What can a study of international film contribute to our understanding of education in a globalized context? How can such an exploration further push the boundaries of comparative and international education (CIE) as an academic field? In addressing these questions, Irving Epstein brings together insights from film theory, affect theory and CIE to explore the ways in which educational meanings are mediated through globalization processes. So...

Just a few decades ago, chemical oscillations were thought to be exotic reactions of only theoretical interest. Now known to govern an array of physical and biological processes, including the regulation of the heart, these oscillations are being studied by a diverse group across the sciences.This book is the first introduction to nonlinear chemical dynamics written specifically for chemists. It covers oscillating reactions, chaos, and chemica...

Excerpt from On a Fredholm Equation in Diffraction TheoryWe consider here the problem of the diffraction of a plane scalar wave normally incident on a plane screen with a circular aperture. Let u be the solution of Au K2u O, which represents the diffracted wave, and let p, 9 be polar coordinates on the screen such that p 0 represents the center of the aperture. We assume that on the screen u 0. Let the radius of the aperture be a and let Q (p)...

Excerpt from On a Fredholm Equation in Diffraction Theory We consider here the problem of the diffraction of a plane scalar wave normally incident on a plane screen with a circular aperture.

The authors of this volume address multiple questions involving the nature of youth protest in the twenty-first century. Through their use of a case study approach, they comment upon the ways in which youth protest has been influenced by the electronic and social media and evaluate the effectiveness of protest activities, many of which were framed in reaction to neo-liberalism and state authoritarianism. A number of the authors further comment...

In this volume, contributors discuss both the theoretical and practical applications of an embodied knowledge perspective, using the field of education as an exemplar. It should be noted that while the theorists whose writings are discussed in these pages, have made seminal contributions to the sociology of the body literature, it is not possible nor is it our goal to comprehensively review the theoretical discourse of everyone who has wr...
