Cleansing the City: Sanitary Geographies in Victorian London explores not only the challenges faced by reformers as they strove to clean up an increasingly filthy city but the resistance to their efforts.

Focusing on the critical issue of student engagement, this book presents an evidence-based framework for enhancing engagement among young adolescents. It introduces the Young Adolescent Engagement in Learning Model, which addresses behavioral, emotional, and cognitive dimensions of engagement. The authors offer targeted strategies to support educators in fostering a continuum of pedagogical, curricular, and social support. By emphasizing the prevention of educational disengagement, particularly for vulnerable students, this work serves as a valuable resource for educators and scholars in the field.
