"Informative." -- Choice"[A] must read for scholars and policymakers." -- Valerie Jenness, University of California, Irvine"In the Name of Hate is an ambitious undertaking which represents a painful reality in the wake of the national tragedy of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks against the United States.  While published prior to that date, this work adds a rather unique dimension to the scholarship on power and institutionalized discrimination and has global as well as domestic implications." -- Journal of Sociology and Social Welfare

Understanding Hate Crimes

In the Name of Hate

'Most debates about regulating prostitution assume that feminists all want to use criminal law to punish male customers and ‘send a message’ that prostitution exploits women. In this important and timely book, Jane Scoular develops an analysis of sex work laws, including anti-trafficking efforts, that is feminist but rejects the use of coercive law. Scoular’s nuanced approach is a breath of fresh air, and should be read both by feminists and by anyone interested in criminal law and criminal justice policy' - Mariana Valverde, University of Toronto, Canada. 
'A clear, incisive scrutiny of law’s historical role in shaping and responding the prostitute as sinful, diseased, abused or rights bearing. Scoular shows how law matters less by what it formally says than by what it does. Her careful Foucauldian study exposes the complexity and contingency of sex work as an object of study that has generated so much tension and contradiction in the past and present. Essential reading for scholars, policy makers, and engaged citizens who want to break the stalemate between entrenched positions on prostitution as "forced and free" -- a first step to exploiting legal mechanisms towards the "unachievable goal of justice.' - Judith R. Walkowitz, Professor Emerita of History, Johns Hopkins University

The Subject of Prostitution

"Anyone looking closely at pedagogy and curriculum issues in transnational or non-Anglophile higher education contexts in particular needs to jump feet first into this book. The book presents and explores a wide range of inter-related complex issues concerning cross-cultural teaching and learning. For all educators working to internationalise teaching, learning policy and practice, this collection of authoritative writing offers pragmatic strategies and useful research findings to enable informed debate, consideration of the ideas and challenges of internationalisation and guidance on implementation strategies. The book provides the basis for acting with confidence in this challenging field".- John Senior, Gifted Education International

From the reviews:“The book is divided in 34 short chapters including the introduction and a conclusion. … Each chapter ends with some historical details on the mathematical authors who have been cited in the chapter. The book is surely interesting both from the mathematical point of view … and for the historical background on homogenization theory, including H-convergence and Young measures. … many mathematicians will learn how to use the key tools and to develop the basic but deep tools which can be used within this context.” (Alain Brillard, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1188, 2010)“In his book Luc Tartar ‘re-animates’ the historical genesis of one of the most important ideas in mathematical analysis of the last century, leading to a general theory of homogenization … . a treasure trove for all those working in the field and those who want to get acquainted with it. … it encourages young researchers to build on the material offered and develop new ideas. … he or she will appreciate the author’s effort to give a ‘full’ and perhaps necessarily personalized picture.”­­­ (Guenter Leugering, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2011 c)

A Personalized Introduction

The General Theory of Homogenization

'Somatization—the expression of psychological problems through physical symptoms and the production of these symptoms in reaction to life stressors—has both captivated and frustrated health care providers for centuries. The unique combination of theory, empirical data, and clinical case studies presented in this volume integrates a complex and fascinating literature, providing a guide for both improved clinical practice and future scientific investigation. The neuropsychological library of the practicing clinician is incomplete without this volume.' - Glenn J. Larrabee, Ph.D., ABPP Clinical Neuropsychology, Independent Practice, Sarasota, Florida
'This cohesive edited collection of chapters by experts in somatoform disorder is an impressive volume about easily misunderstood and misdiagnosed conditions. Its practical knowledge regarding etiology, assessment, and differential diagnosis will fill education and training gaps, making it essential reading for trainees and pediatric, adult, and lifespan clinicians and researchers across experience levels.' - Ida Sue Baron, Ph.D., ABPP University of Virginia and The George Washington University

'David Riesman was American sociology's great public intellectual of the 20th century. Riesman theorized about society and social character, cared about undergraduate teaching and higher education and intervened in the world effectively on questions of the nuclear arms race and the Berlin crisis in the early 1960s. These unpublished Riesman manuscripts and original essays on his ideas and life are an indispensable resource for understanding the pre-history of public sociology.' -Neil McLaughlin, McMaster University, Canada 'David Riesman was a major public intellectual of the second half of the last century, his views regularly solicited by major media and institutions. This volume collects some of his unpublished papers - lectures, letters, speeches, uncompleted articles - on a range of subjects, which illustrate his amazing fertility of mind, his talent as a writer and phrase-maker, and his unique ability to discern, from simple engagement with individuals and aspects of popular culture, significant trends in American society that now give him the aura of a prophet.' -Nathan Glazer, Harvard University, USA 'David Riesman will forever be remembered as the principal author of The Lonely Crowd, one of the most influential works of sociology ever written. But he deserves to be known for much more than that. As this valuable collection shows, he was a penetrating analyst of all facets of human culture, equipped with a supple, capacious, and curious mind, seemingly incapable of writing or speaking an uninteresting word. One can hear his humane voice and feel his generous and liberal spirit in these pages.' -Wilfred M. McClay, University of Oklahoma, USA'This collection of texts will undoubtedly help rekindle interest in Riesman’s work.' - Contemporary Sociology

'Using materials accumulated in large-scale surveys conducted in the 2000s, as well as an impressive array of Russian- and English-language secondary sources, the author charts the scope, contours, and causes of rural inequality after the Soviet Union. Individual chapters explore dimensions of inequality, ranging from social capital to profession and from gender to location, combining to provide a multifaceted picture of the Russian countryside in recent years. Wegren's overall approach is institutional, and he locates the driving factors of inequality creation in the design of post-Soviet institutions impacting rural life. Although rural inequality in Russia is at its highest level since the Russian Revolution of 1917, Wegren concludes that it is unlikely to be a source of social instability in Russia in the foreseeable future. Summing Up: Recommended.' – D. Rogers, Yale University, CHOICE Magazine, July 2014 Vol. 51 No. 11
