1 Berryman, Mere (ed)
Culturally responsive methodologies / Mere Berryman,
Suzanne Soohoo and Ann Nevin.-- United Kingdom: Emerald,
2013.
xiv, 426p. 24cm.
ISBN : 9781780528144.
001.42 BER 138399
Berryman (education, U. of Waikato, New Zealand), Soohoo,
and Nevin assemble 19 chapters that demonstrate how
researchers, doctoral students, teacher educators, and
educators can research people from different cultures in
a respectful manner. Researchers in special education,
disabilities studies, multicultural studies, critical
pedagogy, linguistics and language learning, lesbian
studies, and other fields from New Zealand, the US, and
Canada present their theories and practices within an
alternative framework of research called culturally
responsive methodologies, which challenge traditional
research paradigms that devalue and dehumanize research
participants. They explain what culturally responsive
methodology is and how and why it differs from other
forms, its benefits to participants and researchers, and
how to unlearn traditional forms.

An Introduction to Buddhism: teachings, history and

University Press, 2013.
xxviii, 521p. 23cm.
ISBN : 9781107669703.
294.3 HAR 138466
This book is a comprehensive introduction to Buddhist
tradition as it has developed in three major cultural
areas in Asia, and to Buddhism as it is now developing in
the West. It not only explores the world views of the
religion but also attempts to show how Buddhism functions
as a set of practices. It thus includes chapters on
devotion, ethics, monastic practices and meditation. Such
practices are related to Buddhist teachings and
historical developments. Emphasizing as it does the
diversity found within different Buddhist traditions, the
book aims throughout to underline common threads of
belief, practice and historical continuities which unify
the Buddhist world.

Strong religion, zealous media : christian fundamentalism

xvii, 207p. 24cm.
ISBN : 9788178298344.
306.6751083 THO 138448
Strong Religion, Zealous Media: Christian Fundamentalism
and Communication in India is cultural and social
analysis of the growth of conservative forms of
Christianity within the Protestant tradition in India and
the many ways in which these new churches use the media.
Arguing that Christian broadcasting needs to be seen as
an essential aspect of a `muscular` Christianity that has
increasingly colonised globalising cities such as
Chennai, the book concludes with a strong validation of
multi-religious India and the need for a robust inter-
faith media response to combat religious fundamentalism.

ISBN : 9780415635646.

Locating Right to the City in the Global South marks an
innovative and far reaching effort to document and make
sense of urban transformations across a range of cities,
as well as the conflicts and struggles for social justice
these are generating. The volume contains empirically
rich, theoretically informed case studies focused on the
social, spatial, and political dimensions of urban
inequality in the Global South. In mapping the
relationships between space, politics and populations,
the volume draws attention to variations shaped by local
circumstances, while simultaneously elaborating a
distinctive transnational Southern urbanism. It provides
in-depth research on a range of practical and policy
oriented issues, from housing and slum redevelopment to
building democratic cities that include participation by
lower income and other marginal groups.

The essays gathered together in this book explore the
roles of the men and women who served the British Empire
in Australasia and India, and those who were subject to
their administration. As these essays demonstrate,
administrative arrangements involve complex cross-
cultural relationships in colonial spaces, often through
radically unequal and racially based power relations.

Free Market Revolution argues that we must embrace a new

Rand. The authors apply Rand-s ideas to today-s political

ISBN : 9780230302716.
330.157 HAR 138473
Alfred Marshall and Modern Economics demonstrates that it
is possible to take Marshall-s theoretical insights in
two distinctly different directions: one is to reject
evolution and go down the equilibrium path, while the
second is to reject equilibrium and go down the
evolutionary path. The author re-examines Marshall-s
legacy and relevance to modern economic analysis with the
more settled conventional wisdom concerning evolutionary
processes allowing advances in economic theorising which
were not possible in Marshall-s life time.

xii, 326p. 23cm.
ISBN : 9789814436212.
333.79015195 SER 138456
This book presents the basic stylized facts on energy
price movements using correlation analysis, causality
tests, integration theory, cointegration theory, as well
as recently developed procedures for testing for shared
and codependent cycles, and, uses recent advances in the
financial econometrics literature to model time-varying
returns and volatility in energy prices and to test for
causal relationships between energy prices and their
volatilities. It also explores the functioning of
electricity markets and applies conventional models of
time series analysis to investigate a number of issues
regarding wholesale power prices in the western North
American markets, and applies tools from statistics and
dynamical systems theory to test for nonlinear dynamics
and deterministic chaos in a number of North American
hydrocarbon markets.

This book excesses within Western economies generated a
seismic crisis that dramatically accelerated a slow
decline. The economic partnership between China and Latin
America epitomizes well the growing integration between
emerging economies. Even if mostly benefiting from it,
Latin America is under the double sign of threat and
opportunity due to this complex relation. For Latin
America to succeed, it will need to reinvent itself.

338.13 WOJ 135292
Agroecology is the science of applying ecological
concepts and principles to the design, development, and
management of sustainable agricultural systems.
Agroecological economics, a subsection of agricultural
economics, evaluates the ecological consequences of
agricultural methods on the economic scale.
Agroecological economics considers green engineering as a
means of measurement. As the environmental movement
unfolds, the importance of biodiversity and long-term
sustainability are indisputable. Progress depends on
determining the economic viability of terrestrial
agroecosystems. What is lacking is the analysis needed to
bring biodiverse and sustainable systems to fruition.
Agroecological Economics analyzes the current topics that
must be addressed in order to provide sustainable
agricultural systems.

have contributed to an environment of insecurity,
manifested as multiple interacting threats that now
represent a serious challenge to humanity. Yet humans
also have the capacity to collectively transform the

One moment June Nealon was happily looking forward to
years full of laughter and adventure with her family, and
the next, she was staring into a future that was as empty
as her heart. Now her life is a waiting game. Waiting for
time to heal her wounds, waiting for justice.For Shay
Bourne, life holds no more surprises. The world has given
him nothing, and he has nothing to offer the world. In a
heartbeat, though, something happens that changes
everything for him. Now, he has one last chance for
salvation, and it lies with June-s eleven-year-old
daughter, Claire. But between Shay and Claire stretches
an ocean of bitter regrets, past crimes, and the rage of
a mother who has lost her child. Would you give up your
vengeance against someone you hate if it meant saving
someone you love? Would you want your dreams to come true
if it meant granting your enemy-s dying wish?
