Dorothy Sayers was a pioneer in many diverse fields, including the British tradition of detective fiction, religious radio drama, first-wave feminism, and the Classical Christian School movement—this volume explores all of these facets of her life and more. It is a compelling, dramatic, and occasionally very funny story of a remarkable life.

In Local Quantum Mechanics, contributors from both philosophy and physics develop the many worlds interpretation as a way to understand quantum mechanics, particularly how the many worlds interpretation avoids the apparent phenomenon of non-locality, thereby making quantum mechanics compatible with special relativity.

This book offers an innovative and comprehensive theory of private law as the law governing our relationships with one another in our capacity as private individuals rather than as citizens.

The Oxford Handbook of Ballet Pedagogy offers a comprehensive exploration of contemporary perspectives on teaching and learning ballet, emphasizing the embodied nature of dance and its role in shaping both the student sense of expression and development as an artist. The book positions ballet pedagogy as a dynamic and cross-disciplinary field that transcends traditional separation between practice and theory. It offers a holistic approach that integrates the whole body, identity, and well-being into the learning process. Through five thematic sections-focusing on the whole-dancer, embodied pedagogy, diverse teaching sites, syllabus construction, and ballet as praxis. The volume engages with critical issues such as belonging, access, rigor, syllabus, and excellence within pedagogical practices in the ballet learning space that move beyond the limitations of constructs such as race, gender, and disability. The book challenges entrenched pedagogical hierarchies, offering a vision for the

For more than a century, America's sports stadiums have evolved from modest, private ballparks into billion-dollar play-palaces for the rich-built increasingly on the backs of taxpayers. Government commitments to major-league venues are approaching $50 billion, and a looming wave of new construction threatens to double public outlays by the end of the next decade. Elected leaders justify the massive subsidies by arguing that stadiums are economic catalysts, despite overwhelming evidence that sports venues are unwise public investments. Why does this keep happening? The refrain is always the same: This one will be different. The Atlanta Braves's Truist Park in Cobb County, Georgia is the latest example. Marketed as a game-changing mixed-use development that would create a year-round economic hub, the project has fallen far short of its boosters' lofty projections-just like all the venues that came before it. In This One Will Be Different, sports economist J.C. Bradbury draws from decade

The first volume of the Mt. Lykaion Studies series introduces readers to the famous Arkadian sanctuaries of Zeus and Pan at Mt. Lykaion, a site renowned in antiquity as the birthplace of Zeus. First excavated in the late 19th and early 20th centuries by the Archaeological Society of Athens, the site has been the focus of renewed interest since 2004 under the Mt. Lykaion Excavation and Survey Project, a Greek-American synergasia. This volume offers an overview of the historical and contemporary campaigns, illustrating the site's immense importance from antiquity to the present through its archaeological, literary, and epigraphic evidence. A comprehensive geological study of Mt. Lykaion and the surrounding region reveals the impact of this dramatic environment on the site's development, a sacred landscape that continues to shape the activities and attitudes of residents and visitors today. The breadth of perspectives collected in this volume's nine chapters vividly illustrate the mytholo

The Oxford Handbook of Russian Poetry brings together forty original chapters by scholars, critics, and poets from across North America, Russia, and Europe, offering a wide-ranging account of the Russian poetic tradition from the early modern period to the present. Responding to evolving critical priorities and the expanded sense of Russian poetic practice in recent decades, the Handbook aims not to settle the canon but rather to model a range of approaches to poetic history. Chapters are attentive to rupture, reinvention, and literature's changing social and institutional conditions. In particular, the volume engages with an increasingly complex understanding of Russian twentieth-century literature-one that treats, separately and together, censored, uncensored, and 幦igr?writing, and that engages with multilingualism and rapidly shifting cultural boundaries. Collectively, the contributions consider texts both well-known and newly recovered, metropolitan and diasporic, official and unde

Ancient Macedonia is often synonymous with Alexander the Great. After all, his conquests stretched the Macedonian Empire thousands of miles wide, and during his reign Macedonia was without equal. Alexander and his father, Philip II, who raised Macedonia to superpower status, still dominate our perceptions of this ancient kingdom and empire. Macedonian kings before Philip and Alexander are often portrayed as their opposites--weak and ineffectual--but this book proves that this is a mistake. While Macedonia under the Argead Kings covers the reigns of Philip, Alexander, and his immediate successors, it takes an even closer look at what life was like in Macedonia before its most famous rulers. While the literary evidence speaks of Macedonia's internal disunity during this period, as well as its dynastic upheavals, it is important to note that the authors of this literature were often Greeks, who had very different perspectives of what their enemies, the Macedonians, were like.

