This book discusses the role and impact of ‘Public
Criminology’. It brings together a collection of key
scholars who have been at the fore of empirical and practice work
in relation to understanding how ‘Public Criminology’ can
engender academic activism. Split into two parts, it focusses
on academic activism and research methodologies, and public
criminology and pedagogical practice. It includes chapters on a
range of topics including Inside-Out teaching, it discusses
the role of social scientists and stepping outside of
established research practices, and how students, the public
and children can be engaged in criminological learning and issues
to become agents of social change. It includes a reflection
on how ‘Public Criminology’ has developed both in the UK and
USA. It speaks to students, researchers and academics
alike involved in teaching and learning within the discipline of
Criminology and those who wish to evaluate practice and
ensure their interventions have impact on commissioners and
policymakers.

One day while sitting on a park bench, Mark was asked by an old
man, Why do you do what you do? Why do you work where you work or
live where you live? Whether we agree or not, life really is about
a series of paths and decisions whereby even one small change can
alter our lives forever. We usually want to blame others, including
God, for our decisions. Only by examining the paths we have taken
can we really see where were at! It is only when we look deep
within ourselves we discover that as writers, singers, musicians,
interior decorators, or even truck drivers, we all have gifts!
Having them is not to question; rather, it is WHAT WE DO WITH THEM
that really matters! Wherever your passions lie, you can erase your
doubts and restore your joy. Just imagine yourself on a park bench]

We don’t talk a lot about sin these days. But maybe we should. The Puritans sure did—because they understood sin’s deceptive power and wanted to root it out of their lives. Shouldn’t we want the same?
Though many books have been written on the “doctrine of sin,” few are as practical and applicable as this one. In Knowing Sin, Mark Jones puts his expertise in the Puritans to work by distilling the vast wisdom of our Christian forebears into a single volume that summarizes their thought on this vital subject. The result isn’t a theological tome to sit on your shelf and gather dust, but a surprisingly relevant book to keep by your bedside and refer to again and again.
You’ll come to understand topics like:
- Sin’s Origin
- Sin’s Grief
- Sin’s Thoughts
- Sin’s Temptations
- Sin’s Misery
- Sin’s Secrecy
- and of course . . . Sin’s Defeat!
None of us is free from the struggle with sin. The question isn’t whether we’re sinful, it’s what we’re doing about it. Thanks be to God, there is a path to overcoming sin. And the first step on that path to victory is knowing what we’re up against. Start Knowing Sin today!
Young Angela wondered if she would live to see tomorrow as her
abuser held her head under the water at the pond in the field
behind her home. She used to feel safe here-fishing, chasing frogs,
or just walking with her dog. Victoria was very afraid of her
stepfather. Every time he told her to get in the car with him, she
knew she would have to endure another incident of sexual abuse. She
tried numerous times to tell her mother, but her mother was afraid
to deal with the situation, choosing to live in denial and allowing
Victoria to live in pain and anger. In "From Victims to Victors, "
author Mark Jones shares these and other stories of abuse from
victims to whom he has ministered. He tells these stories of
sexual, emotional, verbal, physical, and spousal abuse to call
attention to this rampant problem in today's society.Jones points
the way to healing and restoration through biblical principles. He
makes it clear that a move of God's hand can deliver victims from
the power of Satan and restore them to powerful, victorious living.
The hymn of Digitalization is nothing new: We must encourage the
creation of new apps. We must develop AI in order to prevail among
international competition. Technology's advance will halt climate
change and let robots do the dumb stuff for us. Our faith in
technology is powerful because it has saved us in the past. The
Almighty Machine shows us technology's flip side. The things that
once powered us toward a brighter tomorrow are already undermining
our quality of life. The data stream has shattered our
concentration, human relationships have been reduced to a menu of
emojis, constant surveillance has nullified much of our privacy,
and the development of AI could be the beginning of the end for us.
We are becoming the casualties of our own success. Pekka Vahvanen's
bristling and timely critique, deftly translated by Mark Jones,
throws doubt on the necessity of technological development in a
world saturated in tech. The Almighty Machine presents an important
question: Does progress no longer make us happier?

