Propositional Content is a highly enjoyable and interesting contribution to the literature on the nature and role of propositions in philosophy. Moreover, by providing a detailed, book-length defense of the type-view of propositions, PC reinforces this way of thinking about propositions as a main contender in this area. . . . [it] is to be praised for raising a range of central questions, and for thoughtfully and clearly showing how the view of propositions
as types of acts handles a host of issues. It should be a must-read for anyone interested in the nature of propositions.

'Sutherland and Crowther's volume largely succeeds in placing itself in current political and educational developments by inviting a range of well-known and new authors to contribute to the volume... All of those involved in lifelong learning, however defined, will want to get hold of a copy of this book.' --Journal of Adult and Continuing Education
"This thoughtful and carefully organized collection of essays can serve as a text for university students of lifelong learning to explore both philosophical underpinnings of lifelong learning and its realities in everday life. It is also valuable to those of us who practice daily in the domain of lifelong learning, inspiring us to lift our heads from the technical rationality of planning, organizing, and delivering programs to reflect on our goals and methods, to recognize the paradoxes that shape our work, and to revitalize our dreams of a better world."--Linda MacDonald, Canadian Journal of University Continuing Education (Spring 2009), Vol. 35, No. 1: 63-66

In Words' Worth, Claudia Brodsky accomplishes the seemingly impossible: an original reading of Wordsworth that renders his potent commonplaces strange, much in the manner of the poet himself.  Rigorously lucid and seriously playful, engaging a range of interlocutors from Kant to Rousseau to Proust to Hegel to de Man, this meditation on language, aesthetics, power and knowledge puts Wordsworth’s work into philosophical motion, uniting poetry, philosophy and the work of the critic herself in a common endeavor of making and/as knowing.

"The authors offer theoretical and practical information to help paraprofessionals become better informed about the crucial topic of behavior, with a primary focus on positive approaches to encouraging pro-social interactions. Their suggestions balance evidence-based behavioral interventions with the importance of mutual respect, human connection, choice-making, and self-determination. They clearly establish the role of the paraprofessional as part of a collaborative team, working under the direction of a teacher or other qualified professional."
Michael F. Giangreco, PhD, Professor, Department of Education and the Center on Disability and Community Inclusion, University of Vermont, USA
"The Paraprofessional’s Guide to Effective Behavioral Intervention is an all-encompassing book about behavior. It begins with theories about why behavior occurs and ends with strategies and interventions based on positive behavior supports and RtI. As a paraeducator, it will engage and challenge you to think outside the box. A common thread and strength of the book is its repeating mantra that paraeducators (paraprofessionals, TAs) must work in tandem and under the direction of their supervising teachers making classroom management choices as a team in terms of what ‘works best’ for students."
Marilyn Likins, PhD., Director of Mild/moderate Alternative Teacher Preparation Program, and Director of National Resource Center for Paraeducators, Utah State University, USA

"This book is a must-read for people who want to learn more about the area of case management and how case management functionality is supported in various Oracle products, including the Oracle BPM Suite. It motivates with real-world examples and goes into details all the way to concrete implementation. The case management solution framework (CMSF) carved out in the book is technology agnostic and applicable in general. The case diagrams of the CMSF are modeled on case management model and notation (CMMN), which makes this book a good complement to the CMMN specification and, thus, is among the first books using CMMN.... we welcome this book as it nicely introduces the field of case management and then shows how the Oracle BPM Suite, with its comprehensive set of functionality from low-level service orchestration and mediation to business processes with BPMN 2.0 and case management components, can be used to implement adaptive case management solutions."—Vaishnavi Sashikanth, Vice President, Oracle Product Development—Ralf Mueller, Architect, Oracle BPM Suite"In my role in Oracle, where I am responsible for Fusion Middleware Partner Adoption in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, I have the privilege to talk to industry experts as well as to Oracle product management and product development teams.

"Global Ecologies and the Environmental Humanities is a must-read for anyone interested in the roots of today’s environmental crisis and possible solutions to it. This book brings an important international perspective to the emerging field of the environmental humanities and reenergizes familiar concepts such as the Anthropocene, resilience, and terraforming by placing them within imperial and postcolonial contexts. It also introduces new concepts to the environmental humanities conversation, such as postcolonial disaster studies and environmental theology. Surveying a broad range of cultural aesthetics, literary genres, and geographies, and deftly moving between global and local scales of inquiry, Global Ecologies and theEnvironmental Humanitiesoffers up a variety of exciting new methods for addressing the past, current, and future state of the world’s environment." - Erin James, University of Idaho, USA
"This may well be the decade that environmental humanities move to the front and centre of critical theory. This expertly assembled volume by a trio of vibrant scholars shows why. Bringing together diverse issues of disaster management, commodity frontiers and economies of scale with those of literary genres, styles, and forms the contributors show once again that our world and our texts remain indispensible to one another." -Upamanyu Pablo Mukherjee, Warwick University, UK
