Lean Construction 4.0 Driving a Digital Revolution of Production Management in the AEC Industry This book introduces and develops the novel concept of Lean Construction 4. 0. The capability of Lean Construction to effectively adapt the architecture-engineering-construction (AEC) industry to this new era of digital transformation requires a reconceptualization of the triad people-processes-technology as a foundation for the theoretical and practical framework of Lean Construction. Therefore a shift towards Lean Construction 4. 0 is required. Lean Construction 4. 0 is a new systems-wide thinking approach where synergies and overlaps between Lean Construction and digital/smart technologies go far beyond BIM to reshape the way we design manage and operate capital projects in the modern age of automation. This pioneering new book brings together the views of world experts at the interface of Lean Construction and digital/smart technologies in order to channel research efforts to introduce and discuss current research and practice challenges and drivers and future perspectives of Lean Construction 4. 0. It is not the aim of the book to keep adding digits to the term ‘Lean Construction’ to ‘catch up’ with the industry revolutions as they go on. Instead after reading this book it will be undeniable for readers that the triad process-people-technology as proposed by Lean Construction 4. 0 is required to achieve an effective long-lasting digital transformation of the AEC industry. Thus the aim of Lean Construction 4. 0 is better explained by what it evokes: a future vision of construction systems comprising people processes and technology using Industry 4. 0/5. 0 as a basis for technological innovation in the AEC industry coupled with Lean Construction theory and practice as a jettison for improved processes and systems integration. The Lean Construction 4. 0 concept coined and developed in this edited book is unique and the chapters provide practitioners and academics with a provocative reflection on the theoretical and practical aspects that shape the Lean Construction 4. 0 concept. More importantly Lean Construction 4. 0 proposes a rationale for the AEC industry not only to survive but to thrive! | Lean Construction 4. 0 Driving a Digital Revolution of Production Management in the AEC Industry GBP 150.00 1

Cultural Management A Research Overview This shortform book tells the research story of cultural management helping scholars to analyse and combine theoretical models into an approach of their own. Cultural management emerged and developed out of the field of arts management in the 1980s which imported managerial techniques and assumptions from mainstream commercial business into the arts. In the late 1990s the field integrated entrepreneurial approaches to management in the creative industries before adapting to a new model based on user experiences and co-creation. These historical phases are theorised respectively as cultural management 1. 0 cultural management 2. 0 and cultural management 3. 0. Yet they also overlap. Bringing together theories of management and creativity this book enables scholars to get a grip on the underlying assumptions and conditions which lie behind an eclectic and evolving field. The author an established expert in this field empowers scholars and reflective practitioners to develop their own approach to cultural management drawing on the available approaches and to recognise that successful cultural management is contingent on understanding the context (organisational and personal) within which these models will be applied. | Cultural Management A Research Overview GBP 44.99 1

Materializing Memory in Art and Popular Culture Memory matters. It matters because memory brings the past into the present and opens it up to the future. But it also matters literally because memory is mediated materially. Materiality is the stuff of memory. Meaningful objects that we love (or hate) function not only as aide-mémoire but are integral to memory. Drawing on previous scholarship on the interrelation of memory and materiality this book applies recent theories of new materialism to explore the material dimension of memory in art and popular culture. The book’s underlying premise is twofold: on the one hand memory is performed mediated and stored through the material world that surrounds us; on the other hand inanimate objects and things also have agency on their own which affects practices of memory as well as forgetting.

Housing Careers Intergenerational Support and Family Relations In this comprehensive volume authors from across the social sciences explore how housing wealth transfers have impacted the integration of families society and the economy with a focus on the (re)negotiation of the ‘generational contract’. While housing has always been central to the realization and reproduction of families more recently the mutual embedding of home and family has become more obvious as realignments in housing markets employment and welfare states have worked together to undermine housing access for new households enhancing intergenerational interdependencies. More families have thus become involved in smoothening the routes of younger adult members into and up the ‘housing ladder’. While intergenerational support appears to have become much more widespread it remains highly differentiated across countries cities and regions as well as uneven between social and income classes. This book addresses the increasing role that family support and intergenerational transfers in particular are playing in sustaining the formation of new households and the transition of young adults towards social and economic autonomy. The authors draw on diverse international cases and a variety of methodologies in order to advance our understanding of housing as a key driver of contemporary social relations and inequalities.

This book will explore the seemingly simple practice of reading picture books with infants and toddlers aged 0–3 years from a range of perspectives. Not only do book-focused adult–child interactions support language and early literacy development in multiple ways such interactions can also at the same time foster intellectual social emotional and spiritual growth. By weaving together in an accessible manner the insights from several different discipline areas this book will explain how and why reading with infants and toddlers has such power to enrich their lives.

Law and Time Research on law's relationship with time has flourished over the past decade. This edited collection aims to put law and time scholarship into wider context advancing conversations on time and temporalities between socio-legal scholars anthropologists sociologists geographers and historians. Through a diverse range of contributions the collection explores how legal modalities of time emerge and have effects within wider clusters of social and political action. Themes include: law’s diverse roles in maintaining linear historicist models of time; law’s participation in the materialisation of times; and the unsteady effects of temporal pluralism and polytemporalities in law. De-naturalising the ‘time’ in law and time scholarship this collection positions time as something that can be enacted and materialised as well as experienced with distinct implications for questions of social justice.
