Book excerpt: Basketball has always been his one love, until now . . . Zeke Armstrong never imagined he’d be back in Vermont, but here he is, living in Colebury and trying to rehab an injury that could mean an early retirement from pro basketball. Running into his former classmate, Mallory Barrett, shouldn’t be a distraction. It shouldn’t mean anything, so why is he accidentally on purpose showing up at the coffee shop where the beautiful writer spends her time? Mallory Barrett has met a guy. Well, she hasn’t met him yet, except for on the dating app she almost refused to download. “Coby” sparks her interest and gets her jokes--and gives the romance-novel heroes she loves so much a full-court run for their money. When their first date doesn’t work out, she decides to give him another shot . . . just as a man she despises reenters her life. While her interest in the mystery man on the app grows, she clashes constantly with Zeke in real life. She can’t forgive him for humiliating her in high school, yet she can’t deny she’s drawn to him now. She’s somehow gone from confirmed bachelorette to the tie-breaker between two men. Meanwhile Zeke has a secret--one that will cost him the game if Mallory finds out . . . *** Doubletalk is a stand-alone novel in the Busy Bean series of Sarina Bowen's World of True North!

Book excerpt: "While this glossary will be an indispensable dog-eared reference to terminology across the field of education for aspiring teachers and education leaders, and should be a required supplemental text for all introductory course, the value that Diane Ravitch, renowned spokesperson for public education and for the best possible education for all children, adds is that she addresses the real profit centered, and privatization drivers that lie behind so many organizations and models that have perverted the term "reform," and purport to care for students but in fact often harm or exploit them. a kind of whistleblower book on organizations, programs and practices that are not what they seem, often branded with positive promotional names, masking programs-for-profit, panacea programs with little real benefit to students, some, like "accountability," actually harmful to the most financially disadvantaged students through constant testing prep at the expense of learning. In Diane's words, "This book is not simply a glossary of easily defined terms that can be looked up on the Internet. It is a judgmental, evaluative appraisal of terms and organizations that would not be easily gleaned on the Internet. It guides readers through the thickets of jargon and hype that are often sales pitches to unwary consumers". It shines a light on the language related to groups and practices that are seriously endangering democratic public schools and the teaching profession"--

Book excerpt: Intended for current and future foreign language teaching professionals, volumes in the Theory and Practice in Second Language Classroom Instruction series examine issues in teaching and learning in language classrooms. The topics selected and the discussions of them draw in principled ways on theory and practice in a range of fields, including second language acquisition, foreign language education, educational policy, language policy, linguistics, and other areas of applied linguistics. Double Talk draws on six real-life stories of second language use and their implications for teaching today's language students by challenging the notion of a monolingual standard for our classrooms while pursuing a bilingual objective.

Book excerpt: This timely intervention exposes the euphemized language of the extreme right as a deceptive attempt to secure greater influence over public policy. Since the end of World War II, the extreme right has made strategic use of “doublespeak,” which apes the language of liberal democracy. Attentive observation and accurate recognition of these tactics means taking the extreme right’s deliberately crafted slogans, symbols, and themes seriously. These essays investigate the extreme right’s attempts at “repackaging” contemporary ultranationalism to make it more palatable to mainstream European and American tastes.

Book excerpt: A significant movement for Catalan independence has been building since 2010 and in 2015 is bringing Catalonia to a political showdown with the Spanish state. The Catalan language has long been cast as a key sign of identity and a rallying point for Catalan nationalism. This classic anthropological study, originally published in 1989 and now available for the first time in paperback, provides essential background for understanding Catalan national identity and its relationship to the distinctive Catalan language. Author Kathryn A. Woolard analyzes language and identity politics at a significant turning point in the modern history of Catalonia: 1979-80, when political autonomy was re-established after the end of the Franco dictatorship. This book examines the formal language politics of parties and policymaking as well as the interpersonal politics of individuals negotiating their social identities through choices between the Catalan and Spanish languages. This dual approach uncovers the relationship between the public and personal meanings of the languages that continue to resonate with Catalan national aspirations in the current political movement. Double Talk confronts enduring questions about bilingual life that arise not only in Spain, but also in settings worldwide.

Book excerpt: The name of Tariq Ramadan is well known in the West. Thanks to his urbane manner and articulate way of expressing himself - in a number of languages - this Swiss-born academic is a regular contributor to television and radio features dealing with Islam (and Islamism) and the West. In England, his reputation as a ''moderate'' has won him praise - and even an invitation from the Prime Minister to serve on the government's task force on preventing extremism. Meanwhile, as the grandson of Hassan al-Banna, founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Ramadan enjoys a certain status in Islamic circles - a kind of ambassador for his grandfather's brand of political Islam. So who is the real Tariq Ramadan and what does he stand for? In this incisive and insightful study of the man, well-known French writer and journalist Caroline Fourest dissects the public pronouncements of Tariq Ramadan. Drawing on his numerous books, articles and speeches as sources, she demonstrates with chilling clarity that the West has been beguiled by Ramadan's doublespeak. Tariq Ramadan is slippery. He says one thing to his faithful Islamist followers and something else entirely to his Western audience. His choice of words, the formulations he uses - even his tone of voice - vary, chameleon-like, according to his audience. In most people, this would be merely funny or irritating, but Tariq Ramadan is too influential a figure to be dismissed so lightly. Caroline Fourest does an incalculable service. In this long-overdue English translation of Brother Tariq she proves, once and for all, that Tariq Ramadan is not to be trusted. Ramadan has been portrayed as the Martin Luther King of Islam. This study reveals that he is a far more sinister character at the forefront of a militant and reactionary Islam.

Book excerpt: Double Talk Debuted In The Sunday Observer In Bombay, 1982. Suki, Its Central Character, Was A Bushy-Haired, Baggy-Clothed Free Spirit. With Neither Job Nor Family To Tie Her Down, Her Life Was Breezily Uncluttered, Unencumbered And Unconventional. In Four Years She Had Just One Romance And Her Best Friends Were Non-Human. Her Favourite Concerns Were Bewilderingly Abstract And Her Reference Points Were Usually Universal Rather Than Local. In The Nineties, Suki Was Resurrected In A Daily Strip Of That Name, In The Pioneer In New Delhi, Where It Ran For Six Years. Despite All The Changes That Have Occurred In The Real World Since The Birth Of Suki, The Character And The Illustrations Continue To Bristle With Their Own Quirky Brand Of Humour. Or Lack Of It: Bombay S Feisty Readers Had Strong Views About The Cartoon, And Sent In Almost 60 Published Letters Of Complaint To The Editor! This Book Represents A Selection Of The Strips That Appeared In Print From 1982 To 1986.
