Culture, Ethics, and Advance Care Planning - Alissa Swota - Bog - Lexington Books - Plusbog.dk

Culture, Ethics, and Advance Care Planning - Alissa Swota - Bog - Lexington Books - Plusbog.dk

Set against a backdrop of cultural diversity, the current emphasis on advance care planning, both in the United States and abroad, necessitates a sourcebook on how to navigate such complex terrain. This book will serve as a guide to best practice for advance care planning in a multicultural society. Such a guide will help those trying to engage in the often delicate discussions that take place during advance care planning to do so in a culturally sensitive manner. In addition, the book will provide general guidance in discussing difficult issues in a multicultural clinical setting. Given how entrenched advance care planning is in the medical context, to not attempt to engage in the process in a culturally sensitive way smacks of a dangerous indifference and sets the stage for conflict where calm could exist. In the fast-paced world of clinical medicine, recognizing and acknowledging differences in worldviews is often overlooked. When dealing with the delicate issues broached in advance care planning, such oversights can lead to deep rifts within the health care provider-patient relationship. This damage can be irreparable. By providing guidance to those engaged in such endeavors and setting advance care planning in a global context, health care practitioners will be better able to care for their patients and achieve the noble goal of advance care planning_giving volume to the voice of the patient in the last chapter of her life.

To Advance the Race - Linda M. Perkins - Bog - University of Illinois Press - Plusbog.dk

To Advance the Race - Linda M. Perkins - Bog - University of Illinois Press - Plusbog.dk

From the United States'' earliest days, African Americans considered education essential for their freedom and progress. Linda M. Perkins’s study ranges across educational and geographical settings to tell the stories of Black women and girls as students, professors, and administrators. Beginning with early efforts and the establishment of abolitionist colleges, Perkins follows the history of Black women''s post–Civil War experiences at elite white schools and public universities in northern and midwestern states. Their presence in Black institutions like Howard University marked another advancement, as did Black women becoming professors and administrators. But such progress intersected with race and education in the postwar era. As gender questions sparked conflict between educated Black women and Black men, it forced the former to contend with traditional notions of women’s roles even as the 1960s opened educational opportunities for all African Americans. A first of its kind history, To Advance the Race is an enlightening look at African American women and their multi-generational commitment to the ideal of education as a collective achievement.

Advance Numerical Techniques to Solve Linear and Nonlinear Differential Equations - - Bog - River Publishers - Plusbog.dk

Advance Numerical Techniques to Solve Linear and Nonlinear Differential Equations - - Bog - River Publishers - Plusbog.dk

Real-world issues can be translated into the language and concepts of mathematics with the use of mathematical models. Models guided by differential equations with intuitive solutions can be used throughout engineering and the sciences. Almost any changing system may be described by a set of differential equations. They may be found just about anywhere you look in fields including physics, engineering, economics, sociology, biology, business, healthcare, etc. The nature of these equations has been investigated by several mathematicians over the course of hundreds of years and, consequently, numerous effective methods for solving them have been created. It is often impractical to find a purely analytical solution to a system described by a differential equation because either the system itself is too complex or the system being described is too vast. Numerical approaches and computer simulations are especially helpful in such systems. The content provided in this book involves real-world examples, explores research challenges in numerical treatment, and demonstrates how to create new numerical methods for resolving problems. Theories and practical applications in the sciences and engineering are also discussed. Students of engineering and applied mathematics, as well as researchers and engineers who use computers to solve problems numerically or oversee those who do, will find this book focusing on advance numerical techniques to solve linear and nonlinear differential equations useful.

Stagecraft and Statecraft - Dan Schill - Bog - Lexington Books - Plusbog.dk

Stagecraft and Statecraft - Dan Schill - Bog - Lexington Books - Plusbog.dk

Media events are a central communication tactic used by political communicators in political campaigns and in governmental affairs. Each president has an advance staff that creates mediagenic events to influence the news media, generate coverage and excitement, construct favorable political images, and persuade voters. Advance men and women are visual speechwriters who focus not only on what the politician says, but also on how the candidate looks and the visual message communicated by the event. This timely and groundbreaking work examines media events and advance in political communication by exploring: (1) how media events are conceived and staged, (2) the role of advance in an overall communication strategy, (3) how media events holistically function to generate a rhetorical impact, and (4) the implications of politically communicating by media event. This book gives readers the tools and background necessary to both analyze and understand media events and to create their own. Media events and advance are a significant element of political communication that has not been systematically or comprehensively studied, and Schill''s innovative work ably fills this major gap in the literature.

What is Truth? - Edo Pivcevic - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

What is Truth? - Edo Pivcevic - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

First published in 1997, this volume advances the view that the nature of truth, in so far as truth has a ‘nature’, lies in the manner of its occurrence. Edo Pivčevicì argues that truth is an vent, i.e. it does not exist until it occurs, and survives only as long as the requisite conditions for its occurrence are in place. Positing that language sets traps for the unwary, Pivčevicì states that calling ‘x’ true involves a property ascription does so only in the sense that ‘x’ enters into truth and is part of a ‘truth event’.
