This book, although light in tone, has a serious intent: to reassure trainee and beginning teachers that are parachuted into difficult schools without anything like the right level of preparation. Tom Bennett walks you through the training and initial teaching practice, offering practical advice and wisdom from the more experienced vantage point of hindsight. This double-narrator style allows you to identify with the situation, learn from the experience and then critically reflect on your own teaching journey.

Using Chicago as a case study of the interconnectedness of neoliberal urban policies on housing, economic development, race, and education, Lipman explores larger implications for equity, justice, and “the right to the city”. Her synthesis of these lenses gives added weight to her critical appraisal and hope for the future, offering a significant contribution to current arguments about urban schooling and how we think about relations between neoliberal education reforms and the transformation of cities. $52.00 Pb, ISBN 9780415802246, NZRP$66.00 Publish May 2011, 240 pages Routledge Quantity Education
International comparison makes it possible to gain perspective on the issue of ‘School Choice’, and this book profiles - historically and in current policies - two countries which give most support to parental choice (The Netherlands and Belgium) and two others which maintain a strong State role in controlling education (Germany and Austria).

Glenn has read extensively in Dutch, French, and German sources, and brings to his analysis several decades of experience as a government official in education. $44.00 Pb, ISBN 9781441145628, NZRP$54.00 Publish May 2011, 272 pages Continuum Quantity Education

Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector
Around and About Stock Orchard Street
Fourth Edition
Sarah Wigglesworth, University of Sheffield, UK.
Ann Gravells, Bishop Burton College.
9/10 Stock Orchard Street, colloquially known as the Straw House, is a house and an office designed by two architects for their own use. Completed in 2000, the buildings were experimental in design, execution and inhabitation, and have resisted categorization, challenging received wisdom and provoking debate, especially among architectural critics. With access to all the material records of the project, this book responds to that debate by presenting multi-faceted narratives from a wide range of writers that have been invited to reflect both positively and negatively on what the buildings represent and how they have performed. $72.00 Pb, ISBN 9780415575294, NZRP$90.00 Publish May 2011, 288 pages Routledge Quantity Architecture

As a result, it becomes possible to identify the causal factors that underlie giving, and to design effective intervention programs that can help increase the likelihood and amount that people contribute to a cause.

Palgrave Macmillan Publishing Locally Transforming the Curriculum through the Arts By Dr Robyn Gibson and Professor Robyn Ewing
Transforming the Curriculum through the Arts offers something to every teacher who is concerned about the lack of creativity and imagination in today’s curriculum.
There is much evidence to suggest that the Arts can make a unique contribution to the lives of young people, their learning and their ability to be creative and imaginative thinkers. Transforming the Curriculum through the Arts supports this idea by presenting the Arts as being central to children’s development and as such provides a muchneeded framework for arts–enriched learning and teaching strategies across the primary and middle years curriculum. Based on current national and international research, this book presents a well-grounded rationale for embedding the Arts into the curriculum. Key learning areas are addressed in meaningful, relevant, interesting and creative ways. Innovative exemplars, many written and implemented by practising teachers, are clearly demonstrated.

Jean Boase-Beier’s A Critical Introduction To Translation Studies demonstrates a keen understanding of theoretical and practical translation. It looks to instances where translation might not be straightforward, where stylistics play an important role. Examples are discussed from works of literature, advertisements, journalism and others, where effects on the reader are central to the text, and are reflected in the style. Throughout, it is conscious of the relationship between theory and practice in translation. This book offers a new approach to translation, grounded in stylistics, and it will be an invaluable resource for undergraduates and postgraduates approaching translation studies. $55.00 Pb, ISBN 9780826435255, NZRP$69.00 Publish May 2011, 200 pages Continuum Quantity Linguistics

This book demonstrates Australia’s environment is under unprecedented stress, which is now all too real in terms of problems such as rising sea levels, catastrophic bush fires, drought and dying river systems. This book argues that this stress is more than a failure of environmental management, and indeed more even than a failure of political will, although that has been critical. It reveals, case by case, the nature of environmental policy failure, as a characteristic failure for example of both Labor and conservative governments across many generations. $69.95 Pb, ISBN 9780734611406, NZRP$83.95 Publish May 2011, 350 pages Tilde University Press Quantity Politics
