Content: This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This book investigates what international placements of healthcare employees in low resource settings add to the UK workforce and the efficacy of the its national health system. The authors present empirical data collected from a volunteer deployment project in Uganda focused on reducing maternal and new-born mortality and discuss the learning and experiential outcomes for UK health care professionals acting as long term volunteers in low resource settings. They also develop a model for structured placement that offers optimal learning and experiential outcomes and minimizes risk, while shedding new light on the role that international placements play as part of continuing professional development both in the UK and in other sending countries.

Note: 1. International mobility and learning in the UK National Health Service -- 2. Internationalisation and placement activity in the UK National Health Service -- 3. What do health workers learn on international placements? -- 4. Managing costs and risks -- 5. Conclusions: Towards a model for sustainable professional volunteering.

Series Statement: Nineteenth-Century African American Narratives and Speeches in Britain and Ireland

Content: Brings together pioneering literary works by African American authors who made a revolutionary impact on UK and Irish nineteenth-century transatlantic literary cultures and political historiesIncludes an in-depth introductory essay, author biographies, annotations, and detailed bibliographies in order to provide specialist and general audiences with the literary, political, historical, philosophical, and cultural contexts that were fundamental to nineteenth century Black transatlantic literary productionThe nineteen texts constitute radical declarations of Black artistic and political independence by bearing witness to each author’s determination to resist white racist attempts to script, edit and censor Black acts and arts of imaginative literary productionThis is the first scholarly anthology of nineteen narratives written by African American authors and published in Britain and Ireland in the nineteenth century.These literary works share the powerful life stories of inspirationally pioneering writers: Charles Freeman, Phebe Ann Jacobs, Benjamin Crompton Chisley/William Jones, John Hart, John Williams, Henry (surname unknown), James Watkins, William Gustavus Allen, John Comber, Sarah Parker Remond, James Cheeney Thompson, Dinah Hope Browne, John Sella Martin, Lewis Smith, James Alfred Johnson, D. E. Tobias and Benjamin William Brown. Their narratives are reproduced alongside an in-depth introductory essay, author biographies, scholarly annotations and a detailed bibliography.All these authors testify to their lifelong ‘fight for freedom’ across their radical and revolutionary works. Throughout their lives, they warred against the ‘sufferings and horrors’ of enslavement as a centuries-old ‘cursed institution.’ ‘Words are weapons’ in their fight for Black liberation. Across their life’s works, they protested against the rise of the ‘spirit of slavery’ in white supremacist and white racist American and British transatlantic societies.

Series Statement: Refiguring American Music : 25

Content: In Songbooks, critic and scholar Eric Weisbard offers a critical guide to books on American popular music from William Billings's 1770 New-England Psalm-Singer to Jay-Z's 2010 memoir Decoded. Drawing on his background editing the Village Voice music section, coediting the Journal of Popular Music Studies, and organizing the Pop Conference, Weisbard connects American music writing from memoirs, biographies, and song compilations to blues novels, magazine essays, and academic studies. The authors of these works are as diverse as the music itself: women, people of color, queer writers, self-educated scholars, poets, musicians, and elites discarding their social norms. Whether analyzing books on Louis Armstrong, the Beatles, and Madonna; the novels of Theodore Dreiser, Gayl Jones, and Jennifer Egan; or varying takes on blackface minstrelsy, Weisbard charts an alternative history of American music as told through its writing. As Weisbard demonstrates, the most enduring work pursues questions that linger across time period and genre-cultural studies in the form of notes on the fly, on sounds that never cease to change meaning.
