This work does an excellent job of reinforcing the aphorism attributed to Einstein that understanding physics is child's play compared to understand child's play. Summing Up: Recommended.- B.C. Beins, Ithaca College, for CHOICE, November 2013.
How do human thinkers interact with reasoning norms? The Development of Thinking and Reasoning is a timely and impressive answer based on post-Piagetian and dual-process theories. Its central themes include children’s surprising capabilities, adults’ unexpected liabilities to error, interplays between heuristic and rule-based inferences. The promise is inviting: understanding rationality requires a developmental focus. - Leslie Smith, Lancaster University, UK
Developmental science owes much to Piaget, but the domain has also evolved considerably since his time. The Development of Thinking and Reasoning provides a scholarly contemporary survey of one major branch of developmental research. 　Beyond introducing readers to current thinking in the field, however, this book serves another important purpose – drawing out connections across epochs and between schools of thought while also sharpening the differences between them. Students and scholars alike will find it a valuable contribution to the developmental literature. - Michael W. Connell, Institute for Knowledge Design, Massachusetts, USA

The Development of Thinking and Reasoning

"Clearly written and accessible to both the novice and experienced clinician, Forensic Uses of Clinical Assessment Instruments is an invaluable resource in selecting and understanding how to best use popular psychological tests in forensic settings. Drs. Archer and Wheeler have compiled an outstanding group of experts who are able to offer authoritative reviews of their respective measures. Psychologists and attorneys alike will see this book as indispensable when preparing for testimony." - Dustin B. Wygant, PhD, Department of Psychology, Eastern Kentucky University

"In the second edition of Forensic Uses of Clinical Assessment Instruments, Archer and Wheeler provide an updated description of the forensic applications of the most commonly-used psychological tests. In this era of evidence-based practice, it is extraordinarily valuable for every forensic practitioner, legal professional, behavioral science scholar, clinical administrator, and trainee involved with forensic mental health assessment." - Kirk Heilbrun, PhD, Professor, Department of Psychology, Drexel University　
"Drs. Archer and Wheeler have assembled a "dream team" of the scholars who developed prominent psychological assessment instruments and provided the forum for these scholars to describe forensic applications of their instruments.　 The resulting book is remarkably practical. Each chapter is rooted in research and written to inform practice, even providing case examples. This is a handy text for forensic psychologists and other mental health clinicians who work with the justice system." - Daniel Murrie, PhD, Director of Psychology, Institute of Law, Psychiatry, and Public Policy; Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences, University of Virginia School of Medicine

"Placing feminist thought in dialogue with Camus' ethic of rebellion, Bartlett uncovers an 'auspicious coincidence' that will be a boon to philosophers, political scientists, social movement theorists, and feminists alike. Camus' rebellion is a strategy for resisting oppression while affirming a politics of justice and beauty, friendship and healing. With passionate clarity, Bartlett's Rebelious Feminism describes a way to live decently in the world." - Greta Gaard, Ph.D., author of Ecological Politics: Ecofeminists and the Greens, editor of Ecofeminism: Women, Animals, Nature and co-editor of Ecofeminist Literary Criticism

'Elizabeth Bartlett has found an 'auspicious coincidence' between feminism and Camus's rebellion against an absurd world begging for meaning. Both feminism and Camus plead for a just world in which love can thrive. Rebellion is not simply about the rejection of oppression but the affirmation of human dignity. Bartlett's illuminating analysis of Camus has helped me better appreciate feminism's message about empowering and freeing oneself within the limits of one's circumstances. Even if we cannot, as Camus writes, '...prevent the world from being a world in which children are tortured...we can reduce the number of tortured children...'' (Camus, The Rebel, 30) - Rosemarie Tong, PhD, Director, Center for Professional and Applied Ethics, Distinguished Professor in Health Care Ethics, Department of Philosophy, UNC Charlotte

Rockwell treats each vegetable like a treasure; even kids with aversions to veggies may be intrigued."&mdash;Publishers Weekly &#160; "The short, declarative sentences are easily digested by the very youngest and will tempt burgeoning readers to test their skills. Best of all, children will surely be inspired to taste some of the produce the next time it appears on their plates. Delicious on its own, and it will pair well with other books about gardens, plants, and healthy eating habits."&mdash;Kirkus Reviews &#160; "This gentle, colorful picture book explains, simply and accurately, how food gets from the garden and farm onto dining-room tables."&mdash;Booklist &#160; "Vivid and detailed gouache and colored-pencil-on-paper illustrations fill each page, and many of the pictures are actually large diagrams with labels and captions that complement the facts described.

