Mathematics is used as an "extreme case," since it is a discipline so easily accepted as separable from politics, ethics or the social construction of knowledge. Appelbaum's juxtaposition of popular culture, public debate and professional practice enables an examination of the production and mediation of "common sense" distinctions between school mathematics and the world outside of schools. Terrain ordinarily displaced or excluded by traditional education literature becomes the pendulum for a new conversation which merges research and practice while discarding pre-conceived categories of understanding The book also serves as an entertaining introduction to emerging theories in cultural studies, progressively illustrating the uses of discourse analysis for comprehending ideology, the implications of power/knowledge links, professional practice as a technology of power, and curriculum as at once commodities and cultural resources. In this way, Appelbaum effectively reveals a direction for teachers, students and researchers to cooperatively form a community attentive to the politics of curriculum and popular culture. Peter M. Appelbaum is Assistant Professor of Curriculum and Instruction at the William Paterson College of New Jersey. 410 0$aSUNY series, education and culture. 606 $aMathematics$xStudy and teaching 606 $aMathematics$xPsychological aspects 606 $aPopular culture 615 0$aMathematics$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aMathematics$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aPopular culture. 676 $a510/.7 700 $aAppelbaum$b Peter Michael$01867325 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966348103321 996 $aPopular culture, educational discourse, and mathematics$94474816 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03536oam 2200745I 450 001 9910961524103321 005 20251117093024.0 010 $a1-283-94225-9 010 $a0-203-09471-9 010 $a1-136-20894-1 024 7 $a10.4324/9780203094716 035 $a(CKB)2670000000315508 035 $a(EBL)1108564 035 $a(OCoLC)823719054 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000803932 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11438470 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000803932 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10813874 035 $a(PQKB)10690355 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1108564 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1108564 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10643568 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL425475 035 $a(OCoLC)823896919 035 $a(FINmELB)ELB135222 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000315508 100 $a20180706d2013 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aEnvironmental apocalypse in science and art $edesigning nightmares /$fSergio Fava 205 $a1st ed. 210 1$aNew York :$cRoutledge,$d2013. 215 $a1 online resource (245 p.) 225 1 $aRoutledge studies in social and political thought ;$v79 225 0$aRoutledge studies in social and political thought ;$v79 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a1-138-92068-1 311 08$a0-415-63401-6 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aCover; Environmental Apocalypse in Science and Art: Designing Nightmares; Copyright; Contents; Figures and Tables; Boxes; Abbreviations; Preface; Introduction; 1 Deadly Weather: Narratives of Nature and Agency During the Little Ice Age; 2 Counting the Days: John Napier's Exegesis and Mathematics; 3 Drawing the End: Inigo Jones' Banqueting House; 4 Assembling the Worldmachine: Mathematical Modelling of Climate Change; 5 Imagining Futures: The Special Report on Emission Scenarios; 6 Creating One Future: The Doomsday Vault; 7 Reclaiming Futures: Olafur Eliasson's Weather Project; Notes 327 $aBibliographyIndex 330 $aAt a time when it is clear that climate change adaptation and mitigation are failing, this book examines how our assumptions about (valid and usable) knowledge are preventing effective climate action. Through a cross-disciplinary, empirically-based analysis of climate science and policy, the book situates the failures of climate policy in the cultural history of prediction and its interfaces with policy. Fava calls into question the current interfaces between scientific research and climate policy by tracing multiple connections between modelling, epistemology, politics, food security, reli 410 0$aRoutledge Studies in Social and Political Thought 606 $aClimatic changes$xHistory 606 $aClimatic changes$xForecasting 606 $aEnvironmental disasters$xHistory 606 $aEnvironmental disasters$xForecasting 606 $aEnvironmental risk assessment 615 0$aClimatic changes$xHistory. 615 0$aClimatic changes$xForecasting. 615 0$aEnvironmental disasters$xHistory. 615 0$aEnvironmental disasters$xForecasting. 615 0$aEnvironmental risk assessment. 676 $a363.34/92 700 $aFava$b Sergio.$01883238 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961524103321 996 $aEnvironmental apocalypse in science and art$94499243 997 $aUNINA
