Book SynopsisThis book presents new insights into the nature of the human mind as a product of the brain.

One of the conclusions of this theory is that these entities and processes are non-physical and exist in an information dimension connected to but distinct from the three dimensions of physical space. It is in this information dimension that our minds exist, making it ultimately more our home as sentient beings than the physical realm inhabited by our bodies.

Taylor & Francis Let the Learners Lead
Book SynopsisWhen schools trust young people with meaningful influence, they donât just prepare students for the futureâthey co-create it.Todayâs world demands leaders who can collaborate across differences, solve complex problems, and strengthen community well-being. Yet most schools still rely on leadership models rooted in competition, scarcity, and hierarchyârewarding a select few while sending others the message that leadership is not for them. Let the Learners Lead challenges this status quo by positioning student leadership as a collective responsibility and a source of school improvement. It invites schools to break free from traditional hierarchies, foster belonging, and co-create a culture where every voice matters.Blending personal experience with insights from youth development research, the book demonstrates how co-creation transforms school culture, so students discover the impact of their ideas, adults become more attuned to student experience, and communities grow more connected and equitable. Combining case studies from diverse schools, interviews with experts and young leaders, and actionable tools, the chapters offer a step-by-step approach to making student leadership inclusive, relational, and real. Educators will learn how to elevate overlooked voices, distribute responsibility, and celebrate student contributions to inspire collective purpose.Including ready-to-use templates, activities, and frameworks, this is essential reading for school leaders and educators who are seeking practical strategies to improve school culture, foster inclusive student leadership, and support student engagement.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Law and Resistance
Book SynopsisTaking Michel Foucault's genealogical analysis of power and resistance as its starting point, the book asks, from below, is there something in the very nature of law that is, in its discursive and institutional dynamics, in its spatial, material, and temporal coordinates; in its own conceptual categories, claims, mechanisms, and processes that makes it something more than the mere instrument and armature of power? If those in power can utilize the devices of law and justice to achieve political ends, isn't there something about these devices that can accommodate fresh articulations? Contending that there are, indeed, discursive, spatial, and temporal resources that can be reconfigured and redeployed as a counter-power and counter-discourse against sovereignty, the book takes as its focus the judicial apparatus; and, more specifically, the concept of the political or show trial. Examining the landmark political trials of Nelson Mandela, Marwan Barghouti, and Bobby Seale, the politi

Taylor & Francis The Origin of Our Knowledge of Right and Wrong
Book Synopsis'Is there such a thing as a moral truth taught by nature itself and independent of ecclesiastical, political, and every other kind of social authority? Is there a moral law that is natural in the sense of being universally and incontestably validâvalid for men at all places and all times, indeed valid for any being that thinks and feelsâand are we capable of knowing that there is such a law? ... My own answer is emphatically affirmative.' - Franz Brentano, The Origin of Our Knowledge of Right and WrongFranz Brentano is one of the founding figures of twentieth century philosophy, celebrated for introducing the concept of intentionality as well as making significant contributions to ethics, philosophy of psychology and logic. He counted Sigmund Freud, Rudolf Steiner and Edmund Husserl amongst his students and Freud wrote to his teacher to express his great admiration for him.The Origin of Our Knowledge of Right and Wrong is Brentano's most important book on ethics and moral philosophy. Hailed by the Cambridge philosopher G.E. Moore as 'a far better discussion of the most fundamental principles of Ethics than any others with which I am acquainted', it is based on an important lecture Brentano delivered in Vienna in 1889 and the product of many years of reflection on its subject matter. Breaking with earlier arguments that ideas of right and wrong are innate, Brentano seeks to overcome a major challenge: if there is no such thing as objective moral goodness, can our moral judgments themselves still be objective, independent of context or human conventions? Brentano's answer is that they can, but only if we understand correctly the function of moral thought and discourse. His bold and highly original insight is that emotions are a precondition for moral knowledge and our experience of them can be right or wrong: if it is correct or fitting to love something we can say it is good, and if it is fitting to hate it, it is bad.Moving deftly through key figures in the history of philosophy, including Descartes and John Stuart Mill, The Origin of Our Knowledge of Right and Wrong is a pioneering work of ethics that continues to influence both analytical and phenomenological traditions in philosophy.This Routledge Classics edition includes a helpful account of Brentano's life and major works and a Foreword, both by Uriah Kriegel, explaining some of Brentanoâs core ideas and arguments. Also included are a significant excerpt from Brentano's The Foundation and Construction of Ethics, and a historically important review by G.E. Moore of The Origin of Our Knowledge of Right and Wrong on the book's first publication.
