Taylor & Francis Architecture is a Verb
Book SynopsisArchitecture is a Verb outlines an approach that shifts the fundamental premises of architectural design and practice in several important ways. First, it acknowledges the centrality of the human organism as an active participant interdependent in its environment. Second, it understands human action in terms of radical embodimentgrounding the range of human activities traditionally attributed to mind and cognition: imagining, thinking, rememberingin the body. Third, it asks what a building doesthat is, extends the performative functional interpretation of design to interrogate how buildings move and in turn move us, how they shape thought and action. Finally, it is committed to articulating concrete situations by developing a taxonomy of human/building interactions.Written in engaging prose for students of architecture, interiors and urban design, as well as practicing professionals, Sarah Robinson offers richly illustrated practical examples for a new generatTrade ReviewA veritable encyclopedia of ideas, all pressing toward one sage insight: good design—far from being an act of technocratic rationality—resides in the poetic, festive, and cultural interplay between self and other, or better, the art of exploring the depth of our visceral engagement with the world. All else is inhumanity.—Harry Francis Mallgrave, Emeritus Director of Architectural and Theory program at Illinois Institute of Technology and the author of The Architect’s Brain, Architecture and Embodiment and From Object to Experience, among other books. Robinson’s clear prose brings hope—stitching together insights from philosophy, existential phenomenology, the cognitive sciences, ethology, psychology, anthropology, architectural and literary history, to shed light on possibilities that are open to designers and architects in our complex world. . . in an intellectual poetics meant to evoke, resonate and make you think.—Alberto Pérez Gómez, Director of the History and Architecture Program at McGill University and author of Architecture and the Crisis of Modern Science, Built Upon Love and Attunement, among other books.Architecture has been incessantly theorized, taught and practiced merely as an art of aestheticised material structures and space. Sarah Robinson presents architecture convincingly and inspiringly as a network of relationships, actions and interactions; buildings reveal, structure and articulate our encounters and relations with the world. Through deftly weaving knowledge from diverse disciplines ranging from philosophy to psychology, anthropology to neuroscience and history to poetics—this book opens up comprehensive and balanced but truly radical views of the complex phenomenon of architecture. The reader will surely encounter and experience buildings differently after having read this significant book.—Juhani Pallasmaa, Architect, Professor emeritus (Aalto University), Writer, Member of the Pritzker Architecture Prize Jury, 2008-2014 Table of Contents1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Little Brains Matter
Book SynopsisThis accessible guide introduces neuroscience, demystifying terminology and language and increasing the knowledge, skills and, importantly, confidence of anyone interested in brain development in early childhood.Practical and reflective chapters highlight the multi-faceted role of adults as brain builders' and encourage the reader to consider how the environment, play and interactions are crucially interlinked. The book considers cutting-edge science and introduces this in an accessible way to look at a range of ways that adults can support children, exploring: how poverty, adversity, and social, emotional and mental health all influence the developing child the science behind play, and why it is so important for young children how we can take ideas from different disciplines such as psychology and anthropology and interweave these with the overarching research of neuroscience why adult interaction (both practitioner and parent/carer) with Trade Review"Debbie Garvey has produced an engaging and thought-provoking book that examines and demystifies a wealth of knowledge from research, helping early years practitioners to think carefully and critically about their work with young children. The book is remarkable, both for the clarity with which it explains complex theories and concepts, and the deftness with which the relevance of those theories and concepts to everyday practice is explored. Insights from neuroscience and early brain development are placed in a broader context, making links to ideas from early years pioneers, and to other academic fields such as anthropology. The case studies that pop up throughout the book […] serve to place these ideas directly into a range of practice contexts, drawing on and celebrating the work of practitioners […]. The book is presented as a journey through these ideas, and the reader is encouraged to journey actively alongside the author, stopping regularly to review the road travelled and to reflect meaningfully on lessons learned and insights gained." – Dr. Yinka Olusoga, Lecturer in Education at the University of Sheffield "What a treasure trove of learning! Not only does this book provide clean and clear reading material on the complexity of neuroscience, behaviour, psychology, and the role of the adult; each chapter is filled with practical examples, and moments of pause and reflection throughout. […] I was drawn in from the opening preface with the style of writing that simply and powerfully speaks to you. Generatively Debbie provides a wealth of signposting too, to other rich and informative resources that together with Little Brains Matter will aid any student, practitioner, lecturer, or person(s) exploring the importance of little brains and why they matter." – Dr. Julie A. Ovington AiMH, Senior Lecturer and Program Leader in Childhood and Society Studies, University of Sunderland "This book is essential for anyone working in early years. Debbie’s passion for the early childhood sector shines, and her research informed experience comes across clearly on every page. Neuroscience is a complex field to get to grips with, but Debbie makes each key area accessible, explaining the incredible nature of the human brain and outlining what is needed for healthy neurological development. The case studies are truly thought provoking and offer practical takeaways […]. Above all, Debbie succeeds in her aim to empower educators, and throughout the book runs the golden thread of valuing children, tuning into them, and learning from them. A fantastic read." – Sarah Watkins, Author, Presenter and University Lecturer "In Little Brains Matter Debbie’s generosity of spirit knows no bounds and her desire to share both her knowledge and her passion is palpable, not just through the accessibility of the jargon-free conversational style […] but in the immanently do-able ways in which sources are embedded into the very heart and soul of the text and not just listed dryly at chapter ends. ‘If you want to explore this more…’, Debbie incites, ‘go to …. I would urge you to explore it further’ […] This is as much a book about how to explore and read around a subject matter as it about the imparting of understanding. Although the latter it does a plenty." – Joanna Ainsworth, Early Years Montessori Researcher and Practitioner "As a foster carer we deal with all of these behaviours on a daily basis, but we often don’t have any knowledge of the science behind it. It was amazing to read some of what I already know to be but didn’t have a name for. Anyone working in child development would greatly benefit from reading this book, which raises as many questions as it answers on a never-ending but fascinating topic." – C. E. A.
