Jeg har flere ganger observert at småbarn i vogn lager lyd når de blir trillet over brostein. Tonen de synger, vibrerer når hjulene på vogna ruller over ruglet underlag. Vi er alle i kontinuerlige materielle prosesser og bevegelser, og vi er selv materiale. Kunnskap om og reflekterte erfaringer og holdninger knyttet til vår måte å forholde oss til materialer og materialitet på er vesentlig for å kunne skape og uttrykke oss gjennom materialer. I denne boka møter du ulike perspektiver knyttet til barns (og voksnes) opplevelser og erfaringer med materialers egenskaper og muligheter i kunstnerisk virksomhet. Materialene har fundamental betydning for skapende virksomhet, som arter seg på mangfoldig vis i billedkunst, arkitektur, design, tradisjonskunst, håndverk og barns kunstneriske prosesser. Materialene bærer i seg historier og videreformidler generasjoners levde liv og handlingsbårne kunnskap. Materialene gir inspirasjon og substans til tenkning, og følelser finner sitt formuttrykk i dem. Å uttrykke seg i materialer er språk, en form for estetisk samtale samhandling mellom de som skaper og materialene de skaper med, og de som opplever og erfarer det som er skapt. I materialenes verden er skrevet for studenter i barnehagelærerutdanninga, og for alle andre som arbeider med barn, kunst og skapende virksomhet i utdanning, barnehage og kunst- og kulturinstitusjoner. Ann-Hege Lorvik Waterhouse er høgskolelektor i forming, kunst og håndverk ved Institutt for barnehagelærerutdanning, fakultet for lærerutdanning og internasjonale studier ved Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus. Hun har i mange år arbeidet med forming, kunst og håndverk, med kunstformidling og barns opplevelser, eksperimenteringer og erfaringer med varierte materialer i kunstneriske sammenhenger i barnehagen. «Jeg anbefaler boken til alle som jobber med barn. (...) Denne boken vil gjøre en forskjell, både for hvilke møter barn gjør med materialer i barnehagen, og for hvordan vi åpner for barns skapende prosesser - og for hvordan vi forholder oss til materialer rundt oss..» Ragnhild Olsen i Pedagogisk Bokorm «Bokens innhold blir en ny legering for vår samtid. (...) Til tider er den så velskrevet, så poetisk at den kan ta pusten fra en.» Nina Scott Frisch i FORMakademisk

James Scott taught us what's wrong with seeing like a state. Now, in his most accessible and personal book to date, the acclaimed social scientist makes the case for seeing like an anarchist. Inspired by the core anarchist faith in the possibilities of voluntary cooperation without hierarchy, Two Cheers for Anarchism is an engaging, high-spirited, and often very funny defense of an anarchist way of seeing--one that provides a unique and powerful perspective on everything from everyday social and political interactions to mass protests and revolutions. Through a wide-ranging series of memorable anecdotes and examples, the book describes an anarchist sensibility that celebrates the local knowledge, common sense, and creativity of ordinary people. The result is a kind of handbook on constructive anarchism that challenges us to radically reconsider the value of hierarchy in public and private life, from schools and workplaces to retirement homes and government itself. Beginning with what Scott calls "the law of anarchist calisthenics," an argument for law-breaking inspired by an East German pedestrian crossing, each chapter opens with a story that captures an essential anarchist truth.In the course of telling these stories, Scott touches on a wide variety of subjects: public disorder and riots, desertion, poaching, vernacular knowledge, assembly-line production, globalization, the petty bourgeoisie, school testing, playgrounds, and the practice of historical explanation. Far from a dogmatic manifesto, Two Cheers for Anarchism celebrates the anarchist confidence in the inventiveness and judgment of people who are free to exercise their creative and moral capacities.

I flere tusen år har verdenshavene vært fulle av øyer som aldri har eksistert. Disse mytiske stedene er resultater av fri fantasi, menneskelige feil eller ren svindel. Alle har de sin egen historie. Noen har bidratt til å forme en hel kultur, mens andre knapt er viet oppmerksomhet. Felles for øyene er at de forteller oss noe om hvordan vi en gang oppfattet verden.. I denne boken tar Malachy Tallack oss med på en fascinerende jordomseiling til to dusin steder som ikke lenger har noen plass på kartet. Fra den velkjente legenden om Atlantis til mer obskure historier fra våre dager skildres et helt hav av øyer som en gang ble oppdaget, for så å bli u-oppdaget. Med illustrasjoner av Katie Scott, kjent for bøkene Animalium og Botanicum.

Using thirteen historical puzzles, from the outbreak of the war and the stability of attrition, to unrestricted submarine warfare and American entry into the war, this book provides students with a rigorous yet accessible training in game theory. Each chapter shows, through guided exercises, how game theoretical models can explain otherwise challenging strategic puzzles, shedding light on the role of individual leaders in world politics, cooperation between coalitions partners, the effectiveness of international law, the termination of conflict, and the challenges of making peace. Its analytical history of World War I also surveys cutting edge political science research on international relations and the causes of war. Written by a leading game theorist known for his expertise of the war, this textbook includes useful student features such as chapter key terms, contemporary maps, a timeline of events, a list of key characters and additional end-of-chapter game-theoretic exercises.

A beautiful new edition of F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel The Great Gatsby to coincide with the release of Baz Luhrmann's film. 'There was music from my neighbour's house through the summer nights. In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars.' Everybody who is anybody is seen at the glittering parties held in millionaire Jay Gatsby's mansion in West Egg, east of New York. The riotous throng congregates in his sumptuous garden, coolly debating Gatsby's origins and mysterious past. None of the frivolous socialites understands him and among various rumours is the conviction that 'he killed a man'. A detached onlooker, Gatsby is oblivious to the speculation he creates, but always seems to be watching and waiting, though no one knows what for. As writer Nick Carraway is drawn into this decadent orbit, Gatsby's destructive dreams and passions are revealed, leading to disturbing and tragic consequences.
