Learning history is remembered by many teachers as a passive process involving 'learning dates'. In this book, the emphasis is on 'doing history' - making sense of the past through the process of investigation as a true historian would. The authors argue that children should be involved in historical investigations, thus developing the skills and processes that underpin historical understanding. Using an Action Research approach to improving practice, the authors' own case-study of 'The Vikings' and teachers' accounts are used to illustrate different teaching approaches. These fully involve the children as historians in an imaginative and creative way. Each chapter is supported by exercises and activities which demonstrate how to translate theory into practice together with a specific focus on the problems of planning and resourcing to produce practical teaching strategies.

Reporting Islam argues for innovative approaches to media coverage of Muslims and their faith. The book examines the ethical dilemmas faced by Western journalists when reporting on this topic and offers a range of alternative journalistic techniques that will help news media practitioners move away from dominant news values and conventions when reporting on Islam. The book is based on an extensive review of international literature and interviews with news media editors, copy-editors, senior reporters, social media editors, in-house journalism trainers and journalism educators, conducted for the Reporting Islam Project. In addition, the use of an original model – the Transformative Journalism Model – provides further insight into the nature of news reports about Muslims and Islam. The findings collated here help to identify the best and worst reporting practices adopted by different news outlets, as well as the factors which have influenced them. Building on this, the authors outline a new strategy for more accurate, fair and informed reporting of stories relating to Muslims and Islam. By combining an overview of different journalistic approaches with real-world accounts from professionals and advice on best practice, journalists, journalism educators and students will find this book a useful guide to contemporary news coverage of Islam.

Reconstructing Science and Theology in Postmodernity
This title was first published in 2000: The author examines and critiques Pannenberg's elaboration of hermeneutics and evaluates his use of the sciences against the background of modernity. The study does not present Pannenberg's theory in itself, rather, it is confined to a critical assessment of his engagement with the sciences.

This book tells the story of the process leading up to the demolition of a small council estate in the north of England and its subsequent regeneration. Based on extensive ethnographic research, it addresses the local governance of security and the ways in which the community engaged with attempts to improve the 'quality of life' of its residents and to attract wealthier new residents in the future. It explores in particular the meaning of notions of 'social capital' and 'partnerships' which often take little account of local power dynamics, seeking rather to find ways of mobilizing popular support for enforcement and exclusion rather than drawing on local knowledge of problems. In following the process of consultation with residents this book explores the levels of miscommunication across social divides, and the differing narratives of change produced by residents and professionals. Residents' narratives display an important interplay between constitution of identity, community, sense of security, attribution of blame and ascription of responsibility for dealing with local problems explored in this book through detailed analysis of case studies. In the final section of the book the author puts forward an alternative vision for participatory urban governance, bringing together notions of justice, rights, inclusion and sustainability.

Honest adviser with a London investment bank and then the crash and I'm shown the door. The shock must have curdled my brain, because I now find myself in partnership with a neurotic control freak called Howard in a detective agency in Milton Keynes. Milton Keynes! I ask you! Wistfully gazing out the window with a cup of awful coffee, a sad ineffectual-looking little guy appeared at the door, begging my help. His garden was being eaten by his neighbour's goats and he had reached the end of his tether. Torn between irritation and sympathy, directed him to a nearby solicitor. Then all hell broke loose. That night his neighbours were viciously murdered and poor old Mr 'Sad', real name Tomlinson, had been charged with murder. And now Howard had agreed to my taking on work for a bent solicitor, working for a local crook. Both cases were going belly up and someone's out to kill me. What a way to start a new career!

I'm Mike Mc Donald, a private detective and own an agency in Milton Keynes with my pain-in-the-neck partner Howard. It was a quiet time workwise, so I'd arranged to meet my beautiful girl friend, Rosa, in the pub. I whizzed on over and found instead the horrible Harold Spate sitting there. Harold, an unwelcome memory from my past career, was a financier. What followed were the unwelcome consequences of his drifting into my life again. Harold's mate, Tony Moreland, wanted help in screwing his estranged wife financially. But, as he was murdered immediately after we met, I didn't strangle Howard for taking on the case. Take on any case for money, would Howard. Moreland's wife was arrested for murder by Inspector Eddie Foreman of the local police. Eddie, wrong as usual! Catastrophic disaster followed. Although I did stop another client bent on murder, I didn't come out of any of this scatheless myself. There you go!
