The aim of this book is to highlight and begin to give 'voice' to some of the notable 'silences' evident in recent years in the study of contentious politics. The seven co-authors take up seven specific topics in the volume: the relationship between emotions and contention; temporality in the study of contention; the spatial dimensions of contention; leadership in contention; the role of threat in contention; religion and contention; and contention in the context of demographic and life-course processes. The seven spent three years involved in an ongoing project designed to take stock, and attempt a partial synthesis, of various literatures that have grown up around the study of non-routine or contentious politics. As such, it is likely to be viewed as a groundbreaking volume that not only undermines conventional disciplinary understanding of contentious politics, but also lays out a number of provocative new research agendas.

Taking into account both the urban soundscape and the impacts of sound on the urban dweller, this book examines sound not as a by-product of urban life, but as a fundamental part of the urban experience that is crucial to understanding the city’s sense of place. Illustrated by case studies from Europe and North America, these range from on-site measurements to the construction of audio tours for local tourism, from media analysis of popular culture audio drama to sound-identity and city branding, and from the classification of noise in city planning to a consideration of the complex relationship between sacred sound and the creation of a sense of place.

Is there any difference between Mozart and rock music for a plant? After all, we know that plants cannot hear. They can perceive and choose frequencies that we cannot detect without their hearing organs, and they prefer Mozart or chants to rock music. They can lengthen and shorten their bodies, reduce their density by drilling holes, and even change their genes with music. It knows the owner who gives it water, gets stressed, falls in love, and favors its brother. They are in our subconscious. They read our thoughts and manage the animal kingdom as they please. Plants have amazing abilities. In the world of plants, there are wars and relationships that we do not realize and witness. The Aborigines, who are the protectors of the land and this planet, are preparing for the last day of the world or the first beginning by passing on their secrets, wisdom and culture from generation to generation. Think again before you touch, cut or pluck them. You didn't create them and you don't have the right to experiment on them. Only you can help them survive.

The Rt. Rev. Frank E. Wilson (1855-1944), late Bishop of Eau Claire, was perhaps the most prolific Episcopal writer of his era, authoring dozens of books geared to lay people.

More than 50 years after its original publication, this timely book that explores core Christian beliefs, continues to inspire and instruct Anglicans throughout the world.
