Adoption in India: Evolving Policies, Parenting Experiences and Adoptee Narratives
by Vinita BhargavaThis book highlights the complexities and multi-dimensionalities of child adoption in India by challenging the prevalent adoption theories. It is the only book to lend a voice to adopted children and adults. It foregrounds the narratives of many families in their experiences of adoption together with the author's personal account as an adoptive parent.The volume outlines parenting practices that lead to success and well-being achieved through adoption. The first unit deals with the 'macro' delineation of child adoption, while the second discusses the 'micro' concerns of parents and children in the Indian context. It also analyses the socio-political and socio-cultural contexts within which adoptions take place. It includes excerpts from the guidelines for in-country adoption, the Juvenile Justice Act and the Hague Convention on inter-country adoptions.This book would be useful to the students, researchers, and faculty of Social Work, Human Development, Education, Psychology, Sociology and Law. It will also be an indispensable companion to adoptive parents (domestic and inter-country), adoptees (domestic and abroad), psychologists, therapists, psychiatrists, and policy makers.
Adorno's Gamble: Harnessing German Ideology (Signale: Modern German Letters, Cultures, and Thought)
by Mikko ImmanenAdorno's Gamble offers a startling reinterpretation of the evolution of Theodor W. Adorno's thought, usually seen as a mix of critical Marxism, Freudian psychoanalysis, aesthetic modernism, and Jewish tradition. Mikko Immanen argues for another, previously unacknowledged source of Adorno's thinking on instrumental reason, dialectic of enlightenment, and frailty of democracy: the intellectual underpinnings of Germany's "conservative revolutionary" movement of the 1920s.In a dramatic reappraisal of the leading light of the Frankfurt School, Immanen follows Adorno's path of philosophical development from the late Weimar era through years in exile to the postwar period, establishing his debt to thinkers of radical conservative bent. In particular, he focuses on Adorno's enduring, and daring, effort to harness two of the most infamous works from this tradition—Oswald Spengler's Decline of the West and Ludwig Klages's The Spirit as Adversary of the Soul—and to repurpose their reactionary teachings for emancipatory ends.

Adult Interpersonal Violence: Illuminating the Dark Side of Occupations
by Christine Helfrich Rebecca TwinleyThis unique volume uses an occupational perspective to shine a light on how the impact of interpersonal violence (IPV) affects people in their daily tasks and activities.The book recognises how the legacy of trauma – whether it be from one or more events that were physically, verbally, emotionally, sexually, or psychologically harmful or threatening – can be seen in the occupational experiences of both victim/survivors and perpetrators. It fills a distinct gap in the literature and highlights a pervasive issue – one which occupational therapists must regularly contend with. Edited by a leading scholar from both the United States and United Kingdom and including chapters on IPV within intimate relationships, stalking, and sexual assault, the book takes the field of occupational therapy into a new direction, setting the research agenda as well as, through invaluable clinical guidance, informing professional practice.This book will be essential reading for students, scholars and practitioners across the field of occupational science and occupational therapy.

Advanced City: For the Future of Cities and Opposing Smart Cities (Urban Sustainability)
by Ali Cheshmehzangi&“Evolution is by choice&”. This is not a passive truth, but a conscious commitment, one that lies at the heart of what I call the Advanced City. Coined and thoroughly introduced here in the book, this new concept is based on people-centric and data-informed processes to enhance our cities and communities for their future, and not for imagining future cities. This is not another model in the long line of urban prescriptions, nor a distant techno-utopia to be fantasized. It is a paradigm shift, an invitation to think, feel, and build differently. The &‘Advanced City&’ is a lived revolution, a dynamic process grounded in values, purpose, and practice. Too often, we romanticize the future city: glass towers, flying cars, machines and robots everywhere, data-driven dreams. But these visions distract us from the urgency of the present. They bypass the real work of transformation by projecting change onto an abstract tomorrow. The Advanced City asks something deeper: What kind of cities are we actively creating, today, here, and now? It is not about waiting for innovation to arrive. It is about choosing a different path, rooted in responsibility, equity, and long-view thinking. This book is not about cities as machines, markets, or spectacles. It is about cities as ecosystems of meaning, struggle, creativity, and care. The Advanced City is a movement of re-engagement, for academics, for planners, for civic leaders, and for all who call the city home. It calls on us to be co-creators of our urban futures, not passive consumers of predesigned and predetermined solutions. We need radical honesty about the failures of current systems, and the intellectual courage to reimagine what&’s possible. The advanced city resists the illusion of &“smartness&” and returns us to human truths: interdependence, justice, and purpose. It is about making change, not waiting for it. So, this is not a new product for urban branding, it is rather a process for transformation, a paradigm shift, and an &“urban revolution&”. A call to co-create cities that are not merely advanced in function, but advanced in wisdom. Here, I also call for the development of &‘Brother Cities&’ and &‘Advanced Development Goals (ADGs)&’. If not now, when? If not us, who? Let the Advanced City be an urban revolution of now and the future to be lived; not later, but now – not for the future cities, but for the future of our cities and communities.
