Deep Design Thinking
This book is a manifesto urging deeper thought about what we design as well as how and why we design. As design thinking deepens, its reach widens, making this a book not just for designers but also for policymakers, government ministers, company CEOs and other makers-of-big-decisions. The world we live in presents a myriad of complex, critical challenges which design thinking has the potential to resolve. The hope in writing this book is that when future generations look back and reflect on how we succeeded in steering away from our climate-warming, species-killing, polluting habits of the past towards a more productive, life-fulfilling and equitable future, they might see the hand of deep design thinking on the tiller. Seaton and Mike Baxter are father and son who have both been Professors of Design and have contributed, over several decades between them, to the fields of ecological design, product design and strategy design. This book is the result of many years of discussions between them on the nature of design and the ideas and practicalities that lead to deep design thinking.

On the frontier, men go off, and suicide isn’t exactly unknown. Lambert had few friends and even less money. Word is that he didn’t have an enemy in the world. But Marshall Mike Baxter isn’t buying it—not until he knows a lot more about poor old Lambert. A short story in the classic Western tradition.

Hannah's Child
In 2001 Stanley Hauerwas was voted 'America's best theologian' by "Time Magazine". Here are Hauerwas' long-awaited memoirs. A loving, hard-working, godly couple has long been denied a family of their own. Finally, the wife makes a deal with God: if he blesses her with a child, she will dedicate that child to God's service. The result of that prayer was the birth of an influential - some say prophetic - voice. Surprisingly, this is not the biblical story of Samuel but the account of Stanley Hauerwas, one of today's leading theologians in the church and the academy. The story of Hauerwas' journey into Christian discipleship is captivating and inspiring. With genuine humility, he describes his intellectual struggles with faith, how he has dealt with the reality of marriage to a mentally ill partner, and the gift of friendships that have influenced his character. Throughout the narrative shines Hauerwas' conviction that the tale of his life is worth telling only because of the greater Christian story providing foundation and direction for his own.
Archaeology in the Making
Archaeology in the Making is a collection of bold statements about archaeology, its history, how it works, and why it is more important than ever. This book comprises conversations about archaeology among some of its notable contemporary figures. They delve deeply into the questions that have come to fascinate archaeologists over the last forty years or so, those that concern major events in human history such as the origins of agriculture and the state, and questions about the way archaeologists go about their work. Many of the conversations highlight quite intensely held personal insight into what motivates us to pursue archaeology; some may even be termed outrageous in the light they shed on the way archaeological institutions operate – excavation teams, professional associations, university departments. Archaeology in the Making is a unique document detailing the history of archaeology in second half of the 20th century to the present day through the words of some of its key proponents. It will be invaluable for anybody who wants to understand the theory and practice of this ever developing discipline.
