The Green Braid
This volume presents the discipline’s best thinking on sustainability in written, drawn, and built form, drawing on over fifteen years of peer-reviewed essays and national design awards published by the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture (ACSA). Providing a primer on sustainability, useful to teachers and students alike, the selected essays address a broad range of issues. Combined with design projects that highlight issues holistically, they promote an understanding of the principles of sustainability and further the integration of sustainable methods into architectural projects. Using essays that alternately revise and clarify twentieth century architectural thinking, The Green Braid places sustainability at the centre of excellent architectural design. No other volume addresses sustainability within the context of architectural history, theory, pedagogy and design, making this book an ideal source for architects in framing their practices, and therefore their architectural production, in a sustainable manner.
Was Clare Brought up Too Sheltered
Clare’s upbringing was in a strict, but loving Catholic household: She was sent to good local Catholic schools throughout her formative years; found lifelong friends through their local parish Youth Groups; and her parents encouraged her to succeed in all her schoolwork. Yet there were ‘gaps’ in her ability to recognise Real Life cues in relationships. As a result, Clare ended up marrying her first ‘real’ boyfriend who took her virginity despite him knowing she had wanted to wait... Clare’s ideas of who might be a ‘good’ husband was based on her own father - but both of her parents were teenagers in the 1950s and 60s. They were both raised to think of ‘Sex Outside of Marriage’, and especially those resulting in pregnancies as Shameful. Yet, it was simply carrying on what seemed to be a family tradition.

The Urban Primary School
This book offers an in-depth understanding of the unique challenges and contributions of urban primary schools. The authors set urban education in the wider social context of structural disadvantage, poverty, oppression and exclusion, and reassert some critical urban educational concerns. Recognising that practice needs to be informed by theory, they provide a strong theoretical framework alongside contemporary ethnographic data. Drawing on their extensive experience in urban primary schools, as well as numerous case studies, the authors present a fresh and stimulating view of urban primary schools which will inspire education professionals and academics alike. The Urban Primary Schoolis essential reading for teachers and trainee teachers in urban primary schools, as well as for students of education, policy-makers, parents and school governors.
