The Force of Language illustrates how the philosophy of Language,
if differently conceived, can directly incorporate questions of
political thought and of emotionality, and offers the practical
case of defensive strategies against the abusive speech. This
follows a broad consideration of the inner voice or inner speech as
a test case for a new approach to language, in particular as a way
of radically rethinking the usual contrast between inner and outer
through furnishing an account of how we internalize speech. The
book's core offers a substantial critique of orthodox approaches to
the philosophy of language form Chomsky and others; drawing on
European political thought from Marx to Deleuze, it will move
beyond this inheritance to explain and demonstrate its fresh
conception of language at work.
The central role that bureaucracy plays in the policy process is
played by individuals, namely, by subject matter experts and
managers we call political executives. These executives do not play
their role in a vacuum, of course, but in a context defined by
three key forces-the organizational environment of bureaucracy
itself; our governing philosophy stressing responsiveness, respect
for individual rights, and accountability; and the demands of the
people and the institutions those people have created to govern
themselves. This book explores how these three forces collide and
how the resulting collision shapes the way in which bureaucracy
makes policy, as well as the final product of that policy making
process. It provides an in-depth look at each of these forces, with
chapters specifically devoted to how bureaucrats interpret their
role in the policy process, how the organizational environment
influences their ability to play that role, and, most of all, to
the interactions between bureaucrats and the institutions of what
we call the Constitutional government: the President, the Congress,
and the courts. It does this, all the while reminding us that
fitting bureaucracy into a society that views itself as
self-governing is no easy task.

Since the 1980s, Oregon-based art collectors George and Colleen
Hoyt have amassed one of the finest private collections of
Northwest Coast art in the United States. Transformations traces
the history of contemporary Northwest Coast Native art since the
1950s. Included are works by some of the region's foremost Native
artists of the past half century, including Robert Davidson, Doug
Cranmer, Beau Dick, and Susan Point. The collection of over six
hundred prints and carvings by over one hundred artists is a
promised gift from George and Colleen Hoyt to the Hallie Ford
Museum of Art. Richly illustrated with color photographs, the book
features a foreword by John Olbrantz, an essay by Rebecca J.
Dobkins, and artist biographies by Tasia Riley. Exhibition dates:
Hallie Ford Museum of Art, September 17-December 17, 2022
"What is going to happen to me?" Most patients ask this question
during a clinical encounter with a health professional. As well as
learning what problem they have (diagnosis) and what needs to be
done about it (treatment), patients want to know about their future
health and wellbeing (prognosis). Prognosis research can provide
answers to this question and satisfy the need for individuals to
understand the possible outcomes of their condition, with and
without treatment. Central to modern medical practise, the topic of
prognosis is the basis of decision making in healthcare and policy
development. It translates basic and clinical science into
practical care for patients and populations. Prognosis Research in
Healthcare: Concepts, Methods and Impact provides a comprehensive
overview of the field of prognosis and prognosis research and gives
a global perspective on how prognosis research and prognostic
information can improve the outcomes of healthcare. It details how
to design, carry out, analyse and report prognosis studies, and how
prognostic information can be the basis for tailored, personalised
healthcare. In particular, the book discusses how information about
the characteristics of people, their health, and environment can be
used to predict an individual's future health. Prognosis Research
in Healthcare: Concepts, Methods and Impact, addresses all types of
prognosis research and provides a practical step-by-step guide to
undertaking and interpreting prognosis research studies, ideal for
medical students, health researchers, healthcare professionals and
methodologists, as well as for guideline and policy makers in
healthcare wishing to learn more about the field of prognosis.
