Why epistemic pluralism does not entail relativism (2018)
Book Chapter
D'Oro. (2018). Why epistemic pluralism does not entail relativism. In Collingwood on Philosophical Methodology

There is a widespread view according to which the denial that the conditions of knowledge are truth-evaluable inevitably leads to a form of epistemic pluralism that is both quietist and internally incoherent. It is quietist because it undermines the... Read More about Why epistemic pluralism does not entail relativism.

Between Modernism and Postmodernism: Structure and Expression in John Adams, Kaija Saariaho and Thomas Ades (2018)
Book Chapter
(2018). Between Modernism and Postmodernism: Structure and Expression in John Adams, Kaija Saariaho and Thomas Ades. In The Routledge Research Companion to Modernism in Music (327 - 352). https://doi.org/10.4324/9781315613291-15

This chapter conveys postmodernism both as a historical moment and as a force within modernism to expand its range of expression, examining four areas. The first one is postminimalism, particularly as represented by John Adams’s Harmonielehre, which...

Social Media and Cyberactivism (2018)
Book Chapter
Stiff, C. Social Media and Cyberactivism. In M. Keep, D. J. Kuss, C. Fullwood, & A. Attrill-Smith (Eds.), The Oxford Handbook of Cyberpsychology (369-393). Oxford University Press. https://doi.org/10.1093/oxfordhb/9780198812746.013.21

When created, social media was merely a somewhat frivolous method of disseminating media to others within an online network. Since then it has evolved to become a key facet of online life. This chapter examines how social media has fostered cyberacti... Read More about Social Media and Cyberactivism.

An overview of psychological literacy in practice from the UK (2018)
Book Chapter
(2018). An overview of psychological literacy in practice from the UK. In Teaching Psychology Around the World (362 - 379)

This chapter introduces an overview of a set of case studies that have been submitted to us over a four year period following requests in psychology conferences and publications, and through professional networks. The full versions of the case studie... Read More about An overview of psychological literacy in practice from the UK.

Astronomical Time Scale for the Mesozoic (2018)

The astronomical theory and its application to sediment cyclostratigraphy have been widely studied over the past thirty years. Especially during the past decade, these have been successfully applied for a continuous high-resolution calibration of por... Read More about Astronomical Time Scale for the Mesozoic.

Cyclostratigraphy and Astrochronology in 2018 (2018)
Book Chapter
Hinnov, L. A. (2018). Cyclostratigraphy and Astrochronology in 2018. In M. Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (1-80). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2018.08.004

After more than a century of doubt and equivocation, cyclostratigraphy – the stratigraphic record of astronomically forced paleoclimatic change – has come to be widely accepted in the geosciences. Cyclostratigraphy depicts a paleoclimate system that... Read More about Cyclostratigraphy and Astrochronology in 2018.

Muschelkalk Ramp Cycles Revisited (2018)
Book Chapter

Anisian Muschelkalk ramp cycles are well documented from the northwestern Tethys shelf and its northern Peri-Tethys Basin by detailed studies in Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, and Hungary. High-resolution correlation based on cyclostratigraphy has... Read More about Muschelkalk Ramp Cycles Revisited.

Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (357-383). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2018.08.006

The Pabdeh Formation in the Zagros Basin, Iran, records cyclic pelagic sedimentation from the middle Paleocene to the middle Eocene in a Tethyan setting. The cyclic successions consist of deeper-water pelagic to hemipelagic shale, marl (stone) and li...

Montenari (Ed.), Stratigraphy & Timescales (189-218). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/bs.sats.2018.08.002

Eccentricity cycles often exert a strong influence on sedimentary series, while they only have weak powers in the insolation series. Three case studies previously published in Early Cretaceous hemipelagic marl-limestone alternations of the Tethyan ar...
