Government, authority and control, 1830-1940

Policing the empire

"We do not just improvise sometimes and in some domains but all the time, in multi-modal, online, and interactive ways. Or so this wonderful book claims in ways that are fully persuasive. This book on improvisation in thought, in life, in action, and in interaction in a wide variety of everyday, artistic, and social domains is a breath of inter- and transdisciplinary fresh air in a field that continues to grow and expand. It is required reading for improvisation scholars in philosophy, in the arts, in pedagogy, in sports, and in creativity studies in general."
Aili Bresnahan, University of Dayton, USA
"Improvisation is the defining feature of human social life and is the essence of creativity. This fascinating book contains chapters on music, dance, planning, the classroom, and social life. The unifying insight is that improvisation is always present in our everyday lives. This book will be essential reading for anyone concerned with improvisational action, collaboration, and creativity, including scholars in the arts, in sociology, and in philosophy."
Keith Sawyer, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA

Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Theory and Practice

Philosophy of Improvisation

A lovely series of books with colourful illustrations and interactive pages that encourage children to explore and share their emotions. The wheels, flaps and sliders provided great discussion points … and are great for reading together as they raise a lot of questions to get the whole family talking about their feelings.

"What begins as a twisty fantasy adventure ends as a call to action, empowering readers to question the status quo and create a world in which we are stronger together." — SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL, Starred Review

"Utterly surprising in its construction and philosophical scope, this remarkable adventure is one that readers will happily repeat." — BOOKLIST, Starred Review

"Brown’s clever mashup smashes genre constraints, rendering this akin to It’s a Wonderful Life told through a delightfully snarky gamer’s lens, absent Christmas but heavy on the monsters. . . . . Complex, challenging, and ultimately rewarding." — KIRKUS

"With the book’s appealing mix of highbrow philosophizing with lowbrow humor, the silly paves the way for the profound." — FOREWORD

"Uses online multiplayer gaming tropes to explore themes of taking responsibility for one’s actions and the importance of facing challenges head-on." — PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

“No Exit meets Dungeons & Dragons, with a hulking existential crisis to go with its giant slug killing.” —

“‘The Devil was apt to be around every corner, in disguise, trying to get me to do naughty things, and because I was a girl I was especially in danger. After all, if Eve, a grown-up woman, had been fooled, I must be very careful.’ If laughter is good for the soul, then Kathy Gereau's hilarious, effortlessly charming stories are exactly the elixir we need. Heavens above, this is righteously funny stuff.”—Jane Guill, author of Nectar from a Stone“Serious Little Catholics is a seriously funny book. Gereau has a fabulous take on her grade school education ruled by a flotilla of scary nuns. You don’t have to be Catholic to appreciate her wrangling with a passel of siblings or the speculations of her classmates (What do you think is under the nuns’ habits?). And by the time she reveals her seventh-grade infatuation with the Beatles, we’ve already been swept up by her wry observations and engaging realizations. Five stars on the Chuckle Meter!”—Mary Ann Presman, author of The Good Dishes“Serious Little Catholics, Kathy Gereau’s delightful debut memoir, captures a time and culture that is essential to the midwestern landscape. Gereau’s inviting, conversational style draws us in and welcomes us to stay. Her hilarious, thoughtful, and moving stories evoke a time of station wagon way-backs, sock hops, fake Barbie dolls, road trips, and kids’ tables at family gatherings. Through it all, Gereau moves to a deeper understanding of what she might believe, and perhaps more importantly, what she might not.”—Patricia Ann McNair, author of Responsible Adults

"Elizabeth Tuleja has written an excellent and balanced introduction to cross-cultural behavior. She interweaves cross-cultural anecdotes, longer cases, and a firm grasp of the major theories and approaches in the cross-cultural area to produce a highly readable, sensitive, and insightful introduction to this amazingly complicated area. Professor Tuleja has also expanded the number of examples to include those describing European, New Zealander and Australian issues. As well, she theorizes about the influence that Covid-19 is exerting on cross-cultural behavior. In every substantive chapter she has also introduced a unique feature, 'In My Own Words: Cross-cultural experiences of people from around the world.' I highly recommend this new edition."

Martin J. Gannon, University of Maryland and California State University San Marcos, USA

"Elizabeth Tuleja brings a unique and welcome intercultural communication perspective to the field of global business. Her extensive background and mastery of the literature has resulted in an engaging book full of useful concepts, models, and real-life examples and cases that are suitable for both newcomers to the field and experienced practitioners."
Joyce Osland, Professor Emeritus, San Jose State University, USA and Senior Partner, Kozai Group



"This excellent book on intercultural communication for global business is a tool that will enhance your mindset and skill set in a way that develops cultural intelligence. It is my opinion that every business leader, politician, salesperson, negotiator, and diplomat should own a copy of this book and read it well. Just as Emotional Intelligence can be developed, so too can Cultural Intelligence be developed, and as much as we need Emotional Intelligence in our world today, we also definitely need Cultural Intelligence if we hope to lead well in this new globalized reality. This is a book you must own, and once you own, make the contents your own!"
Rob Elkington, CEO and President, Global Leadership Initiatives; Ontario Tech University Faculty of Education, Stellenbosch University School of Public Leadership; Trent University Faculty, Master of Management


"Tuleja provides a lucid and timely compass for navigating cultures in a rapidly globalizing, often polarizing world. Practical intercultural tools, fresh thought-provoking case studies and engaging activities offer students and professionals lit pathways for effective communications across a dizzying array of clashing cultures. Don’t leave home without it!"
Joe Lurie, Award-Winning Author and UC Berkeley International House Executive Director Emeritus
