Patrick White (1912-1990) won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1973 and remains one of Australia's most celebrated writers. This book represents new work by an outstanding list of White scholars from around the globe. White's centenary revived mainstream interest in White in Australia and included a major exhibition on his life at the National Library of Australia. So too did the discovery of a highly significant hoard of hitherto unknown papers which were released by White's literary executor Barbara Mobbs in 2006. The book aims to carry this momentum outwards to the rest of the world.
The contributors' research is lodged in forwards-oriented methodologies and expressed in accessible language. On the whole, the collection is notable for its acknowledgement of White's homosexuality in relation to the development of his literary style, in its consideration of the way his writing 'works' on/with readers, and for its contextualizing of his life and oeuvre in relation to London and to London life.
The title of the book reflects the effect on White scholarship of the newly discovered papers, the focus of numerous chapters on the farcical and 'knockabout' qualities of White's work, and the contributors' intention to inspire further work on White from a rising generation of scholars of twentieth-century literature beyond Australia.
College athletes are at the very center of emerging campus debates over their legal, financial, and academic role. Amid ongoing litigation and pressure from internal and external stakeholders, many policy makers and university leaders are scrambling to determine the nature of this role. This timely and comprehensive volume identifies and discusses bylaws and legal decisions that have impacted the college athlete's ability to pursue higher education. It also explains and critiques the formal policies of the National Collegiate Athletic Association and member institutions while examining critical issues relevant to the growing fields of sport management, athletic administration, and sports law.
Aimed at anyone seeking to enhance their understanding of the intercollegiate athletics landscape, College Athletes' Rights and Well-Being is divided into four sections. The first lays out the historical foundations that have shaped the intercollegiate athletic experience. Subsequent sections describe the principles, structures, and conditions that influence how athletes experience campus life, as well as the increasingly commercialized business enterprise of college sports.
Told from the perspective of athletes and written by leading scholars and researchers, the book's sixteen chapters are enhanced with useful lists of key terms and conversation-provoking discussion questions. Touching on everything from concussion protocols and collective bargaining to amateurism, Title IX's gender-separate allowance, and conference realignment, this important book is designed for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students, scholars, educators, practitioners, policy makers, athletic administrators, and advocates of college athletes.

Описание: Over the last two decades, an increasingly economistic discourse has dominated discussions about adult literacy and numeracy. This book provides critiques of, and alternative narratives to the dominant discourse.Authors provide tools and methodologies of critique, including ways of seeing how policies in the countries of focus come to be captured almost completely by the interests of business and industry, as well as how to critically interpret the data that policy makers use to justify their priorities. But adult literacy and numeracy practitioners and learners find spaces and places to pursue learning that matters for the lived experiences of adults and their communities.Beyond Economic Interests presents the struggles and achievements of practitioners and learners that lead the readers of the book to critically appreciate that a counter narrative to the purely economistic discourse of adult literacy and numeracy is much needed, and possible.

Concerned that you (and your kids?) spend way too much time on devices and screens?
Is this an unhealthy habit that can be controlled whenever you choose to cut back, or are you hopelessly hooked?
Do you find it tough to get your kids (even the adult ones) off their phones at mealtimes to connect with each other? And to get outside to connect with nature?
Now there's a way to find tech balance and use social media, smartphones, WiFi and "Smart" devices more safely.
Too much screen time can be hazardous to your brain, heart and mental health.Concerned about phone or screen addiction and the disconnect from others and nature, especially youth and indoor kids?
An international team of experts offers their latest research and recommendations with The Mindful Tech Plan: effective ways to unplug from your electronic gadgets and social media.
Reconnect with yourself and others out in nature - digital detox made fun. Learn about the safer tech solutions for mobile phones, headsets, wireless connectivity and 'smart' devices. Enjoy the benefits of technology and reduce the risks.
The international team of experts who worked with me to develop this plan are also concerned, and see the need for balance. We rely on technology ourselves and know the benefits. Our program is not about discarding digital devices, or feeling guilty when using them. It is about mindful use, and more nature time. No need to spend all day outside. Research shows only 20 minutes per day significantly reduces ADHD and improves your child's attention and behaviour. Can you find 20 minutes? Kids thrive outside splashing in puddles, getting dirty and building strong immunity. It's vital they learn to love nature and develop calm, not fearful, brains. They need to self-soothe without staring at an electronic screen.
Parenting is not rocket science. These days it is much more complicated. You worried about attention deficit, now there's nature deficit as many parents believe that dangers lurk outside and the safest place is indoors. And many feel they are protecting kids by giving them cell phones so they are always within reach. If they only knew the hidden hazards of this good intention.Getting kids outside to play each day has always been a good idea. In this digital age it's essential and urgent. And balancing screen time with outdoor green time, you'll have less stress, better sleep and a more calm and focused mind in this age of digital distraction. It is vital to get our kids outside to play in nature as much as we can; to remember that all of us are inherently connected with this living, breathing earth. The greatest gift we can give children is to learn to respect and care for themselves, each other, animals, wildlife - all living beings - and our environment.
The Mindful Tech Plan focuses on this vital issue. Young adults and children need our direction and support in dealing with digital addiction so they can be healthy, confident, kind-hearted, empathetic, and socialize well.I am concerned about so many young people feeling isolated and depressed in their tech-focused lives.
