Ideas as Causes
  • A Methodological Inquiry

  • Why do we do what we do? One commonsense answer is that actions follow ideas. We have ideas about who we are, what we believe, what we value, and how we ought to behave. These ideas-partly inherited and partly chosen, partly conscious and partly unconscious-structure our behavior. Much of what social scientists produce falls into the 'ideas' category. This includes well-worn subjects such as ideology, values, norms, roles, beliefs, religion, culture, political culture, as well as facets of identity captured by ethnicity, nation, race, gender, and sexuality. Yet within social science research, interests and institutions remain the preferred mode of explanation. In this ambitious and timely study of social behavior, John Gerring brings ideas into the fold of causal explanation. He offers an overview of the field, an in-depth discussion of the methodological obstacles facing ideational causes, and some potential solutions for researchers across social science fields.

  • How does brain activity give rise to sleep, dreams, learning, memory, and language? Do drugs like cocaine and heroin tap into the same neurochemical systems that evolved for life's natural rewards? What are the powerful new tools of molecular biology that are revolutionizing neuroscience? This second edition undergraduate text explores the relationship between brain, mind, and behavior. It clears away the extraneous detail that so often impedes learning, and describes critical concepts step by step, in straightforward language. Rich illustrations and thought-provoking review questions further illuminate the relationship between biological, behavioral, and mental phenomena. With focused, engaged writing, even the more challenging topics of neurotransmission and neuroplasticity become enjoyable to learn. This streamlined text includes all key information, allowing readers to remain focused and enjoy the feeling of mastery that comes from a grounded understanding of a topic, from its fundamentals to its implications.

Villainy in the Romantic Novel
  • Avarice, Luxury, and Imaginary Wants
  • Samuel Rowe

  • Providing a new literary history of capitalism and the novel in the long Romantic period, this thought-provoking study tells the story of how insatiable desire came to be central to our understanding of both fictional character and economic activity. In telling this story, Samuel Rowe draws attention to a largely neglected topic in novel studies: the villain. Reading fiction from Samuel Richardson's epistolary masterpieces and oriental tales to Minerva Press potboilers and radical social realism, he examines the broad narrative patterns that shape the use of villains as characters in the long romantic period. Through villainous characters, the period's fiction asks searching questions about the nature of work, consumption, and end-oriented human activity. Rowe makes a case for understanding want – as both lack and desire – as a central preoccupation during the cultural adaptation to liberal capitalism.

The Annals of Tacitus: Book 16
  • Edited by Salvador Bartera

    31 January 2027
  • This is the first scholarly commentary in English on Annals 16 in over a century. It offers a literary, historical and linguistic analysis of one of the most gripping books of the work, which includes, among other things, the narratives of Bassus' treasure trove, Poppaea's death, Petronius' suicide, and Thrasea Paetus' demise, at which point the text breaks off. The detailed commentary pays particular attention to Tacitus' narrative technique and idiosyncratic language, revealing his precise narrative strategy, which becomes evident when compared to the other sources of Nero's principate, such as Suetonius and Cassius Dio. The edition will be invaluable for scholars and postgraduate students who work on Tacitus, as well as those interested in early imperial historiography and history more broadly, especially of the Julio-Claudian period.

  • Are you struggling with abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhoea, or constipation? Are gut symptoms taking too much of your time and energy? Do they make you feel anxious or limit the life you want to live? We all poop and pass gas, and sometimes experience bloating or pain. But for 1 in 4 adults, these symptoms are frequent, intrusive, and exhausting. This book is for anyone whose gut problems have gone beyond occasional physical annoyance to disrupting work, relationships, and daily life. Through vivid patient stories and expert guidance, Drs. Helen Burton-Murray, Erik Hedman-Lagerlöf, and Brjánn Ljótsson explain functional bowel disorders, how the gut-brain feedback loop can often spiral rather than resolve, and how to interrupt—and ultimately untangle—this cycle through targeted behavioural changes. Grounded in the latest research, this book offers clear, step-by-step strategies to help calm an overreactive gut-brain system and return to the life you want.

  • The political rise of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement in the United States has sparked unprecedented interest in US food and farm policy, including subjects such as food chemicals, pesticides, and ultra-processed foods. Kennedy and his adherents in the MAHA movement are demanding sweeping reforms of food and farm policies, challenging powerful interest groups, and inviting new questions from food consumers. Remaking Food and Farm Policy in the United States examines how food and farm law and policy dramatically impacts food safety, food prices, nutrition, hunger, and the fate of the people who feed us. The book summarizes law and policy related to nutrition, hunger, food labels, food marketing, food chemicals, farm subsidies, farm pollution, farm animal welfare, and food and farm workers. It considers how the MAHA movement may reshape our food and looks forward, proposing needed policy reforms.

