'Racing is truly a global enterprise, and it's expanding every
year. There is no one more qualified than Chris Aylett to discuss
the business of motorsport on a global scale. The racing industry
is an extraordinarily dynamic worldwide market. This book does an
excellent job in capturing its scope and robust vitality.' - Steve
Lewis, Owner/Publisher of 'Performance Racing Industry' magazine
and the PRI Show, the largest racing industry trade event in the
world
'This excellent, readable book looks at the motorsport industry
in a new light: that of a business that is on the verge of becoming
global in its activities and with some of the aspects of
globalisation already in place. It is clear that the motorsport
industry is facing opportunities that are unique in scope and scale
but will it take them? The authors present intriguing answers to
this question. This book is a must read for those concerned about
motorsport's traditional clusters, as they need to be forewarned of
the challenges and ready with solutions.' - Professor D. G. Rhys
CBE, Director, Centre for Automotive Industry Research, Cardiff
University Business School and Member of the UK's Motor Racing
Development Board
Globally, rates of sexual violence remain unacceptably high, with
disproportionate effects on women and girls. While most scholars
and practitioners uniformly concur about the scope of the problem,
there is currently little agreement about how to prevent sexual
violence before it occurs.Drawing on diverse disciplines such as
criminology, education, health promotion, law, psychology, social
work, socio-legal studies, sociology and women's studies, this book
provides the first interdisciplinary collection on the primary
prevention of sexual violence. The volume addresses the key causes
or determinants of sexual violence, including cultural attitudes,
values, beliefs and norms, as well as systemic gender-based
inequalities that create the conditions underlying much violence
against women. Including contributions from internationally
renowned experts in the field, the volume critically investigates
the theoretical underpinnings of prevention work, describing and
analysing the limits and possibilities of primary prevention
strategies 'on the ground'. The chapters collectively examine the
role that structural violence and gender inequality play in
fostering a 'culture' of sexual violence, and reflect on the
relationship between macro and micro levels for understanding both
sexual violence perpetration and prevention.This book will be a key
resource for scholars, practitioners and policymakers involved in
the fields of sexual violence prevention, education, law, family
violence, and child sexual abuse.Including contributions from
Victoria L. Banyard (University of New Hampshire, USA), Alison
Cares (Assumption College, USA), Moira Carmody (University of
Western Sydney, Australia), Gillian Fletcher (La Trobe Univeristy,
Australia), Wendy Larcombe (University of Melbourne, Australia),
Claire Maxwell (University of London, UK), Mary M. Moynihan
(University of New Hampshire, USA), Bob Pease (Deakin University,
Australia) and Antonia Quadara (Australian Institute of Family
Studies, Australia).

Teachable Moments: Essays on Experiential Education examines the
pedagogy of Prescott College, a school that has embraced
experiential education and been finding success with it for over
thirty years. These essays-from scholars in fields as wide ranging
as religious studies, environmental science, psychology, dance,
literature, adventure education, and peace studies-examine the
challenges and, ultimately, the rewards of student-centered
education. Each essay is preceded by an introduction that presents
a synopsis of the work, the writer's biographical information, and
a brief comment from the writer. The principles of experiential
education, from pedagogy and class preparation to actual
experiences and administrative duties, are shared throughout in
story and anecdote. Teachable Moments: Essays on Experiential
Education is a helpful guide for all educators.
