Professor Bird presents a synthesis of the many approaches to the
study of a central featuer of modern life - the city, including its
distant past and its future. He sees centrality as a mental
projection on to space, and discusses the concept in relation to
three types of its manifestation in spatial terms: the city as
centre of a tributary region; the centres and central areas of
cities themselves; and the city considered as a centre or gateway
for other distant regions, often overseas. This book should do much
to unravel the funamental similarities between cities of the world
while recognizing the myriad variations upon a common theme. This
book was first published in 1977.

Whether you are currently teaching or training to teach the primary
computing curriculum, you need to know what effective teaching of
computing in primary schools actually looks like. Written for non
specialists and trainees, this book uses exemplar primary computing
lessons as a starting point for developing subject knowledge. It's
a unique but tried and tested approach to developing your computing
subject knowledge alongside your teaching practice. The current
computing curriculum is explored in manageable chunks and there is
no "scary" tech speak; everything is explained clearly and
accessibly. You will find example lesson plans alongside every
element of the curriculum that can be adapted to suit different
year groups and different schools. This resourceful guide inspires
an approach to teaching computing that is about creativity and
encouraging problem solving using technology as a tool. NEW TO THIS
EDITION: Updated throughout and includes information on new apps
and other resources for teaching and a brand new chapter on
teaching with tablets in the primary classroom. This book is part
of the Lessons in Teaching series and includes additional online
resources on its accompanying website.
