Dirigir la escuela 0-3
El libro presenta desde las bases éticas que permiten afrontar la responsabilidad de educar a niños y niñas en sus primeros tres años de vida, hasta los principios de la buena dirección y gestión aplicados a la escuela 0-3. También presenta una revisión de los principios normativos que regulan las escuelas 0-3, el importante tema del liderazgo, consejos para orientar la escuela hacia una mayor calidad, guías para conducir la imprescindible relación familia-escuela y modelos de actuación en la resolución de conflictos. Aunque en las últimas décadas se ha escrito mucho sobre dirección escolar, lo cierto es que la escuela 0-3 ha quedado relegada, hasta la fecha, de esta importante disciplina. Esta obra quiere salir al paso de esta falta de marcos teórico-prácticos de referencia en la escuela 0-3, y aportar algunos fundamentos sólidos que ayuden a mejorar la dirección de la escuela 0-3.
Uses of Television
How does television function within society? Why have both its programmes and its audiences been so widely denigrated? Taking inspiration from Richard Hoggarts classic study The Uses of Literacy, John Hartleys new book is a lucid defence of the place of television in our lives, and of the usefulness of television studies. Hartley re-conceptualizes television as a transmodern medium, capable of reuniting government, education and media, and of creating a new kind of cultural teaching which facilitates communication across social and geographical boundaries. He provides a historical framework for the development of both television and television studies, his focus ranging from an analysis of the early documentary Housing Problems, to the much-overlooked cultural impact of the refrigerator.
The Myth of Media Violence
The Myth of Media Violence: A Critical Introduction assesses the current and historical debates over violence in film, television, and video games; extends the conversation beyond simple condemnation or support; and addresses a diverse range of issues and influences.

Examines the forces behind the encouraged anxieties about media violence. Uses examples drawn from a range of media, including disaster and horror movies, science fiction, film tie-in toys, crime shows, MTV, news, sports, and children’s television programming, books and video games. Includes a closing chapter about why media violence exists as it does in our culture, and what we can do about it.

Corpus of Mesopotamian Anti-Witchcraft Rituals
Among the most important sources for understanding the cultures and systems of thought of ancient Mesopotamia is a large body of magical and medical texts written in the Sumerian and Akkadian languages. An especially significant branch of this literature centres upon witchcraft. Mesopotamian anti-witchcraft rituals and incantations attribute ill-health and misfortune to the magic machinations of witches and prescribe ceremonies, devices, and treatments for dispelling witchcraft, destroying the witch, and protecting and curing the patient. The Corpus of Mesopotamian Anti-Witchcraft Rituals aims to present a reconstruction of this body of texts; it provides critical editions of the relevant rituals and prescriptions based on the study of the cuneiform tablets and fragments recovered from the libraries of ancient Mesopotamia. "Now that we have the second volume, we the more admire the thoughtful organisation of the entire project, the strict methods followed, and the insightful observations and decisions made." - Martin Stol, in: Bibliotheca Orientalis LXXIV n° 3-4 (mei-augustus 2017)
Ill Effects
The influence of the media remains a contentious issue. Every time a particularly high-profile crime of violence is committed, there are those who blame the effects of the media. The familiar culprits of cinema, television, video and rock music, have now been joined, particularly in the wake of the massacre at Columbine High, by the Internet and the World Wide Web. Yet, any real evidence that the media do actually have such negative effects remains as elusive as ever and, consequently, the debate about effects frequently ends up as being little more than strident and rhetorical appeals to 'common sense'. Ill Effects argues that the question of media influence needs to be debated by those wit...
