Education policies should drive success and equity but in many countries they are failing to do so. Situating the cases of England and Australia within broader global policy trends, this book critically analyses what has gone wrong. The authors draw on extensive research in education to review the impact of multiple policies on students, teachers and schools, with a focus on communities where children and young people need education most. They issue a fundamental challenge to the policy orthodoxies of recent decades and set out a blueprint for making education both better and fairer.

This is the latest volume in a series which has provided coverage of the seminal advances in machine intelligence over the past two decades. It marks a turning point in the series' direction, one that will focus on the vital problem of scientific reasoning and the application of artificial intelligence to analyzing the sometimes staggering quantities of data generated in fields from biotechnology to planetary physics. The book includes contributions from internationally recognized experts who offer their insights on important practical and theoretical developments. It also includes an extensive bibliography that will serve as a valuable guide to the literature.

Mirroring the expansion of wealth in the Middle East and Asia and a surge in Islamic self-identity, Islamic banking practices have either become the law of the land or coexist and compete with Western practices in at least six countries. A growing number of institutions and mutual funds (akin to Western ''socially responsible'' funds) have established Islamic investment and other practices to cater to this burgeoning market. Because of its prevalence, practitioners in every banking-related area must familiarize themselves with current Islamic finance practices in order to do business with Muslim clients and to engage in cross-border financing.
