Application of Metaphors for Integrating New Meanings of Cultural Art Features into Modern Products
Metaphor is a valuable tool for facilitating innovative product design. Metaphor facilitates designers' comprehension of design concepts by illustrating comparisons with their existing knowledge.

Transatlantic Conversations
The second wave of feminism which challenged and changed many assumptions about the world in which we live was a product of various western cultures, with no single country possessing a monopoly on the writing of the texts that became the canonical statements of the 'new' feminism. Though many of the contributions to feminist scholarship that went on to become internationally significant hailed from Europe and the United States, these works were …

Respacing Africa
Respacing Africa originated in the Third European Conference on African Studies, held in Leipzig in June 2009 under the eponymous theme and, according to the editors, ‘meant as an invitation to take stock of the impact of the spatial turn on African studies’ (p. 1). The introductory chapter takes us through a brief history of some conceptualizations of space and outlines contemporary debates. Following this, the book falls into two parts, to my r…

This paper reviews recent museum visitor studies, which suggest that while visitors are interested in learning about and less likely to reject evolution than the general public, …

Microcirculation of the Aortic Wall in Experimental Atheromatosis
Since the end of the eighteenth century, the pursuit of 'true love' has been enshrined in the expectations of Western societies. We regard this pursuit as our right, and organize our lives around it. However, the possibility that love is becoming more difficult to achieve in the West has begun to attract considerable attention. The consensus is that love is both deeply desirable and extremely difficult to find. This highly original book explores …
The One-Teacher School
The one‐teacher school
The Gittins Report-the Welsh Plowden-investigated all aspects of primary education in Wales. It too advised that the small schools should be closed. Again it was believed that they could not cope with the full primary curriculum. Moreover, the small schools were becoming difficult to staff. Many of the Heads were near retirement and young teachers were reluctant to work in one- or two-teacher schools. Gittins also suggested that the social develo…
