diverse talent pool; incorporate intersectional identities in an
inclusive classroom; implement more equitable assessment practices;
build resilience and equity through chess; advance equity in early
childhood programs; abolish a culture of competition and work
toward a culture of cooperation; and increase stakeholder
commitment to racial equity. Appropriate for K-12 educators at all

building, and community.
This book, first published in 1987, contains a collection of papers
presented at the 18th Binghamton Symposium, focusing on the topic
of catastrophic flooding. These papers make the case for the
careful collection and interpretation of data from which the
importance and effects of catastrophic flooding may be deduced.
Questions tackled include: what are the causes and effects of
catastrophic flooding? What parameters should be used to measure
them? What effect do they have on erosional and depositional
landforms? Can modelling be used to predict their flow dynamics?

The two volumes included in Antimicrobial Drug Resistance, Second
Edition is an updated, comprehensive and multidisciplinary
reference covering the area of antimicrobial drug resistance in
bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites from basic science,
clinical, and epidemiological perspectives. This newly revised
compendium reviews the most current research and development on
drug resistance while still providing the information in the
accessible format of the first edition. The first volume,
Antimicrobial Drug Resistance: Mechanisms of Drug Resistance, is
dedicated to the biological basis of drug resistance and effective
avenues for drug development. With the emergence of more
drug-resistant organisms, the approach to dealing with the drug
resistance problem must include the research of different aspects
of the mechanisms of bacterial resistance and the dissemination of
resistance genes as well as research utilizing new genomic
information. These approaches will permit the design of novel
strategies to develop new antibiotics and preserve the
effectiveness of those currently available. The second volume,
Antimicrobial Drug Resistance: Clinical and Epidemiological
Aspects, is devoted to the clinical aspects of drug resistance.
Although there is evidence that restricted use of a specific
antibiotic can be followed by a decrease in drug resistance to that
agent, drug resistance control is not easily achieved. Thus, the
infectious diseases physician requires input from the clinical
microbiologist, antimicrobial stewardship personnel, and infection
control specialist to make informed choices for the effective
management of various strains of drug-resistant pathogens in
individual patients. This 2-volume set is an important reference
for students in microbiology, infectious diseases physicians,
medical students, basic scientists, drug development researchers,
microbiologists, epidemiologists, and public health practitioners.

This book is concerned with changes in the social structures,
demographics, and issues in Western democracies along with the
impact of those changes on party systems and policy outcomes. Three
countries - the United States, the Netherlands, and Belgium - are
examined to determine how they accommodate these changes. The
United States is investigated as an example of a stable
consolidated party system, the Netherlands is included as a
representative fragmented parliamentary regime, and Belgium is an
extreme example of a sub-culture alienated from the rest of the
country. The conflict between the representation function and the
function of forming a majority able to govern is stressed.
DESIGN and PLANNING of Research and Clinical LABORATORY FACILITIES In this primer/professional reference, Leonard Mayer demystifies one of the most complex architectural specialties. An architect with more than thirty-three years' experience as a master planner and programmer of laboratories and clinical facilities, Mr. Mayer offers a comprehensive overview of the fundamental issues related to laboratory planning and design. He also provides designers with a clear and rational framework through which to approach this highly challenging and rewarding design specialty. A superb learning tool for students and professionals just getting started in lab design and a valuable one-volume reference for the experienced professional, Design and Planning of Research and Clinical Laboratory Facilities features: - Step-by-step guidance through the complex maze of codes, specifications, standards, and official guidelines, relating to the planning, design, and construction processes
- New and updated design criteria based on the most recent laws and regulations
- Master plans, facility programs, functional programs and requirements programs for a wide variety of scientific and medical disciplines and support facilities
- Comprehensive lists of relevant codes, regulations, standards, guidelines, and important architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing criteria
Research and clinical laboratory facilities are, perhaps, the most complex structures to plan and design. Intimidated by a vast and seemingly impenetrable body of codes, regulations, and design criteria pertaining to lab design and construction, many architects, unfortunately, choose to avoid what can be one of the most profitable and professionally rewarding areas of specialization. Written by an architect with more than thirty-three years of experience as a master planner and programmer of laboratories and clinical facilities, this book demystifies the process of laboratory planning and design. It provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamental issues related to laboratory design and offers readers detailed, step-by-step guidance through the complex maze of design specifications and codes, standards, and official guidelines that must be addressed during the programming, planning, design, and construction process. Focusing mainly on laboratory programming, planning, and design criteria for "wet" laboratory environments, Leonard Mayer provides examples from numerous master plans, facility programs, functional programs and requirements programs applicable to a wide variety of scientific and medical disciplines, and related facilities. Related functions and activities include administrative offices, computer centers, core service and support, building services facilities, and more. He presents new and updated design criteria based on recent laws and regulations and supplies readers with comprehensive lists of relevant codes, regulations, standards, guidelines, and architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing criteria. Design and Planning of Research and Clinical Laboratory Facilities is an excellent primer for architecture students and newcomers to the field, as well as an indispensable single-volume reference for experienced professionals. It is also an invaluable resource for researchers and investigators, facility planners and managers, plant engineers, and all others involved with the design, construction, maintenance, and administration of laboratory facilities.
Die hier nur kurz und skizzenhaft angedeuteten notwendigen
Vorarbeiten haben ffir den Psychotherapeuten ihren bestimmten Sinn
und Wert: das Chaos der Angaben des Patienten wird dadurch
gesichtet; es ergeben sich Erkenntnisse, aus denen das Bild der
Krankheit und ihrer Ursachen zusammengefugt werden kann, urn daraus
mehr oder weniger intuitiv die richtige Diagnose zu stellen und die
richtige Behand lung einzuleiten. In der Hypnoseerfolgt dann
schlieBlich die Zusammenfassung dieser vorher be schaff ten
Befunde, da sich hier auch die Beziehungen zwischen dem Seelischen
und dem Motorischen bedeutend klarer und plastischer herausarbeiten
lassen, als im Zu stand des WachbewuBtseins. Wir haben bei unseren
Versuchen gerade diese Tatsache immer wieder beweisen kOnnen und
diesen Beweis damit begriindet, daB in der Hyp nose viele der sonst
wirksamen Hemmungen ausgeschaltet werden kOnnen. Die See lenlage
des Patienten, die ganze Skala seiner Stimmungen offenbart sich dem
Hyp notiseur, der daraus zugleich ersehen kann, bis zu welcnem
Grade die Suggestionen oder Autosuggestionen plastisch verarbeitet
worden sind. So wird man z. B. nur dann von einer Tiefenhypnose
sprechen durfen, wenn die Suggestionen zur Formung geistiger Bilder
und Vorstellungen fiihren und diese auch kOrperlich zu
manifestieren vermOgen. Die Kenntnis dieser Vorgiinge ist ffir uns
ein wichtiges Hilfsmittel, urn Erfahrun gen zu sammein, die im
Krankheitsbild sonst meist nur in verschleierter Fom sicht bar
werden. StOrungen kOnnen in der Hypnose ausgeschaltet,
autosuggestive Vor stellungen abgelenkt, seelische und kOrperliche
Ausgleichsversuche sowie sonstige unangenehme Nebenerscheinungen
vermieden werden.
Thomas Cole's influence after his death, through both the finished
and unfinished paintings that remained in his self-designed studio,
was truly profound. This book brings new understanding to Cole's
last paintings and how they affected later artists. Written by one
of the foremost American art historians, it examines the artist's
ambition to create paintings that expressed complex and elevated
meanings. Images of works not seen for many years will illustrate
Cole's intentions and influence.
