Orwell’s “Politics and the English Language” in the Age of Pseudocracy

Orwell’s “Politics and the English Language” in the Age of Pseudocracy

Orwell’s Politics and the English Language in the Age of Pseudocracy visits the essay as if for the first time clearing away lore about the essay and responding to the prose itself. It shows how many of Orwell’s rules and admonitions are far less useful than they are famed to be but it also shows how some of them can be refurbished for our age and how his major claim—that politics corrupts language which then corrupts political discourse further and so on indefinitely—can best be re-deployed today. Politics and the English Language has encouraged generations of writers and readers and teachers and students to take great care to be skeptical and clear-sighted. The essay itself requires a fresh clear skeptical analysis so that it can with reapplication reclaim its status as a touchstone in our era of the rule of falsehood: the age of pseudocracy. | Orwell’s “Politics and the English Language” in the Age of Pseudocracy

Design for Dementia Living Well at Home

Design for Dementia Living Well at Home

Design for Dementia is written by an interdisciplinary team of professionals and academics whose aim is to present lessons learnt from the Dementia Demonstration House at the Building Research Establishment’s Innovation Park. Known as Chris and Sally’s House the project represents a unique opportunity to show in practice what can be done to assist people living with dementia to continue to live at home and as part of the community with as much independence as possible. This book presents evidence based practical design guidance backed up by over 15 combined years of research by experienced professional designers. Beginning with an introduction which provides the background to the global dementia epidemic to allow readers to gain a better understanding of the issues they must consider the book then discusses how good design principles planning and construction standards can be used to effectively respond to the dementia crisis. The detailed findings from research using Chris and Sally’s House are presented and discussed along with practical examples and success stories ranging from simple design features to the more complex use of sensors and automated ventilation. The hope is that readers can apply the lessons learnt from Chris and Sally’s House to successfully integrate solutions into the design of new or refurbished housing for the elderly and also that the tools and insights shared will inform the wider context of good housing design as well as the spectrum of constraints and design standards which often apply. This book is important reading for architects designers engineers and project managers but also anyone with an interest in learning about practical solutions to aid those with dementia to live well at home. | Design for Dementia Living Well at Home
