"In this gorgeous, aspirational work, Burns, editor-in-chief of Kinfolk magazine, collects 'stories about nature as nourishment' along with photographs from homes across the globe to inspire people to bring more nature into their own abodes. . . . Expertly evoking a mood of understated luxury, this stunning spread will have design junkies drooling." -Publishers Weekly A gardener with a secret oasis on a Parisian rooftop. An artist making faux flowers to brighten Manhattan apartments. A family of ranchers rewilding the American outback. Anchored around the idea of nature as nourishment, The Kinfolk Garden explores lush gardens and plant filled homes around the world and introduces the inspiring people who coax them into bloom. Through visits to friends old and new, the Kinfolk team learns the secrets to a good garden, and what good a garden can do for our self-care, creativity and communities. Though many of the people we meet along the way champion the idea of following natural instincts rather than a set of prescriptive garden rules, there are practical tips throughout the book that offer advice on everything from growing your own produce to foraging for artful arrangements to simply keeping your houseplants alive a little longer than usual.The Kinfolk Garden is an invitation to engage with nature-to care for it, create with its beauty and cultivate new relationships around it-and offers inspiration and guidance to anyone looking to bring a little more greenery into their life.

Ranging from the deceptively simple to the surreal to the perennially stylish, this collection of originally commissioned photography captures the arc of an artistic adventure, a creative community at work, and in the process illuminates one of the most enigmatic aesthetics of the era.

The implementation of management accounting change constitutes much more than the selection of what may be perceived as being 'optimal' accounting systems and techniques, followed by a 'technical' process of implementation. Selecting and implementing the 'right' accounting systems and techniques and the technical aspects of implementation are important, but change implementation and change management also involves important behavioural and cultural issues that must be understood and addressed. The main focus of "The Challenge of Management Accounting Change" is on understanding the processes involved in the implementation of management accounting change and the complexities of, and difficulties involved in, changing management accounting systems, techniques and roles in the UK. This book outlines a framework for interpreting and understanding management accounting change as an on-going process and a range of case studies are used to illustrate both successful and unsuccessful implementations, drawing out the various lessons that can be learned and suggesting some pointers for those embarking on a programme of management accounting change.It describes the finding of a research project investigating management accounting change in the UK. It focuses on the difficulties involved in changing management accounting systems. It is written by experts in the field of management accounting.

Contemporary Japanese American and Mexican American Poets examines how contemporary Japanese American and Mexican American poets imagine their past, present, and future through shared aesthetics. Their poems explore topics surrounding immigration, internment, and racialization, as part of understanding intertwining strategies of exclusion both communities have faced. Their poetry forms new counternarratives that simultaneously critique the injustices of the past and leave room for imagining radically new futures free from those injustices. The authors argue that the similarity between Japanese American poetry and Mexican American poetry is evidence of an implied lyrical solidarity: poetic manifestations of an interminority awareness of unexpectedly shared histories and of the imaginative possibilities of thinking through and past them. This lyrical solidarity is traced from origins of Asian American and Latinx movements in the 1960s and 1970s and move up to the present moment to pinpoint some commonalities of poetic expression in the work of major poets, ranging from foundational luminaries such as Rodolfo "e;Corky"e; Gonzales, Toyo Suyemoto, Juan Felipe Herrera, and Lawson Fusao Inada to more contemporary figures such as Ariana Brown, Kimiko Hahn, Ana Castillo, David Mura, and Ada Limon. This book on multiethnic comparative poetics is primarily aimed for scholars, researchers, and postgraduates in lyric poetry and comparative literature, as well as ethnic studies and diasporic studies.
