Body and Image: Explorations in Landscape Phenomenology 2 Christopher Tilley
 The understanding and interpretation of ancient architecture, landscapes, and art has always been viewed through an iconographic lens?a cognitive process based on traditional practices in art history. But ancient people did not ascribe their visions on canvas, rather on hills, stones, and fields. Thus, Chris Tilley argues, the iconographic approach falls short of understanding how ancient people interacted with their imagery. A kinaesthetic approach, one that uses the full body and all the senses, can better approximate the meaning that these artifacts had for their makers and today?s viewers. The body intersects the landscape in a myriad of ways?through the effort to reach the image, the angles that one can use to view, the multiple senses required for interaction. Tilley outlines the choreographic basis of understanding ancient landscapes and art phenomenologically, and demonstrates the power of his thesis through examples of rock art and megalithic architecture in Norway, Ireland,......

Titan: Exploring an Earthlike World Athena Coustenis, fredric W. Taylor
 Titan: Exploring an Earthlike World presents the most comprehensive description in book form of what is currently known about Titan, the largest satellite of the planet Saturn and arguably the most intriguing and mysterious world in the Solar System. Because of its resemblance to our own planet, Titan is often described as a frozen primitive Earth and is therefore of wide interest to scientists and educated laypersons from a wide range of backgrounds. The book aims to cater to all of these by using nontechnical language wherever possible, while maintaining a high standard of scientific rigor. The book is a fully revised and extensively updated edition of Titan: The Earthlike Moon, which was published in 1999, before the Cassini and Huygens missions arrived to orbit Saturn and land on Titan. As investigators on these missions, the authors use the latest results to present the most recent revelations and latest surprises about an exciting new world. Contents: The Voyager Missions......

Critical Thinking Skills: Measuring Higher Cognitive Development with Bloom'sTaxonomy Christopher Dobson
 Educators at all levels are concerned with thedevelopment of their students? critical thinkingskills. But how can we reliably measure any change inthis ability, and how long does it take? This booksummarizes the results of a two-year investigation ofcognitive development in college students. Studentperformance on exams at different levels of Bloom'sTaxonomy was used to estimate improvement inhigher-level thinking. The California CriticalThinking Skills Test (CCTST) was used as anindependent and discipline-neutral estimate of thisability. Data analysis confirmed the cumulativehierarchical relationship of Bloom?s, with studentsaveraging 73% on exam questions at the knowledgelevel and 53% at the application and analysis levels,although statistically significant improvement incritical thinking by students was not detected overtwo semesters. Clearly, critical thinking isdifficult for students and takes longer to developthan we might have guessed. The findings of thisstudy have implications......
