The Life Eclectic is a stunning interiors book that celebrates the
individuality of eclectic decorating styles through 15 homes of
creatives from around the world. Featuring homes of the world's
most well-respected creatives, including Studio MacLean, Manfredi
della Gherardesca and Martin Brudnizki, The Life Eclectic is a
celebration of individuality, and embracing the joy that fluidity
in taste can bring. How often have you leafed through an interiors
book and wondered how you might be able to recreate the eclectic,
joyful and chic style of famed designers, when your mis-match
belongings seem to juxtapose in all the wrong ways? The Life
Eclectic is an interiors book that through carefully selected case
studies of homes from the UK, US, Australia, France and Denmark,
shows how highly regarded designers, artists, gallerists and
writers curate their treasured (and varied) possessions to glorious
effect.
The Cost of Electricity is an essential tool for any researcher or
practitioner seeking to establish the economic and environmental
cost of power generation, and thereby to analyse the economic
feasibility of power systems. Chapters cover capital cost, fuel
cost, levelised cost, subsidies and tariffs, lifetime emission
analysis, net energy analysis, traditional generation costs and
renewable generation costs. The work is based on published analyses
of generation costs and generation cost predictions from trusted
organisations such as the US Energy Information Administration and
the IEA. Chapters proceed in a logical manner through cost factors
before concluding with the current and future cost of electricity
generation.
This book provides practical help and guidance for non-native
English-speaking higher education lecturers faced with the need to
deliver lectures and seminars in English. It builds on the authors'
years of experience as researchers and teacher trainers in the area
of English Medium Instruction (EMI), combining practical advice and
research findings with useful case studies from different global
settings, including Australia, China, Hong Kong, Slovakia, Spain,
the UK and the USA, and a range of subject areas, such as
philosophy, mathematics and genetics. The authors present an
overview of what generally happens when university teachers make
the transition to teaching in English. After dispelling some common
myths and setting out priorities, Ruth Breeze and Carmen Sancho
Guinda move on to explain how practitioners can prepare to give
lectures and interact with both local and international students
effectively in English, tackling difficult issues, such as
encouraging participation, promoting creativity and critical
thinking, and evaluating written student work. The final chapters
address good practices in EMI, proposing ways to achieve excellence
in global settings.
This interdisciplinary collection explores how cinema calls into
question its own frame of reference and, at the same time, how its
form becomes the matter of its thought. Building on the axiom
(cherished by philosophers of cinema from Epstein to Deleuze) that
cinema is a medium that thinks in conjunction with its spectators,
this book examines how various forms of the cinematic rethink and
redraw the terrain of traditional disciplines, thereby enabling
different modes of thought and practice. Areas under consideration
by a range of leading academics and practitioners include
architecture, science, writing in a visual field, event-theory and
historiography.
To do feminism and to be a feminist in higher education is to
repeat oneself: to insist on gender equality as more than
institutional incorporation and diversity auditing, to insert
oneself into and against neoliberal measures, and to argue for
nuanced intersectional feminist analysis and action. This book
returns to established feminist strategies for taking up academic
space, re-thinking how feminists inhabit the university and pushing
back against institutional failures. The authors assert the
academic career course as fundamental to understanding how feminist
educational journeys, collaborations and cares and ways of knowing
stretch across and reconstitute academic hierarchies,
collectivising and politicising feminist career successes and
failures. By prioritising interruptions, the book navigates through
feminist methods of researcher reflexivity, autoethnography and
collective biography: in doing so, moving from feminist identity to
feminist practice and repeating the potential of queer feminist
interruptions to the university and ourselves.
