Just a few decades ago, chemical oscillations were thought to be exotic reactions of only theoretical interest. Now known to govern an array of physical and biological processes, including the regulation of the heart, these oscillations are being studied by a diverse group across the sciences. This book is the first introduction to nonlinear chemical dynamics written specifically for chemists. It covers oscillating reactions, chaos, and chemical pattern formation, and includes numerous practical suggestions on reactor design, data analysis, and computer simulations. Assuming only an...

In this volume, contributors discuss both the theoretical and practical applicationsof an embodied knowledge perspective, using the field of education asan exemplar. It should be noted that while the theorists whose writings arediscussed in these pages, have made seminal contributions to the sociology ofthe body literature, it is not possible nor is it our goal to comprehensivelyreview the theoretical discourse of everyone who has written in the area. Ourmore modest aim is to give our audience a sampling of what some of theimportant theoretical positions entail. To that end, we turn to the...

The authors of this volume address multiple questions involving the nature of youth protest in the twenty-first century. Through their use of a case study approach, they comment upon the ways in which youth protest has been influenced by the electronic and social media and evaluate the effectiveness of protest activities, many of which were framed in reaction to neo-liberalism and state authoritarianism. A number of the authors further comment upon the utility of employing social movement theory to analyze the nature and character of protest actions, while others situate such events within...
