Identifying the origins of innovation and project management, this
unique Handbook explains why and how the two fields have grown and
developed as separate disciplines, highlighting how and why they
are now converging. It explores the theoretical and practical
connections between the management of innovation and projects,
examining the close relationship between the disciplines. Chapters
introduce new research examining how organisations manage
innovative projects to compete in global markets and tackle some of
the immense economic, social and environmental challenges facing
societies in the 21st century. Leading scholars in the field
examine the management of innovative projects in various forms and
across diverse contexts, including R&D, new product
development, agile, collaboration, trust and ambidexterity. The
Handbook outlines efforts to cross-fertilise ideas from innovation
and project management, share and create new concepts, and borrow
theories from other disciplines to assist empirical research and
develop a more integrated research agenda, offering practical
guidance on how to manage innovative projects in real-world
settings. Comprehensive and invaluable, this Handbook is a critical
read for innovation management and project management scholars and
students. Practitioners in both fields interested in developing
their professional skills and acquiring thought leadership in a
converging field will also benefit greatly from reading this.

Now in its fifth edition, the best-selling text Mathematical
Knowledge for Primary Teachers provides trainee teachers with clear
information about the fundamental mathematical ideas taught in
primary schools. With rigorous and comprehensive coverage of all
the mathematical knowledge primary teachers need, the text goes
beyond rules and routines to help readers deepen their
understanding of mathematical ideas and increase their confidence
in teaching these ideas. The book has been updated to incorporate
changes in the National Curriculum and the associated tests. In
addition, Chapter 1 has been expanded to discuss mathematical
understanding in the light of the challenges posed by the current
changes. These include the re-introduction of traditional
calculation methods for multiplication and division, the early
coverage of abstract fractions calculations and much more. Features
include: 'Check' questions to test the reader's understanding
'Challenges' to increase teachers' confidence and stretch their
mathematical abilities 'Links with the classroom' to emphasise the
relevance of ideas to the classroom context Straightforward
coverage from theory to practice for all aspects of the Mathematics
Framework. The book is accompanied by eResources which contains
further visual activities and support, designed to scaffold and
support the reader's own understanding. Essential reading for all
practising and trainee primary teachers, this book is ideal for
those who wish to increase their mathematical understanding and
confidence in presenting mathematics in the classroom.
Oral problems are common in cancer patients. They can be a part of
the disease itself; they can develop as a result of treatment; they
can accompany other symptoms and present as a comorbidity; and they
can even first present after the original disease itself has been
cured. Oral symptoms can be complex to treat, both preventing
administration of potentially life-saving treatment, and also
directly causing additional life-threatening complications.
However, many symptoms can be treated, and lead to tremendous
relief of suffering for the patient. Oral complications of cancer
and its management is the first book to focus on this unique set of
symptoms, and provides an international, multi-professional
reference with up to date, evidence-based, clinically relevant
advice. It covers topics such as oral anatomy and physiology, oral
assessment and oral hygiene, as well as more common oral
complications of cancer and its treatment. Surgical, radiotherapy
and chemotherapy side effects are detailed in all of the chapters
whilst specific problems are discussed in detail in separate
chapters. Other chapters focus on oral infections, and major oral
symptoms experienced by patients with cancer. In addition there are
chapters addressing the needs of specific groups of patient (e.g.
paediatric patients, patients with advanced cancer), and the health
economic impact of oral complications.
This book should become the complete reference source for the wide
multi-disciplinary team involved in treating the cancer patient
with oral problems; this includes oncologists (both medical and
clinical), oncology nurses, oral medicine specialists, palliative
care physicians and nurses, special care dentists, special care
dental nurses/hygienists, and therapy radiographers.
This is the fifth book in an international, multi-contributed
series aimed at providing practical, clinical guidance on how to
deal with difficult symptoms related to specific cancer sites. In
this volume the Editors bring together first-rate palliative care
with oncological treatment for patients with head and neck cancer.
