Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Avoiding both over-simplification and jargon-riddled complexity,
this book is an invaluable, straightforward guide to participatory
research for you and your fellow practitioners working with
community groups and organisations. The book offers a route map for
co-research projects with groups and communities, taking you
through each stage of the participatory research process, from
planning a project to sharing the findings. Keeping in mind
imperatives such as engagement and voice, the book explores how to
carry out research in ways that are meaningful for communities.
This book includes valuable resources such as reflection points,
tasks and further reading lists, offering support to practitioners
to plan and undertake participatory research projects with
confidence.
The terms 'wellbeing', 'empowerment' and 'agency' are common
parlance in policy and practice with children, young people and
families (CYPF), yet are often misused or not fully understood.
Further, there is a disconnect between these abstract concepts and
tangible practice with CYPF. This book bridges the theory-practice
divide, offering a clear and definitive guide to concepts and
practical ways to develop CYPF wellbeing. It examines the concept
of wellbeing and its intrinsic relationship to social justice both
theoretically and through case study material, and locates these
practices within critical pedagogy. The book highlights a range of
practice with CYPF of various ages, in formal and non-formal
learning situations, engaged in a range of different programmes
including learning, reduction from offending, social action and
tackling targeted needs. Each chapter highlights relevant policy,
research and practice examples to ensure that the book is relevant
to a variety of readers. This book will benefit students and
practitioners who work with young people to realise wellbeing and
to embed critical pedagogy in their practice. It also provides a
frame of reference to critically engage in policy analysis and is
essential reading for social workers, teachers, police support
officers and anyone working to support CYPF to become empowered.

Almost a century ago Vassar professor Lucy Maynard Salmon
(1853-1927) started down an intellectual path that made her one of
the most innovative historians of all time. Her historical method
relied on extensive use of the documents of everyday life. In
class, for example, she surprised her students with laundry lists,
grocery receipts, and newspapers, and asked them to interpret these
"ephemera" as historical documents. What did the laundry receipts
tell about those who used such services? About those who ran such
establishments? About systems of domestic service? Business
organization? In short, Salmon recentered history from narrative to
methodology, from story to apparatus. By examining subjects that we
associate with material culture she anticipated current practices
by decades. Salmon was modern in her concerns and her methods, and
a feminist in both her interests and her approach. The book
contains a cross-section of her essays, including selections from
her ground-breaking study "Domestic Service" and her well-known
essays "History in a Back Yard" and "Main Street" in which she
reads the everyday environment of garden and city in historical
terms. Also included are her remarkable essay on the architectural
organization of her kitchen and a hitherto unpublished essay on her
former professor, Woodrow Wilson, that describes him in vivid terms
as an "autophotographer." Salmon's modernism will startle those who
have not read her before.
