Determination
'A compassionate, beautifully told portrait' Guy Gunaratne 'Absorbing, witty, eloquent fiction, as well as a trenchant political critique' Tom Benn'A hymn to empathy, alive with care and love' Rebecca WatsonJamila Shah is twenty-nine and exhausted. An immigration solicitor tasked with running the precious family law firm, Jamila is prone to being woken in the middle of the night by frantic phone calls from clients on the cusp of deportation.Working under the shadow of the government's 'hostile environment', she constantly prays and hopes that their 'determinations' will result in her clients being allowed to stay. With no time for friends, family or even herself (never mind a needy partner), Jamila's life feels hectic and out of control.Then a breakdown of sorts forces her to seek change - to pursue her own happiness while navigating the endless expectations that the world seems to have of her, and still committing herself to a career devoted to helping others. In this assured and character-driven debut, we meet the staff of Shah & Co Solicitors, who themselves arrived in the UK not too long ago, and their clients, more recent arrivals - all trying to achieve some semblance of normality.

Self-Determination Theory : Basic Psychological Needs in Motivation, Development, and Wellness
Self-determination theory (SDT) provides a framework for understanding the factors that promote motivation and healthy psychological and behavioral functioning.In this authoritative work, the codevelopers of the theory comprehensively examine SDT's conceptual underpinnings (including its six mini-theories), empirical evidence base, and practical applications across the lifespan.The volume synthesizes a vast body of research on how supporting--or thwarting--people's basic needs for competence, relatedness, and autonomy affects their development and well-being.Chapters cover implications for practice and policy in education, health care, psychotherapy, sport, and the workplace.

Handbook of Self-Determination Research
Papers addressing the role which human motivation plays in a wide range of specialties including clinical psychology, internal medicine, sports psychology, social psychology, and educational psychology. Over the past twenty years an increasing number of researchers from various universities have been investigating motivational issues underlying the self-regulation of behavior.Using either Self-Determination Theory or closely related theoretical perspectives, these researchers have performed laboratory experiments, as well as field studies in a variety of real-world settings, including education, work, parenting, health care, sport, and protection of the environment. In April 1999 thirty of these researchers convened at the University of Rochester to present their work, share ideas, and discuss future research directions.The Handbook of Self-Determination Research is an outgrowth of that important and fascinating conference.It summarizes the research programs of these social, personality, clinical, developmental, and applied psychologists who have a shared belief in the importance of self-determination for understanding basic motivational processes and for solving pressing real-world problems. Eighteen chapters, including an overview of self-determination theory, present the current state of the research in this scientifically rigorous, yet highly relevant, approach to studying motivational problems in various life domains.Researchers from eighteen universities in the United States, Canada, and Germany present concise and up-to-date accounts of their research programs concerned with the self-determination of human behavior.In these chapters, scholars also consider the relevance of the research on self-determination to other areas of inquiry such as coping, self-esteem, and interest. Edward L. Deci and Richard Ryan are professors of psychology in the University of Rochester's Department of Clinical and Social Sciences in Psychology.

Identity, Self-Determination and Secession
Engaging with a range of interconnected and highly topical issues of identity, self-determination and secession, this book examines the import and implications of 'identity claims', and looks into 'identity politics' motivated by such claims, which is becoming ever more salient in democratic and culturally and ethnically heterogeneous states.It discusses nationalism as an important component of identity of individuals and groups, and a position that generates claims of self-determination and secession on the part of ethnic and cultural groups.It also examines patriotism, which until recently seemed to be on the wane, but has undergone a dramatic revival after the terrorist attacks in the US on 11 September 2001 and the start of a global 'war on terror'.The book offers a typology of facets of patriotism, an assessment of its moral standing, and a critique of the beliefs about the patria it characteristically involves.Also discussed are topics such as political liberalism vs. 'identity liberalism', the ways a liberal society should treat nonliberal communities within it, the role of heritage and remembrance in national identity, the status of national minorities as an issue of equality, arrangements concerning indigenous peoples and intrastate autonomy as an alternative to secession, and whether secession can be a legal act.The book includes contributions by prominent philosophers and political and legal theorists from Australia, Canada, Israel, and the United States.

Analytical Methods for Toxics Determination
The purpose of this volume is to show how in this area the technology, creativity and inventiveness are the basis of new and encouraging results not only in the environmental field but also in the monitoring of xenobiotics of organic and inorganic origin in complex matrices. The final objective will always be on determining the fundamental parameters of interest to set up an analytical procedure, such as precision and trueness (that together give accuracy), the limits of detection and quantification, selectivity, and especially sensitivity, or attempting to increase this. The succession of the articles reported in this volume intend to follow a path starting from the development of new systems for the pretreatment of the sample (to be applied at an environmental level) for the monitoring of pollutants but also evaluating whether a plant species can be considered as a bioindicator of exposure and bioaccumulation. The succession continues by considering articles where the development of new devices, materials, and procedures to be applied for the determination of complex matrix toxicants (both environmental and food and biological) is reported. In particular, Hamad Al-Shaalan and collaborators report the development of composite nanoparticles used in solid phase micromembrane tip extraction and capillary electrophoresis to determine phenol and p-aminophenol in wastewater. The two articles of Salinitro and collaborators, as well as Bora and coworkers, report on the use of natural species as bioindicators of exposure to xenobiotics present at the environmental level. In particular, Salinitro reports the ruderal species Senecio vulgaris L., Polygonum aviculare L., and Poa annua L. as possible candidates for biomonitoring Cu, Zn, Cd, Cr, Ni, and Pb in multiple environments. Bora and collaborators instead evaluate the environmental quality of polluted areas near the Baia Mare Mining and Smelting Complex for future improvements of the environment quality in polluted areas, such as the city of Baia Mare and its surroundings. We then proceed with Wang and collaborators who propose a LIBS (laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy) procedure for the quantitative determination of pollution compositions on insulators and examination of the spectral characteristics of a natural pollution sample. Recently, also, ELISA techniques have seen wide development and application in various fields (environmental, food, as well as biological). Precisely on this, Han and collaborators report on the development of a self-assembled direct competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (dcELISA) kit for the detection of deoxynivalenol (DON) in food and feed grains. Lin and colleagues on the development of a new procedure for rapid and effective extraction of solasodine (strong pharmacological characteristics) from Solanum nigrum L. by microwave-assisted aqueous two-phase extraction (MAATPE). Garcia Ferreira and collaborators instead develop a procedure for the simultaneous quantification of clotrimazole and itraconazole and the study of their stability in a new microemulsion for the treatment of sporotrichosis. Zhang and colleagues study, by differential pulse voltammetry, the electrochemical behavior of hydrochlorothiazide and pyridoxine on ethylenediamine-modified glassy carbon electrode. Tartaglia and collaborators report the characterization of a new stationary phase, molecularly imprinted polymer-based (MIP-based), that can be used in the solid phase extraction (SPE) from biological matrices in order to assess the level of exposure to this class of compounds widely used as preservatives in various fields, especially in cosmetics.
