            • Overseeing Rights in Prison
              • Paperback
            • Sophie van der Valk / Routledge

          • Drawing on Ireland as its primary case study, this book is an in- depth critical examination of how rights protection bodies and mechanisms are experienced by those in prison in Ireland.

            Through its analysis of the Irish experience, the book considers the implementation of, and challenges faced by, human rights protection within the prison context, and explores some of the reforms that Ireland has undertaken in this area over the past 15 years, including the introduction of a new complaint system and establishment of an Office of the Inspector of Prisons. Using a wealth of information gathered through interviews and surveys of participants in three male prisons, the book sets out personal experiences of such mechanisms and identifies the key barriers to effective rights protection.

            Offering a detailed presentation of the international framework for the protection of prisoners’ rights through oversight mechanisms, and proposing methods for overcoming common barriers, Overseeing Rights in Prison: The Irish Experience of Human Rights Protection in Prisons will be of interest to students and scholars of criminology, particularly in relation to prisons and human rights.

          • Your favorite author may not be who they say they are.

            The stories behind why an author chose their literary alias can be just as compelling as the works that they wrote.

            Writers publish under pen names for a variety of reasons. Some use them to fit in while others employ them to stand out from the crowd. Pen Names traces the history of literary aliases from the nineteenth century to the present day through forty novelists, poets, and playwrights. These include famous pseudonymous writers such as George Eliot (Mary Anne Evans), Currer Bell (Charlotte Brontë), Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson), George Orwell (Eric Blair), crime writers such as Josephine Tey and Nicci French, and those lesser-known writers whose real identities have been obscured behind their literary aliases. Pen Names also explores the wide range of motivations for taking on new names, including gender, the use of pseudonyms for different genres, and writing as a team. Collectively, the stories in this book give the audience unusual insights into authors, publishers, and readers over the last two hundred years.

          • High Strength Steels: Microstructure, Properties, and Applications summarizes the historical context and recent research directions of new high strength steels including high-strength low alloyed steel (HSLA), dual-phase (DP) steel, transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) assisted steel, quenching and partitioning (Q&P) steel, medium-Mn steel, high-Mn twinning induced plasticity (TWIP) steel, bainitic steel, martensitic steel and maraging steel. In particular, the state-of-the-art understanding of the processing-microstructure-property relationship of these high-strength steels is the focus of this book. More importantly, the authors’ understanding on the deformation mechanisms of high-strength steels, which is based on their extensive research works over the last two decades, is thoroughly incorporated. Engineering applications of these materials are also discussed.

            High Strength Steels is suitable for new entrants or those working in related fields in academia and R&D in the subject areas of materials science and engineering and metallurgy.

            • Portraits in a Nutshell
              • Paperback
            • Donna S. Sanzone / Brandeis University Press

          • A gorgeously illustrated look at snuff boxes and bottles carved from the Brazilian coquilla nut reveals a larger history of commerce, cultural exchange, and power in the Atlantic world.
             
            Portraits in a Nutshell showcases intricately carved snuff boxes and bottles sculpted from the Brazilian coquilla nut between the seventeenth and mid-nineteenth centuries. Both utilitarian and decorative, these bottles and boxes were produced and used by diverse people of wide-ranging geographic origin, racial background, and social standing. As a result, coquilla nut snuff boxes present a rich material archive of the Atlantic world and the central role of Indigenous and Black histories within it.
             
            Despite being just three or four inches long, these coquilla nut snuff boxes encapsulate an early modern history of transoceanic movement and creativity. The carvings depict animals and fantastical creatures, scenes of religious and courtly life, portraits of political and military leaders, abolitionists and activists, and people at the margins of colonial society. These images are available to the public and to scholars for the first time in this book and will be of interest to antique collectors, art historians, social historians, and anyone interested in the unusual and the curious.
             
            Over 250 detailed photographs of snuff bottles and boxes from the unique and wide-ranging collection of David Badger not only illustrate the exceptional skill of their creators but also tell the story of millions of Africans transported to Brazil during centuries of the transatlantic slave trade. The text demonstrates the interconnectedness of the Atlantic world, the movements of peoples and ideas, and the commercial exchange of goods and cultural and material objects in Africa, Brazil, the Caribbean, and North America. In this beautiful book, these objects reveal a story never before told.
             
            With a preface by Matthew Francis Rarey, associate professor of African and Black Atlantic art history at Oberlin College, and an introduction by Gwendolyn DuBois Shaw, professor of art history at the University of Pennsylvania and director of the Arthur Ross Gallery.

            • Public Finance, Conflict, and International Interventions
              • Paperback
            • Tobias Akhtar Haque / Routledge

          • This book provides a critical analysis of the political and conflict impacts of “good governance” public finance reforms, showing how unintended distributional outcomes can undermine broader state‑building goals.

            The international community expends enormous resources trying to build “good governance” institutions in countries emerging from war. By ensuring efficiency, increasing transparency, and enhancing public accountability in the use of public resources, the adoption of “good governance” institutions is assumed to support stability, peace, and sustainable economic growth. Such assumptions, however, have a limited empirical basis and obscure a more complex reality. Drawing from political science and institutional economics, and evidence from major state‑building interventions in Afghanistan, Timor‑Leste, and Solomon Islands, this book explores the impacts of technocratic “good governance” reforms in fragile environments. Through the lens of public finance reform, it illustrates how efforts to achieve efficiency and accountability, while often bringing important benefits, can also undercut the patronage channels that draw together powerful elites, thereby increasing conflict pressures and eroding prospects for sustainable peace. This book makes the case for a reconsideration of the “good governance” agenda and the appropriateness of its application in developing countries experiencing or at risk of war.

            This book will be of interest to students of state‑building, global governance, political economy, development studies, and International Relations.

            • R. D. Laing in the Twenty-First Century
              • Paperback
            • Michael Guy Thompson, Fritjof Capra, Douglas Kirsner / Routledge

          • In this remarkable review of the seminal contribution of the Scottish psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, R. D. Laing, the three authors, each intimately acquainted with the subject matter, explore Laing’s intellectual and clinical legacy.

            Written from the perspective of a psychoanalyst, a scientist, and a philosopher, this unique book thoroughly addresses the three principal themes that defined Laing’s work: his views about sanity and madness, the use of therapy with those suffering from psychotic disturbance, and the vicissitudes of love relationships. They also explore authenticity, altered states, and healing. The authors bring a broad range of viewpoints in assessing Laing’s seminal contribution to contemporary thought, from both a scholarly and personal assessment rooted in each of their diverse relationships with him, both professional and personal.

            This volume will be of interest to those in the worlds of psychoanalysis, philosophy, science, and anyone with an interest in the work of R. D. Laing.
