"Advances in the Study of Behavior" was initiated over 40 years
ago to serve the increasing number of scientists engaged in the
study of animal behavior. That number is still expanding. This
volume makes another important "contribution to the development of
the field" by presenting theoretical ideas and research to those
studying animal behavior and to their colleagues in neighboring
fields. "Advances in the Study of Behavior" is now available online
at ScienceDirect full-text online from volume 30 onward.

The Oxford Handbook of the American Revolution introduces scholars,
students and generally interested readers to the formative event in
American history. In thirty-three individual essays, by
thirty-three authorities on the Revolution, the Handbook provides
readers with in-depth analysis of the Revolution's many sides,
ranging from the military and diplomatic to the social and
political; from the economic and financial, to the cultural and
legal. Its cast of characters ranges far, including ordinary
farmers and artisans, men and women, free and enslaved African
Americans, Indians, and British and American statesmen and military
leaders. Its geographic scope is equally broad. The Handbook offers
readers an American Revolution whose geo-political and military
impact ranged from the West Indies to the Mississippi Valley; from
the British Isles to New England and from Nova Scotia to Florida.
The American Revolution of the Handbook is, simply put, an event
that far transcended the boundaries of what was to become the
United States. In addition to a breadth of subject matter, the
Handbook offers a broad range of interpretive and methodological
approaches. Its authors include social historians, historians of
politics and institutions, cultural historians, historians of
diplomacy, imperial historians, ethnohistorians, and historians of
gender and sexuality. Instead of privileging a single or even
several interpretive perspectives, the Handbook attempts to capture
the full scope of current revolutionary-era scholarship. Nothing
comparable has been published in decades.

Advances in Pediatrics reviews the most current practices in
pediatrics. A distinguished editorial board, led by Dr. Carol
Berkowitz, identifies key areas of major progress and controversy
and invites expert pediatricians to contribute original articles
devoted to these topics. These insightful overviews bring concepts
to a clinical level and explore their everyday impact on patient
care. Topics such as fetal diagnosis and surgical intervention,
updates in pharmacology, and fatty liver disease are represented,
highlighting the most current and relevant information in the
field.
This book is a Festschrift for Emeritus Professor Stephen Kemmis,
who has a long and eminent career as an educational researcher and
academic spanning over 40 years. His work in curriculum,
evaluation, critical practice, action research and practice theory
has been influential across all continents of the world. The book
examines critical perspectives on educational practice and the
participatory nature of action research, including practitioner
research particularly as undertaken by teachers in schools.
Including vignettes from Kemmis' colleagues and mentors, it draws
on contributions from a range of academics whose scholarship has
been inspired, influenced and initiated by his work. The chapters
stem from a range of countries, including Australia, Canada,
Finland, weden, the United Kingdom, United States of America, and
Trinidad and Tobago - a testimony to the enduring and global legacy
of Kemmis' scholarship. Contributing authors include leading
educational research scholars, indigenous elders from Australia,
and community leaders concerned with environmental sustainability.
The concluding focus of this book turns towards practice theory.
Kemmis' later work led to the development of the theory of practice
architectures and gave rise to the development of the theory of
ecologies of practices in education. Research drawing on the theory
of practice architectures and ecologies of practices resulted in
the leading text "Changing practices, changing education" (Kemmis,
Wilkinson, Edwards-Groves, Hardy, Grootenboer & Bristol, 2014,
Springer) that reports on an Australian investigation of the
ecological relationship between student learning, teaching,
professional learning, leading and researching practices.This
theory is now being applied to study practices across a wide range
of international contexts, sites and disciplines including early
childhood, school education, university education, vocational
education and training, community environment, indigenous cultural
sustainability and health.
