Advances in the Human Side of Service Engineering

Louis E. Freund and James C. Spohrer

This book describes the emerging field known as the human-side of service engineering. If there is any one element to the engineering of service systems that is unique, it is the extent to which the suitability of the system for human use, human service, and excellent human experience has been and must always be considered. Contributors to this book explore the wide range of ways in which Human Factors Engineering, Ergonomics, Human Computer Interaction (HCI), Usability Testing, Attitude and Opinion Assessment, Servicescape Designs and Evaluations, Cognitive Engineering, Psychometrics, Training for Service Delivery, Co-Creation and Co-Production, Service Levels and Cost Effectiveness, Call Center Engineering, Customer Support Engineering, and many other areas relate to and impact the human-side of engineering service systems.
Global Rights and Perceptions

Avantika Rohatgi

In Global Rights and Perceptions students read from a wide variety of original sources—foreign policy journals, non-fiction books, medical journals, and current affairs magazines on how human rights are currently being violated through practices such as human trafficking, female genital mutilation, organ trade, and female feticide. This varied exposure gives students several gateways through which to approach complex social issues, think and write about them with awareness and engagement. Based on the premise that students must be pulled away from a highly commercial, digitally perfect present, and encouraged to intelligently and passionately examine an imperfect world with a view to changing it, the book provides a well-rounded education on global rights, and the lack thereof, in our modern world.

Lee de Forest: King of Radio, Television, and Film

Mike Adams

Yale Ph.D. Lee de Forest took 19th Century science and turned it into the electronic entertainment media of the 20th Century. In 1907 he patented his signature invention, the vacuum tube, to be a transmitter, receiver and amplifier of sound. He experimented with the broadcast of music and started several radio stations. Beginning in 1918 he patented a system of writing sound on motion picture film for synchronized talking pictures. His tube was the key as it allowed amplification of sound using loudspeakers and made it possible for audiences to experience both radio and talking pictures. He supplied the missing voice to the motion picture for which he received an Oscar.
Mentorship of Special Educators

Jennifer C. Booker Madigan and Georganne S. Schroth-Cavataio

Revolution of Forms: Cuba's Forgotten Art Schools

John Loomis

This book examines the convergence and collision of architecture, ideology, and culture in 1960s Cuba through the architectural design for the Escuelas Nacionales de Arte.

In addition, the book has provided the inspiration for a documentary film, Unfinished Spaces by Alysa Nahmias, an art installation Utopía Posible at the 2009 Gwangju Biennial by Felipe Dulzaides, and an opera, Revolution of Forms, being developed with Robert Wilson as director.
Unnatural Rebellion: Loyalists in New York City during the Revolution

Ruma Chopra

Thousands of British Americans in the thirteen colonies rejected the War for American Independence. Shunning rebel violence as unnecessary, unlawful, and unnatural, they emphasized the natural ties of blood, kinship, language, and religion that united the colonies to Britain. This is a story of how a cross-section of colonists flocked to the British headquarters of New York City to support their ideal of reunion. These loyal Americans did not surrender their vision but creatively adapted their rhetoric and accommodated military governance to protect their long-standing bond with the mother country. They never imagined that allegiance to Britain would mean a permanent exile from their homes.

Assault on Kids: Hyper-accountability, Corporatization, Deficit Ideologies and Ruby Payne are Destroying our Schools

Roberta Ahlquist, Paul Gorski, and Theresa Montaño

This book critiques the conservative neoliberal educational reform agenda; a remaking of U.S. public schooling into a private and corporate enterprise.

The book is a social justice call to action to save public schools, and push back against this regressive agenda.
Toward a Visually Oriented School Mathematics Curriculum: Research, Theory, Practice, and Issues

Ferdinand Rivera

Toward a Visually-Oriented School Mathematics Curriculum explores a unified theory of visualization in school mathematical learning via the notion of progressive modeling. Based on the author’s longitudinal research investigations in elementary and middle school classrooms, the book provides a compelling empirical account of ways in which instruction can effectively orchestrate the transition from personally-constructed visuals, both externally-drawn and internally-derived, into more structured visual representations within the context of a socioculturally grounded mathematical activity
Dante and Italy in British Romanticism

Paul Douglass and Frederick Burwick

This volume, which brings together several of the most authoritative scholars in the field, represents a landmark in the study of Anglo-Italian literary and cultural relations in the Romantic period. It succeeds brilliantly … and throws much-needed light on a crucial period of political and social transformation in Italy, as seen from the critical but sympathetic viewpoint of contemporary British intellectuals, reaffirming the centrality of Dante’s role in the formation and interpretation of Italy’s late and contradictory identity as a nation.
Deus Ex Machina

Andrew Foster Altschul

Set behind the scenes of a reality television show, Deus Ex Machina explores the lives of players and crew as they compete, manipulate, and betray one another. In the wake of personal tragedies, the show's producer has come to question the value of his creation, and his attempts to inject something "real" into "reality" meet with resistance from the all-powerful network and wreak havoc on the deserted island where the show is being taped. When true catastrophe strikes, he finds it harder and harder to navigate this surreal landscape, where boundaries of the real, imagined, and orchestrated have blurred beyond recognition. The Wall Street Journal described Deus Ex Machina as "a heady, fast-paced novel" and NPR called it "brilliant... one of the best novels about American culture in years."
They Suck, They Bite, They Eat, They Kill: The Psychological Meaning of Supernatural Monsters in Young Adult Fiction

Joni Richards Bodart

Teen readers have always been fascinated by monsters, but lately it seems like every other young adult (YA) book is about vampires, zombies, or werewolves. These works are controversial because they look at aspects of life and human nature that adults prefer to keep hidden from teenagers. But this is also why they are so important: they provide a literal example of how ignoring life’s hazards won’t make them go away, and demonstrate that ignorance of danger puts one at greater risk. Bodart examines six different monsters in YA fiction (vampires, shapeshifters, zombies, unicorns, angels, and demons), discusses the meaning of these monsters in cultures all over the world, and explores their history and most important incarnations in teen fiction.
