It Works For Me: Shared Tips For Teaching, Charlie Sweet, Hal Blythe
It Works For Me: Shared Tips For Teaching, Charlie Sweet, Hal Blythe
Hal Blythe
Why bother to read yet another book about teaching? What can you possibly gain that will prepare you to meet those daily moments of truth? Perhaps this book's title suggests the answer. It Works for Me: Shared Tips for Teaching is not a treatise on pedagogical theory, nor is it designed to dictate a set of rules for success in the classroom. Its purpose is not to provide you with a complete program for better teaching. It Works for Me is simply a collection of practical tips drawn from the real-life experiences of some outstanding college teachers across the disciplines. …

Chicago's Southeast Side, Dominic Pacyga, Rod Sellers
Chicago's Southeast Side, Dominic Pacyga, Rod Sellers
Dominic Pacyga
Steel and the steel industry are the backbone of Chicago's southeast side, an often overlooked neighborhood with a rich ethnic heritage. Bolstered by the prosperous steel industry, the community attracted numerous, strong-willed people with a desire to work from distinct cultural backgrounds. In recent years, the vitality of the steel industry has diminished. Chicago's Southeast Side displays many rare and interesting pictures that capture the spirit of the community when the steel industry was a vibrant force. Although annexed in 1889 by the city of Chicago, the community has maintained its own identity through the years. In an attempt to …
Bioethics For Clinicians: 16. Dealing With Demands For Inappropriate Treatment, Charles Weijer, Peter Singer, Bernard Dickens, Stephen Workman
Bioethics For Clinicians: 16. Dealing With Demands For Inappropriate Treatment, Charles Weijer, Peter Singer, Bernard Dickens, Stephen Workman
Charles Weijer
Demands by Patients or their Families for treatment thought to be inappropriate by health care providers constitute an important set of moral problems in clinical practice. A variety of approaches to such cases have been described in the literature, including medical futility, standard of care and negotiation. Medical futility fails because it confounds morally distinct cases: demand for an ineffective treatment and demand for an effective treatment that supports a controversial end (e.g., permanent unconsciousness). Medical futility is not necessary in the first case and is harmful in the second. Ineffective treatment falls outside the standard of care, and thus …

Gender And Modernity In Transnational Perspective: Hugo Münsterberg And The American Woman, Rena Sanderson
Irene (Rena) M. Sanderson
In one of the first and best-known collections of cultural criticism in America, Civilization in the United States (1922), Harold Stearns begins his chapter on “The Intellectual Life” with this widely quoted passage:
When Professor Einstein roused the ire of the women's clubs by stating that “women dominate the entire life of America,” and that “there are cities with a million population, but cities suffering from terrible poverty – the poverty of intellectual things,” he was but repeating a criticism of our life now old enough to be almost a cliché. Hardly any intelligent foreigner has failed to observe …

Star-Crossed Love: Spheres Of Reality In Ruiz De Alarcón’S La Verdad Sospechosa, Carolyn Nadeau
Carolyn A Nadeau
From Google Books: The NEH Institute, directed by Frederick A. de Armas, was created to study Spanish drama from 1580-1680 from the perspective of Greek and Roman mythology, and their Renaissance metamorphoses. The book seeks to develop the link between mythology and the comedia through a number of approaches, including the use of astrology, cartomancy, Lacanian psychoanalysis, and Santayana's poetics.

Assessing The Interpretation Of Criteria For Clinical Trial Eligibility: A Survey Of Oncology Investigators, Charles Weijer, Benjamin Freedman, Stanley Shapiro, Abraham Fuks, Myriam Skrutkowska, Maria Sigurjonsdottir
Charles Weijer
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether eligibility criteria that exclude the elderly, persons with psychiatric disease, and persons with substance abuse problems from participation in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are subjective and hence a source of variability in enrolment decisions and investigator uncertainty.
DESIGN: Survey questionnaire.
PARTICIPANTS: Cancer investigators from the United States and Canada.
INTERVENTIONS: Investigators were presented with clinical vignettes from 3 patient categories--eligible, ineligible and uncertain--for each of 5 eligibility criteria--3 subjective and 2 objective--and were asked whether they would enrol the patient in a trial and how sure they were of this decision. Demographic characteristics of the investigators …

A Study In Contrasts: Eligibility Criteria In A Twenty-Year Sample Of Nsabp And Pog Clinical Trials, Abraham Fuks, Charles Weijer, Benjamin Freedman, Stanley Shapiro, Myriam Skrutkowska, Amina Riaz
Charles Weijer
We studied changes in eligibility criteria--the largest impediment to patient accrual--in two samples of clinical trials. Trials from the NSABP (National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Program) and POG (Pediatric Oncology Group) were analyzed. After eliminating duplications, the criteria in each protocol were enumerated and classified according to a novel schema. NSABP trials contained significantly more criteria than POG trials, and added precision criteria (making study populations homogeneous) at a faster rate than POG studies. The difference between NSABP studies (explanatory trials) and POG studies (pragmatic trials) suggest that large numbers of eligibility criteria are not necessary for quality studies. …
