The Diversity Consultant Cookbook Preparing for the Challenge

The Diversity Consultant Cookbook Preparing for the Challenge

Written to advise how to get started in and develop a career as diversity consultants. This succinct cookbook provides the guidance to get you going and succeed. The cookbook metaphor reflects the delicate nature of diversity consulting where the little things can make a significant difference in the final outcome. As with cooking where a dash of seasoning the choice of temperature or cooking time impact the final dish so the wrong balance in creating an environment that is welcoming and constructive while addressing issues that may be disorienting for the audience can ruin a presentation before it gets started. Like a cookbook this book is set out in small chunks. It covers the need to audit and enhance your skills and knowledge establish your brand and what you distinctively bring to the table develop your outreach and contacts and learn to listen to clients to determine what interventions will achieve their long-term goals. It addresses developing your strategic plan with a clear sense of mission vision and values; moves on to topics such as financial planning pricing contracts scheduling and considerations about presentation styles and handouts; and gets down to the specifics of marketing with ideas on business cards websites networking and even how to dress. For anyone contemplating embarking on a career as a diversity consultant – either part-time while holding an existing position or as a full-time endeavor this is an invaluable guide for getting started and for keeping at your side as you develop your practice. | The Diversity Consultant Cookbook Preparing for the Challenge

Taking Off Domestic Building Construction An Introduction to Building Quantities

Taking Off Domestic Building Construction An Introduction to Building Quantities

This book provides a detailed step-by-step guide to taking off building work. It is pitched at a basic introductory level especially suitable for technicians entering the construction industry from school perhaps intending to follow a trade or technical career. An ideal workbook for students of quantity surveying construction and civil engineering when learning to measure building work. It introduces students to the most basic aspects of measurement and prepares them for learning the more complex areas of taking off. The book works through examples based on the measurement of a simple traditional pair of semi-detached (duplex) houses with the relevant construction technology explained throughout. Although the format largely follows United Kingdom taking-off practice and conventions it will be directly applicable to international practice in countries broadly following United Kingdom conventions. Each chapter presents a worked example from the substructure through to masonry walls upper floors roofing internal finishes windows and doors. The examples are matched to an exercise for students and include a commentary of why and how the take-off work is being done. Concentrating specifically on the skilled task of taking off the examples are designed to give confidence and practice rather than theoretical knowledge. This practical book is ideal for use on the Design Surveying and Planning T Level; HNC Construction; and undergraduate and non-cognate postgraduate courses in Quantity Surveying Construction and Building Surveying. | Taking Off Domestic Building Construction An Introduction to Building Quantities

Food and Knowledge in Renaissance Italy Bartolomeo Scappi's Paper Kitchens

Food and Knowledge in Renaissance Italy Bartolomeo Scappi's Paper Kitchens

Though Bartolomeo Scappi's Opera (1570) the first illustrated cookbook is well known to historians of food up to now there has been no study of its illustrations unique in printed books through the early seventeenth century. In Food and Knowledge in Renaissance Italy Krohn both treats the illustrations in Scappi's cookbook as visual evidence for a lost material reality; and through the illustrations including several newly-discovered hand-colored examples connects Scappi's Opera with other types of late Renaissance illustrated books. What emerges from both of these approaches is a new way of thinking about the place of cookbooks in the history of knowledge. Krohn argues that with the increasing professionalization of many skills and trades Scappi was at the vanguard of a new way of looking not just at the kitchen-as workshop or laboratory-but at the ways in which artisanal knowledge was visualized and disseminated by a range of craftsmen from engineers to architects. The recipes in Scappi's Opera belong on the one hand to a genre of cookery books household manuals and courtesy books that was well established by the middle of the sixteenth century but the illustrations suggest connections to an entirely different and emergent world of knowledge. It is through study of the illustrations that these connections are discerned explained and interpreted. As one of the most important cookbooks for early modern Europe the time is ripe for a focused study of Scappi's Opera in the various contexts in which Krohn frames it: book history antiquarianism and visual studies. | Food and Knowledge in Renaissance Italy Bartolomeo Scappi's Paper Kitchens

Targeted Killings Law and Counter-Terrorism Effectiveness Does Fair Play Pay Off?

Targeted Killings Law and Counter-Terrorism Effectiveness Does Fair Play Pay Off?

