Seriality and Texts for Young People is a collection of thirteen
scholarly essays about series and serial texts directed to children
and youth, each of which begins from the premise that a basic
principle of seriality is repetition.
This open university reader is a wide-ranging interdisciplinary
collection of material from primary sources, illustrating the
relationship between cultural change and religious belief in
sixteenth-century Europe. It contains more than eighty extracts
drawn from a variety of genres including political, religious,
philosophical and legal writing, diaries, letters, plays, poems and
fiction. Some have never previously been published, others have not
been reprinted since their original appearance in the sixteenth
century, and a number are translated into modern English for the
first time.
Culture and Belief in Europe 1450 - 1600' includes writing from
such renowned thinkers as Erasmus, Luther, Machiavelli, and Sir
Thomas More, besides that of lesser-known authors. Works of
literature also feature extensively, and writings from Cervantes,
Rabelais, Edmund Spenser, and Sir Philip Sidney amongst many others
are all to be found here.
A general introduction describes the anthology's central aim - to
explore aspects of the interrelationship between the politics,
religion and writing of the period. The book is divided into eight
thematic sections.
Spelling in the extracts has been sensitively modernized
throughout, and the editors provide a headnote and appropriate
explanatory annotation for each item.

AN EFFECTIVE STRATEGY FOR SAFE DESIGN IN ENGINEERING AND
CONSTRUCTION Practically and efficiently implement the Construction
(Design and Management) Regulations in any project In An Effective
Strategy for Safe Design, safety and risk professionals David
England and Dr Andy Painting provide a comprehensive exploration of
the design process, from initial idea to the validation of the
product in service, from a product and project safety perspective.
In that context, the authors show how the appropriate
implementation of the requirements of the Construction (Design and
Management) Regulations 2015 can not only improve health and safety
on a project but can also improve the project's output as well as
offering savings in both capital and operational expenditure.
Readers will discover how the seemingly complex matters of
regulation and risk management can be practically applied to
projects via examples, illustrations, and real-world references.
They will find out how safety regulation, standards, and
initiatives all converge on the same goal--the safest output from
any given project. The book achieves three primary goals: To
improve the understanding and implementation of the Construction
(Design and Management) Regulations 2015 To reduce errors during
the design process via the effective implementation of design
management strategy To embed the concept of safety in design
Perfect for designers, design managers and supervisors, project
managers, surveyors, and insurers, An Effective Strategy for Safe
Design is also an invaluable addition to the libraries of principal
designers, specifiers, and building control officers.
