Through critical engagements with contemporary theories of class and cultural critique, the book questions the inherited dogma that underlies both liberal and conservative and also social democraticapproaches to teaching and makes a spirited case for teaching as a critical and revolutionary act.
This book's main goal is to examine the concept of residential care
from a psychological perspective. The chapter authors espouse a
psychological approach to long-term residential care and an effort
is made throughout the text to present a model of care that
encompasses the whole individual. Since psychologists are being
increasingly asked to provide consultation to long-term residential
care facilities, the need for psychologically-based care models has
become apparent. This text offers assistance in developing and
maintaining residential care environments that maximize quality of
life and personal well-being in the presence of declining physical
and emotional resources that are associated with the vicissitudes
of living into advanced aging.
"Compiles nearly 400 fully assigned NMR spectra of approximately 300 polymers and polymer additives, representing all major clases of materials: polyolefins, styrenics, acrylates, methacrylates, vinyl polymers, elastomers, polyethers, polyesters, polymides, silicones, cellulosics, polyurethanes, plasticizers, and antioxidants."
The first Democratic president for twelve years, William Jefferson Clinton--the "Man from Hope"--faced what looked like a fresh opportunity to move ahead with legislation. The years of "gridlock," whereby a president of one political party faced a Congress dominated by another, were over. After November 1994, when the Republicans gained control of both chambers of Congress, the years of gridlock and confrontation seemed set to return with a vengeance. The essays in this volume explore the Clinton presidency and examine the wide fluctuations in the president's popularity and achievements.
Diabetic Neurology offers a unique focus on the broad neurological complications of diabetes, bridging the clinical divide between diabetology and neurology with a practitioner-friendly guide for the recognition, investigation and management of diabetic patients with neurological disease. This book provides a comprehensive, practical review of the problems encountered at the interface of diabetes and neurology. The point form format facilitates a thorough summary of the diabetological and neurological approach to patients and their related disease states. The authors of this book bring together their expertise in these shared fields to address the problems neurologists may encounter in diabetic patients and the important neurological issues to consider in diabetes clinics. The emphasis is on adult patients and some topics are deliberately covered in more than one section, depending on the context of the discussion. The book's three sections provide: * An overview of diabetes care directed towards neurologists and of neurological basics directed towards diabetologists * A summary of various neurological presentations, both common and serious, which both specialties must be cognizant of * A discussion of rare conditions, their neurological and diabetic complications This book is a comprehensive and useful reference for diabetologists, endocrinologists, internists and neurologists.
Cognitive deficits are part of the normal ageing process and are exacerbated by various diseases that affect adults in old age, such as dementia, depression, and stroke. A significant scientific and social effort has been expended to evaluate whether cognitive deficits can be remedied through systematic interventions. The editors, as well as the chapter authors, represent a variety of viewpoints that span theory as well as practice. Overall, they aim to address concepts in cognitive rehabilitation that are useful in intervention research -- research which examines problems and issues in normal and pathological aging -- and focusing on the application of cognitive training strategies in natural settings. Thus, the book is grounded in contemporary theory in cognitive ageing and is applicable to both the practicing clinician as well as the researcher. It is organized into four sections. The first highlights prominent theoretical principles; the second looks at cognitive rehabilitation strategies in normal ageing; the third examines the interplay between lifestyle patterns and cognitive function through applying a broad definition of lifestyle choices; and the fourth focuses on rehabilitation strategies that address issues in pathological (or diseased) ageing.
African American Theater is a vibrant and unique entity enriched by ancient Egyptian rituals, West African folklore, and European theatrical practices. A continuum of African folk traditions, it combines storytelling, mythology, rituals, music, song, and dance with ancestor worship from ancient times to the present. It afforded black artists a cultural gold mine to celebrate what it was like to be an African American in The New World. The Historical Dictionary of African American Theater celebrates nearly 200 years of black theater in the United States, identifying representative African American theater-producing organizations and chronicling their contributions to the field from its birth in 1816 to the present. This is done through a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and over 500 cross-referenced dictionary entries on actors, directors, playwrights, plays, theater producing organizations, themes, locations, and theater movements and awards.

Few issues concerning religious freedom provoke so much controversy and debate as the extent to which religious symbols should be protected in the public sphere and the workplace. This book provides the first sustained philosophical analysis of the concepts at issue in this debate, as well as covering all the major recent cases brought under Article 9 of the European Convention of Human Rights, including the landmark judgment Eweida v UK. In particular, it gives a clear presentation of the current state of the case-law, grounding it, in a unique contribution to the debate, in an investigation of its philosophical underpinnings. Particular attention is paid to different functions of the symbol and their theoretical background, with new emphasis on the role of the symbol in bearing witness to faith. This book will open up new vistas for philosophers of religion and legal theorists alike.