Part 1 introduces an analytical framework for examining women's vulnerability to recession and austerity measures. Part 2 presents nine country case studies, including the US, the UK, Ireland, Hungary, and Portugal. Part 3 recommends policy changes." - Book News

Architecture Against the Post-Political represents a landmark moment in architectural theory. Fighting against a strong de-politicization of the theory and criticism surrounding the subject, this volume brings the full weight of recent critical philosophy to bear on the act of theorizing architecture.- Todd McGowan, Associate Professor at The University of Vermont 

Can a democratizing and emancipatory architectural theory and practice be reclaimed from the debilitating debris of post-political consensual technocracy and the obscene jouissance of post-modern nihilism? This book offers courageous answers and a timely foray into reopening a political space for architecture.- Erik Swyngedouw, Professor of Geography at The University of Manchester

Architecture Against the Post-Political

'As part of Routledge's "Medieval World" series, this book by historian Jamroziak (Univ. of Leeds, UK) presents a comprehensive examination of the Cistercian order in medieval Europe from its foundation to 1500...), this book is an extremely useful resource for those first delving into the Order of C'iteaux. Summing Up: Highly recommended.' - CHOICE 
'This book is an extremely useful resource for those first delving into the Order of C'iteaux.' - J. M. B. Porter, Butler University
“[Jamroziak’s] study is unusually strong in its inclusion of Cistercians on the periphery of medieval Europe as well as those in the center, and the linguistic abilities that allow that to be done are impressive.” - Constance H. Berman, University of Iowa, USA
"Jamroziak's survey, the first single-authored, English-language introduction to the history of the Cistercians to be published in many decades, effectively recasts Cisterican history by treating the early and later centuries of the order's existence, and its houses throughout Europe, evenhandedly. Immersed in the scholarly literature of eastern, central, and far northern Europe as well as that of what has generally been considered the Cistercian 'heartland' of France and England, Jamroziak successfully constructs a new history of an order that repeatedly transformed itself."Diane Reilly, Indiana University, Bloomington in Speculum 
"Jamroziak's source material ranges across the breadth of the Cistercian world, citing many examples not only from western Europe but also from the eastern European countries. This breadth of source material provides a more holistic account of the Cistercian enterprise, allowing Jamroziak to question whether the Cisterican order should not be consdiered Europe's first multinational organization." Greg Peters in Comitatus: A Journal of Medieval and Renaissance Studies 
"Emilia Jamroziak has done an excellent job bringing together recent scholarship in multiple languages, and her book provides illuminating details about Cisterican practices across Europe and throughout the Middle Ages." - Martha G. Newman, University of Texas at Austin in The American Historical Review
"The great originality of Jamroziak's work is in choosing to set aside the standard paradigm used by Lekai and and others, which is essentially an evaluative approach, judging the various phases of history in terms of rise, decline, and reform. The author also avoids the reductionist approach of many recent historians, whose dominant focus is on socio-economic realities to the exclusion of the religious dimension for whcih the monasteries were appreciated in their own time. The result is a well-balanced, multi-faceted, descriptive approach that traces Cistercian life in its first centuries in terms of change and adaptation." - Elias Dietz in Sehepunkte
"This is a very useful addition to the Medieval World series which provides a clear introduction to some of the key themes and debates in Cistercian historiography; the range of secondary material surveyed and synthesised is impressive." - K. Sykes in English Historical Review
"Overall, this book is an enjoyale and interesting read. Moving forward from previous narratives about decline, and utilizing an impressive range of case studies, Jamroziak succeeds in her aim of showing the Cistercians to be both a trans-European order and a collection of individual communities with varied experiences... This book has the potential to become the standard English-language introduction to the Cistercians in medieval Europe." - Georgina Fitzgibbon, Nottingham Medieval Studies
