"Quiet, pleasing ink-and-watercolor pictures illustrate the text, and an attractive two-page classification chart shows 'Life on Earth,' divided and subdivided into categories. This picture book provides young children with a simple, informative, age-appropriate introduction to mammals."&mdash;Booklist &#160; "Largely eschewing scientific vocabulary in favor of clear explanations (the terms 'vertebrates' and 'invertebrates' are introduced in a diagram in the backmatter), Rockwell&rsquo;s text focuses on the concepts. The fine-lined ink-and-watercolor illustrations are as clear and straightforward as the text, with the carefully labeled renderings of the animals examined particularly meticulous. . . . A clear, respectful introduction." &mdash;Kirkus Reviews &#160; "Ink-and-watercolor illustrations are detailed and complement the text nicely. . . . A solid option for classrooms and libraries"&mdash;School Library Journal &#160; "[Readers will] learn plenty about the ways that animals are categorized and classified."&#160;&mdash;Publishers Weekly

Advance praise for So Sad to Fall in Battle&#8220;Kumiko Kakehashi&#8217;s detailed and moving new study . . . allows us to see the human face behind the fanatical Japanese of American war time myth. One finishes the book in awe of the way troops endured hellish conditions, and moved by touches of humanity that shone through their final days.&#8221;&#8211;Philip Gabriel, author of Spirit Matters: The Transcendent in Modern Japanese Literature

'An insightful and important study that highlights the limitations of recycling and a need to appreciate the complexity of human relationships with material artefacts in order to achieve progress towards sustainable consumption.' -Dr Tim Cooper, author of Longer Lasting Solutions (Gower 2010) 
'[Designing for Re-Use] shows an interesting approach and a different way of thinking about packaging and the use of our resources. It goes deep into consumer behavior and might actually inspire designers as well as consumers to design, and maybe even shop, for re-use.' -Treehugger 
'Well referenced and researched, this book injects energy into the problem of how to deal with packaging waste. ...this is not another Blue Peter annual showing how to live the Good Life; rather, it is a worthy attempt at understanding how consumers relate to packaging in the privacy of their homes.' -Charles Newman, Resource Magazine
'Designing for Re-use will appeal to a variety of users including those studying product and packaging design methods. It will appeal to those interested in craft and environmentally based design disciplines. The book will also appeal to consumers interested in reducing their own carbon footprint and wanting to live in a more sustainable way- the book is a great advocate for sponsoring spontaneous creativity and encourages people to question if they should really be throwing away their waste packaging and thinking about secondary applications within their homes.' Jim Collingham, The Design Journal

"An original and exciting contribution to the urgent task of interrogating the political, cultural and social practices that underpin international law and the framing of the international more generally. The transformations brought about by globalization have made of international law one of the crucial sites for key principles of the legal and political order." -- Saskia Sassen, Ralph Lewis Professor of Sociology, The University of Chicago, and author of Guests and Aliens"Our understanding of international law and world politics have long suffered from a 'hardening of the categories.' Reframing the International offers a refreshing and important antidote to this malady.  It interrogates many of our most cherished orientations and demonstrates how reframing inquiry into global political life allows greater insight and opens new possibilities for action." -- Paul Wapner, Associate Professor and Director, Global Environmental Politics Program, American University"The walls!  The walls!  Tear down those walls!  Since the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York and Washington, the walls of the 20th century have been closing back in. The siren calls of state, sovereignty, and security are offered as comfort but they continue to pose, as ever, danger, violence, and imprisonment.  Reframing the International reminds us, pointedly, that the old truths of international relations are no answer to the new realities of the 21st century." -- Ronnie D. Lipschutz, Professor of Politics, University of California, Santa Cruz"Stretch you mind with Reframing the International as some of the most creative thinkers of our time launch the right conversations for understanding what is possible in overcoming the deeply imbedded structures of injustice that too often govern our lives and discourse." -- John Cavanagh, Director, Institute for Policy Studies and co-author of Field Guide to the Global Economy

“Dr. Erwin provides a needed wake-up call to mental health professionals in her second edition of Group Techniques for Aging Adults. This book is must read for those who teach and practice group techniques because it clearly acknowledges the demographic imperative we face. Erwin understands the needs, gifts and talents of our rapidly increasing numbers of older people and of those who care for them, and she underscores the evidence-based value and power available to practitioners through the tailored application of sound group principles with these groups. A groundbreaking work in the field, we have here a valuable resource for mental health professionals and students.” - Michael W.

Group Techniques for Aging Adults

*** Winner: BSA Philip Abrams Memorial Prize 2016 ***
A deeply penetrating study of　a　movement that shatters conventional ideas　of left/right and racist/antiracist. 　　Busher's skilled and sensitive　ethnography　provides　new insight into　how the EDL　created a shared　world of anti-Muslim activism, and　how this world unraveled　in a cycle　of resentments, infighting,　and skepticism.　 　
Kathleen Blee, Distinguished Professor of Sociology, University of Pittsburgh, USA

Approachably written and closely observed, this book gets inside the life world　of EDL activists – a bunch of people　more complicated and varied than commonly imagined.　 Anyone wishing to understand the complexity and the contradictions at the heart of the English Defence League should read Joel Busher’s fascinating book.

Tim Bale, Professor of Politics, Queen Mary University of London, UK
Political causes emerge, change, cross-breed, and subside in complex ways. The English Defence League is a fascinating case, which emerged from networks of football hooligans, became a lightning rod for anti-Muslim sentiment, and yet resisted the racist slogans of the far Right. This fine book takes us inside the heads -- and hearts -- of the League's participants.

Professor James M. Jasper, the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, USA

Stepping in the shoes of English Defence League activists, Joel Busher paints an insightful inside-picture of the British anti-Islam movement. Years of carefully documented fieldwork yield a thick and rich description of a movement that rocked Great Britain for some time.

Bert Klandermans, Professor of Applied Social Psychology, VU-University Amsterdam, the Netherlands

"The English Defence League has been labelled fascist, racist, and extremist; its foot-soldiers have been disparaged as mindless thugs. Joel Busher is no EDL-sympathizer, and yet confronts such glib generalizations in this lucid and penetrating book. Busher really gets up close to reveal the essential heterogeneity of those who took to the streets and marched under the EDL banner. This is a superlative study. Everyone with an interest in anti-Muslim activism should read it." 

Professor Nigel Copsey, Teesside University, UK

Busher’s The Making of Anti-Muslim Protest: Grassroots Activism in the English Defence League is a masterful piece of story-telling, sewn together with solid theoretical insights into the individual and ecological dynamics that help to explain the rise, fall, and continuity of the EDL. This "boots on the ground" approach allows us to hear clearly how members at once distanced themselves from "racist" identities while nonetheless avowing "racist" sentiments.
Professor Barbara Perry, University of Ontario Institute of Technology, Canada
"As an analysis of a cross section of the group’s supporters, this book is full of important insights." -- Dr Paul Jackson, Searchlight Magazine, Spring/Summer 2016
