The Unconquered Air

Praise for Two Faced :&#8220;A series to watch.&#8221;&#8212;Booklist:"[A] strong debut...This is a procedural with heart, yet it doesn&#8217;t shy away from the dark." &#8212;Publishers Weekly"[A] solid British procedural debut...A strong choice for fans of Deborah Crombie." &#8212;Library Journal"In this smart, dark debut, A. R. Ashworth dishes up a gritty, satisfying plate of murder, greed, and psychopathology. The good guys are flawed in wonderfully human ways. And the bad guys? Evil to the bone...A whirlpool of tension that circles inevitably toward both truth and tragedy, with an ending that will leave readers craving for the next offering in the series." &#8212;William Kent Krueger, New York Times bestselling and Edgar-Award-winning author of the Connor O&#8217;Cork series"Evil&#8212;murderous evil&#8212;is afoot in London. Luckily, so is [DI Elaine] Hope...Smart, strong, and determined, she doesn&#8217;t give up, won&#8217;t back down, and mustn&#8217;t be underestimated. We could all use a bit more Hope in our lives." &#8212;Jon Jefferson, New York Times bestselling author of Jefferson Bass&#8217;s Body Farm mysteries&#8220;In Souls of Men, A. R. Ashworth introduces a worthy protagonist in Detective Elaine Hope. Elaine is an engaging blend of strength and compassion, a competent investigator thrown into a case that could push her to the breaking point...Ashworth&#8217;s sensitivity weaves Elaine&#8217;s humanity into a satisfying thriller.&#8221;&#8212;Jaden Terrell, Shamus Award nominee and author of the internationally published Jared McKean mysteries

From the reviews:

"It is the first thorough study of eighteenth century botanical illustrations. … The book is richly illustrated with well chosen pictures, facilitating the discussion. In all, this is a book that can be warmly recommended to all interested in the history of botany as well as in the pictorial world of Linnaeus’ times." (Gunilla Törnvall, Svenska Linnesällscapets Arsskrift, 2008)

"Blending business strategy and game design principles, Niman offers a fresh perspective that looks at how traditional universities must change in order to remain competitive in a rapidly changing environment. Rather than abandoning the residential college experience, he uses gamification to map out a strategy that will enable brick and mortar institutions to compete against the growing wave of online offerings." - Mark W. Huddleston, President, University of New Hampshire, USA

"You're likely to find Niman's remedy for the current problems facing the higher education industry both provocative and enticing. As voices grow louder questioning the viability of the traditional system, he shows how game design can be used to fashion a thoughtful solution. By rethinking the entire academic experience, he seeks to engage students and professors in a world of co-creation and value optimization." - Kevin Bell, Executive Director of Curriculum Development and Deployment, College of Professional Studies, Northeastern University, USA

'The introduction of the chapter on Geotechnical Design (Chapter 13) is particularly welcome, as the subject is an extremely practical aspect of civil engineering and in my experience students struggle to make sensible decisions in terms of geotechnical design. This is particularly the case regarding decisions on reasonable parameter values to use in design.
A particular strength is the inclusion of spreadsheet-based analysis tools. The use of spreadsheets is an extremely useful and indeed relatively powerful way to execute many design calculations in engineering and we are continually encouraging our students to make more use of them. They are particularly useful for parametric studies which are precisely the type of studies which should always be carried out as part of geotechnical design calculations.'

'Teaching to Change the World is the perfect text for new teachers. It is squarely realistic while also inviting; it is information-packed and at the same time engaging. Teaching to Change the World makes me think of jazz – it is multivocal, it highlights classroom improvisation, and it is bound together with a deep rhythm of equity, justice, research, and democracy.'
—Christine Sleeter, Professor Emerita California State University Monterey Bay
'It is rare to find a book that deals so elegantly with the historical, social, philosophical and legal foundations of schooling while also providing tangible strategies for developing exemplary curriculum and instruction and for connecting learning in schools to families, communities, and civic engagement. Oakes, Lipton, Anderson and Stillman’s thoughtful illumination of the "hopeful struggle" is ideal for teachers and school leaders who refuse to choose between their commitments to social justice and academic excellence.'
—Ernest Morrell, University of Notre Dame

"Make no mistake. There is no other book remotely like this one. It initiates a new era in the study of black London's subterranean music scenes and the broader youth cultures that they continue to fuel. Bramwell has not only accomplished an invaluable work of cultural history but provided a welcome reorientation for all future work in this field."
— Paul Gilroy, King's College London, UK

“This book may be recommended for mathematics teacher educators interested in including a more equity-focused lens into their teacher education programs, particularly those who may not have experience in this arena. … This makes the text particularly useful as a personal reference guide, especially when implementing specific ideas, modules, or the entirety of the TEACH Math project.” (Cristina Runnalls, MAA Reviews, November 9, 2019)

'This wonderful additional to the field offers an informed and helpful insight into the world of personal development groups. The collaboration of contributing authors, all experienced practitioners, supervisors and academics, provides an engaging and valuable resource to trainee counsellors and therapists and others interested in their own personal development. The rich integration of theory, practice examples, case studies and reflective exercises creates a well-informed companion guide, signposting the reader seamlessly through the often complex, challenging and ultimately rewarding experience of personal development groups.' - Anna Playle, Psychotherapist, Supervisor & Programme Director and Senior Lecturer, Canterbury Christ Church University　 

'It is acknowledged that personal development groups, although essential to therapeutic education, can be experienced with some trepidation—not only by students! This book, produced by five experienced and committed practitioners will be welcomed by trainee therapists, their teachers and supervisors. It is a 'go-to' handbook that helps to demystify the purposes and processes involved in PD group membership where the need for good facilitation and active participation is a given. This book is definitive in its broad-spectrum coverage and it is presented in a very accessible format.' - Marjorie Ashdown, BACP Fellow, PD Group Supervisor, Clinical Supervisor and Therapist

'I would thoroughly recommend this book to anyone who works with people, as it has certainly enhanced my capacity for reflection and broadened my personal development. The exercises were often transformative and encouraged me to look at things from a slightly different perspective. They encouraged self-reflection and I felt my capacity for personal development deepened through the experience. I especially appreciated the vignettes throughout which allowed me to put my learning into context.' - Margo Fourman, Special Education and Learning Development Tutor, University of Huddersfield

"Locating fictions of relationship 'at the heart of both literary criticism and human affairs' and acknowlegeing his own 'distinctly humanistic' concerns, Weinstein writes in an urgent tone and eloquent voice, inflecting the theme of 'relationship' in every way: in its surrender to the erotic, its frenzied drive for control of the Other, in its ability to confer identity or eclipse difference. . . When he couples texts, he takes risks that bear brilliant fruit."