A beautiful exploration of how plants have spread across the world, adapting to and shaping their environments From the earliest green shoots to dense tropical forests, discover how plants spread across the world to build our environment. Plants first emerged on a very different looking Earth 500 million years ago. As land masses moved, plants were brought together in fierce competition with one another or separated to continue their lives in very different conditions. On this evolutionary journey, they developed ingenious strategies to disperse and extend their range, and increase their diversity. Plants have populated almost every part of Earth's land surface - from tropical zones to cracks in city sidewalks - and have fundamentally shaped Earth's natural regions. Mapping the changing conditions and continents of the ancient world and the biomes of the modern one, Atlas of Botany explores how plants have overcome the challenges of survival, and how they have interacted with pollinato

One of three surviving collections of Latin bucolic poetry, the seven Eclogues transmitted under the name of Calpurnius Siculus are generally assigned to the reign of Nero, although the debate on dating continues, with proposals ranging between the later first and third centuries CE. Calpurnius follows Vergil's Eclogues as his main model, but reaches back to Theocritus for additional pastoral features, and the poems show the influences of later works of Vergil, Ovid, and other elegists. Two factors have made Calpurnius a "marginal" poet: the collection's lack of historical context and the status of bucolic poetry as a minor, discontinuous genre. This literary study embraces these factors as an opportunity for a de-historicized reading of Calpurnius by interpreting the poems closely and within the context of the bucolic tradition but without reference to any kind of contemporary context. In doing so, Yelena Baraz explores questions about the working of tradition in Latin poetry, but als

A Practical Approach to Trauma: Empowering Interventions helps clinicians develop effective therapeutic skills and provides guidelines for delivering trauma-focused and empowering interventions. Taking a practitioner's perspective, Priscilla Dass-Brailsford focuses on practical application to increase clinical understanding of extreme stress and violence. The psychological and behavioral consequences of trauma are viewed as expressions of pain and efforts to cope with unacceptable environmental demands and stressors. Responses to traumatic experiences are not necessarily viewed as pathological but instead grounded in cultural systems of meaning-making. Dass-Brailsford discusses how the practitioner's responsibility is to locate and utilize the strength and resilience inherent within individuals, families, and communities impacted by trauma to empower them toward healing and recovery. The author's practical, skill-building approach is taken from her many years of working in the trauma f

本書是社會學家歐文·戈夫曼學術生涯的代表作之一，1961年出版後即引發廣泛關注，不但為理解權力運作、身份建構及邊緣群體的真實處境提供了經典分析框架，更推動了全球精神衛生領域的“去機構化”運動。書中，戈夫曼將“擬劇論”從日常社交舞臺推向精神病院、監獄等極端制度環境，揭示了令人震驚的社會真相。在這些“全控機構”中，戈夫曼發現所謂“正常”與“瘋癲”的界限並非天然存在，而是由一套精密的制度體系建構和維持的。這些機構通過嚴苛的身份剝削手段——收繳個人物品、清除社會身份、集體管制、系統性羞辱——瓦解個體的自我認同，將一個個活生生的人納入標準化秩序中，重塑為溫順、沉默的“被收容者”。由此，機構的核心功能在於控制，而非對外宣稱的治癒或關懷。當名字被編號取代，當行為被病理化為“症狀”時，我們還能確信自己是“正常”的嗎？又該如何抵抗，哪怕只為一縷尊嚴的微光？本書從微觀層面撕碎了現代社會圍繞“正常”編織的迷思並發出拷問 ：究竟是那些被貼上“瘋子”標簽的人病了，還是這個急於將他們分類、隔離、改造的“健全世界”本身，陷入了一種更隱蔽的集體瘋狂？-----“時代症候”書系：《收容所——精神病人及其他被收容者的社會情境》Asylums: Essays on the Social Situation of Mental Patients and Other Inmates[美]歐文·戈夫曼 著 / 劉海龍、黃雅蘭、方惠 譯《人類世的馬克思——走向去增長的共產主義》（即出）Marx in the Anthropocene: Towards the Idea of Degrowth Communism[日]齋藤幸平 著 / 徐鼎鼎 譯《數字倦怠——斷聯時代見聞錄》（即出）Digital Lethargy: Dispatches from an Age of Disconnection[美]胡彤暉 著 / 於是 譯《努力玩樂——遊戲作為能動性的藝術》（即出）Games: Agency as Art[美]C. 氏·阮 著 / 胡馮彬 譯《自由是一種沒治的病》（即出）Freedom: A Disease Without Cure[斯洛文尼亞]斯拉沃熱·齊澤克 著 / 藍江 譯