Heritage Science is emerging as a discipline that brings together
chemists, physicists, microbiologists, conservation scientists,
archaeologists and conservators. Its scope, precise boundaries and
the interfaces between its component disciplines may be in a state
of flux but, above all, its interdisciplinary nature offers
understanding of the causes, control and protection of heritage
from ever-present environmental challenges. In particular, the
activities of microbes play a central part in shaping the natural
world of our planet but this awesome power constitutes a serious
threat to the integrity of our most precious art, heritage
artefacts, monuments and cultural treasures. Heritage artefacts
that have been recovered from water, or that exist near the sea in
maritime conditions, pose special conservation problems due in main
to the combined effect of microbial activities and
physical/chemical assaults that the environment can offer. This
book is a result of the invited and updated papers from HMS2005:
Microbes, Monuments and Maritime Materials and forms a
comprehensive volume that addresses key topical areas of heritage
science and discusses the threats to a wide range of heritage
materials and monuments by biological and chemical agents of decay.
Key features of the book include: " Up-to-date summaries on the
conservation of internationally-important artefacts and monuments "
Clear outline of molecular techniques to identify microbes in
environmental heritage samples " Wide range of case studies
covering wood, stone, cave and cave paintings " Contributions
presented as fully referenced research publications giving useful
technical details and identification of areas for future study "
Informs conservators about the threats from microbes to a range of
materials " Extensive range of case studies of important world
heritage artefacts and monuments as well as an overview of in situ
preservation of historic ships " Provides background knowledge on
the use and application of modern analytical techniques in
conservation " Contains detailed information on molecular and
synchrotron techniques to assist with identifying biological and
chemical threats to heritage artefacts and monuments The book also
provides up-to-date information on subjects covering the component
field of heritage microbiology, molecular and chemical analytical
techniques, and the mechanisms of degradation and deterioration of
historic ships and buildings. The book details state-of-the-art
techniques for the study of large and small heritage objects, and
their conservation. Techniques cover the use of GIS image
processing, molecular biological analysis of environmental samples
including FISH, electrophoresis to remove corrosive ions and
synchrotron radiation to detect chemicals present in artefacts.
Several authors have developed their methods through involvement in
international collaborative projects such as BIOBRUSH, BACPOLES and
Save the Vasa. Extensive emphasis is placed on case studies and
there is a valuable section on historic ships covering the
preservation of HMS Victory, ss Great Britain, Vasa and the Mary
Rose. This book provides an indispensable guide and reference
source for those working in all areas of historical conservation,
biodeterioration, microbiology and materials science.
An acclaimed photographic guide to these marvelous and enigmatic
birds-now in a new, updated edition Penguins are perhaps the most
beloved birds. On land, their behavior appears so humorous and
expressive that we can be excused for attributing to them moods and
foibles similar to our own. Few realize how complex and mysterious
their private lives truly are, as most of their existence takes
place far from our prying eyes, hidden beneath the ocean waves. Now
in a new, updated edition, this stunningly illustrated book
provides a unique look at these extraordinary creatures and the
cutting-edge science that is helping us to better understand them.
Featuring more than 400 breathtaking photos, this is the ultimate
guide to all 18 species of penguins, including those with retiring
personalities or nocturnal habits that tend to be overlooked and
rarely photographed. This revised second edition features updated
scientific information and some spectacular new photographs.
Penguins is the most ambitious book to date by Tui De Roy, Mark
Jones, and Julie Cornthwaite. Their travels, spanning more than two
decades, have seen them crisscross the southern hemisphere to
virtually everywhere that penguins are found, from the sun-baked
lava shores of the Galapagos to some of the remotest subantarctic
islands, as well as all around the Antarctic continent, where
Emperor penguins breed on the deep-frozen sea. A book that no bird
enthusiast or armchair naturalist should do without, Penguins
includes discussions of penguin conservation, informative species
profiles, fascinating penguin facts, and tips on where to see
penguins in the wild. Covers all 18 species of the world's penguins
Features more than 400 stunning photos Explores the latest science
on penguins and their conservation Includes informative species
profiles and fascinating penguin facts

Covering criminal justice history on a cross-national basis, this
book surveys criminal justice in Western civilization and American
life chronologically from ancient times to the present. It is an
introduction to the historical problems of crime, law enforcement
and penology, set against the background of major historical events
and movements. Integrating criminal justice history into the scope
of European, British, French and American history, this text
provides the opportunity for comparisons of crime and punishment
over boundaries of national histories. The text now concludes with
a chapter that addresses terrorism and homeland security.
The German Revolution of 1918-1919 was a transformative moment in
modern European history. It was both the end of the German Empire
and the First World War, as well as the birth of the Weimar
Republic, the short-lived democracy that preceded the establishment
of the Nazi dictatorship. A time of great political drama, the
Revolution saw unprecedented levels of mass mobilisation and
political violence, including the 'Spartacist Uprising' of January
1919, the murders of Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxemburg, and the
violent suppression of strikes and the Munich Councils' Republic.
Drawing upon the historiography of the French Revolution, Founding
Weimar is the first study to place crowds and the politics of the
streets at the heart of the Revolution's history. Carefully argued
and meticulously researched, it will appeal to anyone with an
interest in the relationship between violence, revolution, and
state formation, as well as in the history of modern Germany.
A talented yet ferocious player, and one of the acknowledged
'bad-boys' of rugby, Mark Jones' on-field brutality was a direct
consequence of the off-field torment he suffered with a
debilitating stammer. In Fighting to Speak, his revealing and
uplifting autobiography, Jones explains how his frustration with
his stutter led to a self-loathing and the internalising of an
explosive hate that only playing rugby could release - with his
unfortunate opponents often on the receiving end of his rage. Sent
off six times and banned for over 33 weeks for violent conduct
during his career, the dual-code Wales international and Great
Britain RL forward was desperately unhappy and detested the
thuggish reputation he'd created. After one exceptionally ugly
incident, when he broke another player's eye socket, Jones realised
that in order to defeat his demons and control his bad behaviour he
needed help to conquer his stammer. Mark Jones fought and won the
hardest battle of his life with a steely determination and has now
found the inner peace and dignity he'd longed for as a young man.
He has decided to tell his story in order to seek redemption for
his violent past on the rugby field, and to help others overcome
their stammers.
