David P. Rice

    David Price duikt in de verborgen geschiedenissen en het collectieve geheugenverlies rond de behandeling van Aboriginals en Aziatische migranten door de eerste kolonisten in zijn geboortestreek West-Australië. Als pedagoog brengt hij een uniek perspectief om de spanningen tussen persoonlijke herinnering en historische verslaglegging te onderzoeken. Zijn werk onderzoekt hoe vroegere onrechtvaardigheden hedendaagse gemeenschappen blijven vormgeven en de aanhoudende impact van opzettelijk vergeten. Price's schrijven is een bedachtzame verkenning van identiteit, verbondenheid en het voortdurende proces van het onder ogen zien van moeilijke waarheden.

    Craniofacial sutures
    • Sutures are more than just fibrous joints between the bones in our skull. They are active growth sites that influence the development, growth and shaping of our face and cranium. When suture development is disrupted, craniosynostosis can result, a condition which is characterized by the premature closure of one or more cranial sutures before brain growth is complete and leads to an abnormally shaped skull. In this publication, leading experts in the field, both researchers and clinicians, discuss suture morphogenesis from developmental, evolutionary and genetic perspectives. In addition, an appraisal of the molecular etiology, clinical presentation and treatment of craniosynostosis is presented, as well as an outlook to future areas of study and to innovative therapeutic philosophies. In this volume craniofacial developmental and evolutionary biologists, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, orthodontists as well as pediatric and plastic surgeons will find a wealth of recent information on the field of craniofacial development, deformity and its treatment.

      "From every perspective "OPEN" will open your mind to some of the real implications of digital technologies for how we live and learn in the 21st century." Sir Ken Robinson, world-leading expert on education and creativity ""OPEN" is atour de forcethat is by turns inspiring, shocking, highly entertaining, but above all practical." Mark Stevenson, author of "'An Optimist's Tour of the Future'" What makes a global corporation give away its prized intellectual property? Why are Ivy League universities allowing anyone to take their courses for free? What drives a farmer in rural Africa to share his secrets with his competitors?

They are sharing everything they know, and turning knowledge into action in ways that were unimaginable even a decade ago. Driven by technology, and shaped by common values, going 'open' has transformed the way we live. It's not so much a question of if our workplaces, schools and colleges go open, but when. Packed with illustration and advice, this entertaining read by learning futurist, David Price, argues that 'open' is not only affecting how we are choosing to live, but that it's going to be the difference between success and failure in the future.

    • From searches for serial killers and missing persons to the persecution of migrants and Aboriginal people, David Price takes us back to a time when the line between lawmakers and criminals was lightly drawn. Based on a wide array of contemporaneous accounts of life in the Gascoyne, these sometimes shocking, sometimes disturbing true crime stories depict an era when laws served to maintain order rather than to secure justice. Dark Tales from the Long River offers a window into an evolving history of colonisation that is still struggling into the light.