  • Drawing on an extensive source base spanning five hundred years, from the first half of the sixteenth century to the present, this is the first comprehensive, data-driven study of both historical and modern varieties of Nahuatl, a major Indigenous language spoken in North America. Employing multidisciplinary methods and a diachronic perspective, it identifies the key social, cultural, and linguistic factors that have interacted to motivate language change and the evolution of the social and cultural ecologies of the Indigenous communities in today's multilingual and multiethnic Mexico. It provides a critical enrichment of Western theories of contact-induced language change, continuity, acculturation, and resilience, paving the way for new relational methods of studying these complex phenomena across time and space. It is essential reading for researchers in contact linguistics, historical and synchronic sociolinguistics, Hispanic and Latin American studies, and linguistic typology. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

Deadpan and the Nineteenth-Century Emergence of a Comic Style

  • When the term 'deadpan' first appeared during the early twentieth century, it meant 'expressionless face. Sarah Balkin upends received wisdom in this original study of deadpan's emergence, which takes the vaudeville era as an endpoint rather than a beginning. Drawing on examples from Britain, the United States, and Australia, she investigates deadpan's earlier history in theater, comic opera, lecture culture, minstrelsy, cakewalking, burlesque, and vaudeville. In doing so, she reveals the terms performance makers, audiences, and critics used to describe deadpan before the style was named. She shows how deadpan mimicked and parodied socially central values and attitudes to make audiences laugh during a period better known for earnestness and self-control. She also explores how classed, racialized, and gendered comic conventions shifted across cultural contexts. This is the untold story of how deadpan became legible to audiences.

The Origins of Prose in Ancient Greece

  • Ancient Greek prose literature is commonly believed to have originated late in the Archaic period in the imposing shadow of Greek poetry, primitive and derivative in form and accordingly bereft of authority. Why, then, would Greeks in the sixth century BCE compose prose? If it were entirely lacking in style and status, how could it be used by Pherecydes and Anaximander to stake claims to wisdom and to knowledge of the history and structure of the cosmos? With a novel approach to prose a new view of Archaic literary culture emerges, one in which prose is more abundant, artful and authoritative than previously recognized. In addition to providing a secure foundation for the history of Greek prose literature, the book also traces for the first time the emergence of the concept of prose, which is considered quintessentially modern but is shown here to be deeply rooted in antiquity.

  • This extraordinary memoir by Concha Lombardo de Miramón is the only known autobiography written by a nineteenth-century Mexican woman. In it she recounts her life from her birth in Mexico City to the beginning of her long European exile following her husband's execution for supporting Maximilian, the ill-fated Austrian prince who established an empire in Mexico. Now available for the first time in English, translated and edited by Silvia Marina Arrom, it offers rich insight into Mexico's past from a female perspective. Concha provides not only eyewitness accounts of Mexico's bitter civil wars and leading political figures, but also lively anecdotes of daily life that both confirm and question stereotypes about women and gender. Readers will enjoy, and relate to, her accounts of family secrets, childhood mischief, possessive boyfriends, marital spats, practical jokes, daring escapades, and, finally, a love story that ends in tragedy.

    31 January 2027
  • In this unique exploration of the interplay of knowledge, memory, language, loss, and the layered unspeakability surrounding Palestine, Khawla Badwan develops an applied linguistics that sits with Gaza and the international failure to prevent the world's first livestreamed genocide. Still Gaza offers a deep understanding of how language operates in relation to human experience and how it can be stretched and shattered with pain and trauma. It presents a kind of applied linguistics and intercultural education scholarship that is critical, timely, disobedient, anticolonial and truly rooted in the lived experiences of genocide, erasure and struggle. The knowledge it produces is not only contemporary and current but also lived, felt, breathed, embodied and experienced. Genre-defying, Still Gaza refigures language as ethical action. It enables readers to understand the power of language as a witnessing project and as a tool for collective remembering and social healing.

  • Substitutions play a role in many problems, such as combinatorics on words, linear recurrent sequences, numeration systems, and complexity theory. This text offers a unified treatment of these problems and easy access to the results and methods of proof. It presents a comprehensive survey of sequences and shift spaces defined by substitutions. The book covers important results, such as the finiteness theorem for minimal morphic shifts, which characterizes a minimal morphic shift by the finiteness of its set of derivatives. Other highlights include the proof of the recognizability property under very general assumptions and the classification of complexity types for substitution shifts. The work culminates with the proof of the decidability of conjugacy for minimal morphic shifts. This is an essential resource for graduate students and academic researchers in dynamical systems.

The Origins of Children's Literature, 1658–1834

  • Drawing on a diverse range of materials from the long Eighteenth Century, this study provides a new account of the origins of children's literature. During this vibrant period, works as varied as encyclopaedias, nursery rhymes, catechisms, and moral tales emerged from the desire to convey profound concepts to audiences in the earliest stages of understanding, supplying multum in parvo, 'much in little'. Changing conceptions of children's bodies, lifespans, social scale, and mental capacity resulted in works that strove to be little in remarkably different ways. Whether facilitating readers' paths towards adulthood or an early grave, supplying them with couplets, abridgements, or tales in words of one syllable, children's literature has from its beginnings treated simplicity as the entryway to life's biggest questions. The belief that young people deserve access to complex ideas remains at the heart of children's publishing today, reflecting the significance of early children's literature to modern childhood.
