  A Choice Outstanding Academic Title of the Year 
   
   
   
  In Deliberative Policymaking, Elizabeth Grant advances a fresh framework for making collective decisions about US schools. Grant argues that education policy can be made better by improving education policymaking methods. Informed by accounts of policymaking actions as well as her own experience, she offers a keen assessment of which components of existing education policy and policymaking have been effective and which have not. 
   
   
   
  Grant presents new approaches to the craft of policymaking. She endorses policy design thinking, including user-centered design; greater attention to education statecraft, such as reinforcing federal-state relations; and partnering with intermediaries who can help policymakers determine where the public interest lies. She underscores how these practices support democratized policymaking and implementation, which can lead to more inclusive, equitable policy. 
   
   
   
  Grant notes that the success of policy work depends on civic capacity to initiate and sustain improvement efforts, and on policy's ability to meet the demands of the time. This book is essential for anyone who makes policy or is interested in education reform.

  Settling the Boom - The Sites...

  Examines how settler colonial and sexist infrastructures and narratives order a resource boom 
   
   
   
  Over the past decade, new oil plays have unsettled U.S. energy landscapes and imaginaries. Settling the Boom studies how the disruptive forces of an oil boom in the northern Great Plains are contained through the extension of settler temporalities, reassertions of heteropatriarchy, and the tethering of life to the volatility of oil and its cruel optimisms. 
   
   
   
  This collection reveals the results of sustained research in Williston, North Dakota, the epicenter of the "Bakken Boom." While the boom brought a rapid influx of capital and workers, the book questions simple timelines of before and after. Instead, Settling the Boom demonstrates how the unsettling forces of an oil play resolve through normative narratives and material and affective infrastructures that support settler colonialism's violent extension and its gendered orders of time and space. Considering a wide range of evidence, from urban and regional policy, interviews with city officials, media, photography, and film, these essays analyze the ongoing material, aesthetic, and narrative ways of life and land in the Bakken.

  Democritus - Atoms and the Birth...

  Democritus, often referred to as the "laughing philosopher," was a pre-Socratic Greek philosopher who is best known for his atomic theory of the universe. His ideas have significantly shaped modern science, especially in physics and chemistry. Democritus proposed that everything in the universe is made up of small, indivisible particles called atoms. These atoms are eternal, unchangeable, and infinite in number, differing only in shape, size, and arrangement. He was a strong proponent of materialism, the idea that everything that exists is composed of matter and that the properties of the world can be explained by the properties and interactions of atoms. 
  In addition to his contributions to atomic theory, Democritus also made significant contributions to epistemology, the study of knowledge. He suggested that our senses are the primary means by which we perceive the world, though they can sometimes be deceptive. His ideas influenced many later philosophers, including Leucippus, Epicurus, and even modern scientists like John Dalton, whose 19th-century atomic theory was inspired by Democritus's concepts. 
  Despite the lack of direct empirical evidence in his time, Democritus's theories laid the groundwork for the development of scientific thought and inquiry. He emphasized reason and observation over mythological explanations, helping to shape the way we understand the material world. Though much of his work has been lost to history, Democritus's legacy endures, continuing to inspire scientific exploration and contributing to our understanding of the universe.
