This book offers new arguments for determinism. It draws novel and surprising consequences from determinism for our attitudes toward such things as death, regret, grief, and the meaning of life. The book argues that rationalism is the right attitude to take toward reality. It then shows that rationalism implies determinism and that determinism has surprising and far-reaching consequences. The author contends that the existence of all of humanity almost certainly depends on the precise time and manner of your death and mine; that purely retrospective regret, relief, gratitude, and grief are irrational for all but those who hold extreme values; and that everyone’s life has an unending impact on the future and thereby achieves the strongest kind of meaning that it makes sense to desire. Written in a direct and accessible style, Determinism, Death, and Meaning will be of interest to researchers and advanced students working in metaphysics, philosophy of religion, and value theory, as well as general readers with a serious interest in these topics.

This practical guide is designed to support international foundation year (IFY) teachers, leaders, and managers through all of the key academic aspects of IFY provision from an English for Academic Purposes (EAP) perspective. This book balances recent pedagogy with practical advice on areas such as academic culture, personal tutoring, managing IFY, assessment, syllabus design, materials development, and student autonomy. Designed for busy teachers, this book provides examples of teaching materials and syllabus design that can be used as templates and chapters can be read in isolation or consulted by section as needed. Each chapter identifies the relevant The British Assoication of Lecturers in English for Academic Purposes (BALEAP) competencies addressed within it, allowing readers to consult according to need or interest, and are designed to be revisited. There are questions for discussion at the end of each chapter which provide reflection for a team or an individual working alone. Focusing on the practical aspects of delivering an IFY, Teaching International Foundation Year is a must-read for anyone involved in IFY language and study skills provision.
