This book explores the distinct approaches of conversation analysis
(CA) and cultural-historical theory to investigations of childhood
storytelling with children aged 15 months to nine years. The
authors draw on a rich set of data that depict children’s
interactions with parents, teachers and peers as they talk together
after having read stories, as they recount their experiences, as
they enact stories through play, and as they participate in school
activities in science and in literacy tasks. The book demonstrates
the matters that concern CA and cultural-historical theory and
explore in what ways comparisons can work to inform research design
to understand how far the boundaries of approaches can be
stretched, and the challenges in attempting to do so. In this
process the authors focus on adding to knowledge about children’s
rich interactional competencies and development as they tell
stories, and on providing research-based evidence for parent,
teacher and teacher educator practices.

This book is a restless chronology of works by Australian-born,
internationally exhibiting artist Richard Dunn (b. 1944) who
explores the contemporary potential of art with full awareness of
its modernist heritage. Thinking Pictures includes Dunn's own
foreword and notes on his work, providing an insight into his
thinking, of which this book is an illuminating, partial archive.
It reveals how Dunn's visually seductive and speculative works
explore the perception and interpretation of the social and
historical context of art. Dunn uses a variety of materials and
formal orientations—photography, realist painting, abstract
constructions, filmic montage and digital techniques,
installations, light and sound—as strategies to interact with and
subvert conventional styles of image-making to reveal something new
and current. Dunn seeks to engage us in his exploration of how we
perceive the particularities of place, including history,
architecture, and ideas, bringing together the personal and the
global.
