In bringing together a global community of philosophers, Global
Epistemologies and Philosophies of Science develops novel
perspectives on epistemology and philosophy of science by
demonstrating how frameworks from academic philosophy (e.g.
standpoint theory, social epistemology, feminist philosophy of
science) and related fields (e.g. decolonial studies,
transdisciplinarity, global history of science) can contribute to
critical engagement with global dimensions of knowledge and
science. Global challenges such as climate change, food production,
and infectious diseases raise complex questions about scientific
knowledge production and its interactions with local knowledge
systems and social realities. As academic philosophy provides
relatively little reflection on global negotiations of knowledge,
many pressing scientific and societal issues remain disconnected
from core debates in epistemology and philosophy of science. This
book is an invitation to broaden agendas of academic philosophy by
presenting epistemology and philosophy of science as globally
engaged fields that address heterogeneous forms of knowledge
production and their interactions with local livelihoods,
practices, and worldviews. This integrative ambition makes the book
equally relevant for philosophers and interdisciplinary scholars
who are concerned with methodological and political challenges at
the intersection of science and society.
With contributions from international policing experts, this book
is the first of its kind to bring together a broad range of
scholarship on translational criminology and policing.
Translational criminology aims to understand the obstacles and
facilitators to implementing research by decisionmakers to improve
effectiveness, fairness, and efficiency in the criminal justice
system. Although the emergence of the translation of knowledge from
research to policy and practice has gained momentum in policing in
recent years, it is imperative to understand the specific
mechanisms required to create collaborative structures to produce
and disseminate information. This progressive and cutting-edge
collection of articles addresses the growing interest in creating
and advancing evidence-based policing through translational
mechanisms. It describes a varied, dynamic, and iterative
decision-making process in which researchers and practitioners work
simultaneously to generate and implement evidence-based research.
Not only does this book incorporate a process for translating
criminological information, it offers varying perspectives on
researcher-practitioner partnerships around the world.
Translational Criminology in Policing provides practical principles
to help research, practitioner, and policymaker audiences
facilitate evidence translation and research-practitioner
partnerships. It is essential reading for policing scholars and
policymakers, and may serve as a reference and textbook for courses
and further research in translational criminology in policing.

Among the roughly 30,000 species of fish, migratory species account
for only 165 species, but most of them are very important fisheries
resources. This book presents up-to-date innovative research
results on the physiology and ecology of fish migration. It focuses
on salmon, eels, lampreys, and bluefin tuna. The book examines
migratory behavior, spawning, and behavioral ecology.
