Teaching Trump: Critical Issues in History and Civics Education
by Fritz FischerThis book makes the case for teaching and engaging with the Trump presidency as US political history. Asking questions about how and when Trump’s presidency should be studied posits that history teachers must engage with this history now. The author points to the events that the January 6th Commission called a “stain on our history” and makes the argument that these events, if ignored, could stain the idea of history itself, shrouding it in a mythical haze and relegating history teachers to merely marginalized storytellers. As such, it offers ideas on engaging students with the facts and sources of the Trump presidency and placing Trump in the larger context of American political history. It specifically centers the notion of “historical thinking” as a guiding principle for the teaching of history and the study of the Trump presidency in particular. This book bridges the gap between the controversial events and rhetoric of Donald Trump’s first administration and the importance of contextualizing his presidency in the history classroom. It will appeal to educators, scholars, and researchers with interests in history education and teaching, those interested in civic education and social studies, as well as anyone interested in the future of teaching history and civics.

Temperature Development in Early Age Concrete Elements: Fundamentals, Prediction and Control (Modern Concrete Technology)
by Yunus BallimThe focus of this book is to provide guidance on the prediction of time-temperature profiles in large concrete elements during the early stages of construction, with a view to minimising the likely damage that may occur to the concrete as a result of elevated temperatures caused by the heat of hydration of the cementitious materials. Early-age elevated temperatures in concrete elements create the potential for cracking of the structure as well as compromising the strength and durability of the concrete.The book provides details on the characteristics of cementitious materials and their effects on the rate of heat evolution as well as the effects of elevated curing temperatures on the physical, mechanical and durability properties of concrete. The book also considers the effectiveness of materials selection and construction methodologies for early-age concrete temperature management and control. Several case studies are presented to illustrate the important aspects in the design and construction of temperature-sensitive concrete structures.This book is primarily aimed at practicing design and construction engineers who are concerned with thermal effects and stresses in large concrete elements. It is also aimed at researchers and postgraduate students who may consider aspects of this wonderfully complex matter of heat transfer and temperature prediction in large concrete structures, as sufficiently interesting to warrant further research and investigation.
