This is a genuine innovation, because it is the ONLY text available which demonstrates how social science theory/research can be APPLIED to successful collaborative work with community groups. "Sustainable Communities on an Aging Planet is a course I am designing for Fall, 1996. This text is exactly what I need for the course. I was very impressed with the case material." --Stan Ingman, University of North Texas "I will be teaching a new course next semester entitled 'Community Building.' I would love to have a text that emphasizes case studies, while providing some information on needs assessment and evaluation research. It looks like [this book] would be exactly what I need." --Roland Liebert, University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana Twenty-seven instructive cases, originally written for this volume, are framed by two introductory chapters and a concluding chapter, which draw out the principles and perspectives underlying the case materials. Each case also concludes with extensive editorial commentary.

John Dewey and the Philosopher's Task

Teachers' College Press
2002

In this text, readers are taken on a journey into the mind of John Dewey. By analyzing Dewey's attempts to revise the introduction to one of his most important books, ""Experience and Nature"", Philip W. Jackson explores Dewey's efforts (both intellectually and emotionally) to explain the relationship between philosophy and human affairs. This story of Dewey's life-long struggle with a complex philosophical question (one that continues to challenge philosophers) is also the story of Jackson's own struggle to understand Dewey's quest. Written for anyone interested in philosophy or the writings of Dewey, this book should be useful for understanding the philosophic method and the philosopher's task of inquiry.
Television existed for a long time before it became commonplace in American homes. Even as cars, jazz, film, and radio heralded the modern age, television haunted the modern imagination. During the 1920s and 1930s, U.S. television was a topic of conversation and speculation. Was it technically feasible? Could it be commercially viable? What would it look like? How might it serve the public interest? And what was its place in the modern future? These questions were not just asked by the American public, but also posed by the people intimately involved in television’s creation. Their answers may have been self-serving, but they were also statements of aspiration. Idealistic imaginations of the medium and its impact on social relations became a de facto plan for moving beyond film and radio into a new era. In Television in the Age of Radio, Philip W. Sewell offers a unique account of how television came to be—not just from technical innovations or institutional struggles, but from cultural concerns that were central to the rise of industrial modernity. This book provides sustained investigations of the values of early television amateurs and enthusiasts, the fervors and worries about competing technologies, and the ambitions for programming that together helped mold the medium. Sewell presents a major revision of the history of television, telling us about the nature of new media and how hopes for the future pull together diverse perspectives that shape technologies, industries, and audiences.

A Healer and A Builder traces the life and times of Dr. John R. Augustine from his early years in Kitchener, Ontario, through his medical education at the University of Western Ontario in the late 1940s and early 1950s, to his years in Thunder Bay, Ontario. A Healer and A Builder provides an intimate personal portrait of John Augustine, his family background and the philosophical foundation that motivated a lifetime of extraordinary contributions to his profession and his community. This is the story of John Augustine's development of a dynamic new clinical education program which attracted medical students and doctors to Thunder Bay and environs and provided the foundation for the creation of the Northern Ontario School of Medicine (now NOSM University). It is also the story of how John and his wife Annette worked tirelessly to bring to life local arts and cultural institutions such as the Thunder Bay Museum, the National Exhibition Centre and the Centre for Indian Art. In this meticulously researched story of a life well lived, Philip Augustine, drawing on family diaries, archival research and memories of his father, gives a fascinating inside account of courtship and family life as well as medical education and health care in the last half of the twentieth century. A Healer and A Builder is an inspiring account of a notable figure in modern Canadian medical history and a charming and generous person.
