"How did eighteenth-century travellers experience, describe and represent the urban environments they encountered as they made the Grand Tour? This fascinating book focuses on the changing responses of the British to the cities of Florence, Rome, Naples and Venice, during a period of unprecedented urbanisation at home. Drawing on a wide range of unpublished material, including travel accounts written by women, Rosemary Sweet explores how travel literature helped to create and perpetuate the image of a city; what the different meanings and imaginative associations attached to these cities were; and how the contrasting descriptions of each of these cities reflected the travellers' own attitudes to urbanism. More broadly, the book explores the construction and performance of personal, gender and national identities, and the shift in cultural values away from neo-classicism towards medievalism and the gothic, which is central to our understanding of eighteenth-century culture and the transition to modernity"--

Vrouwelijke therapeuten geven achtergrond bij en getuigen over het werken met mannelijke patiënten. In elk van de bijdragen lichten zij hun beweegredenen om dit werk te doen toe. Sectie 1 begint met een hoofdstuk over de specifieke uitdagingen voor vrouwelijke therapeuten. Daarna volgt een hoofdstuk waarin de opstart van een therapiereeks met mannen beschreven wordt (ook het einde ervan). Het overbrengen van gevoelens tussen cliënt en therapeut is de hoofdmoot van hoofdstuk 3, gevolgd door een hoofdstuk over ethische principes. Sectie 2 bevat hoofdstukken over relatietharapie, over de ervaringen van een jonge therapeute en over 'coaching' (d.i. een minder beladen term dan therapie). Sectie 3 behandelt het therapeutische werk met mannen uit etnische mindderheden, therapie voor depressie, het omgaan met agressie, trauma's, vaders en oudere mannen. De laatste sectie is een weergave van een groepsgesprek tussen de verschillende auteurs, waarin zij hun ervaringen bespreken.

Since the time of the Enlightenment in Western Europe, discussions of faith and reason have often pitted the believer against the skeptic, the theist against the atheist, and the person of one faith against the person of no professed faith. But the relation of reason to faith has been a matter of debate among believers as well. There are those who hold that religious faith can be proven or supported by rational argument. Others say that to try to give reasons and arguments does violence to religious faith, or opens it to misunderstanding and doubt, or trivializes it. Responses to the Enlightenment: An Exchange on Foundations, Faith, and Community is a dialogue between Hendrik Hart and William Sweet, two philosophers who identify themselves as Christians, and who seek to respond to the challenges of the Enlightenment and its legacy. The authors approach the relation of faith to reason, however, in very different ways: Hart from the perspective of the Calvinian tradition and postmodern philosophy, Sweet from the Catholic tradition and analytic philosophy. Among the topics discussed are the nature of religious faith and of reason, liberalism and orthodoxy in religion, the relation of religious experience and rationality, and building community in a religiously and culturally pluralistic world. This exchange presents two distinctive perspectives to some of the major challenges of the reason to religious belief, but seeks to find common ground between them.

Team-Based Learning (TBL) is a unique, powerful, and proven form of small-group learning that is being increasingly adopted in higher education. Teachers who use TBL report high levels of engagement, critical thinking, and retention among their students. TBL has been used successfully in both small and large classes, in computer- supported and online classes; and because it is group work that works, it has been implemented in nearly every discipline and in several countries around the world.This book introduces the elements of TBL and how to apply them in the social sciences and humanities.
