Newbold K. Bruce: Population Geography

Population Geography

Tools and Issues

A physician's candid guide to self-discovery and organizational effectiveness in the pursuit of health equity.In Healing in a Changing America, Dr. George Rust offers advice on improving health equity especially targeted to the people who need to hear it most: white men, many of whom are in leadership positions throughout health care systems and medical education. He shares lessons learned pursuing health equity in diverse settings on his personal journey as a white male physician, from training in a large urban public hospital and practicing in a rural farmworker clinic to teaching and leading in a historically Black medical school. This candid guide confronts uncomfortable truths and nuances of privilege, systemic inequities, and the role that leaders must play in creating inclusive, equitable health systems. How can we ensure diversity and build trust and strength within a health care organization? How do we know when our voice will be helpful--and when it will drown out others'? Through deeply personal and memorable stories, Rust addresses these questions and more. Drawing from decades of experience as an educator, physician, and advocate, he charts a roadmap for individuals willing to confront their own biases and embrace the challenges of fostering diversity and equity in health care. From building trust and empowering underrepresented voices to promoting structural changes in medical education and practice, Rust shares the mistakes and successes of his own experience to equip readers with practical tools to effect meaningful change. Healing in a Changing America offers profound insight into the transformative power of humility, listening, and learning. Whether navigating the complexities of organizational leadership or grappling with societal shifts, this essential work inspires readers to become true allies in the pursuit of justice and equity.

Healing in a Changing America

For decades, gentrification research has predominantly focused on large cities. Arguing that gentrification has occurred throughout the urban hierarchy, Ravuri fills this gap in the literature by analyzing gentrification and displacement patterns in twelve medium-sized cities, spread across the four census regions of the US.

Displacing the "Ordinary" City

"Shehadeh''s books are like beacons held up against the darkness" Observer"A heartbreaking, hopeful look at how Palestinian culture endures" Irish Times Forgotten is a search for hidden or neglected memorials and places in historic Palestine - now Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories - and what they might tell us about the land and the people who live on our small slip of earth between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River.From ancient city ruins to the Nabi ''Ukkasha mosque and tomb, acclaimed writers and researchers Raja Shehadeh and Penny Johnson ask: what has been memorialised, and what lies unseen, abandoned or erased - and why? Whether standing on a high cliff overlooking Lebanon or at the lowest land-based elevation on earth at the Dead Sea, they explore lost connections in a fragmented land.In elegiac, elegant prose, Shehadeh and Johnson grapple not only with questions of Israeli resistance to acknowledging the Nakba - the 1948 catastrophe for Palestinians - but also with the complicated history of Palestinian commemoration today.

Development: The Basics is an absorbing introduction to those policies, practices and players in human development and addresses key questions including: Is development simply about alleviating poverty? Do development ideas work best at the global or local level? How can we achieve the goal of sustainable development? Do the outcomes always match the intentions?Featuring examples drawn from around the world, a glossary, timelines and suggestions for further reading this book is the ideal starting point for those new to the study of development.

Development: The Basics

Sozial- und Kulturgeographie

Gesellschaften stehen heute vor komplexen ökologischen, technologischen, wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Herausforderungen. Dies macht nicht nur einen institutionellen Wandel erforderlich, sondern verweist auch auf die Notwendigkeit eines grundlegenden Wandels im Handeln der Akteure. Die Beiträger*innen gehen zwei zentralen Fragen nach: Welche Bedeutung haben kulturhistorische Repräsentationen von Raum und der Umgang mit ihnen für Gesellschaften, Institutionen, Politik und andere Akteure? Und was behindert den Prozess des zielgerichteten Handelns angesichts der bestehenden Herausforderungen?

The Spatiality and Temporality of Urban Violence

This book analyses laws distinctively normative contribution to place-making. In an original, cross-disciplinary, analysis drawing on scholarship in law, geography, philosophy and politics, Antonia Layard considers how law operates in the fixing of borders that both protect and exclude. Centred upon four legal case studies - on public space; housing regulation; rules on the manifestation of religion; and geographic indications in intellectual property law - the book pursues a critical geographical consideration of how place is integral to ideas about identity, belonging and territory.

Human Geography in the Twenty-First Century: Issues and Applications

A Spatial Perspective

Redistricting and Gerrymandering

A groundbreaking history that explores how human desires have affected our relationship with the natural world, and why this is a cause for hope &nbsp; Donald Worster looks back over 200,000 years of Homo sapiens sapiens to show how human nature, especially the drive for food and sex, has responded to environmental conditions throughout history. Examining how this process led from foraging to the agrarian revolution and then to a capitalist way of life, Worster brings us face to face with a third transformation of human society that is beginning to take shape in China: an ecological civilization. &nbsp; This meticulously researched book explores how human desires have driven us to overrun our environments, and how we have adapted by creating new relationships with the earth. Tying the past to the future and humans to the planet, Worster acknowledges that we are at a potentially dangerous tipping point. Yet he offers a surprisingly optimistic vision, full of faith in the strength of our human desires, to help us develop exciting futures in a changing world—as we have done time and again—and achieve a good life for the billions of us trying to survive on a finite planet.
