Dick AUS Author Heather Brook Conjugality explores the legal shape of marriage as it has been determined by countless decisions concerning entry and exit into the ancient rite.

QTY QTY AUS Authors Helen Forbes-Mewett, Jude McCulloch, Chris Nyland International students and crime is of major international concern, impacting on lucrative international student markets, international relations, host countries' reputations as tolerant and safe, and on the security of students and the public. While crimes against and by international students have attracted a deal of media attention and discussion internationally, there is little research that systematically describes, analyses and reflects on the phenomena. International Students and Crime analyses a spectrum of crime from petty theft to kidnapping and murder, presenting vital knowledge about international students as victims and perpetrators of crime in the US, the UK and Australia. It highlights the largely hidden phenomena of crimes against female international students and strategies students use to stay safe. Examining the different approaches to student safety in host countries, the book considers the ways in which governments, higher education providers and police approach and implement their responsibilities for international student safety. $129.95 Hb, ISBN 9781137034960, NZRRP$169.95, April 2015, 304 pages, Palgrave Macmillan ^Indent QTY 3 New Indent Titles The Palgrave Handbook of Critical Thinking in Higher Education The Palgrave Handbook of Philosophical Methods AUS Author Edited by Martin Davies, Ronald Barnett Palgrave Handbook of Critical Thinking in Higher Education explores critical thinking in higher education in all its forms, from definitions to teaching and incorporating it into the curriculum, its relationship to culture and the professions, and its social perspectives and scientific and cognitive manifestations.