Head and neck cancer is one of the most frightening and distressing
cancers for patients and their families as it affects appearance,
the ability to speak, and the ability to eat. Pain which is
difficult to treat, infection, and disfiguring surgery with wounds
that often do not heal, are common accompaniments of advanced
disease. In addition, psychological distress, loneliness, and
isolation are often experienced by patients. Head and neck cancer
is not that common but, when it does occur, it very often needs
specialist help from palliative care and hospice clinicians. There
is little written on this subject and this book provides a
comprehensive, practical guide that draws together all the
information in an easily accessible format. It is an essential
reference for on the ward, or before going to a home visit. The
Palliative Care Consultations series is primarily aimed at those
individuals working in an acute hospital cancer centre and/or
tertiary referral centre. Books are designed to give the busy
clinician advice on clinical problems, both those rarely
encountered and those that are very common, but difficult. The
volumes are site specific and each volume encompasses a review of
the current oncological or haemato-oncological management of
advanced disease with symptom control advice. These volumes give
clinicians excellent advice on symptom control in the context of
palliative care. The books are also of use and interest to other
professions working in acute hospitals.

Invisible as the seas and oceans may be for so many of us, life as
we know it is almost always connected to, and constituted by,
activities and occurrences that take place in, on and under our
oceans. The Routledge Handbook of Ocean Space provides a first port
of call for scholars engaging in the 'oceanic turn' in the social
sciences, offering a comprehensive summary of existing trends in
making sense of our water worlds, alongside new, agenda-setting
insights into the relationships between society and the 'seas
around us'. Accordingly, this ambitious text not only attends to a
growing interest in our oceans, past and present; it is also
situated in a broader spatial turn across the social sciences that
seeks to account for how space and place are imbricated in
socio-cultural and political life. Through six clearly structured
and wide-ranging sections, The Routledge Handbook of Ocean Space
examines and interrogates how the oceans are environmental,
historical, social, cultural, political, legal and economic spaces,
and also zones where national and international security comes into
question. With a foreword and introduction authored by some of the
leading scholars researching and writing about ocean spaces,
alongside 31 further, carefully crafted chapters from established
as well as early career academics, this book provides both an
accessible guide to the subject and a cutting-edge collection of
critical ideas and questions shaping the social sciences today.
This handbook brings together the key debates defining the 'field'
in one volume, appealing to a wide, cross-disciplinary social
science and humanities audience. Moreover, drawing on a range of
international examples, from a global collective of authors, this
book promises to be the benchmark publication for those interested
in ocean spaces, past and present. Indeed, as the seas and oceans
continue to capture world-wide attention, and the social sciences
continue their seaward 'turn', The Routledge Handbook of Ocean
Space will provide an invaluable resource that reveals how our
world is a water world.
From the squares of Spain to indigenous land in Canada, protest
camps are a tactic used around the world. Since 2011 they have
gained prominence in recent waves of contentious politics, deployed
by movements with wide-ranging demands for social change. Through a
series of international and interdisciplinary case studies from
five continents, this topical collection is the first to focus on
protest camps as unique organisational forms that transcend
particular social movements' contexts. Whether erected in a park in
Istanbul or a street in Mexico City, the significance of political
encampments rests in their position as distinctive spaces where
people come together to imagine alternative worlds and articulate
contentious politics, often in confrontation with the state.
Written by a wide range of experts in the field the book offers a
critical understanding of current protest events and will help
better understanding of new global forms of democracy in action.
A Critique of Pure Teaching Methods and the Case of Synthetic
Phonics examines how research into the effectiveness of teaching
methods can and should relate to what takes place in the classroom.
The discussion brings to light some important features of the way
we classify teaching activities. The classifications are unlike
those we use in natural science - for instance, how we classify
drug dosages. This point has very important implications for what
should be considered the appropriate relationships between
educational research and classroom practice. Andrew Davis applies
the results of this discussion to the teaching of early reading,
focussing in particular on the approach known as synthetic phonics.
He provides a philosophical investigation into the nature of
reading, and into the concepts that feature in approaches to
teaching it, such as the idea of building words from letter sounds,
the nature of words themselves and reading for meaning. He
concludes with a discussion of why this matters so much, reflecting
on how stories and books can be part of a child's emerging identity
within the family. He explores how values of family life should be
weighed against the importance of achievements in school, and
argues for the claim that school reading policies of certain kinds
may have a destructive impact if they are felt to trump the private
interests of children and their families.
