The Right to Health Care: Ethical Considerations

"In an important and ground-breaking book, Husband has corralled a compelling basket of texts and arguments to support her case. There is much here for the amateur and the professional scholar alike." - Larry Hudson, Department of History, University of Rochester

"The writers Husband treats in Antislavery Discourse and Nineteenth-Century American Literature are the co-creators of our present progressive political discourse, their issues our issues: health care, diversity, civil rights . . .She understands the complexity and constraint of sentimentalist plots and logics in their writing, especially as they struggle to address their urgent social issues." - Neil Schmitz, Professor of American Literature, SUNY-Buffalo

"A welcome fresh look . . .Tracing the afterlife of antislavery discourse beyond the Civil War, Husband succeeds in illuminating both the continuities between the maternalist politics of antebellum and Progressive-era women reformers and the paradigm shift Frederick Douglass initiated in civil rights agitation by rejecting sentimental images of broken families for embodiments of black masculinity." - Carolyn L. Karcher, author of The First Woman in the Republic: A Cultural Biography of Lydia Maria Child

If you read this book, absorb its timeless principles and work your way through the examples, you will learn a great deal and it will serve you well in your career. 
--Allan Mann, FREng
"The skill of the structural engineer lies in creating possibilities where others see the impossible. This skill requires years of nurture and practice, which is why this book is a must have on any book shelf. It focuses on the embedment of fundamental principles in structural mechanics to design. Read it! Enjoy it! Apply it!"
-- Tim Ibell, University of Cambridge and past-president of the Institution of Structural Engineers
"Mike Byfield has hit on an essential first principle of his own: To make things as simple as possible but no simpler. His illustrations are deceptively minimal, but they demonstrate another engineering first principle….to an engineer, a line is not just a line….it is short-hand, code, for a real structure, responding to mathematics, physics, environment, gravity, people, money, time, weather. The structure to which these first principle should apply are practical, useful, modest, connected to the rest of the world….they have foundations, mass, structural integrity, and in the right hands can be made to actually work beginning with the principles in the book. Here is an approach that brings first principles in an accessible way to everyone whether student engineer or ancient practitioner. After all, why would any engineer learn "second principles", without nailing the first ones first? As I looked through his examples I found myself thinking: "You know what, perhaps engineering’s not quite so hard after all…."
-- Chris Wise, FREng, HonFRIBA, Expedition, UK

"I consider this book to be good value for money. I would recommend it especially to those who are interested in crossovers between building structure design and bridge structure design."
-- John Lyness in The Structural Engineer
"...simplifies and demystifies the theory of structural design and, through practical examples, makes the principles simple and easy to understand."
-- Yancheng Cai in Civil Engineering (Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers)

This is an important and timely (or time-sensitive) book, both in philosophical and in practical-political terms.&#8212;Fred Dallmayr, Notre Dame Philosophical Review&mdash;This is a book that needed to be written. Habermas's critique of disclosure was at times narrow and shortsighted. But as Habermas is now rethinking some of these shortcomings, Kompridis gives him&#8212;and indeed all critical theorists&#8212;ample resources for a stronger integration of disclosive with formal and procedurally guided forms of thought.&#8212;James Swindal, International Journal of Philosophical Studies&mdash;With Critique and Disclosure, Nikolas Kompridis makes an impressive intervention in the self-definition of Critical Theory [&#8230;this book] will become a necessary reading for all those invested in the reinvigoration or, possibly, transformation of this tradition.&#8212;Patrick Gamez, Symposium: Canadian Journal of Continental Philosophy&mdash;

"This invaluable collection provides an insight into the range of contributions that Colin Holmes made to the historical study of immigration and minorities. The essays collected here are written by his many former students and colleagues and are evidence of the depth of his work and its continuing relevance today. A must read for all who want to situate migration within a broader historical frame." Professor John Solomos, Sociology, University of Warwick

"A fitting tribute to a truly pioneering scholar whose　individual endeavour, as well as unstinting support for junior academics, has　resulted in　a much greater understanding of the importance of migration in modern Britain.　Its coverage is truly astounding and its list of　contributors reads like a veritable 'Who's Who' within this now well-developed and well-respected　academic field" Dr David Dee, Associate Professor in Modern History, De Montfort University. Author of The 'Estranged' Generation? Social and Generational Change in Interwar British Jewry (2017) and Sport and British Jewry: Integration, Ethnicity and Anti-Semitism, 1880-1970 (2013)
"Anyone wandering into the field of Britain's migration history soon discovers that the indispensable work has already been done - by Colin Holmes. Many years before it became a fashionable or topical subject, he became its master. There is not much written on the subject, even now, that does not owe a great deal to his original and inspiring spadework."　Robert Winder, Migration Museum Project Trustee, UK.

"High Rise and Fall takes a no holds barred view of the historically cyclical nature of the property sector to provide an invaluable perspective for any new entrant, particularly of the core financial markets that underpin and invest in property globally as a core investment class. When 75% of the world wealth is invested in global real estate this book gives a unique perspective on the financial backbone that make this one of the most exciting sectors to be involved with. A must read for "the love of property" on the "revival and survival" associated with a career in this great profession."

’...a richly textured case study in the most consequential development in international migration out of China since the coolie trade.  NyÃ­ri’s up-to-the-minute familiarity with the theoretical debate about new trends in ethnic identity, nationalism and transnational community in the age of economic globalization, themes that he skillfully and creatively incorporates into his analysis, makes his work far more widely relevant than its title might at first suggest.’ Gregor Benton, Cardiff University, UK  ’...highly readable...’ Far Eastern Economic Review  ’...this volume, the first ever written on this subject in English, will be of great interest to both sinologists and social scientists interested in international migration, and will surely generate further research and scholarly debate.’ Nationalism and Ethnic Politics  'The study provides an excellent model of a migrant population that has copied successfully with its new environment.' The Ethnic Conflict Research Digest  '...presents a significant contribution to the literature on the changing patterns of international immigration and the transformation of overseas Chinese communities.  Overall, this study is well thought out with a clear focus, and offers an interesting thesis illustrated by a particular case.' American Journal of Chinese Studies
