Interdisciplinary Environmental Studies

Interdisciplinary Environmental Studies

Environmental issues are inherently interdisciplinary, and environmental academic programs increasingly use an interdisciplinary approach. This timely book presents a core framework for conducting high quality interdisciplinary research. It focuses on the opportunities rather than the challenges of interdisciplinary work and is written for those doing interdisciplinary work (rather than those studying it). It is designed to facilitate high quality interdisciplinary work and the author uses illustrative examples from student work and papers published in the environmental literature. This book's lucid, problem-solving approach is framed in an accessible easy-to-read style and will be indispensable for anyone embarking on a research project involving interdisciplinary collaboration. Readership: graduate students, advanced undergraduates, and researchers involved in the interface between human and natural environmental systems

Builds a revisionary theoretical framework for researching intelligence knowledge and applies it to the Swedish Military and Security DirectorateGunilla Eriksson revises our perception of intelligence as carefully collected data and objective truth, arguing that there are hidden aspects to intelligence analysis that need to be uncovered and critically examined. This twofold study investigates the character of intelligence knowledge and the social context in which it is produced, using the Swedish Military and Security Directorate (MUST) as a case study. Eriksson argues that there is an implicit framework that continuously influences knowledge production: what kind of data is considered relevant, how this data is interpreted and the specific social and linguistic context of the organisation, surrounded by unarticulated norms and specific procedures. She asks whether these conventions hamper or obstruct intelligence assessments; an essential analysis, given that history has shown us the grave consequences basing policy on intelligence's wrong conclusions.Sources include:The annual Swedish Armed Forces Strategic Intelligence Estimates from 19982010Lengthy and highly valuable interviews with the analysts, including managers, working at MUST, giving insights into everyday life at the institution and leading to many important resultsParticipant observation carried out by the author at MUST working meetings and seminars during the production process of the 2010 estimate, and drawing on her experience from her years working as an active analyst

From a magical childhood Christmas in Sweden to contemporary holidays in a complex time, Fireside Tales for Young and Old: Christmas in Dalecarliacelebrates the transcendent meaning of the season. Ideal for reading aloud at family gatherings or enjoying on a winter's afternoon, this charming collection is a rousing testament to the enduring capacity for hope that can come at Christmastime. The Dalecarlia stories chart six years of Christmas with a young boy named Bj rn. The stories feature a wondrous little gnome named Tomte, who relishes a bit of mischief as much as lends a helping hand. Evoking a time gone by, yet taking place in today's world, the stories reveal how family issues such as pride, prejudice, and misunderstandings can benefit from the Yuletide spirit. Both heartwarming and heartening, the stories weave in elements of surprise, sadness, joy, and mystery to offer a rich tapestry of the power and the potential of Christmas. Whether delighting a young boy or ministering to modern-day discord, Fireside Tales for Young and Old is perfect for anyone who needs a Christmas lift, in any season.

Just as Gunilla Norris' previous book, Being Home, garnered accolades from such spiritual writers as Bishop Desmond M. Tutu, Thich Nhat Hanh, Rabbi Harold Kushner, Brother David Steindl-Rast, Madeline L'Engle, M. Scott Peck, and a host of others, so too will readers find in this companion book the insights that they seek in living each day as a prayer. In these powerful poems, designed around the place, process, and seasons of making and eating bread, the transformative power of love, in all its many faces, resides. In such meditations as Beginning, Place, Willingness, Gifts, Living, Discipline, Pain, Sharing, Savoring, and then into Beginning Again, the author leads us through a process of alchemy: we become the bread and we become the love transformed. Helpful and hopeful, lyrical and resonant, Becoming Bread will be embraced by mature women and men of all faiths, including: · retreatants and spiritual seekers. · lovers of exquisite poetry. · those who have suffered loss and want to find a way to understand. · those who embrace the holy in the daily. · those who use daily prayer and stillness as renewal. †