This book examines the permissibility and effectiveness of targeted killing in campaigns against terror. Targeted killing has become a primary counterterrorism measure used by several countries in their confrontation with lethal threats. The practice has been extensively used by the US in Afghanistan Iraq Pakistan Yemen and Somalia and by Israel in the West Bank and Gaza. Several studies have already explored the difficult balance between achieving security while maintaining the liberties and rights of a country’s civilians. This book goes a step further by seeking to examine whether maintaining those liberties by complying with legal standards and minimizing unintended deaths can be more effective for national security. Using targeted killing applied by Israel in particular as well as the United States during the first decade of the twenty-first century as case studies this book explores that question and ultimately assesses whether compliance with legal standards can strengthen a state in its campaign against terrorism and thus provide stronger security. The book focuses on civilian-related criteria hypothesizing that minimizing civilian casualties will maximize effectiveness in an asymmetric war setting. The conclusions are not limited to a specific tactic or theater and if adopted might have far-reaching implications for how asymmetric warfare is strategized. This book will be of much interest to students of counter-terrorism law Middle Eastern studies and security studies. | Targeted Killings Law and Counter-Terrorism Effectiveness Does Fair Play Pay Off?

Psychoanalysing Ambivalence with Freud and Lacan On and Off the Couch

Psychoanalysing Ambivalence with Freud and Lacan On and Off the Couch

Taking a deep dive into contemporary Western culture this book suggests we are all fundamentally ambivalent beings. A great deal has been written about how to love – to be kinder more empathic a better person and so on. But trying to love without dealing with our ambivalence with our hatred is often a recipe for failure. Any attempt therefore to love our neighbour as ourselves – or even for that matter to love ourselves – must recognise that we love where we hate and we hate where we love. Psychoanalysis beginning with Freud has claimed that to be in two minds about something or someone is characteristic of human subjectivity. Owens and Swales trace the concept of ambivalence through its various iterations in Freudian and Lacanian psychoanalysis in order to question how the contemporary subject deals with its ambivalence. They argue that experiences of ambivalence are in present-day cultural life increasingly excised or foreclosed and that this foreclosure has symptomatic effects at the individual as well as social level. Owens and Swales examine ambivalence as it is at work in mourning in matters of sexuality and in our enjoyment under neoliberalism and capitalism. Above all the authors consider how today’s ambivalent subject relates to the racially religiously culturally or sexually different neighbour as a result of the current societal dictate of complete tolerance of the other. In this vein Owens and Swales argue that ambivalence about one’s own jouissance is at the very roots of xenophobia. Peppered with relevant and stimulating examples from clinical work film television politics and everyday life Psychoanalysing Ambivalence breathes new life into an old concept and will appeal to any reader academic or clinician with an interest in psychoanalytic ideas. | Psychoanalysing Ambivalence with Freud and Lacan On and Off the Couch

Mind the Gap Global Learning at Home and Abroad

Mind the Gap Global Learning at Home and Abroad

There is growing awareness that global learning is not confined to university credit-bearing off campus international programs and that institutions of higher learning have up until now conceived of global education too narrowly. Global learning through study abroad and off-campus domestic study fits into a larger context of students’ educational experiences. You can find global learning as part of other high-impact practices; domestic off-campus programs undergraduate research and service- or community-based learning all can be global learning opportunities. On-campus global learning can occur in the disciplines and in the core curriculum as well. Language and culture anthropology sociology and other departments multicultural centers and diversity and inclusivity offices to name a few also teach students to be global learners. Global learning pertains to the many staff and faculty educators who intentionally encourage students to engage with and successfully navigate difference. Thus there is a growing need for bridging across disciplinary and administrative silos silos that are culturally bound within academia. The gaps between these silos matter as students seek to integrate off- and on-campus learning. Higher education needs a new holistic assessment of global learning. This book investigates not just student learning but also faculty experiences program structures and pathways that impact global learning and expands the context of global learning to show its antecedents and impacts as a part of the larger higher education experience. Chapters look at recent developments such as short-term off-campus international study and certificate/medallion programs as well as blended learning environments and undergraduate research all in the context of multi-institutional comparisons. Global learning is also situated in a larger university context. A Series on Engaged Learning and Teaching Book.
