Ronald I.C. Bartsch
No other eld of human endeavour is so directly and intrinsically dependent upon the international context than is the case with aviation. This book explains, in a digestible yet articulate style, the basis and structure of the law as it applies to the modern world of aviation. From a personal perspective International Aviation Law provided me with a far greater appreciation of the extent to which the law and regulations impinges upon virtually every facet of the industry. More importantly, a good understanding of aviation law could help avert a major disaster for the Company. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has any involvement in the aviation industry.

Writing Human Factors Research Papers

A Guidebook
Don Harris, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China and Leicester University, UK
The most difcult challenge facing early career researchers is making the transition from researcher to published researcher. In what I can honestly say is one of the most useful books I have ever read, Don Harris provides detailed step-by-step guidance for researchers wishing to publish their work in peer-reviewed academic journals. Just about everything budding authors need to know is covered, ranging from impact factors and citation rates to specic guidance on structure, writing style, and responding to reviewers comments. With the threat to publish or perish looming as large as ever, this book makes a timely and essential addition to the Human Factors catalogue. Written in Dons own unique style, it is a joy to read, and is a must have for students, early career researchers, and even experienced academics wishing to enhance academic outputs. Buy it now and become prolicyou will thank Don later. Paul Salmon, Monash University, Australia It is one thing to write a good scientic paper; it is quite another thing to get it published. Don Harris draws upon nearly a quarter of a century of experience as an author and reviewer of research papers, and ultimately as a journal editor. By his own admission, it contains all the things he wished that his mentors had told him 25 years ago, but did not. The material in the book is drawn from many years of nding all these things out for himself.

Business Architecture
A Practical Guide
Jonathan Whelan and Graham Meaden
Business Architecture is very challenging to do and even harder to describe, being inherently multi-dimensional in nature. The authors of this book have done well to distil their considerable experience into a handbook that provides valuable advice to help organisations develop their capability in managing business change. Sally Bean, Enterprise Architecture Consultant Organizations today exist in an environment of unprecedented change. They do so against a backdrop of a global, competitive marketplace, the fast-paced enablement of technology, amplied regulation and accelerating organizational complexity. Many organizations are addressing change in a sub-optimal way and they are operating without a clear view of where their operational risks lie. It is these dynamics that are leading organizations to recognise and embrace Business Architecture. With these challenges in mind, this book provides a practical guide on how to employ Business Architecture and how to build a balanced proposition that delivers value to a broad range of stakeholders. Whilst recognizing best-practice, this book explores a new, inspirational level of Business Architecture whilst acknowledging that the best way to realize the vision is one step at a time.

Practical Wisdom is slowly becoming one of the more important issues in contemporary management thinking and this excellent new book is an ideal introduction to the topic. Covering all of the many facets and dimensions of this type of wisdom, it has the merits of being very clearly written and exceptionally well researched. I cannot imagine anyone not intrigued by the subject after reading it and then trying to do something to increase their own practice of wisdom. Highly recommended. Larry Prusak, Columbia University, USA This handbook serves as a medium for reassessing and rearticulating more responsible ways of praxis in the eld of organization and management.

Timber
English Heritage
I found the content of the book to be both interesting and very informative. It certainly made me wonder just how much we have wasted, in particular, through replacement of windows where simple professional repair would have been both more cost effective and would have retained the original features. It also made me think just how much money we waste on treatment of timber when if property surveys are carried out by the right people the solutions can end up far more cost effective and less destructive to the building fabric. Building Engineer Timber deals with wide-ranging use of the material in historic buildings, from vast structural timber-frames through to high-class joinery and simple xings. Particular attention is paid to how and why timber decays or faults occur, and the methods of assessing and dealing with this. The bulk of the book covers appropriate methods of repair and maintenance. Includes 515 colour and 31 b&w illustrations March 2012 Hardback 498 pages 978-0-7546-4554-2 65.00 / $124.95

The Ashgate Research Companion to Modern Imperial Histories

Edited by Philippa Levine, University of Texas, USA and John Marriott, University of East London, UK
The Ashgate Research Companion to Modern Imperial Histories is a uidly written, comprehensive, and authoritative approach to the current state of the knowledge and conceptions of empire that will be an essential tool for students and researchers alike. Michael Charney, SOAS, University of London, UK Taking a broad, comparative approach to imperial experiences, this volume provides an authoritative survey of the latest research into the histories of modern empires. The focus is on the era of modern imperial history dating approximately from the early sixteenth century to the present.

The Ashgate Research Companion to Byzantine Hagiography

Volume II: Genres and Contexts
Edited by Stephanos Efthymiadis, Open University of Cyprus
For an entire millennium, Byzantine hagiography, inspired by the veneration of many saints, exhibited literary dynamism and a capacity to vary its basic forms. The subgenres into which it branched out after its remarkable start in the fourth century underwent alternating phases of development and decline that were intertwined with changes in the political, social and literary spheres. The seventeen chapters in this companion form the sequel to those in volume I which dealt with the periods and regions of Byzantine hagiography, and complete the rst comprehensive survey ever produced in this eld. The book is the work of an international group of experts in the eld and is addressed to both a broader public and the scholarly community of Byzantinists, medievalists, historians of religion and theorists of narrative. It highlights the literary dimension and the research potential of a representative number of texts, not only those appreciated by the Byzantines themselves but those which modern readers rank high due to their literary quality or historical relevance.

Petrarchs English Laurels, 14751700

A Compendium of Printed References and Allusions
Compiled by Jackson Campbell Boswell, Folger Shakespeare Library, USA and Gordon McMurry Braden, University of Virginia, USA
Petrarchs English Laurels offers a comprehensive, chronological presentation of the evidence for Petrarchs evolving reception and inuence throughout the long English Renaissance, 1475-1700. Here is all the evidence scholars need as set forth in the ages printed books for a detailed and accurate analysis of Petrarchs role and reputation during that time. Boswell and Braden excerpt references to Petrarchs life as well as to his writings including summary allusions, quotations, and translations. Generous old-spelling quotations from the primary sources provide full contexts for these excerpts, supplemented by concise, authoritative editorial notes on the authors and works in which they appear. Readers will learn from this work that Petrarchs inuence on English love poetry was almost a sideline compared to his inuence on such unrelated spheres as Reformation polemic, above all the attack on the papacy, but also moral instruction in general ranging from strictures against dancing to his warnings about second marriages. Petrarchs English Laurels will be mined for evidence in support of a very wide variety of studies in many disciplines, including religious and cultural history, philosophy, literature, and rhetoric. Steven W. May, Emory University, USA The powerful inuence of Petrarch on the development of Renaissance vernacular poetry has long been recognized as one of the major factors in early modern cultural history; this work provides a far more comprehensive catalogue of the direct evidence for that inuence in England than any yet available. It offers an itemised presentation, year by year, of printed citations, translations and allusions, with complete bibliographical information, quotations of the relevant passages and brief commentary.
