The Stories Clothes Tell - Tatsuichi Horikiri - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

The Stories Clothes Tell - Tatsuichi Horikiri - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Spanning decades of research, this compelling social history tells the stories of ordinary people in modern Japan. Tatsuichi Horikiri spent a lifetime searching out old items of clothing—ranging from everyday kimono, work clothes, uniforms, and futons to actor’s costumes, diapers, hats, aprons, and bags. Simultaneously he collected oral history accounts to shed light on those who used these items. Horikiri reveals not only the difficult and sometimes desperate lives of these people, most from the lower strata in early twentieth-century Japan, he illuminates their hopes, aspirations, and human values. He also explores such topics as textile techniques, the history of fashion, and the ethnography of clothing and related cultural phenomena.Having been wrongly accused and tortured by the Japanese military police in China during World War II, Horikiri takes a deeply empathetic view of all those who struggle—from peasants and coal miners to traveling salesmen and itinerant performers. This personal connection sets his account apart, giving his writing great power and immediacy. Students and scholars of Japanese history, as well those interested in material culture, labor history, and feminist history, will find this book deeply illuminating.

Sustainability and Sustainable Development - Lisa Benton Short - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Sustainability and Sustainable Development - Lisa Benton Short - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

The challenge in teaching an introductory course on sustainability is there are many ways to teach it, and many issues to cover. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals offer a cohesive and interconnected set of topics to help address this problem – indeed the SDGs are now the guiding framework for planning and implementing sustainability through 2030. They are the focus of international development efforts, and the lingua franca of sustainability as a field of study, the international consensus on “what is sustainability?” As such, the UN SDGs present an ideal framework for an introductory level textbook because taken together, they integrate the “Three Es”—environment, economic development, and equity—that are the core definition of sustainability. This book introduces students to sustainability structured around the 17 UN SDGs. Through a global perspective, with attention given equally to how sustainability challenges the highest income countries of the Global North, as well as to the moderate- and low-income countries of the Global South, Benton-Short synthesizes basic environmental science, policy, and interdisciplinary perspectives while investigating key challenges to developing a more sustainable future through the SDG framework. Readers will easily tackle this complex set of topics through an accessible writing style, comprehensive scholarship, and diverse perspectives. Guided by a lush art program, complete with numerous maps, figures, and photos to enliven the presentation, students will develop a greater understanding of the important trends in sustainability in the twenty-first century. The broad arguments highlighted through numerous case studies and boxes prepare global citizens to grapple with the environmental, social, economic, and political challenges that face our collective future. Features of this exciting, brand-new text include: - Chapter opening learning objectives to guide students’ course goals - Helpful study aids such as key terms—bolded in the text and compiled both at the end of each chapter and in a comprehensive glossary - End-of-chapter questions for discussion and activities to promote active learning - A stunning art program, with detailed maps, figures, tables, and photos, to engage students as visual learners - Critical Perspectives and Expert Voice boxes to present the diverse perspectives in sustainability - Interconnections boxes to help students tie together ideas across the issues - Key Terms and Concepts and Understanding the Issue boxes to go in-depth on important topics - Making Progress and Solutions boxes that show students hopeful trends toward seemingly intractable problems - SDGs and the Law boxes that provide a legal and governance context.

Alternative Energy - Christopher A Simon - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

The renewable and alternative energy markets and energy policy have evolved rapidly in recent years. Although a rapidly expanding part of the nation’s energy portfolio, renewable energy will need to grow significantly if a dominant clean energy paradigm is to be achieved. In this fully revised and expanded third edition author Christopher Simon discusses the basic technical aspects of major renewable energy systems and technological developments and considers the impact of politics on energy policy using contemporary theories of public policy, as well as discussing the evolution of the social feasibility of renewable energy. Simon addresses the underlying rationale for alternative energies and how policymaking and innovation function in this arena. In-depth coverage of solar, wind, and geothermal energy, as well as other modern fuels, set the stage for the current challenges around energy storage, reforming the power grid, and artificial intelligence in energy markets. Fully revised to bring the discussion up to date through President Biden’s administration, this edition considers nuclear power developments and feasibility in the post-Fukushima policy environment and addresses current international commitment to renewable energy. Features of the Third Edition include: - New Chapter 8: Energy Storage Technology and the Automotive Industry - New Chapter 9: Reforming the Power Grid - New Chapter 10: Artificial Intelligence and Energy - Extensive figures, boxes, and photos to engage readers - Fully updated coverage of the legal, regulatory, and legislative context through the Biden administration

Brain-Based Teaching for All Subjects - Madlon T. Laster - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Brain-Based Teaching for All Subjects - Madlon T. Laster - Bog - Rowman & Littlefield - Plusbog.dk

Brain-Based Teaching for All Subjects describes cognitive instruction that builds on brain reactions in everyday life and explains how teachers lead students to see commonalities in examples of a particular concept. The common traits lead to a visual pattern or model of the concept, with language labels attached. Teachers can refer to the pattern in future classroom work as the topic is studied. Two patterns are especially influential: an event frame_a sort of empty comic strip that allows analysis of a story, historic event, or even a novel by visually representing actions of a person or character as the plot unfolds; and the culture box, which shows six concentric boxes representing the self or individual in the center, surrounded by other aspects of life, from family to economy. The book contains chapters on basic concepts with examples of visual patterns.
