Living Architecture Living Cities Soul-Nourishing Sustainability

Living Architecture Living Cities Soul-Nourishing Sustainability

It’s widely accepted that our environment is in crisis. Less widely recognized is that three quarters of environmental damage is due to cities – the places where most of us live. As this powerful new book elucidates global sustainability is therefore directly dependent on urban design. In Living Architecture Living Cities Christopher Day and Julie Gwilliam move beyond the current emphasis on technological change. They argue that eco-technology allows us to continue broadly as before and only defers the impending disaster. In reality most negative environmental impacts are due to how we live and the things we buy. Such personal choices often result from dissatisfaction with our surroundings. As perceived environment has a direct effect on attitudes and motivations improving this can achieve more sustainable lifestyles more effectively than drastic building change – with its notorious performance-gap limitations. As it’s in places that our inner feelings and material reality interact perceived environment is place-based. Ultimately however as the root cause of unsustainability is attitude real change requires moving from the current focus on buildings and technology to an emphasis on the non-material. Featuring over 400 high quality illustrations this is essential reading for anyone who believes in the value and power of good design. Christopher Day’s philosophy will continue to inspire students with an interest in sustainable architecture urban planning and related fields. | Living Architecture Living Cities Soul-Nourishing Sustainability

Written soon before and in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic when theatre ground to a halt and spectatorship was suspended this book takes stock of spectatorship as theatre’s living archive and affirms its value in the midst of the present crisis.

The Art of Living Foundation Spirituality and Wellbeing in the Global Context

The Art of Living Foundation Spirituality and Wellbeing in the Global Context

The Hindu-derived meditation movement The Art of Living (AOL) founded in 1981 by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar in Bangalore has grown into a global organization which claims presence in more than 150 countries. Stephen Jacobs presents the first comprehensive study of AOL as an important transnational movement and an alternative global spirituality. Exploring the nature and characteristics of spirituality in the contemporary global context Jacobs considers whether alternative spiritualities are primarily concerned with individual wellbeing and can simply be regarded as another consumer product. The book concludes that involvement in movements such as AOL is not necessarily narcissistic but can foster a sense of community and inspire altruistic activity. | The Art of Living Foundation Spirituality and Wellbeing in the Global Context

Practising Immanence Living with Theory and Environmental Education

Practising Immanence Living with Theory and Environmental Education

Practising Immanence: Living with Theory and Environmental Education makes creative contributions to both qualitative inquiry and environmental education by exploring how each of these ideas seep and fuse into one another creating a space where methodology becomes pedagogy and where each of these is already always environmental: indivisible with life. Clarke’s energising and innovative approach offers a challenge to conventional research practices and shows ways in which inquiry can be done differently. Drawing on new materialisms affect theory and the practical philosophy of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari the book details the PhD journey of the author merging stories and theory (and stories of theory) in the production of eight ‘haecceities’ – a philosophical concept which prioritises the thisness of a thing or event. This move allows a novel methodological approach whereby the haecceities act as sites of variation on the events of the book: the self as unstable and posthuman; the environment as everything (immanent) rather than as an overly romantic or a green version of nature; and the tensions that these moves create for ethical orientations in education inquiry and life in the Anthropocene. Practising Immanence brings theory to life through a diffractively critical style and a unique approach to environmental pedagogic practice. This radical and vitalising book will be of interest to those inspired to explore environmental problems and inquiry with each other and to those drawn to creative-relational narrative embodied and post-qualitative approaches to research. | Practising Immanence Living with Theory and Environmental Education
