Although Somalis have settled in the UK in substantial numbers, the
schooling needs of Somali children have received little attention,
except for in Mohamed Kahin's Educating Somali Children in Britain
(1997). This new book, completed by Professor Catherine Wallace
after his death, continues his work in this area, with a focus on
how parents can maximize the achievement of Somali pupils in UK
schools. Much will be applicable to other minority groups, and to
families in global societies of increasingly diverse ethnic, class
and cultural backgrounds.

The Tent Generations, Palestinian Poems gathers together works by a
select number of Palestinian poets, over the past seven decades,
that give expression to the Palestinian experience under Israeli
rule and Israeli occupation, as well as the experience of
dispersion and displacement from their homeland following the
Nakba, the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, and the subsequent wars of 1967
and 1973. These poems illuminate Palestinian responses to these
tragic conflicts and wars that contributed to the loss of homeland,
life under Israeli occupation, and the fragmentation and ruin of
society and community. The 16 poets in this collection span and
represent different generations and narratives, different
backgrounds, and different locations, some of whose voices have not
been heard previously in English, and, by and large, others whose
works are not previously translated into English. Although these
poems cannot resolve the deep contradictions and disagreements that
divide Palestinians and Israelis today, this collection shows how
these poets use poetry to describe their relationship to the
Palestinian people, their homeland, and the presence of an Israeli
occupier in their midst.
Science diplomacy gives possibilities for international diplomacy
and science policy to collaborate to more directly address social
and global challenges, such as successful diplomatic engagement,
international scientific coordination, and policy coherence in
response to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, most academic
scientists lack policy process training, networking opportunities
with science policymakers, and the capacity to use their expertise
in the field to advance policy or diplomacy. These barriers limit
scientists' research impact, inhibit science-policy relations,
reduce science recommendations, and restrict university engagement
in national and international contexts. The origins of science
diplomacy have yet to be closely examined, and its current format
does not give a clear understanding of how it concretely translates
into science policy actions. Global Science's Cooperation
Opportunities, Challenges, and Good Practices provides a
comprehensive overview of science diplomacy and its evolution in
history and analyzes the ways in which politics, science, and
diplomacy intertwine. The book also provides a critical review of
science diplomacy by exposing its limitations in addressing global
challenges and by reflecting on the specific questions relating to
the adaptation of the science diplomacy concept to the context of
the Global South. Covering key topics such as climate change,
foreign policy, and energy consumption, this premier reference
source is ideal for policymakers, government officials,
politicians, industry professionals, researchers, academicians,
scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.
The Higher Education Learners' Learning Outcomes (HELLO) project
offers a comprehensive solution to the challenge of creating
comparative metrics of learning outcomes that are valid across
various cultures, languages, and higher education institution
types. Traditional methods of assessing learning outcomes in higher
education have limited institutions' abilities to compare student
performance to that of their peers, hindering efforts to improve
teaching practices and enhance student learning. This project
creates learning outcome measures that are culturally and
linguistically appropriate for different types of higher education
institutions, enabling institutions to compare student performance
to that of their peers as part of efforts to improve teaching
practices and enhance student learning. Design and Implementation
of Higher Education Learners' Learning Outcomes (HELLO), edited by
Kuntal Barua, Neyara Radwan Mohammed, Virendra Singh, and Ronnie
Figueiredo, provides a persuasive account of the HELLO project and
is intended for all students, teachers, administrations, and higher
education institutions interested in improving teaching practices
and enhancing student learning outcomes. The book presents the
challenges in traditional methods of assessing learning outcomes,
the limitations of diverse attempts to fill the quality information
gap, and the rationale for HELLO beyond collegial approaches and
student-centered learning. The book also explores key challenges in
developing and executing HELLO, such as the risks of ranking and
value-added methodologies. By offering a comprehensive overview of
the HELLO project, this book provides higher education institutions
with the information and motivation they need to participate in the
project and enhance their students' learning outcomes.
The author of Third Party Funding in International Arbitration
challenges the structural inconsistencies of the current practices
of arbitration funding by arguing that third party funding should
be a forum of justice, rather than a forum of profit. By looking at
the premise, rather than the implication, the author presents the
arcane areas of intersection between access to justice, as a
foundational theory for third party funding, and the arbitration
funding practice that lacks a unifying framework. The author
introduces a new methodology with an alternative way of structuring
third party funding to solve a set of practical problems generated
by the risk of claim control by the funder. This book will be of
interest to third party funders, arbitrators, lawyers, arbitral
institutions, academics, and law students.
The advancement in FinTech especially artificial intelligence (AI)
and machine learning (ML), has significantly affected the way
financial services are offered and adopted today. Important
financial decisions such as investment decision making,
macroeconomic analysis, and credit evaluation are getting more
complex in the field of finance. ML is used in many financial
companies which are making a significant impact on financial
services. With the increasing complexity of financial transaction
processes, ML can reduce operational costs through process
automation which can automate repetitive tasks and increase
productivity. Among others, ML can analyze large volumes of
historical data and make better trading decisions to increase
revenue. This book provides an exhaustive overview of the roles of
AI and ML algorithms in financial sectors with special reference to
complex financial applications such as financial risk management in
a big data environment. In addition, it provides a collection of
high-quality research works that address broad challenges in both
theoretical and application aspects of AI in the field of finance.

librarians, researchers, and academicians.
Much has been written about the role and presence of the Arabs in
the world at the beginning of this millennium, and their ability to
meet the challenges overwhelming our planet, bristling as it is
with science, technology and latest lethal weapons. Now this new
book by Sheikh Mohamed Bin Issa Al Jaber penetrates to the heart of
the Arab situation by a new route, hitherto uncharted. The author
gives us a practical and precise summary of his own contemporary
Arab experience from an intercontinental perspective, notable for
its success, variety and modernity. Sheikh Mohamed has been able to
scale the peaks of international corporate and institutional life,
and impose his presence and voice upon them. Here, in a
distillation of wisdom drawn from a unique career, he presents us
with a practical account of the lessons of his success, so that
they can be applied to economic and social institutions and thence
to society at large. This book is a translation of the Arabic
original, first published in 2009. It therefore pre-dates the
events of the`Arab Spring' and other recent upheavals in the Arab
world. Its insights are none-theless valid, and are just as
applicable to the Arab world today as they were four years ago.
Indeed, they have taken on extra urgency in the light of the
author's prescient diagnosis of the Arab peoples' thirst for
democracy, human rights and proper citizenship in their own
countries. SHEIKH MOHAMED BIN ISSA AL JABER was born in Jeddah,
Saudi Arabia, in 1959, and is today a prominent international
businessman and philanthropist. He is founder and chairman of the
MBI Group, a worldwide investment institution operating in the
hospitality, real estate, finance, oil and gas, and food
industries, as well as the founder and sole patron of the MBI Al
Jaber Foundation, a UK-registered charity focused on building
bridges between the Middle East and the wider world. Among many
other roles he is Special Envoy of the Director General of UNESCO
for tolerance, democracy and peace, official UN spokesman for good
governance, founder of the London Middle East Institute at SOAS,
and a fellow of Corpus Christi College, Oxford. With a Foreword by
Professor Michael Worton.
Robotics plays a pivotal role in many domains such as industry and
medicine. Robots allow for increased safety, production rates,
