This is the first collection dedicated to the use of
intersectionality as theory, framework and methodology in
criminological research. It draws together contemporary British
research to demonstrate the value of intersectionality theory in
both familiar and innovative applications, including race, gender,
class, disability, sexual orientation and age. Experts explore a
range of experiences relating to harm, hate crimes and offending,
and demonstrate the impacts of oppression on complex personal
identities that do not fit neatly in homogenised communities.
Challenging conventional perspectives, it positions
intersectionality firmly into the mainstream of criminology.

The classic guide to understanding children's mental development is
now updated and better than ever
Hailed by parents and educators, "Your Child's Growing Mind" is a
window into the fascinating process of brain development and
learning. It looks at the roots of emotion, intelligence, and
creativity, translating the most current scientific research into
practical suggestions for parents and teachers.
Dr. Healy also addresses academic learning, offering countless
suggestions for how parents can help without pushing. She explains
the building blocks of reading, writing, spelling, and mathematics
and shows how to help youngsters of all ages develop motivation,
attention, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
Using the science of childhood development, she also examines
today's hot issues, including learning disabilities, ADHD,
influences of electronic media, and the hazards of forced early
learning. From infancy to adolescence, this is the perfect guide to
helping and enjoying a youngster's mental, personal, and academic
growth.
