With over a decade of experience, Palgrave Macmillan continues to offer the latest scholarship in a wide range of topics in the ever-relevant field of education. In such diverse areas as international and comparative education, gender, peace studies, early childhood development, and from primary to higher education, we are proud to present our new releases. Dan Butin’s much anticipated Service-Learning in Theory and Practice: The Future of Community Engagement in Higher Education provides a cutting edge analysis of the rise and expansion of the community engagement movement in general and the service-learning field in specific. And from A.G. Rud, we offer Albert Schweitzer’s Legacy for Education: Reverence for Life, the first book devoted to the study of the thought of Albert Schweitzer as it relates to educational theory and practice. We are excited to introduce the first offerings from our new series Postcolonial Studies in Education, including Education and Gendered Citizenship in Pakistan by M. Ayaz Naseem, which challenges the uncritical use of the long-held dictum of the development discourse that education empowers women. Our International Development and Education series continues to release groundbreaking work like Wiliam F. Pinar’s edited work, Curriculum Studies in South Africa: Intellectual Histories & Present Circumstances, which offers glimpses of South African curriculum studies described by six distinctive points of view. Finally, from our Secondary Education in a Changing World series, we offer Joyce Goodman’s edited Girls’ Secondary Education in the Western World: From the 18th to the 20th Century, a collection of essays that focus on the gendered cultural expectations of the middle classes and upper classes, given the relatively recent democratization of European educational systems.

‘Based on compelling empirical evidence, this volume offers important insights into the moral integrity of pupils and teachers in the face of hostile immigration policy. It is a vital contribution to current debates internationally on the challenges to the integration of refugee and asylum seeking children.’ - Jo Boyden, Director of the Young Lives Research Centre, University of Oxford, UK Refugees are physically and symbolically ‘out of place’ - their presence forces governments to address issues of rights and moral obligations.

An International Comparison of Pupil Perspectives

Perspectives on Development, Education, and Culture Edited by Dip Kapoor, Associate Professor of Educational Policy Studies, University of Alberta, Canada and Edward Shizha, Assistant Professor, Department of Contemporary Studies and Children’s Education, Sir Wilfred Laurier University, Canada
Equity in Education
'In this balanced but critical study, Michael S. Merry tackles the highly controversial issue of identity formation and the education of Muslim children in non-Muslim or even antiMuslim cultures. In accessible language, Merry articulates the philosophical and political underpinnings of Islamic schooling and then confronts these with the empirical practices of the US, the Netherlands, and Belgium. This thoughtprovoking book is a must for the international audience of educators, policymakers, religious scholars, and philosophers interested in schooling and Islam.’ - Geert Driessen, Senior Educational Researcher, Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands Merry elaborates an ideal type of Islamic philosophy of education in order to examine the specific challenges that Islamic schools face, comparing the different educational realities facing Muslim populations in the Netherlands, Belgium, and the United States.
Stephen Gorard, Professor of Education Research and Emma Smith, Reader in Education, both at University of Birmingham, UK
Based on the views of teenagers across Europe and in the Far East, this book argues that we need to reconsider how we judge schools and what they are for. It shows that the treatment of pupils in schools makes more difference to teenagers’ views on society, and on what it means to be fair, than it does to differences in attainment.

Women’s Rights, Racial Integration, and Education from 1850–1920 The Case of Sarah Raymond, the First Female Superintendent Monica Cousins Noraian, Director of the History-Social Sciences Education Program and Director of Student Teaching, Illinois State University, USA

As the first woman in the country to serve as superintendent of a city school system, she signaled a fundamental shift in how communities understood leadership – and leaders.

Doing a Successful Research Project
Culture, Consumerism and Promotion in the ELT Global Coursebook John Gray, Senior Lecturer in TESOL/Applied Linguistics, University of East London, UK
This book takes the view that ELT global coursebooks, in addition to being curriculum artefacts, are also highly wrought cultural artefacts which seek to make English mean in highly selective ways and it argues that the textual construction (and imaging) of English parallels the processes of commodity promotion more generally.

Graduate Study for the 21st Century How to Build an Academic Career in the Humanities 2nd Revised and Updated edition Gregory Colón Semenza, Associate Professor of English and Director of Graduate Studies, University of Connecticut, USA Foreword by Michael Bérubé
‘Gregory Semenza’s Graduate Study for the Twenty-first Century is a tough-minded, witty, generous discussion of how to enter the profession of scholarship and teaching. The appendices alone are worth the price of the book; Semenza provides samples of everything from course syllabi and job letters to materials on the teaching portfolio, book prospectus, conference participation – everything a serious graduate student needs to succeed. The book should be required reading for graduate students and their professors.’ - Barry V. Qualls, Dean of Humanities, Rutgers University, USA In a straightforward manner, Semenza identifies the obstacles along the path of the academic career and offers tangible advice. Fully revised and updated, this edition’s new material on advising, electronic publishing, and the post-financial crisis humanities job market will help students negotiate the changing landscape of academia. Contents: Foreword: M.Bérubé / Introduction / The Culture of a Graduate Program / The Structure of a Graduate Career / Organization and Time Management / The Graduate Seminar / The Seminar Paper / Teaching / Exams / The Dissertation / Attending Conferences / Publishing / Service and Participation / The Job Market / Appendix A: Sample CVs / Appendix B: Sample Syllabi / Appendix C: Sample Teaching Portfolios / Appendix D: Examination Materials / Appendix E: Sample Dissertation Prospectus / Appendix F: Conference Materials / Appendix G: Book Prospectus Materials / Appendix H: Job Market Materials / Index March 2010 Paperback
