Michael Greenhalgh, Marble Past, Monumental Present. Building with Antiquities in the Mediaeval Mediterranean
No full textC’est à une passionnante histoire de la réception de l’architecture antique dans le monde méditerranéen médiéval – ici, le millénaire suivant le règne de Constantin – que nous invite Michael Greenhalgh, particulièrement parce que celle-ci est abordée par un biais aussi riche qu’original : le remploi. Qu’est-ce qui poussait les constructeurs, dans le monde chrétien comme dans le monde musulman, à intégrer dans leurs ouvrages des pièces de marbre extraites de bâtiments antiques, qu’ils soient e..
Primary Health Care: Theory and Practice
No full textGeneral practitioners and other primary care professionals have a leading role in contemporary health care, which Trisha Greenhalgh explores in this highly praised new text. She provides perceptive and engaging insights into primary health care, focussing on: • its intellectual roots • its impact on the individual, the family and the community • the role of the multidisciplinary team • contemporary topics such as homelessness, ethnic health and electronic records. Concise summaries, highlighted boxes, extensive referencing and a dedicated section on effective learning make this essential reading for postgraduate students, tutors and researchers in primary care. From the foreword by Julian Tudor Hart "Trish Greenhalgh, in her frequent columns in the British Medical Journal...more than any other medical journalist spoke to her fellow GPs in the language of experience, but never without linking this to our expanding knowledge from the whole of human science. When I compare the outlines of primary care so lucidly presented in this wonderful book, obviously derived from rich experience of real teaching and learning, with the grand guignol theatre of London medical schools when I was a student 1947-52, the advance is stunning." "Trish Greenhalgh is one of the international stars of general practice and a very clever thinker. This new book is a wonderful resource for primary health care and general practice. Every general practice registrar should read this book and so should every general practice teacher and primary care researcher." Professor Michael Kidd, Head of the Department of General Practice, University of Sydney and Immediate Past President of The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners "This important new book by one of primary care's most accomplished authors sets out clearly the academic basis for further developments in primary health care. Health systems will only function effectively if they recognise the importance of high quality primary care so I strongly recommend this book to students, teachers, researchers, practitioners and policy makers."

Shooting From the Heart: Cinematographers and Their Medium
No full text“Shooting from the Heart – Cinematographers and Their Medium” constitutes the academic core of 'Making Pictures',a significant work of reference in the field under the auspices of IMAGO (the Association of European Cinematographers). Other contributors include director Bernardo Bertolucci, actor Marcello Mastroianni and cinematographers Sven Nykvist, Jack Cardiff and Guiseppe Rotunno.
The chapter by the researcher positions cinematography as a distinct medium and this argument is substantiated through the analysis of both historical and contemporary exemplars of achievement in lighting, composition and camera movement. It uses as primary source material several interviews conducted by Greenhalgh which, in their turn, enable a comparative perspective on cinematographic practice to emerge. The chapter seeks to establish clear boundaries around the professional role while simultaneously exploring the complex dimensions of collaborative partnerships with directors. The chapter provides a comprehensive foundation for constructing academic inquiry into cinematography and production practice in media theory
Michael Greenhalgh, Constantinople to Córdoba. Dismantling Ancient Architecture in the East, North Africa and Islamic Spain
No full textM. Greenhalgh has again written an interesting book about the reception and final fate of the ancient architecture during the Middle Ages. It puts an end to a series of valuable and useful books (The Survival of Roman Antiquities, 1989 ; Islam and Marble, 2005 ; Marble Past, Monumental Present, 2009) in which he had explored the role of antiquities and ancient marble in the Mediterranean, comparing and contrasting how ancient buildings and its material (marble in particular) were dismantled, ..
Collaboration and interconnectivity: Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Services and higher education institutions in Nottingham
No full textThis paper will describe the developing relationship between Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Services and the two Higher Education Institutions in Nottingham. It will chronicle how a very traditional relationship has been transformed, initially by a simple consultancy project, into a much closer working relationship characterised by a much richer variety of collaborative projects. It demonstrates the potential mutual benefits that greater trust and reciprocity between the institutions can bring to both academia and to practice and the impact it has already had on curriculum development, teaching and learning in Nottingham
