Book SynopsisTrade Review"This is a landmark volume that sets the standard for any future collection in medical/health humanities. It is by turns authoritative, funny, edgy, creative and personal—sometimes all in one piece.” -- Thomas R. Cole * Director, McGovern Center for Humanities and Ethics, University of Texas-Houston Medical School *"It's about time! The field of medical humanities has been waiting for a reader, and this one is it. With an excellent array of essays in appropriate topics by top people in the field, this book should set the standard for the next ten years. It will prove fascinating to undergraduates, graduate students in both the humanities and the health sciences, and to the general public and particularly those who are or will be patients—which of course is everyone." -- Lennard J. Davis * editor of The Disability Studies Reader *"This bold, intelligent, and vitally comprehensive collection is a truly interdisciplinary achievement and an indispensible resource.Through twelve judiciously selected thematic clusters, Rutgers’s Health Humanities Reader consolidates this new subfield by capturing both the complexity and excitement of health humanities scholarship. An essential tool with practical applications both inside and outside the classroom." -- Andrea Charise, PhD * assistant professor of health studies, University of Toronto, Scarborough *"[This book] consists of nearly 50 chapters, some of which deal with classic medical humanities topics, such as the notions of health and disease and the theory of the body. The majority of the book centers on more contemporary—some would say postmodern—issues, such as gender and sexuality, disability, and aging.

Book SynopsisDiscusses topics of central importance in the secondary school mathematics curriculum, including functions, polynomials, trigonometry, exponential and logarithmic functions, number and operation, and measurement. This volume is primarily intended as the text for a bridge or capstone course for pre-service secondary school mathematics teachers.Trade ReviewAs the authors state early on, this book is intended in part as a response to the 2001 report from the Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences on the mathematical education of future teachers. There is a very definite need for books like this one. While courses and textbooks on mathematics for elementary teachers are common across America, few schools offer a course for which this book would be a good fit, and that's probably regrettable. There is a good argument to be made for offering prospective secondary teachers the same kind of course—in which they consider the math they expect to teach from an advanced perspective and with some attention to how to teach it—that we routinely require of prospective elementary teachers. … the suggestion of the CBMS report that “Prospective mathematics teachers need mathematics courses that develop a deep understanding of the mathematics they will teach” will be well-realized by a course based on this textbook." - Mark Bollman, MAA ReviewsTable of Contents Preface To the Student To the Instructor 1.

Book SynopsisCovers the story of trigonometry. This is a swift overview, but it is complete in the context of the content discussed in beginning and advanced high-school courses. The purpose of these notes is to supplement and put into perspective the material of any course on the subject.Trade ReviewThe real unique feature of this book is the set of ten problem solving strategies that Tanton employs when he solved the featured problems. … Tanton references these strategies in his descriptions of solving the featured problems and manages to inject a bit of humor into the work. Trigonometry is a topic that is core to the understanding of basic mathematics and in this book Tanton emphasizes that even experienced mathematicians will look at problems and have an initial reaction of “What?” If you teach trig, there are many interesting and effective pedagogical techniques in this book as well as problems that you can use." - Charles Ashbacher"This clearly written, engaging book combines a summary of high school trigonometry and a guide to problem solving. The book offers teachers ideas about how to present some topics in an interesting way along with a collection of challenging problems involving trigonometry… If you are looking for an excellent collection of challenging problems that use trigonometry or for a well-written review of trigonometry, this book would be a good choice." - Mathematics Teacher"…This book collects the most meaningful results from trigonometry and, in addition to reviewing them for the reader, includes a robust collection of problems from previous contests, where their value to competitors can be easily demonstrated. While this is not a textbook, a nice added feature is the connections to Common Core state standards. It's good to see that contest mathematics need not be separate from day-to-day classroom mathematics, and that there's more to contest uses of trigonometry than just clever tricks…" - Mark Bollman, MAA ReviewsTable of Contents About these Study Guides This Guide and Mathematics Competitions On Competition Names On Competition Success This Guide and the Craft of Solving Problems This Guide and Mathematics Content: Trigonometry For Educators: This Guide and the Common Core State Standards Part I: Trigonometry 1.

