Educational leadership relationally : a theory and methodology for educationa…
Educational leadership, management and administration has a rich history of epistemological and ontological dialogue and debate. However in recent times, at least since the publication of Colin Evers and Gabriele Lakomski's trilogy -- knowing, exploring and doing educational administration -- there has been a distinct dearth. Educational Leadership Relationally explicitly returns matters of epi…

Jacobi Forms, Finite Quadratic Modules and Weil Representations over Number F…
The new theory of Jacobi forms over totally real number fields introduced in this monograph is expected to give further insight into the arithmetic theory of Hilbert modular forms, its L-series, and into elliptic curves over number fields. This work is inspired by the classical theory of Jacobi forms over the rational numbers, which is an indispensable tool in the arithmetic theory of elliptic …
