Summary : "A Caliphal Daedalus examines connections between science and visual culture during the early Islamic scientific revolution of the caliphal age (650-1250 CE). It takes as its point of departure the figure of Abbas Ibn Firnas, (d. 887), the most famous scientist and polymath of early Islamic Spain. The book considers his scientific activities as these intersected with design and craft, culminating in the aeronautics experiment for which he is best known today, as these are recounted in the Muqtabis, the chronicle compiled by the Cordoban court historian Ibn Hayyan (d. 1076). It calls into question notions that medieval Islamic artisans and designers were anonymous individuals working outside elite social and intellectual circles. The key passages from the chronicle are presented in English translation, including the oldest and most authoritative source for the aeronautics experiment. The Arabic texts are examined in tandem with the earliest Islamic scientific instruments (especially astrolabes) and illustrated Arabic treatises of astronomy and engineering, preserved in museums and libraries around the globe. The book argues for a medieval Islamic court culture in which design and making were central to scientific intellectual pursuits and which may have shaped the culture of the Italian Renaissance"--

Summary : The Olympic Games is undoubtedly the greatest sporting event in the world, with over 200 countries competing for success. This important new study of the Olympics investigates why some countries are more successful than others. Which factors determine their failure or success? What is the relationship between these factors? And how can these factors be manipulated to influence a country’s performance in sport? This book addresses these questions and discusses the theoretical concepts that explain why national sporting success has become a policy priority around the globe. Danyel Reiche reassesses our understanding of success in sport and challenges the conventional explanations that population size and economic strength are the main determinants for a country’s Olympic achievements. He presents a theory of countries’ success and failure, based on detailed investigations of the relationships between a wide variety of factors that influence a country’s position in the Olympic medals table, including geography, ideology, policies such as focusing on medal promising sports, home advantage and the promotion of women. This book fills a long-standing gap in literature on the Olympics and will provide valuable insights for all students, scholars, policy makers and journalists interested in the Olympic Games and the wider relationship between sport, politics, and nationalism.

Summary : The perception of the immigrant as criminal or deviant has a long history in the United States, with many groups (e.g., Irish, Italians, Latinos) having been associated with perceived increases in crime and other social problems, although data suggest this is not necessarily the case. This Handbook examines the relationship between immigration and crime by presenting chapters reflecting key issues from both historical and current perspectives. The volume includes a range of topics related to immigration and crime, such as the links between immigration rates and crime rates, nativity and crime, and the social construction of the criminal immigrant, as well as historical and current immigration policy vis-à-vis perceptions of the criminal immigrant. Other topics covered in this volume include theoretical perspectives on immigration and assimilation, sanctuary cities, and immigration in the context of the "war on terror." The Routledge Handbook on Immigration and Crime fills the gap in the literature by offering a volume that includes original empirical work as well as review essays that deliver a complete overview of immigration and crime relying on both historical and contemporary perspectives. It is a key collection for students in immigration courses; scholars and researchers in diverse disciplines including criminal justice, criminology, sociology, demography, law, psychology, and urban studies; and policy makers dealing with immigration and border security concerns.
