The Handbook for School Safety and Security

The Handbook for School Safety and Security

Lawrence J. Fennelly; Marianna Perry

Butterworth-Heinemann Inc

nidottu
School security is one of the most pressing public concerns today. Yet in most schools, there is little security expertise or detailed knowledge about how to implement and manage a security program. The Handbook for School Safety and Security rectifies this problem by providing the salient information school administrators and security professionals need to address the most important security issues schools face. Made up of contributions from leading experts in school security, The Handbook for School Safety and Security provides a wealth of practical information for securing any K-12 school. It discusses key approaches and best practices for school crime prevention, including such topics as crisis management and mass notification. It also covers the physical measure needed for protecting a school, including detailed discussions of access control, lighting, alarms, and locks. While there is no single fix for the myriad of security challenges facing today’s school security professionals, the best practices found in The Handbook for School Safety and Security will help increase the safety and security of any school.

This important book focuses on the idea that institutions matter for development, asking what lessons we have learned from past reform efforts, and what role lawyers can play in this field. What Makes Poor Countries Poor? provides a critical overview of different conceptions and theories of development, situating institutional theories within the larger academic debate on development. The book also discusses why, whether and how institutions matter in different fields of development. In the domestic sphere, the authors answer these questions by analyzing institutional reforms in the public (rule of law, political regimes, bureaucracy) and the private sectors (contracts, property rights, and privatization). In the international sphere, they discuss the importance of institutions for trade, foreign direct investment, and foreign aid. This book will be essential reading for those interested in a concise introduction to the academic debates in this field, as well as for students, practitioners and policy makers in law and development.

The primary goal is to provide a foundation for readers to identify, comprehend, and apply management concepts and security principles in their own environments so that readers will be readily prepared to troubleshoot problems and overcome challenges.Building and leading a trusted team that can set and achieve clearly outlined objectives begins with leadership. Security Officers and Supervisors: 150 Things You Should Know outlines those principles and traits required for professionals to succeed when promoted (though, more often than not, thrust!) into a security supervisory role.

Speaking in Tongues

Speaking in Tongues

This is a book about languages, what languages can and what they cannot do.In this dialogue between a Nobel Laureate and a leading translator, provocative ideas emerge about the evolution of language and the challenge of translation.Language, historically speaking, has always been slippery. Two dictionaries provide two different maps of the universe: which one is true, or are both false? Speaking in Tongues - taking the form of a dialogue between Nobel-Laureate novelist J. M. Coetzee and eminent translator Mariana Dimópulos - explores questions that have constantly plagued writers and translators, now more than ever. Among them:How can a translator liberate meanings imprisoned in the language of a text?Why is the masculine form dominant in gendered languages while the feminine is treated as a deviation?How should we counter the spread of monolingualism?Should a translator censor racist or misogynistic language?Does mathematics tell the truth about everything?In the tradition of Walter Benjamin’s seminal essay 'The Task of the Translator', Speaking in Tongues emerges as an engaging and accessible work of philosophy, shining a light on some of the most important linguistic and philological issues of our time.
