Best known as the Saducismus triumphatus (1681), Joseph Glanvill's
book on witchcraft is among the most frequently published from the
seventeenth century, and its arguments for the reality of diabolic
witchcraft elicited passionate responses from critics and
supporters alike. Davies untangles the intricate development of
this text and explores how Glanvill's roles as theologian,
philosopher and advocate for the Royal Society of London converge
in its pages. Glanvill's broader philosophical method and unique
approach to the supernatural provide a case study that enables the
exploration of the interaction between the rise of experimental
science and changing attitudes to witchcraft.
This book captures the now burgeoning research field of early
childhood education for sustainability (ECEfS) and comprises
insights from an ever-widening and diverse pool of researchers, who
are promoting, engaging, and explaining the latest ECEfS research
in the light of local, national, and United Nations global policy
directives. With the increasing urgency of global climate
disruptions, resource depletions, and biodiversity losses alongside
greater human dislocation, the international scope of research and
theory in this book provides a comprehensive guide to the role of
sustainability in early childhood education, at a time when it is
needed more than ever. Elliott, AErlemalm-Hagser, and Davis have
brought together a collection of studies that offer new insights
and approaches to ECEfS which challenge dominant narratives
surrounding early childhood education and sustainability, including
topics such as: how diverse worldviews and cultures challenge
perceptions of sustainability; how bold national early education
policies and urgent shifts in teacher education are imperative for
driving transformative practices; and, how ECEfS curriculum and
pedagogy can be incorporated successfully into early years
settings. This book will both inspire researchers and more deeply
enable early years' educators to practise sustainability with
children, and so will be of great interest to scholars, lecturers,
and researchers, as well as undergraduate and postgraduate
students, across the increasingly intersecting fields of
sustainability and early childhood education.

Sustainability is a global issue that urgently needs addressing,
and for which the most serious consequences are for children and
future generations. This insightful research text tackles one of
the most significant contemporary issues of our times - the nexus
between society and environment - and how early childhood education
can contribute to sustainable living. By offering international and
multidisciplinary research perspectives on Early Childhood
Education for Sustainability, each chapter explores and
investigates the complex topic of sustainability and its
relationship to early childhood education. A particular emphasis
that runs through this text is young children as empowered
citizens, capable of both contributing to and creating change for
sustainability. The chapter authors work from, or are aligned with,
a transformative education paradigm that suggests the
socio-constructivist frameworks currently underpinning Early
Childhood Education require reframing in light of the social
transformations necessary to address humanity's unsustainable,
unjust and unhealthy living patterns. This research text is
designed to be provocative and challenging; in so doing it seeks to
encourage exploration of current understandings about Early
Childhood Education for Sustainability, offers new dimensions for
more deeply informed practice, and proposes avenues for further
research in this field.
