Hendry, R. (2004). ‘The physicists, the chemists and the pragmatics of explanation’. Philosophy of Science, 71(5), 1048-1059. https://doi.org/10.1086/428009

In this paper I investigate two views of theoretical explanation in quantum chemistry, advocated by John Clarke Slater and Charles Coulson. Slater argued for quantum-mechanical rigor, and the primacy of fundamental principles in models of chemical bo... Read More about ‘The physicists, the chemists and the pragmatics of explanation’.

The Cenozoic uplift and earthquake belt of mainland Britain as a response to an Underlying hot, low-density upper mantle (2004)
Journal Article
Bott, M., & Bott., J. (2004). The Cenozoic uplift and earthquake belt of mainland Britain as a response to an Underlying hot, low-density upper mantle. Journal of the Geological Society, 161(1), 19-29. https://doi.org/10.1144/0016-764903-014

A belt of hot, low-density uppermost mantle underlying mainland Britain down to at least 200 km depth, revealed by seismic tomography, may be the prime cause of the Cenozoic uplift and exhumation. We use finite-element modelling to demonstrate how is... Read More about The Cenozoic uplift and earthquake belt of mainland Britain as a response to an Underlying hot, low-density upper mantle.

'Looking alright, feeling alright': emotions, sizing and the geographies of women's experiences of clothing consumption (2004)
Journal Article

Recent work within geographies of consumption has focused on the practices of consumption as a means to find out 'what people do when they go shopping'. This paper argues that few of these accounts of consumption have considered the significance of e...

Amid the globalization of economic life and a myriad of powerful challenges to Westphalian traditions of political statehood, it is now routinely contended that regions are 'in resurgence'. Nonetheless, much of the debate on this purported regional r... Read More about Regional spaces, spaces of regionalism: territory, insurgent politics and the English question.
