Winner of the T. S. Eliot Prize 2020. Poetry Book Society Choice, Summer 2020. Bhanu Kapil’s extraordinary and original work has been published in the US over the last two decades. During that time Kapil has established herself as one of our most important and ethical writers. Her books often defy categorisation as she fearlessly engages with colonialism and its ongoing and devastating aftermath, creating what she calls in Ban en Banlieue (2015) a ‘Literature that is not made from literature’. Always at the centre of her books and performances are the experiences of the body, and, whether she is exploring racism, violence, the experiences of diaspora communities in India, England or America, what emerges is a heart-stopping, life-affirming way of telling the near impossible-to-be-told. How To Wash A Heart, Kapil's first full-length collection published in the UK, depicts the complex relations that emerge between an immigrant guest and a citizen host. Drawn from a first performance at the ICA in London in 2019, and using poetry as a mode of interrogation that is both rigorous, compassionate, surreal, comic, painful and tender, by turn, Kapil begins to ask difficult and urgent questions about the limits of inclusion, hospitality and care.

An exploration of the relationship between hydrotherapy and the women who took the cure.

A study of innovation at the company level (rather than the project level) that presents case studies from a range of Dutch firms in the service and manufacturing sectors. Cobbenhagen (U. of Maastricht) found that a combination of organizational, technological, and marketing competencies is a better predictor of innovative success than any single competency alone; that a comparative weakness in one of the competencies can be offset by a strong position in the others; and that successfully innovating companies tend to take a holistic view of business management. Appendices include specific do's and don't's for companies as well as implications for policy makers. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR