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Say You'll Remember Me comes a beautiful, compelling novel that revels in laughter, friendship, and the messy choices life can throw our way.In everyone’s life, there’s a split-second decision that can change everything...For Larissa, it came when choosing who to ride home with after a concert. That night, she had no idea she’d met the perfect man. She and Chris are great friends, co-parenting a slightly unhinged rescue Yorkie, sharing their favorite books, and judging bread (pumpernickel for the win!). For the first time amid all her side hustles to scrape by, things finally feel easy.But she didn’t choose Chris to drive her home all those months ago—she went with his best friend, and he became her boyfriend. All Chris wants is for Larissa to be happy. Standing by on the sidelines is slowly killing him, but making a move would destroy someone else. How can something that feels so right be absolutely impossible?

At the turn of the twentieth century Colorado's coalfields were the site of the nation's most violent labor conflicts. The remote mountains were home to mining companies that provided workers and their families with supervised housing, education, health care, and stores. Resisting corporate control, workers deployed armed bands against their employers, leading to a pitched battle between the groups for control over the workplace. Efforts to defuse the situation, including strategies that had worked in other industries, all failed. In this book, Maria E. Montoya examines two key figures who practiced rival Progressive reforms for resolving these industrial conflicts. John D. Rockefeller Jr. used paternalism and philanthropy to promote the scientific management of his workers' professional and personal lives. Josephine Roche advocated for worker autonomy, collective bargaining, and government-backed labor protections. Both honed their Progressive ideals in New York City and transported t

Fifteen essays that offer inspiration, encouragement, and advice from accomplished writers with ADHD. A rising number of ADHD diagnoses, particularly among adults, is not only confirmed by medical studies and mainstream reporting but also borne out across social media and elsewhere among people who'd been privately coping with persistent, often inexpressible challenges. Many of the contributors to this collection can attest to how a later-in-life diagnosis radically demystified the patterns, impulses, and impasses that had affected their lives and their writing. The essays in Chaos, Creativity, Completion reflect the ways poets, novelists, memoirists, filmmakers, and others have come to understand and engage the relationship between their ADHD and their creative practices. These essays consider how writers can embrace rather than mask their neurodifference, offering multiple ways of finding writing practices that work for ADHD brains--including techniques that often look quite differ

In a small village, three sisters’ lives are shadowed by secrets that refuse to stay buried. For fans of Sarah Penner and Jessie Burton.

企業資源計劃(Enterprise Resource Planning，ERP)課程的特別之處在於，ERP與CAD、CAT等圖像處理、字處理等工具性軟件不一樣，其應用的難點並不僅僅在於是否能學會軟件本身的操作，而更在於使用者能否領會蘊含在軟件中的管理思想；ERP與一般的管理方式、方法又不一樣，因為它終究是通過計算機實現的，具有許多機器的特性。因此ERP要求學習和使用者既要具有管理者的視角和思維方式，瞭解人性的特點、學會與人打交道，又要具有工程師的視角和思維方式，瞭解機器的特點、學會與機器打交道。本教材的根本目標是要講清楚ERP的基本原理。但是對於ERP這樣實踐性很強的學科，原理必須通過實例來體現，因此，書中各章都穿插了許多軟件的實例和企業的應用案例，以便能夠幫助讀者建立起ERP領域技術和管理兩方面的感性認識，達到對原理真正領會的目的。本書分為3篇，共15章。前兩篇從基本原理和系統實施的角度，結合常見的軟件系統和大量成功或失敗的應用案例，全面、系統地介紹企業資源計劃(ERP)；第3篇為實驗指導。本書可作為高等學校本科信息管理、電子商務、工業工程、軟件工程、工商管理及相關專業高年級本科生的教材或教學參考書，建議前修課程為“管理信息系統”和“生產運作管理”；對於工業工程碩士(MEng in IE)、工商管理碩士(MBA)而言，本書也是一本不錯的參考書。