Book SynopsisTrade Review"Discussing art and its applications to countless issues, and how people have empowered themselves through it, Arts for Change is a look at arts, politics, and culture as a whole through modern America. Arts for Change is an intriguing read, especially recommended for those who transmit messages through their art." * Midwest Book Review *"This book offers an important glimpse into the personal development of one engaged artist/educator who seeks to keep growing through her dialogue with others, colleagues and students alike." -- Anusha Venkataraman * Community Arts Network *"Arts for Change is not just a book for teachers; it is a book that invites everyone to think about how the individual affects the collective." -- Andrea Avila * Canadian Art Teacher *"Naidus does an excellent job of drawing in all kinds of readers by weaving story and academic reflection together as opposing yet familiar textures. The overall effect is a powerful account in which theory develops through history, personal story, and the words of others, making Arts for Change an enlightening read." -- Kelly Campbell-Busby * Journal of Community Engagement and Scholarship *"Arts for Change is essential reading for artists, art teachers, educational administrators, and students of art. It brings to life a pedagogical practice, employed for years by a significant number of socially-engaged activist artists, known but to few outside this community." -- Nina Felshin, author * But Is It Art? The Spirit of Art as Activism *"Naidus argues passionately for a different kind of art, one that builds social muscle and can make a difference in the world. I predict this book will inspire exciting and innovative trends in both art and education and critical theory, tilting them more in the direction of interdisciplinary and socially engaged practices. And I agree with Naidus' core proposition that the times demand nothing less." -- Suzi Gablik, author, * The Re-Enchantment of Art and Conversations Before the End of Time *

Book SynopsisTrade Review‘This is a delightful book. Drawing on the contributors’ experiences and expertise, it addresses a wide range of topics relating to game-based learning in the modern business school. From the design and build of simulations through to the evaluation of experiential learning, every chapter offers real insight and a sense of what it is like for the educator to adopt these methods, warts and all! The practical advice and illustrations regarding the embedding of simulations and games in the curriculum is intensely valuable, not just to those experimenting with such techniques for the first time, but also for those who have been using such approaches for some time. The evaluations and reflections of the authors here provide a deep, personable and engaging insight into such techniques.’Table of ContentsContents: Preface by Caroline Elliott xi 1 Introduction on games, serious games, simulation and gamification 1 Panagiotis Petridis and Lauren Traczykowski 2 The use of games to teach corporate social responsibility and sustainability 14 Maria Kozlovskaya 3 Why so serious?

Book SynopsisTrade Review‘The crises threatening tourism’s future are causing reflective teachers to re-examine what they are teaching and why. This book synthesizes the knowledge and passion of 45 such educators from diverse origins and disciplines. It is truly a lighthouse in the storm. It sheds light by providing a strong philosophical framework for new approaches to developing tourism curricula focused on values and transformation. In addition to its strong axiological foundations, it contains a wealth of innovative activities and student engagement exercises to ensure its pedagogical relevance. Building on the work of Tourism Education Futures Initiative (TEFI), this book is an inspiration and a much-needed bridge to a new and transformed tourism world. I recommend it as required reading for all tourism educators!’ -- Pauline Sheldon, Professor Emerita, University of Hawaii, US‘Readers who regard education and learning as a transformative force will embrace this book. The editors and contributors are leading thinkers and educators, including early career and established academics. They have collaborated on chapters about a variety of topics, employing diverse pedagogical approaches to addressing the range of environmental, political and sociocultural issues that students will encounter as future leaders and members of society. Considering the need for inclusive, mindful approaches to reducing humanities’ environmental impacts, this collection is informed by principles that enable localised, values-based perspectives. Conversation starters and activities complement each chapter’s discussion and the end result provides thought-provoking inspiration for those who wish to refresh and revitalise their teaching of tourism studies.’ -- Anna Carr, University of Otago/ Te Whare Wananga o Otago, New Zealand‘This is a challenging book. It challenges us to think about what, why and how we teach. It does this by a deep inspection of axiology to understand the value(s) of tourism education. It challenges us to be creative in facilitating learning. It does this through its provocative questions and innovative student activities. And it challenges us to have a transformative effect on our students. It does this by engaging students with the pressing issues of tourism. The authors are to be commended for their practical scholarship, their collaborative approach to writing and for bringing clarity to complex issues. Highly recommended.’ -- John Tribe, York St. John University, UKTable of ContentsContents: Preface xxi Johan Edelheim, Marion Joppe and Joan Flaherty 1 Tourism didactics 1 Johan Edelheim; Marion Joppe; Joan Flaherty; Barkathunnisha Abu Bakar; Elin Bommenel; Richard Ek; Stuart Reid; Mette Simonsen Abildgaard; Karla A.
