The Book of South Brent
South Brent, or just Brent as she is known to the locals, stands where the Avon leaves the bleak and dangerous southern Dartmoor heights and begins its journey through the tranquil South Hams. South Brent has long been a busy commercial centre straddling the main road and rail routes across the county of Devon. It is on the moors that the story of South Brent begins with Bronze Age Man. It continues with a Celtic saint and was influenced by the monks of Buckfast. Other features of its long and varied history include a horrific murder akin to that of St Thomas of Canterbury that took place in the church, its busy market which rivalled those of its neighbours and England's first civil servant. All this, and much more, is detailed in this 160 page book, copiously illustrated throughout with over 350 historic photographs of the places and people who have made up the thriving community of South Brent and its surrounding parish.

Future Directions for the Demography of Aging
Almost 25 years have passed since the Demography of Aging (1994) was published by the National Research Council. Future Directions for the Demography of Aging is, in many ways, the successor to that original volume. The Division of Behavioral and Social Research at the National Institute on Aging (NIA) asked the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to produce an authoritative guide to new directions in demography of aging. The papers published in this report were originally presented and discussed at a public workshop held in Washington, D.C., August 17-18, 2017. The workshop discussion made evident that major new advances had been made in the last two decades, but also ...
Paradoxes of Gender
In this pathbreaking book, a well-known feminist and sociologist--who is also the Founding Editor of Gender & Society--challenges our most basic assumptions about gender. Judith Lorber views gender as wholly a product of socialization subject to human agency, organization, and interpretation. In her new paradigm, gender is an institution comparable to the economy, the family, and religion in its significance and consequences. Drawing on many schools of feminist scholarship and on research from anthropology, history, sociology, social psychology, sociolinguistics, and cultural studies, Lorber explores different paradoxes of gender: --why we speak of only two "opposite sexes" when there is suc...

Strategic Change

Through a selection of key articles on strategic change from authors such as Senge, Handy, Argyris and Prahalad and Doz, Carnall examines how we can understand the process of change and how we can use this knowledge to create the future.
