The concept of personal autonomy is central to discussions about
democratic rights, personal freedom and individualism in the
marketplace. This book, first published in 1986, discusses the
concept of personal autonomy in all its facets. It charts
historically the discussion of the concept by political thinkers
and relates the concept of the autonomy of the individual to the
related discussion in political thought about the autonomy of
states. It argues that defining personal autonomy as freedom to act
without external constraints is too narrow and emphasises instead
that personal autonomy implies individual self-determination in
accordance with a chosen plan of life. It discusses the nature of
personal autonomy and explores the circumstances in which it ought
to be restricted. In particular, it argues the need to restrict the
economic autonomy of the individual in order to promote the value
of community.

The works Minis had a long and distinguished competition history
between 1959 and 1970, when British Leyland bosses closed the
Abingdon Competition Department. The car started its competition
career chasing class awards with the diminutive 850cc Mini, but
once race car designer John Cooper persuaded BMC that they should
build a hot version, the Mini Cooper was born and things moved up a
gear. With the introduction of the Mini Cooper S, the car soon
became a world beater. Winning the 1964 Monte Carlo Rally in the
hands of Paddy Hopkirk was a watershed moment which the Abingdon
team repeated three times. During that 11-year period, 77 works
Minis were built, competing in more than 300 events, most of them
international rallies. The 1969 season, when the works Minis went
racing, is also covered, along with the rallycross events. The book
covers each one of those 77 cars which, in their distinctive red
and white paintwork, were a force be reckoned with wherever they
competed. Build details of every car are provided, drawn from
factory build sheets, with information also on when cars were
reshelled and identities swapped. The details of the events entered
and the drivers are the result of analysing hundreds of
contemporary race and rally reports. The result is the most
in-depth study of the works Minis ever published, made possible by
years of research by Robert Young, a lifelong Mini enthusiast.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 7th International
Formal Ontologies Meet Industries Workshop held in Berlin, Germany,
in August 2015. The 11 full research papers accepted for FOMI 2015
were selected from 18 submissions. The papers focus on theoretical
studies of formal ontologies committed to provide a sound basis for
industrial applications and to allow formal representation of
corporate knowledge, and on business experiences in case studies
that single out concrete problems and possible solutions in the
creation and deployment of formal ontologies. Overall, they provide
valuable insights into the current state of progress in supporting
industrial information and knowledge sharing through the
development of formal ontologies.
As very few studies on geomorphological aspects of sandstones
exist, this book demonstrates the significance of landforming
processes from geological, geochemical and dynamic points of view.
The worldwide examples include classic areas of sandstone research
such as the Colorado Plateau, Saxony, France and England, but also
emphasize the sandstone lands of the southern hemisphere. The
authors give evidence for climatic influences on sandstone
landforms, taking into account geochemical weathering processes and
detailed comparative studies, and a new classification based on
structural and tectonic settings is outlined. This comprehensive
study, including modern techniques, can be recommended not only to
geomorphologists but also to sedimentologists and hydrologists.
A standard Biblical concordance, Young's casts all words in the
Bible into alphabetical order and arranges them under their
respective original words. This helps the reader to analyze more
accurately the various uses of the original Hebrew and Greek words.
Includes over 300,000 biblical references.
The theory of critique, or 'critical theory', as developed by
Habermas and applied to education by Young, is far from being
merely negative. It is quite explicitly an optimistic educational
theory, in which the hope for rational progress, peace, global
understanding and ecological sanity, is celebrated. Now that
dogmatic Marxism has been swept into the rubbish bin of history, it
may be possible to engage in a less paranoid appraisal of the
claims of critical theory - the most revisionist legacy of Marxism.
A close look shows it to be eminently practical,
democratically-minded and responsible. In this book, Young
summarises critical learning theory, shows its relationship to
educational research, particularly research on classroom
communication, and demonstrates its value for classroom teachers in
a variety of 'real-life' classrooms. Far from being a utopian
approach, it comes to grips with the everyday problems of teachers
in real, imperfect, underfunded schools. Motivation, interest,
getting through the work, achieving real understanding and
teacher-planner relationships are fully discussed, using classroom
transcripts.
This book presents a class-based analysis of poststructuralism and
race. The author positions this fundamental question at the heart
of his project: why does race still work if it is commonly
misunderstood to be a social construct? The answer is that race
works because it operates like a commodity, and like any commodity,
as long as it generates value (understood in the widest possible
sense: economic, political, and cultural-ideological value), it
will remain in circulation. This study should contribute to our
understanding of race by linking questions of use value to exchange
value.
