    Description: In this landmark Companion, expert contributors from around the world map out the field of the critical medical humanities. This is the first volume to introduce comprehensively the ways in which interdisciplinary thinking across the humanities and social sciences might contribute to, critique and develop medical understanding of the human individually and collectively. The thirty-six newly commissioned chapters range widely within and across disciplinary fields, always alert to the intersections between medicine, as broadly defined, and critical thinking. Each chapter offers suggestions for further reading on the issues raised, and each section concludes with an Afterword, written by a leading critic, outlining future possibilities for cutting-edge work in this area. Topics covered in this volume include: the affective body, biomedicine, blindness, breath, disability, early modern medical practice, fatness, the genome, language, madness, narrative, race, systems biology, performance, the postcolonial, public health, touch, twins, voice and wonder. Together the chapters generate a body of new knowledge and make a decisive intervention into how health, medicine and clinical care might address questions of individual, subjective and embodied experience.

    Description: The volume presents the Acts of the SIPED International Conference "Permanent Education From the Early Ages of Life", in which the concept of education is explored as a process that continues throughout all the life and is built in several training environments.
    Description: Il volume presenta gli Atti del Convegno internazionale SIPED 2015 "L'educazione permanente a partire dalle prime età della vita", nel quale si è esplorato il concetto di educazione come processo che continua durante l’intero corso della vita e si costruisce nei differenti ambienti di formazione. Migliore è la qualità dell’educazione a partire dalle prime scuole, maggiori saranno le possibilità personali di educazione nella vita intera. L'idea limite è quella di una formazione come condizione irrinunciabile per una partecipazione attiva dei cittadini alla vita sociale e politica.

    Description: Starting from the experiences of the "Velino for Children" project, which has worked in the Lazio territories hit by the earthquakes of 2016-2017, this book focuses on the models of psycho-socio-pedagogical intervention (at school, in the family, in institutions that support communities, etc.) that can work for the promotion of individual and community resilience. For this reason, the work is aimed at all those actors (administrators, managers, service coordinators, teachers, educators, social workers, psychologists) who, within the emergencies, are committed to favoring the processes of recovery and of social and educational reconstruction.

    Description: While portrayals of immigrants and their descendants in France and throughout Europe often center on burning cars and radical Islam, Citizen Outsider: Children of North African Immigrants in France paints a different picture. Through fieldwork and interviews in Paris and its banlieues, Jean Beaman examines middle-class and upwardly mobile children of maghrébin, or North African immigrants. By showing how these individuals are denied cultural citizenship because of their North African origin, she puts to rest the notion of a French exceptionalism regarding cultural difference, race, and ethnicity and further centers race and ethnicity as crucial for understanding marginalization in French society.

    Description: Motion pictures are made, not mass produced, requiring a remarkable collection of skills, self-discipline, and sociality—all of which are sources of enormous pride among Hollywood’s craft and creative workers. The interviews collected here showcase the pleasures that attract people to careers in film and television. They also reflect critically on changes in the workplace brought about by corporate conglomeration and globalization. Rather than offer publicity-friendly anecdotes by marquee celebrities, Voices of Labor presents off-screen observations about the everyday realities of Global Hollywood. Ranging across job categories—from showrunner to make-up artist to location manager—this collection features voices of labor from Los Angeles, Atlanta, Prague, and Vancouver. Together they show how abstract concepts like conglomeration, financialization, and globalization are crucial tools for understanding contemporary Hollywood and for reflecting more generally on changes and challenges in the screen media workplace and our culture at large.

    Description: "Wherever we turn, we see diverse things scaled for us, from cities to economies, from history to love. We know scale by many names and through many familiar antinomies: local and global, micro and macro events. Even the most critical among us often proceed with our analysis as if such scales were the ready-made platforms of social life, rather than asking how, why, and to what effect are scalar distinctions forged in the first place. How do scalar distinctions help actors and analysts alike make sense of and navigate their social worlds? What do these distinctions reveal and what do they conceal? How are scales construed and what effects do they have on the way those who abide by them think and act? This pathbreaking volume attends to the practical labor of scale-making and the communicative practices this labor requires. From an ethnographic perspective, the authors demonstrate that scale is practice and process before it becomes product, whether in the work of projecting the commons, claiming access to the big picture, or scaling the seriousness of a crime."

    Description: Being young in Italy in times of crisis means living with a mood that oscillates between depression and euphoria. Rather than thinking about the future, which is not known in any way, it is useful to look for some satisfaction in an eternal present time. The Italian young people's lives are suspended, invisible, lost, delayed, resized. They are those of an indefinite youth.

    Description: The volume contains a collection of contributions presented at the conference “INVALSI data: a tool for research”, held in Rome the 20th September 2016. On this occasion, scholars from different professional contexts (school, university, research) and selected through a call for papers presented their scientific works, using INVALSI data. The book is divided into two parts: the first part devoted to the use of INVALSI data in didactic research, the second focused on INVALSI data as a tool for supporting policy and decision makers. The eighteen chapters cover in-depth analyses that, starting from different angles and using several methodologies, offer the reader a rich and structured view of the different possible uses of the data that INVALSI gather each year.

    Description: "The project that inspires this volume is the production and analysis of certain and stabilized data on the university system, in an interpretative framework presented by teachers and researchers who have long been engaged in studies and research on reformism and innovation processes in universities. The collected essays offer a mapping of the University and its various aspects: from system governance to the training programs and funding, from postgraduate training to internationalization, from the evaluation of scientific research to ""Abilitazione Scientifica Nazionale"" and the Third Mission."
