The New Politics of Home

Housing, Gender and Care in Times of Crisis

By: Eleanor Jupp,Sophie Bowlby,Jane Franklin,Sarah Marie Hall

Home and care are central aspects of everyday, personal lives, yet they are also shaped by political and economic change. Within a context of austerity, economic restructuring, worsening inequality and resource rationing, the policies and experiences around these key areas are shifting. Taking an interdisciplinary and feminist perspective, this book illustrates how economic and political changes affect everyday lives for many families and households in the UK. Setting out both new empirical material and new conceptual terrain, the authors draw on approaches from human geography, social policy, and feminist and political theory to explore issues of home and care in times of crisis.

Chapter 40. Comparison of Ribose and Ascorbic Acid in Model Process Reactions Containing Cysteine

By: Jane K. Parker,Sandra Bishara,David A. Baines,Donald S. Mottram

2-Methyl-3-furanthiol (MFT) and its derivatives were identified for the first time in heated model systems containing ascorbic acid and cysteine. More MFT was formed with ascorbic acid compared to the analogous system containing ribose. It is suggested that in the ribose/cysteine system much of the cysteine was bound up in a semi-stable thiazolidine, thus limiting the formation of H2S and the subsequent conversion of norfuraneol to MFT.

"Rhody Redlegs"

A History of the Providence Marine Corps of Artillery and the 103d Field Artillery, Rhode Island Army National Guard, 1801-2010

By: Robert Grandchamp,Jane Lancaster,Cynthia Ferguson

Formed in 1801 to protect sea captains against attack from the British navy and Barbary Pirates, the Providence Marine Corps of Artillery remains one of the most famed regiments in the U.S. Army. It distinguished itself during the War of 1812, the Dorr Rebellion, and in nearly every major engagement of the Civil War. After assuming the identity of the 103d Field Artillery Regiment of the Rhode Island National Guard, the unit battled amid the carnage of the Western Front in World War I, fought the enemy in the mosquito- infested South Pacific islands during World War II, and weathered the scorching deserts of Iraq in the twenty-first century. Based on extensive primary research and interviews with veterans of the corps, this narrative offers an insider's look at the illustrious regiment in its first full history.

Psychology in the Schools

Addressing the Learning, Behavior, and Mental Health Needs of Students

By: Elena Diamond,Shelley R. Hart,Amy Jane Griffiths,Stephen E. Brock

The Handbook

Surviving and Living with Climate Change

By: Jane Rawson,James Whitmore

Climate change has arrived, and it's not going away. In the absence of effective world action, global warming is certain to continue. The Handbook is not another book about climate change science or politics. Rather it is an intelligent guide, and a potential ground breaker, for all of us who feel helpless in the face of government disagreement, and want to know in a practical way what we can do now. Not only will The Handbook help you prepare for increased droughts, floods, fires and heatwaves, it will provide you with stories and advice from individuals who are already quietly doing amazing things. Jane Rawson and James Whitmore, previously Environment editors for The Conversation, look at how to establish your risk and face your fears; where to live and with whom; and how to survive heat, fire and flood. They investigate ways to provide your own food, power and water, make sure you can still get around, and get rid of your waste and sewage. They talk about new ways to think about home and possessions, the sadness of living through climate change, and how, for both individual and common good, we might positively change the way we live. The Handbook is both practical and philosophical. It can be read cover-to-cover, or dipped into when you need specific advice. It can help you plan and execute a strategy to deal with the effects of climate change. It might change your life. But it should also make you ask, does it really have to be this way?
