections, sometimes constructively and sometimes disastrously. It is essential reading for anyone who cares about democracy and wants to see it thrive, in Asia and across the globe.
